| Seedy Politicians (A.K.A. Jack Ass Party) Gears Up For Convention |
| 2012-09-03 |
| After a week of bruising broadsides on President ObamaÂ’s record by the GOP brass, Democrats have assembled a national convention this week in North Carolina they hope will give Obama a dynamic, prime-time opportunity to convince Americans he deserves another shot at running the county. Yet Obama and party leaders open the event Monday with essentially the same challenge faced at smaller campaign stops across the country -- convincing Americans that the president can indeed fix the economy and restore middle-class opportunity amid high unemployment, crushing debt and wavering support from unions and congressional Democrats. |

| #9 DNC central theme = blame the last 3 1/2 yrs of idiotic policies and abject failures on a guy that left office 3 1/2 yrs ago (because that's what real men ought to do) Obama and the rest of his ilk are total pussies. As we say in the mil - after you've been there a month - you own it. Blaming your predecessor a yr after they're gone is the height of bitchy un-manliness (no offense to the ladies). It's all about political power and none of these hacks can own their f*ckups. |

| #8 I watched the opening remarks of a panel on cspan this morning. Oh, six to eight panelists laying the basic framworking of the conventions reason to be. Nothing new...voter id, racial inequality, so forth. I did note some of the ironies. One of the the tarhealed eggheads seemed genuine about whats what, though that was likely his spot in the relay team and he tended to talk about the south instead of just North Carolina. Unemployment is a full percent above national, industry hard hit, workforce undereducated, government not doing enough. Next relay speaker started with North Carolina is in the unique position of being under total democrat control for the last twelve years. It was odd, as another speaker hinted that voter id will appear in NC because of the radical supreme court. Overall it was a bunch of chapel hill life long acedemics highlighted by the one who was apparently the only person to notice that perhaps that conference should not have been held at 11:30 on Sunday. This is the billiance people in Alabama and Texas should view, as they self proclaimed themselves masters of all issues southern. For instance they cannot seem to grasp why so many southerners do not favor the ACA, except that you are uneducated. No, what was the term, requiring post-secondary-education. So shorten their conclusion, the problem with Texas is its full of Texans. Aesthetically, bunch of know it alls failing conversational English. Knowledge drops, well they seemed baffled at the reasons why a Bangladesh and a North Carolinian are so far off $/hour wise; everything was retreaded grief lyrics. *PS I did giggle at the Mount Moredebt sand sculpture, not because of its gaudi-ness but "Inconceivable! There is no wind in Liberal Land!" |

| #2 It will be interesting to see what the ratings are for the Dem convention vs Tampa. The people who are more likely to have "cut the cord" from cable services are also those more likely to be Democrats. Comcast, for example, has lost about 3 million subscribers since 2009. |

| #1 good luck with that. All the Republicans had to do was introduce Romney as a competent caring human, which they did. After the Dems put on their grievance group clusterf*ck of a circus, the difference between the parties will become quite clear. |
