-War on Police-
Giuliani: Uniformed Police Officers Not Allowed on Democratic Convention Floor
[BREITBART] Thursday on Fox News Channel’s "Fox & Friends," in an appearance from the site of the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani called the convention "the most anti-police" and "the most anti-law enforcement" he had ever seen.

However,
today is that tomorrow you were thinking about yesterday...
he also said that according to "high-ranking coppers" in Philadelphia, uniformed law enforcement was not allowed on the floor of the convention.

"This is the most anti-police, anti-law enforcement convention I’ve ever seen in my whole life. There was not a uniformed police officer allowed on the convention floor. I was told that by four high-ranking coppers, two of whom I’ve known for a very long time. And then I walked the floor for very long time and I couldn’t find a single officer. Go look at your footage. You find me a uniform. Hillary Clinton
... sometimes described as The Heroine of Tuzla and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another Richelieu ...
didn’t want uniformed coppers on the convention floor."

#11  Sadly, this POS will talk after the Presidency with even more abandon than before, just as long as he feels the adulation he has come to expect. When it fades, his petulant behavior will lead him to very bad choices.....

#13  He's speeches will turn out like this after January.

"And as you graduate, I am reminded of my first steps outside of my dorm, near my Presidential Library, which I highly recommend you visit, which enabled me to appreciate the struggles a black man such as myself went through."

Obama’s DNC letdown: The president needed to hit it out of the park, but he surprisingly fell short

#1  Ah, Amanda Marcotte. Her work always falls unsurprisingly short.

#2  It’s hard to put a thesis statement into Barack Obama’s speech. He roamed around hat tipping Black Lives Matter....

I believe I have located the 'thesis.'

#3  I channel, for a moment, Stacy McCain:

Question: how do you best demonstrate Amanda Marcotte to be a blithering idiot?

Answer: quote her.

Pelosi says Clinton struggles with white male vote because of 'guns, gays and God'
[FOXNEWS] Donald Trump is beating Hillary Clinton
... sometimes described as America's Blond Eminence and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another William Jennings Bryan ...
among white men because guns, gays, and God, according to former House Speaker Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi
Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. Formerly Speaker of the House, but it's not her fault they lost. Really. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace...
"I think that, so many times, white -- non-college-educated white males have voted Republican. They voted against their own economic interests because of guns, because of gays, and because of God, the three G’s, God being the woman’s right to choose," Pelosi told PBS’s Judy Woodruff in an interview Wednesday.

But, Pelosi contended, that’s changing because of Clinton’s "economic agenda to create jobs, good-paying jobs, increasing paychecks."

The opposition from white males "is softening," she argued.

"Some of those people were never going to be voting Democratic anyway. But I believe that, with the turnout that we expect to have, we will draw some of them in with our message, and enough other people to win the election."

#1  Well, at least you know what GOD thinks of you. So we do not have to re-hash THAT.

#2  Whistling past the graveyard, Nan? Some recognition of their problem - if this and that and the other thing, I think we will have enough to win. I believe she's worried.

#3  An aging globe trotter, Washington political insider for over 30 years with a chronic likability problem and memory loss, partners with former boss and failed anti-American president, struggles with a non-insider business man ?

Worried? Yes, I believe so as well.

#6  Perhaps having a transgendered individual speaking at the DNC might have something to do with the white male thing...just saying there might be a connection

all men "soften" when confronted by the Beest
Posted by: Warthog || 07/29/2016 14:44 Comments || Top||

#11  She has trouble with the white male vote because white males don't vote by skin color or gender. They are all over the place and when there are multiple options available Hillary is found wanting in every possible category.
