#1 Why do Democrats hate black people?

And since when is Denver in the South?

#2 Somebody in Denver is going to make a rather sizeable fortune in Denver. Smuggling in food the delegates actually *want* to eat!

#3 In promoting healthy eating habits, the Democratic guidelines say every meal should be nutritious and include 'at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, purple/blue and white.

Sounds like someone has been to a Packers Vikings game!

#4 Wait, those colors, isn't that everything but orange? Bronco orange?

And besides, the only way to eat local is fried marmot, though I hear Elk and Bear are becoming more and more available at roadside jerky stands.

What about the Orange Roughy does that count for the color scheme; the Rainbow Trout? Must not since Florida oranges don't.

Do these planners go to a restaurant and see an appealing meal and go, "How beautiful, it must be nutritious."

#5 What those Nanny Statists try on their delegates they'll have in mind for the little people they want to rule over.

#6 The goofy color-code diet plan may be from Spiritual Nutrition and the Rainbow Diet, an 80s cookbook book by New-Age whackjob Gabriel Cousens, MD:

"Kundalini (Shekhinah in Hebrew) is the inner spiritualizing energy that takes us to the experiences of non-causal ecstasy, joy, peace, Love, and God awareness. These are our natural emotions in liberation. Kundalini is Grace of God, which has the potential to transform us into the non-dualistic, holographic, living awareness of the Truth of God, of I AM THAT."

#7 AC, give me biscuits n sausage gravy, side of bacon (crisp), grits and scrambled eggs.

It will transform us into the living awareness of the Truth of Good Food, of I EAT THAT

#8 Why do the Democrats want to be everyone else's parents? They certainly take this nanny crap way too far. If people want healthy food, the market will provide healthy food. The market provides what people will buy. The answer is education, NOT preventing them from having access to anything else.

I swear the Democrats simply want to dominate every aspect of people's lives. What complete and total morons!

#9 What sucks about this is that the delegates will now spread like verim to the burbs (where I live), searching for REAL food.

#10 So I take it if one of the delegates tries to sneak outside for a smoke that they'll be shot on sight if caught?

#12 Don't forget the vendors on the 16th street mall and just across the street from the Convention Center on the south side is fried food central, unless the 'looper' or Ritter forbid the merchants on the mall that week.
Take out has gotten pretty expensive with the price of gas going up sigh.
Seafarious, nice rememberance of the junk food junkie ;) Probably quite a few in this bunch

#14 Everyone knows, "real food" is a symbol of the past, a past filled with over population, energy waste, environmental disaster and global warming. CHANGE is now upon us! With any luck, wafers will be flown in to the convention by the Soylent Corporation.

#15 Tell ya what, the hot-dog cart guys are going to make a killing at the W end of downtown. I used to go to the one at 18th and Market when I worked down near Coors Field on a contract.
