Well, that makes almost eight hours that I’ve been working with FNC in the background. I’ve heard an awful lot on the God and Jerusalem issues even when they addressed the substantive issues.
Could it be that they’re trying to distract us from the issues they, themselves, once felt were the most important? Noooo. That can’t be. It’s very discouraging to realise that this is being passed off as journalism.

As the rest of you are getting some much merited rest, I’m watching F&F. They started by querying the impact of Clinton’s address for a couple of minutes and then – after days of saying that the main issue in this election is jobs, jobs, jobs – they spent over 10 minutes on “God” and “Jerusalem”. The teaser before the break focused on the national anthem was sung (huh?). Resumption on the “welfare to work” issue for 30 seconds, then Doocy laid that issue to rest with a strong emphasis on President Obama’s middle name only to morph smoothly back to the Jerusalem issue. Holy smoke! the DNC has backtracked on something. Ironic for supporters of the greatest flip-flopper in history.
That said, I’m appalled at how the decision to reintroduce the jerusalem issue into the democratic platform was taken. There’s no way in the inferno that anybody can claim a two-thirds majority in favour on that fourth vote. The DNC took a shameful page from the foxies. However, this again had nothing to do with jobs which the foxies themselves used to think was the most important issue.
F&F is now showing out-of-context snippets from the President’s past speeches to insinuate all sorts of things. They’ve done a great job recruiting a whole slew of DINOs, too. Forty minutes into their show (and five or six breaks) and they’re back to God and Jerusalem.
I’m starting to feel awfully sorry for the foxies. They can’t possibly be that stupid, can they?

Clinton is a master in destroying the credibility of the GOP. These frauds are really afraid of Clinton because Clinton knows how these fools operate.

Fox News and nation are both obsessed with telling people the left was “guilted” into saying God at the DNC. This article on their site actually says Romney got the ball rolling on it:

I get the feeling Bill has had these comments pent up and he’s just thrilled to have the opportunity to vent them – especially in this venue.

Bill is probably the world’s most gifted politician. Obama is a close second.

Loved his version of the Tampa meme… Obama didn’t fix the GOP mess fast enough so let us back into office to do it again.

Obama should make Bill Secretary of State when Hillary retires. Or something.

By the way, I’ve been reading Game Change (which I recommend) and it says that Bill is still cheating on Hill.
