Democratic National Convention - Part 2

Posted by Ellen -377.80pc on September 05, 2012 · Flag

Coming up: Sandra Fluke and Bill Clinton. I'll bet Fox News has its knives and guns ready to attack the moment it's over. Share your thoughts, opinions and observations in our comments thread.

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.

I’m beyond pissed that the Dems caved and put some bullshit about God and Jerusalem in the platform. God doesn’t FUCKING MATTER because God (arguably) doesn’t, and particularly isn’t supposed to exist in our political process. And, I’m sorry, but what THE FUCK bearing does quibbling over what the “true” capital of Israel is have on OUR elections? This is beyond a non-issue and a distraction, and I was happy they excluded the language; and I’m just…irate that they rolled over after the Repubs pushed them on it, and even more pissed that when a vote was taken that clearly said to NOT include them, they put the language in anyway. People think Dems are wimps, and this proved it.

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.

Bill Clinton kicked ass in his speech at the Democratic Convention. I would bet my last dollar that President Obama is re-elected.

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 think Roger’s instructions for the continued rogering of Obama.

The current group of talking heads have just the briefing room. Let’s see what roger has told them to say.

President Clinton was magnificent! What a great prelude for President Obama’s acceptance speech tomorrow.

Even Fox is praising Bill.

Hell with that ‘out of the park’ stuff. This was a moon shot.

Inspiring.

“We can’t afford to double down on trickle down.”

“Arithmetic” is going to become a popular word.

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.
