Does anyone think they can sit through MO's talk tonight? I know I can't do it--I'd destroy my own TV. But I'd really like to know what some of my fellow hooligans think of it. |

Dance Moms for me. I'd like to see the amount of money we taxpayers spent on HER swanning around on vacations up on a screen behind her. |

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/occupy-protesters-block-dnc-buses-184907071--politics.html Occupy protesters block DNC buses CHARLOTTE--On Tuesday, a group of more than 100 protesters shouting "Obama is a traitor" temporarily shut down official bus service that ferries around delegates at the Democratic National Convention. The protesters, some of whom were lying down in the street, were surrounded by Charlotte police, who used their bicycles to build a barrier around the group. "What do you think of free speech zones?" shouted one protester to the police and onlookers, referring to the cordoned off areas for activists. "Does that seem strange to you?" Protesters also shouted that accused Wikileaks source Bradley Manning should be freed. At one point, the protesters raised a tent above their heads and set it on the ground. "Bad news, guys, they've pitched a tent," a police officer joked. "They might be here for the duration." Delegates and convention-goers who were forced to wait for buses to be rerouted expressed surprise that the Occupy presence has been stronger at the DNC than the Republican convention in Tampa last week. "I didn't see them at the Republican convention," said Wandra Ashley-Williams, vice president of the Maryland State Conference NAACP. "That's not good." . Edited by Kerri P., Sep 4 2012, 03:40 PM.

That sounds like a missed opportunity for the RNC last week. For the brief time that I have listened to local radio talk shows, I have yet to hear a Dem speak without a foreign accent. Mexican from Oregon and a native American (heavy accent) from Northern Wisconsin who said our tax dollars build things for people. I suppose he's talking about all the casinos on reservations in Wisc. |

Hells Kitchen.. I rather hear Gordon yelled at the line chefs than listen to her. And the SF Giants are on TV playing the Diamondbacks before that. You now know my TV viewing for tonight. As for tomorrow night & Clinton's big speech. It's the kickoff of the NFL Season with a 2 hour pregame show & then Dallas vs the Giants Do you even think it even crosses Clinton's mind(ego) Obama(bigger ego) put him on the worst time? Where he will get the lowest TV audience? Edited by Baldo, Sep 4 2012, 04:04 PM.

. I would like to Interview her. If you could, would you change the name of the Country? When you spoke to the NAACP, almost every sentence contained 'We' or "Us'. Do you believe a First Lady should speak in that divisive tone? Will Barack be true to his real beliefs in a second term? Will he be able to be the change agent for redistribution as he championed in his community organizing days? Do you think your staff of almost 100 is adequate? Necessary? Will you travel less in the second term? Why do you and Barack host Rappers at the White House that have advocated snuffing out Snitches? Can you tell us who the Jeremiah Wright is that is on the sign-in logs at the WH to visit the President? Did you hear any of his Sermons in the 20 years you sat there? Do you have a Hearing problem? What does Chicago South Side values mean? Does Rahm Emanuel have that same value system? How about Jesse Jackson? When was the first time you stood for the National Anthem? Were you angry that you felt you had to? If you could pass a law, what would it be? We obviously have to make some cuts in programs or services. What Government program(s) would you advocate cutting? A high-paying position was created for you when your husband became a Senator. Do you feel you benefited from special treatment, working from home and making hundreds of thousands of dollars? .

A root canal for Debbie Wasserman Schultz? DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz has claimed that Michael Oren, Israel’s ambassador to the U.S., told her that Republican actions are “dangerous” to Israel. She reportedly made this comment at a training session for Jewish Democrats held by the Obama campaign at the Democratic National Convention. The training was designed to assist Jewish Democrats in the thankless (but sadly none-too-difficult) task of convincing Jews to vote for Obama. Wasserman Schultz concluded her remarks by saying, “We know, and I’ve heard no less than Ambassador Michael Oren say this, that what the Republicans are doing is dangerous for Israel.” Michael Oren, however, denies making any such comment, and it would be shocking if had made it. First, Oren is an Israeli diplomat, not an American political partisan. Second, there is no evidence that his government believes Republican actions are dangerous to Israel, and no sound basis for such a belief. The danger to Israel comes from Iran. Obama has failed to mitigate it. The Republicans are likely to be of more assistance and certainly won’t be of less. In any event, Oren’s denial could not be more emphatic: I categorically deny that I ever characterized Republican policies as harmful to Israel. Bipartisan support is a paramount national interest for Israel, and we have great friends on both sides of the aisle. I like the “both sides of aisle” part, a reference to Israel’s good relations with Congressional Democrats. President Obama sits on neither side of the congressional aisle. Being at odds with Israel’s ambassador to the U.S. clearly presents a problem for blabbermouth Debbie Wasserman Schultz and the Democrats. She can either back down or call Oren a liar. Or, as Alana Goodman suggests, she can undergo a root canal. http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2012/09/a-root-canal-for-debbie-wasserman-schultz.php |

You'll have to ask Mason. I'm 99% certain he has a couple TV's behind bullet proof glass ...they'd have to be considering the news he watches and reports on. Of course Mobama may be just a little too much! |

This is the same first lady that was only proud of her country, for the first time, after her husband was nominated to be POTUS. Mochella is IMO a communist, Marxist follower, who hates this country and the US Constitution. |

I am forced to watch DNC due to a Dem cohabitor. During the RNC, I assured him I would also watch as much of the DNC as I could, because I am not adverse to hearing both sides of the debate. ( Maybe that should read "as much of the DNC as I could stomach". ) Keeping my word. Sometimes parenting is not easy. |
