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.



Grab your laptop and play this video a few times while you two are watching the DNC.

Listening to Dennis Miller on Fox news radio from L.A. Then Sean Hannity and then the crazies come on if I am still awake. Looking for a UFo sighting would be more exciting than these speeches.

That video is a shot in their own foot, imo.

It has done some damage.

That's the 'build it middle out, instead of top down' mayor!

Let's compare the symptoms and bravery of multiple sclerosis patients. MO's dad and Ann?

This really makes me sick.

She talks about Barak's poverty. The gift he has shared with America. Poverty is up by 25% under him

This convention is dedicated to persuading us not to pay attention to what we see all around us and to focus on what they say

ABC News made repeated attempts to interview Spinner as the Solyndra saga unfolded, and he declined. When he was approached by ABC News on the convention floor Monday, he bolted for an exit.

A DNC employee blocked ABC News reporters from following Spinner as he broke into a run.

"You can't follow people," the aide said, as he held up his arms to keep the camera from filming Spinner as he left the venue.

Top story at Drudge...

Quote:
 
First Lady says husband 'a man we can trust'

snip

"He reminds me that we are playing a long game here ... and that change is hard, and change is slow and it never happens all at once," she told a nation impatient with slow economic progress and persistently high unemployment of 8.3 percent. "But eventually, we get there, we always do," she said in a speech that blended scenes from 23 years of marriages with the Obamas' time in the White House.

snip

The weak economy hung over the convention as it dominates the election.

Obama "knows better than anyone there's more hard work to do" to fix it said Castro. He said that after the deep recession, the nation is making progress "despite incredible odds and united Republican opposition."

He declared that 4.5 million jobs have been created since the president took office — though that number refers only to private sector employment gains over the past 29 months and leaves out state and local government jobs that continue to disappear each month.

Castro, the first Hispanic chosen to deliver a keynote address, was unsparing in criticizing Romney, suggesting the former Massachusetts governor might not even be the driving force on the Republican ticket this fall.

"Either way, their theory has been tested. It failed. ...Mitt Romney just doesn't get it," Castro said. Romney's running mate is Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan.

The divide over taxes goes to the core of the campaign.

Romney and the Republicans favor extension of all of the existing Bush-era tax cuts due to expire on Dec. 31, and also want to cut tax rates 20 percent across the board.

Obama, too, wants to keep the existing tax cuts in place — except for people with earnings of $250,000 a year or more.

Democrats criticized Romney last week for failing to offer a detailed plan to fix the economy. But nowhere in their own convention's first evening of speechmaking did anyone present proposals for reining in deficits that now exceed $1 trillion annually.

snip


we are playing a long game here ... eventually, we get there, we always do,"

That's called the natural cycle of business ...the one they screwed up and have done nothing but create uncertainty and good reason to NOT invest in ventures that hold risk. They've transformed a natural bounce to recovery into the "long game" and merely hope time will always change the results.

As for Castro, his accomplisjments have come riding the backs of conservatives that hold the tax rates down in his state. Give a liberal a city in a state that caters to businees and add lots of oil near that city, along with federal and private funds paying for a military base and medical research, and it's nearly impossible to fail. He has done nothing that would amaze me in any way.

And there are still a whole lot of poor people in his city.

The difference between Obama Dems and us

"The Government Is the Only Thing That We All Belong To"

Video that played during the DNC includes the line "The Government Is The Only Thing We All Belong To" (September 4, 2012).

I certainly don't "Belong to Govt" I like to think the Govt belongs to US!
