FEAR & LOATHING IN DENVER (laugh break: Dem convention problems)

NY Post ^ | June 30, 2008 | EDITORIAL

The DNC's Denver confab has adopted political correctness not seen since George McGovern boycotted grapes. Organizers have strict rules aimed at the "greenest convention in the history of the planet." * No fried foods. Whatsoever. * All meals must include "at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, blue/purple and white." * At least 70% of foods must be organic and grown locally..........900 recycling enforcers will ensure every scrap of trash goes into the proper bin. But full compliance is proving difficult........demands that 15,000 fanny packs for volunteers be US-made of organic cotton by union labor turns out to be impossible: Such things don't exist.

No fried foods. Whatsoever. All meals must include at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, blue/purple and white.

MY SUGGESTON The DNC menu should be all-protein, low-residue astronaut-type diet to save energy from incessant flushing, and overusage of water and paper.

ROTFL.

[A_Former_Democrat]

Just when you think these people couldn’t get any goofier . . .

[Mark]

That’s right libs, leave out the black,... as usual!

[bray]

Maybe they can cook one of those Tofu Turkeys, Yum!

Pray for W and Our Troops

[DugwayDuke]

They might be ‘goofy’ but this is only a shadow of what they would force the rest of us to do if they had the power.

[Eagle Eye]

But it is for your own good.

[swarthyguy]

No French Fries? That’s UnAmerican.

[Argus]

I think I’ll stock up on fried chicken, french fries and beer to enjoy while watching the Dem convention meltdown in Denver.

[EBH]

..........900 recycling enforcers

And they will throw you out of the convention, force you to sort trash, put a dunce cap on your head, what? How very fascist of them...

[WilliamofCarmichael]

RE: "[T]his is only a shadow of what they would force the rest of us to do if they had the power."

Obama, et al are patriots because they want to "make America great." It ain't good enough now.

So that's some of what they have in mind.

[xmission]

But... Teddy will Starve :(

[oneamericanvoice]

...save energy from incessant flushing, and overusage of water and paper. One square per participant per flush? Glad I'm Republican. They've also done away with fried foods. Bet I could make a ton of money peddling McDonald's fries, and toliet paper. Heck, hamburgers have the requisite three colors: red -tomatoes & ketchup, green -lettuce, yellow - mustard. Mayonnaise gives 'em a fourth. The Green Circus is coming to Denver! Popcorn is white....

[Argus]

No fried foods?

Hey Kanye, NOW who doesn’t care about black people?

[NoobRep]

Can you imagine the group of freeloading, sissy men, dyked out, tree hugging, anti-American, drugged out commies that will be invading Denver for the so called “DNC” convention? They may as well just call it the national convention for losers.

[MtnClimber]

I think each person in attendance should be allocated 1 sheet of toilet paper per day.

[DugwayDuke]

Liberals are not “in love with America”. They are ‘in love with what they wish America to be’. You probably won’t like their ideas.

[dfwddr]

But it is for your own good.

And I always thought It was for the childern....

[Liz]

Yeah sure, one sheet each——but does the paper have the union label?

Huh?

[Enchante]

"15,000 fanny packs for volunteers be US-made of organic cotton by union labor turns out to be impossible: Such things don't exist."

Someone should tell the Greenie-bozos that fanny packs and other such conveniences are not allowed! How dare they waste any of the earth's precious resources on mere convenience....... the 15,000 volunteers can be told to clutch everything in their bare hands - they don't really 'need' fanny packs - just carry everything and save on resources. For that matter, abolish all forms of convenience, and then abolish the convention itself!! The Internet allows them to make their decisions without convening in person, so why should they be allowed to emit so much "carbon" to transport and house and feed, etc. tens of thousands of humans??? DO they really care about GAIA, or not??

[indylindy]

What, no “SOUL Food”?

It must be discrimination.

[atomic conspiracy]

God help us.

Bill Clinton is requesting that his tofu turkey

[Mom MD]

Unfortunately, plenty of that type already live in Denver. Ditto with the peoples republic of boulder just to the north.
Now we’re bringing in more of these idiots for the convention.
I hope they leave quickly and take some of the Denver ones with them.

Good thing I live far enough out in the burbs to avoid the fallout (I hope)

[Mr_Moonlight]

All meals must include "at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, blue/purple and white."

Spaghetti with marinara sauce, green peppers and onions ... followed by desert of eggyoke coated blueberry pie.

That'll stick ta yer gut! YUM, YUM :)

[Liz]

.....no “SOUL Food”? It must be discrimination......

I may not be politically correct---but I know racism when I see it.....

Besides, what is Jesse Jackson gonna eat? Tell me that why don'tcha?

Poor guy's gonna starve.

[george76]

one sheet ——with the union label

[Mr_Moonlight]

one sheet ——with the union label

With a recycling bin for that one sheet (enforced by the 900) .....

[b9]

Can we say “hoisted by their own petard?”

[Liz]

Fanny packs?

All the Dems EVER think about is THEIR own convenience.

OMG-—when I think of the nasty carbon footprints them Dems are gonna leave. I tell you it’s enough to make me want to hurl.

[chris_bdba]

Somehow I think the nearest McD’s is going to make a fortune!

[Mr_Moonlight]

Somehow I think the nearest McD’s is going to make a fortune!

Ahhhh, but then there'll be food shortages at that McD's, which leads to rationing, which leads to perceived price gouging, which leads to ...... a Congressional investigation

[Billthedrill]

All meals must include "at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, blue/purple and white...

Venison roast (rare), corn on the cob with plenty of butter, served on a white styrofoam plate. Works for me. It's for the planet, baby.

[Chode]

and the RATS, take another one in the..................HA ha!!!

You don't really think the big shots are going to be stuck with that veggie crap, do you?

[Billthedrill]

You don't really think the big shots are going to be stuck with that veggie crap, do you?

LOL! Not in a million years. The private receptions at the big hotels will take care of any incipient malnutrition. We wouldn't want the ruling class to starve, would we?

[Pablo64]

"I hope they leave quickly and take some of the Denver ones with them."

Sadly, they have infested Colorado far beyond Boulder, Denver, or any of the I-25 corridor. When I visited the Four Corners area last year (where I grew up) I was shocked to see how bad the infestation had gotten. Durango is no longer recognizable to me any more, and even some of the smaller surrounding communities are showing signs.

I used to dream of the day when I would be able to move back to Colorado (especially the southwest part of the state), but now I have to say that I don't think I could live there again. Thankfully, I still have my childhood memories.

Watermelon is red and white and green and black.

[Mom MD]

I would love to retire to the Ridgeway/Ouray area. Do you thing the liberals in the SW part of the state are the city types moving out, or more due to illegal immigration?

I am very sad (like you) that our once blood red state is now a “purple” swing state. I guess thats what happens when you live in the best place in the country - the libs find out and move in

Fortunately the SE part of the metro area where I live is firmly conservative. District 6 or Tancredo’s district! YAY!

[Liz]

Dang it all, I sure hope Jesse and Obama like this DNC Soul Food Lentil Pattie served on pita bread.

[Popman]

And organizers have recruited 900 recycling enforcers to ensure that every scrap of trash goes into the proper bin.

Funny, how these Stalinist can't see the forest for the trees.

.....and they call us fascists..............

[Billthedrill]

Waidaminnud...orange, check. Red, check. Green, check. We're good to go.

Now I'm hungry.

[Billthedrill]

Wait, I forgot yellow. Throw in a can of Cheez Whiz and I’m all there.

[Liz]

Maybe they can put a couple in their fanny packs?

[Noumenon]

They’d put us all into cattle cars if they had the power. Hence, my tagline.

[b9]

I grew up in SE Denver.
We vacationed every summer in Durango where our dad grew up.

Such happy memories.

[MrsEmmaPeel]

I'm surprised. Any diabetic knows to avoid “white/yellow” foods as they are very high in carbs and bad for you.
