The Democratic Bash Won’t Matter
WSJ ^ | 7-27-16 | Tokyo Rove

Posted on 07/27/2016 10:24:08 PM PDT by Angels27

Though the slogan for the first day of the Democratic National Convention was “United Together,” the party appeared to be anything but. Hacked emails dumped online by WikiLeaks had confirmed the worst suspicions of Sen. Bernie Sanders’s supporters. The Democratic establishment had been working all along to defeat their man, even discussing whether to plant stories that Mr. Sanders, who is Jewish, doesn’t believe in God.

After Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz announced her resignation, she was rewarded by being named an “honorary chair” for Hillary Clinton’s campaign. Sanders supporters were hardly satisfied. On Monday the Bernie Bunch booed Ms. Wasserman Schultz off the stage. They demonstrated their frustration in the convention hall, and on Philadelphia’s streets, demanding votes on their candidate’s proposals on trade and the party’s rules.

Try as they might...

“Paul Simon, who warbled “Bridge Over Troubled Waters.” Convention organizers should have tried to get the song’s original vocalist, Art Garfunkel.”

Yes.. it was a sad sad rendition.

If Hitlery divorced Bill after the first time he Garfunkeled an intern, she might have wound up in a better place.

1. “United together” is redundant.

2. Simon can’t even get along with Garfunkel. Not the best mascot of unity.

If Bill knew 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover, Hillary wouldn’t have been The Boxer with an ashtray and Still Crazy After All These Years with her presidential aspirations Slip Slidin Away as Bill hums I Am A Rock while chasing every Cecelia and Mrs. Robinson in America.

Paul Simon’s Theme Song for Bill and Hillary:

“Overs”

Why don’t we stop fooling ourselves?
The game is over,
Over,
Over.

No good times, no bad times,
There’s no times at all,
Just The New York Times,
Sitting on the windowsill
Near the flowers.

We might as well be apart.
It hardly matters,
We sleep separately.

And drop a smile passing in the hall
But there’s no laughs left
‘Cause we laughed them all.
And we laughed them all
In a very short time.

Time
Is tapping on my forehead,
Hanging from my mirror,
Rattling the teacups,

And I wonder,
How long can I delay?
We’re just a habit
Like saccharin.

And I’m habitually feelin’ kinda blue.

But each time I try on
The thought of leaving you,
I stop...
I stop and think it over

The White House is telling reporters the president will actively campaign for Mrs. Clinton and Democratic candidates, raising funds starting next week and traveling throughout October. This will only reinforce that the race is a choice between the status quo with Mrs. Clinton and change with Mr. Trump.

Excellent point.

And, I believe, the Trump campaign will continue to remind young folks that Bill Clinton is antithetic to the millennial culture’s supposed view toward men and rape, men and women.

Bubba would be shamed out of their colleges.

And yet Hillary covered for him, attacking his victims.

So much a target rich environment. I think William Jefferson is, finally, in a time when his B.S. doesn’t fit.

I look forward to his slow and steady public neutering. A fitting end to Slick Willy.

I just pray for the sound of the Clintons’ silence.

Too bad. Sarah was hot in that two-part ST:Voyager, it's the only time I've seen her.

'Tis a crying shame she caught the Democrat brain rot...

Karl Rove, striving to remain relevant since 2008.
