Following the highly anticipated DNC speech by First Lady Michelle Obama on Monday, CNN’s Anderson Cooper called out Political Commentator Van Jones for crying during the speech. “Well I mean, first of all, if you weren't moved by that, go see the doctor,” he responded. Jones continued by speaking glowingly about the speech, “She gave a clinic on how to connect to the American people,” and “It was her speaking as a mother.” The rest of the panelists did much of the same, they all praised her speech for different reasons.

CNN’s Senior Political Reporter Nia-Malika Henderson praised Hillary Clinton’s wisdom in selecting the first lady to speak on the first night of the convention. “I think the Clinton campaign smartly knew that this was going to be the headline of the night,” Henderson noted, before taking a swipe at Clinton’s primary rival, “They knew that most Americans weren't tuning in for Bernie Sanders, and no offense to Bernie Sanders, but they were tuning in for Michelle Obama.”

OMG! Srsly? We got home in time to see the tail end of her lame ass speech. Noticed a little cultural appropriation going on with the hair. But the crying that van jones was doing was nothing compared the open weeping when uncle burn-mee took the stage. As they panned the crowd the genteel snowflakes were melting away. We watched C-span so we were not subjected to the msm fawning all over themselves about her screed. Of course ew (fauxcahauntus) was, as usual, sickening. (Kinda weird she talked about how Trump inherited gazillions of dollars but she was intro'd by joe kennedy) Be afraid for your children. Trump will sneek in to their rooms at night and drain all of their blood from them. Should be some more laughs tonight. Barf bucket close by. We did notice a Laura Ingrahm type nazi salute from both 'ew' and 'bs'. Or was that just waving to the crowd. Anyone notice slick willie in the box seats with that person from planned parenthood sitting next to him? Probably hittin' on her.

[Democrats hate too much]

Maybe the two had a ‘thing’ going on.

The only speech that has moved me to tears so far was the one given by Pat Smith at the RNC.

[TigerClaws]

It only took $100,000,000 in free taxpayer trips to make her proud of America.

[RoseofTexas]

Nope it’s called “collusion”!!!!

[Gaffer]

Noticed a little cultural appropriation going on with the hair.

I'm betting you could buy a condo for what they spend on "her hair" during a year. I've seen pictures of way before.....

[Crucial]

Did CNN get this fawning approved by Hillary? Did she tell them how much to fawn over each person? Did she approve the exact language used?

CNN always has to get approval from the Dems. It’s in the e-mails.

LOL! I was gonna say they probably need to check with Julian Assange.

[Rome2000]

COMMIE SANDERS raised and spent 230 million dollars on his campaign, all from the type of idiots that were crying.

P.T. Barnum was right.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Van crying because she’s NOT the candidate.

The whitest woman in the world is. And the most crooked.

[Neoliberalnot]

Why can’t the moochin bitch just shut up? As much a despicable liar as her Muslim imam.

[UCANSEE2]

2008 DNC Convention.

2016 DNC Convention.

[Iron Munro]

Are they setting Moochie up on Hot Standby to take Hillary’s place as the democrat nominee when Wikileaks releases the next batch of eMails?

[FatherFig1o155]

Mine was Marcus Luttrell’s.

[UCANSEE2]

I swear, all those signs are ‘grassroots’ and handmade. (/s)

Delegates were told if thy didn’t hold up the signs, they would be shot.

Good point!

I initially watched her speech muted, and came away with a very different impression. Afterward all the FOX hosts were gushing over how wonderful her speech was, so my loss, though I listened to some of it later.

Does anyone else wonder if there was a backhanded meaning in the blue dress though?

[hecticskeptic]

The speech was racist through and through.....of course no one on CNN would have even noticed because they are so immersed in a culture where ‘it’s ok for black people to say some things that a white person would be shot and pi$$ed on for saying’.
