How to Pay for the Dem Convention

The Honorable John W. Hickenlooper Mayor's Office Denver, Colorado

Dear Mayor Hickenlooper:

I read that your efforts to raise funds for the 2008 Democratic National Convention are falling far short of your needs, that you will need to raise $40.6 million by June 16 in order to pay the expenses occasioned by the August 25-28 convention in your city.

I am sure you have lots of very good ideas about how to do this, but as an experienced fund raiser myself and as someone sympathetic with your plight, I wonder if I might be so bold as to offer up a few suggestions you may not have considered?

What if the govenment paid billions for fighter planes but the dems had to hold a bake sale to pay for their own bombs? Oops. I mean Hillary and Obama and their convention.

Funny stuff and an excellent idea to raise money!

Announce you'll give donors a chance to bid on the right to film the convention as the last, best in the Survivor Contests. There will of course be two tribes: The Obamamites and the Clintonites. And, in keeping with the Survivor series theme, this will be an Immunity Challenge. Whichever team wins will get immunity from what used to be called "The Tribal Council", but which for the sake of clarity I'd call "The Super- Delegates." Whoever wins the contest cannot have super- delegates vote against him/her.

Priceless snip from this article.

Obama refused to wear a flag lapel pin which he derided as a cheap symbol of patriotism but stood in a field of 8 American flags when Reverend Wright’s hate filled spews against this country, needed a response from him

Hillary was for and against drivers' licenses for immigrants in virtually the same sentence.

He told the voters in Ohio he would substantially alter NAFTA which his campaign advisers were telling Canadian diplomats to ignore that partisan, campaign blather. This from the candidate of hope and change.

I HOPE they CHANGE and stop lying all the time!

Set up a Democratic bounty system on illegal aliens so they can raise the money. Say, $25 per...

Should be enough for several conventions.

If Denver doesn’t come up with the bribe money will the Dems just give up on the convention? That could be the best thing that happened to them in this campaign.

HOW TO PAY FOR THE DEM CONVENTION

? ? ? ?

BUT, but, but, but . . . uhhhhh

Billdo Klintoon only THINKS

his little johnny is THAT talented and that there would be THAT many ‘ladies’ lining up for a . . . ‘performance.’

In reality, he’s just not that exciting a ‘Dillbo’ . . .

nor THAT excitingly large according to ?Kathleen Wiley?

Her description sounded more like a tiny little old crooked legged man with a cane IIRC.

But what do I know. I just enjoy being derisive about His Unroyal Lowness—his treasonous dishonorable traitorous globalist idiocy.

There definitely needs to be a DNC reality show on MTV, involving Tila Tequila and Flavor Flav.

Each candidate can be filmed candid and crying, telling why they deserve to remain in the house and take a Shot At The Presidency.

Then Howard Dean can come out in grandiose fashion, and say that, "One of you will remain, and one will go home."
