It’s going very slow!!

I did laugh when she told her stupid joke and gave a quick, “Hahaha!” Then was serious in about 1 second flat.

She comes across as very contrived. Like she’s putting on an act.

the gun call is an unrelated overdose call...

Big cheer when she said she was “raised on the south side of Chicago”.

(Watching the CNN feed, the Denver Post feed and the FR feed all in separate windows. Can’t tell if I’m listening to convention cheers or riot noise!)

(FR is not only slow, I swear it’s going backwards!)

Wouldn’t it be funny if something comes out about Biden in the next 24 hours or so and the dems nominate Hillary for VP.

Michelle-My-Belle’s gotten some heavy-duty coaching the past few weeks, IMHO. Probably someone sent by Oprah. I, however, am not fooled.

I swear, the old lady in the second pic looks just like HM Queen Elizabeth.

I think it’s past momma’s bedtime.

[retrokitten]

LOL!! I agree.

Looks like they softened her look up. Makeup looks less intense.

Yeah...they took hair and makeup to a more "mainstream" level.

FoxNews tickers are so profound: OBAMA: AMERICA SHOULD BE A PLACE WHERE YOU CAN MAKE IT.

<> Those green and purple pictures look bloody awful.

Yep. Don’t forget “obnoxious”, “arrogant”, “uncaring capitalist”.

I worked hard to craft this persona.

If anybody knew that I gave a crap about others and worked to help them it would ruin my rep.

Just keep it between us.

The thought of BO as president doesn’t bother me as much as the thought of Michelle Ma Belle as First Lady.

>>This is painful.

Looking for the Advil right now.

This site is painfully slow, just to make it interesting. I’m going to take up knitting if it doesn’t speed up.

You mean “across the continent in Hawaii” is not clear?

Sarc

[kallisti]

I liked “all the way across the continent...in Hawaii.”

[tsmith130]

Uh...they’re dead. Or do you mean pictures of him with them when they were alive? There’s only one of him with his father...and I’ve seen one of him with his mother I think at his high school (or college) graduation.

Poor old Jim Leach spent too many years holding on to a district that finally tossed him over for a Dim. That sort of thing can turn a guy like Leach around, in time, until he doesn’t know if he’s coming or going. He’s addled.
