For the worst years in the history of man these last 8 years have been very good to me

Brit Hume had the best line of the night:

"The way these Democrats talk in their speeches, you'd think we were living in Belarus or something."

Bill Kristol has been a shining light in post convention coverage.

Yes he has. I'm amazed to say that he 's been spot on with all his analysis, including last night's Hillary speech.

retro: I'm against dentists. tsmith130: Ooooh...well who isn't?! No offense to any Freeper dentists. I'm sure you're all lovely people.

Oh, that we are. ... that we are... theNurse tells me that neither of you have shown up for your annual appointments, a simple cleaning and look-about. Luckily I have 2 slots open right now. So please, follow me to the cel- er... yes, cellar examination rooms and we can make sure you're in good dental health, that there are no cavities, no gingivitis, and that the nerve endings so important to your oral well-being are able to detect pain.

Ignore the leather restraints. Purely precautionary....

Ahhhh... I love extended exams in the morning..... they really make my day. ;-)

I remember this being reported when it happened. It was a ‘See how nice we are, we’re helping Hillary retire her debt.” from the Obamas.

Question for all...

Is this acceptance speech at the stadium for His Highness a first? I don’t recall this happening before for any candidate. I seem to always remember them being done at the convention site.

Just saw a segment with Peter Doosey(sp).

He had photos of 4 dem politicans (Reid, Pelosi, Biden, Dean, and Dick Cheney).

He went amongst the crowd of protestors and asked them who the people in the photos were.

LOL, they didn't have a clue. When told who Cheney was, they asked, "Didn't he shoot the President.

Cheer up, Jonny...the Bubba speech should be funny. Dick M. said that Bill is famous for having one speech in the teleprompter and delivering another one from memory. Remember, it's all about Bill. ;)

Before Bubba came along, the most ill I would get listening to a politician was when listening to Joe Biden....

now - both - the same night - just not sure the country can endure it without having massive digestive system breakdown across the land,,,

Ooooo!! I knew it!!! You DO jab us with the pointy thing on purpose!!!

Being serious for a minute, last time I went to the dentist, the hygienist (sp?) was using that pointy thing, slipped and jabbed me in the gums REALLY hard. It bled for the longest time. She kept apologizing and I got all sorts of extra stuff in my goody bag when I left. LOL

:-( Do I have to whip out my humor quotes??

The way things are today, we live in a world that needs laughter, and I've decided if I can make people laugh, I'm making a more important contribution.- Paul Lynde

Common sense and a sense of humor are the same thing, moving at different speeds. A sense of humor is just common sense, dancing.- William James

You can turn painful situations around through laughter. If you can find humor in anything, even poverty, you can survive it.- Bill Cosby

To: Fundamentally Fair

Liberal sibling watching last night’s charade with me was the first to notice how unhappy this lady appeared to be sitting next to the former rapist in chief.....and then we found out why. This was the wife of the Arkansas Democratic Party Chairman - a former bigtime FOB - who was for Hillary but who switched over to support Obama when he took the nomination...who is now dead. Bill hugged her VERY much too long. This lady no doubt, having lived in Arksansas, and I bet having been around Bill in other settings, wanted NOTHING to do with the groper. I want to send her a letter of sympathy about being forced to sit there with the thuglug. and even be hugged by him. I wonder if Kathleen Willey (sp) has made contact with her.

“LOL, they didn’t have a clue.”

What a farce. I wish the media would report the facts on these fake protestors. They look like “actors” playing scary protestors. Their little anarchy outfits and the stupid bandanas over their face. How silly.
