Really? Unfortunately I cannot watch Fox - so go, Rudy!

Ayers - what’s so bad about somebody who wanted to - and helped a group try to - blow up our Capitol? There were a lot of people being oppressed back then....oppression leads to resistance....resistance sometimes is only heard when violence occurs....(this is what I heard from a liberal friend yesterday when discussing Ayers’ and Obama’s friendship....)

So Ayers simply is not going to be an effective argument to the koolaid drinkers...

Did they just speed up the teleprompter or something? He started talking really fast.

LMAO!!! Why does Heuy Lewis keep popping up on our threads?

I don't know. He should be paying us--we give him a lot of publicity. Or I do anyway :)

Warner is running for the Senate. This speech is all about him. He is campaigning for himself.

FNC is doing the smartest thing with the interviews.

Why waste time with the idiot fluff and pay off speeches (do this for me and we will give you a prime spot on the convention)

Next Ohio Gove Stickland

Later Hillary

She is going to be at 10:30 or 11: or later E.S.T.

This current buffoon is just bashing the USA as the land of misery.

Obama has nothing to fear about being compared to Obama, he is not even close.

Former NBA star Charles Barkley attends the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado August 26, 2008. U.S. Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) is expected to accept the Democratic presidential nomination at the convention on August 28.

Mark Warner.. Braaaaaaaaaaack Obama, Braaaaaaaaaaack , braaaaaaaack...

Sounds like Aristophaes' Frogs:

Barackackack, coax, coax, Barackackack, coax.
Slimy offspring of the marshland,
let our harmonious voices mingle with the sounds of the flute, coax, coax!
let us repeat the songs that we sing in honour of the Nysæan Dionysus
on the day of the feast of pots,
when the drunken throng reels towards our temple in the Limnæ.
Barackackack, coax, coax.

Cheers!

Democrats have lost it, they know it. I mean they are even calling this the Obama Party, not the Democrat Party now. It doesn't matter that Bill Clinton was the last Democrat President, this party now belongs to Obama... pathetic.

On the CNN HD channel they have a “sound from the floor” meter on the left side. I’ve seen more noise registered by ants walking by.

Speaking of past, Obama is shooting for a certain October day in 1917. Yep, this really is about the past versus the future.

..and for those of you who like to Photoshop Obama's big O,

Because it's hip to be square.

Warner is burring himself.

He is not empassioned, he is one big NAG.

It is jimmy carter’s malase speech with a different stage.

He’s just not gettin’ the job done. No enthusiasm at all. He’s just reading the speech and raising his voice at times. A very poor showing. If this is the best the Dems have for their future than they don’t have a future.

CSPAM-2’s taking calls after this overly anticipated keynote speaker, Warner. What a windbag ... totally uninspiring or exciting. Boo.... terrible voice.

This been posted yet ?

Bill’s really letting loose .. throwing total caution to the wind. Jeeze .. wow. Dick Morris mentioned earlier that people are saying there was some “effect” from the heart/lung machine during his surgery, and he is different ... no self censoring. Anywhoo, here’s the newest slam from the pouting, inconsolable former prez:

~~~~

http://www.denverpost.com/politicswestnews/ci_10302512

Last par.

“Bill Clinton believes the Democratic nominee, far from practicing a unifying, transformational brand of politics,

***
has the political instincts of “a Chicago thug,” one longtime associate said.

***
Clinton has told people that Obama allowed surrogates to try to suppress Hispanic turnout in the Nevada caucuses and played “the race card” in reverse against the Clintons in South Carolina and other states.

~~~

That one’s gonna sting and leave big scars. Unbelievable.
