Here's the line up. Yep, vets and active duty, we have a retired Navy Admiral who is addressing the DNC in prime time to tell us what a great CinC Obummer is. Does this need a barf warning?

Yes it does. What rank is this “Admiral”?. A full Admiral is four stars but many underlings hoping for their next rank are just Real Adm.

Why on earth would any Admiral want to support a fraud like Obama. Someone should look into this guy associates with, and if he might have been a Soviet plant.

Well, I do know he’s an AVIATOR!
(This from a ship driver’s family).
I truly think these flag/general officers - Gen Powell included - sell their soul for promotion.
I saw ADM Mullen at a function recently...
Couldn’t look him in the eye for all the distruction he has wrought on my Navy.

Amazing, huh?
Just recently retired...
It really turns my stomach...
Just like the military mom who intro’d Mooch...how can you be so completely blind?

Just heard the Foo Fighters on stage as FoxNews went to break.

They are still a great band. I have no choice but to ignore their politics. Proof:

Ramble On

Of course, it doesn't hurt to have half of Led Zepplin on the stage with them.

That’s the way I feel about Pearl Jam...
Eddie Vetter is so lib he leans left when he walks..
But I still love their early stuff...
And yes, even when they play with that old fossil, Neil Young, playing “Rocking’ In the Free World”...just love it.

Just played your link .....awesome.
Funny that Jimmy Page was such a freak when he was young...
Now with a wife and kids, he’s the picture of respectability.
Hmmmmmm.....
