This is a post from one of the PUMAs - AWESOME!

You know what is funny? I have something to tell you guys.

Of all these years, I never watch Republican Convention. I never really know any republican figures other those who are hated by Democrats. I never spend anytime learning more about them as I grow up in Democrat family. This year, for the first time, I watch Republican Convention. You know what I find? People are not angry. They all say gracious things. There is a lot of kindness. One hispanic woman was asked if Hispanic folks will be behind John McCain even though he backed securing the border first before immigration reform, she answered kindly “Yes, we will back John McCain. He had faught for us on many issues even though it made his party angry and dislike him. John McCain tried hard and many times to get immigration reform to pass, but there were too many Americans believe it is more important to secure our border first. If that is the most important thing to everybody and must do in order to pass immigration reform, then we better get that done right away.” Another man was very proud of McCain picked Palin as a VP for her record and what she had done in Alaska. He also admired her for being non-Ivy league candidate who achieves professional political life and family life without being abbrasive. And on, and on..... Wow.... Everybody is so kind and gracious and hopeful. Nobody is so angry like last week. I am amazed.

Forgive me for being ignorant, but, I was not aware that John McCain's wife adopted their daughter and was personally handed to McCain's wife by Mother Teresa .
This is a beautiful contrast to when we saw Mother Teresa condemning President Clinton about abortion.. the Libs never learn.
I would love to see on live TV on all the TV net works the Pope condemning Nancy Pelosi for her support on abortion.

Aw - shucks!

No surprise, really, though... the face and body really don’t match well, and I’m pretty sure I’ve seen that exact face in a different picture.

MSNBC Olberman “throw the bums out, and replace them with us”

So Obama gets 2 VP’s? 3? Olberman and Shivers Matthews continue to cheer lead on the losing team

Olberdip was reporting on Thompson saying the Media was blrpdb fravitz sluppy “Whatever”!!

He could even “hear” the criticism much less repeat it!

It was eloquence is no substitute for a record, I think. And it would be a great tagline. Joe had a few zingers there.

There are some parallels to 1968. The militant left will not behave for 2 more months. Right now the pollsters are crowing that Obama is sitting at 50% vs. 42 for McCain. He will not be sitting at 50% by this weekend. McCain has a real chance to turn this around, and it still is pre-debates.

I would love to see a situation where Obama is either locked in a tie or a little behind going into the debates. I don’t think he will hold up well under the pressure. I know that his militant, Rev. Wright followers will not behave and they will finish sinking him if he doesn’t do it himself. By the way we haven’t seen the commercials linking Obama to Ayers yet. Obama really I think needs to have minimum 10 point lead AFTER the conventions, and Palin and McCain haven’t even spoken yet. Not good position for Obama.

I was looking for the Newt response to MSNBC at Youtube. It says the video has been pulled.

If you read the comments on the link to the real pic you’ll learn the history of the photoshop and where they got Palin’s face:
