Joe Trippi just said the DNC Commie-thon looked flat.

My Giants aren’t looking any better, sadly. 7-3.

Oh, she just said that her party was THE party that REALLY stood up for personal rights. CNN said she did great getting the message to young women. She loved the spotlight, indeed.

NBC is shameless. At halftime of the Cowboys vs. Giants game, they gave Slick Willie some time to address the rumors that he doesn’t get along well with Obama. Probably a lot bigger audience than is watching the Dim convention.

Anything to help the home team, eh Brian Williams.

Sooooo glad the Cowboys-Giants game is on tonight. Kudos to NBC (never thought I'd ever say that) for covering it.

You all deserve a medal for following this s##t

Reading this thread is much more fun than watching the actual debacle. Thanks for all who are actually brave enough to watch and tell us what’s going on. I’m just wondering if it’s worth losing sleep over tonight.

->>>Keith Olbermann once yelled at me on Twitter. Why wasn’t I asked to speak at the RNC shindig ?

Could it have been that clinton requested fluck speak just before he speaks. That would give him about 20 minutes to get that afterglow thing going on. Then, later tonight...Just asking.

“The Fluke-ster is really out-slutting herself this time.

She is definitely a pro who was primed a long time ago for the role she has today.

Talks like a Commie community organizer”

I was searching for a schedule of speakers tonight (not that I can stomach watching - just curious) and went to a site I had not been before and knew nothing of. I found it ‘interesting’ that just a few short months ago, Sandra was a ‘poor college student’ and she’s listed on the schedule as follows:

Sandra Fluke, attorney and women’s rights activist

I’m probably one of the few here in D/FW that prefer to watch the Rangers game.

I am shocked they have Sandra on.

Talk about a dog whistle to women. This is a single issue to all of the unmarried women.
