I would vomit, but I don’t want to waste the good booze I worked for and paid for.
The delusion is strong with this one.
Hindenberg.
This is a disaster.
What is she saying? She is all over the place.
Im not watching, I would gag too much. Im watching the NFL on NBC. Or maybe I will watch “Dancing With Wolves” in honor of Elizabeth Warren LOL
I love how Liz takes a big breath before she tells another whopper... “Here I go again!”
President Obama leading the way off the cliff!
Jon Corzine-RICH!
she fuels the ENVY and hate corporations and the “filthy rich”..what a lying moron!
Cheated on Mortgages????
who set up the crisis????Oh, God I can’t stand this lying, this demagogury..but it sure seems to work with “Da Masses!”
Jon Corzine-RICH!
Barryboy sure is getting rich at the top.
Wow, these crowd shots make WalMart people look freaking normal.
No wonder they shut the arena down.
They don’t want to let these people OUT!
I find it amusing as hell (yet predictable)that the only speakers the Dems can seem to get, are ALL KNWON LIARS
Speakers tonight generally pretty crummy. Will be interesting to see if Clinton can overcome the change of platform debacle. Or if he will be as good as he was four years ago.
Usually Conventions give the candidate a bounce, this might be the one time where Obama actually loses points, especially after that Boo God Boo Israel debacle that went on today. Just play that video in Florida all day long
Pelosi - RICH
“Obummer knew for years that we had to clean up Wall Street” - that’s why he took so much money from them in 2008
“Corporations aren’t people”
If there weren’t people working, who are the heart and sould of the corp, there wouldn’t be a corp, Pocahaha
“Obummer believes in a country where no one gets a free ride” Except the millions more are now on food stamps, disability, etc., etc.
Blah blah blah level playing field.
President Obama will make this right..
She’s hyperventilating!
