CNN is covering more of the platform change than the speakers...and they’re ripping the Dems to shreds over it.
Anderson Cooper is openly mocking them.

Loving the coverage tonight. :-)

If that Garden Gnome had a longer jacket and a nice straight skirt, she would look better.

I watched CNN during the RNC and was surprised how positive they were...I was surprised and enjoyed it.

Almost all. But honorable mention goes to anti-semitism, partial-birth abortion and atheism.

I want to end access to FREE birth control.
I see no reason why any person can’t...

1. Close her legs
2. Dig a buck’s worth of change out of the car seats to get a vending machine condom.
3. Keep one’s penis inside the undies.

Here is my pre-opinion...not that it matters, but I think bubba will go so far out of his way to OVERSELL obama that no one will believe he is anything close to sincere. It will be a subtle but complete putdown of obama. Watch.

I see Planned Parenthood is ahead of BJ Clinton. There’s a certain symmetry there.
