LOL thats the REAL Michelle Obama..yesterday the Michelle that you saw on TV, the one pretending that she gave a damn about people, yeah all a farce..the real Michelle is the one that you saw right there, rolling her eyes, or the same one that during the 9/11 ceremonies last year was caught on tape saying “All this for an f’n flag”

No, no, no.

Constitution limits a President to two elected terms, or one if he serves more than two years of another President’s term.

This Clinton is done as CIC. He’s angling for a First Man slot now.

The media now making meaningless comments.

5000 delegates 15000 reporters

and the reporters have access to ALL the delegate perks. Massages, sushi bars, aromatherapy, nap rooms, swag,

FNC just missing the image of Obama using a southerner to try and get obama southern votes. (remember the thinktank that sought out clinton as part of a souther strategy)

She didn’t look like “over the top happy”, more like “oh crap, how is Barry ever going to top THIS?”

This is Clinton’s surprise...wind the crowd up so tight there’s no way Obama will be seen as anything but second-best.

Those delegates are going to be thinking about Clintons speech on the trip home, not Obamas.

Obama had to come out on the stage and drag Bill out of the spotlight! I wondered why Billy Boy suddenly began wrapping it up - Bambi was standing just off-stage with the hook.

I didn’t think Michelle looked happy either. She knows that the Dems like Clinton better than O, and she DOES NOT like it.

I'm actually enjoying the Bill Clinton speech, not because I agree with a dang thing he's saying, but it gives me a chance to relive the good old days of Ken Star, Impeachment, Monica Lewinsky, etc.

Does anyone else think clinton had his nose fixed to look like the head of a penis? And is that why women love him?

“Clintoon’s face still has a penis for a nose.”

I wouldn’t mind having his plastic surgeon working on my face, but I did think they forgot about doing something about his nose.

Then again...Pinocchio’s nose only grew worse when...

Fluke has a boyfriend, some rich rocker dude who wears jeans filled with holes.

And that's who should be helping with the birth control expenses.

Obama should have interrupted Clinton’s speech saying “Hey that speech was good but Beyonce is the best singer ever” LOL

I’m starting my own sub-Saharan African (It’s Ok, I get to make this joke, I’m of Afrikaner descent.) dictatorship after tonight’s addition to the swear jar. I’m going to call it the “Union of Absolutely Nobamia”.

Within two weeks, Absolutely Nobamia will have a larger GDP than Lesotho. Within two months, we’ll be loaning money to the US.
