The DNC As I Saw It
TownHall ^ | 9/9/11 | Derek Hunter

Posted on 09/09/2012 8:20:50 AM PDT by KansasGirl

I spent this week in Camp Vagina, aka the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte. I call it Camp Vagina because attendees heard more about genitals than any ideas on how to fix President Obama’s broken economy. Overall, for a convention to promote a campaign with the theme of “Forward,” Democrats sure spent a lot of time looking backwards.

Trying to get the audience to look backwards makes perfect sense when you consider the endless parade of parasites and degenerates who marched across the stage.

Here’s a diary, of sorts, of what I saw.

The DNC was gaveled to order by convention Chairman Tony Villar.

You probably know him by another name – Antonio Villaraigosa, mayor of Los Angeles … the man who, just the Friday before, told the media Republicans couldn’t just trot out speakers with Hispanic surnames and expect to win Hispanic votes.

Tony knows well what’s in a name, particularly an Hispanic name. He was Tony Villar, regular guy, for his entire life until he entered politics and added his wife’s maiden name to his in an attempt to appeal to the large Hispanic vote in California.

The story goes he added his wife’s name as a sign of his love for her. He loved her so much he soon thereafter was caught in an affair with a local TV reporter. But when measured against the cast of characters the Democrats trotted out there, Villar was par for the course.

The New York Times would run this on the front page if he had an "R" by his name. Shame on the press. Shame on them.

Yep.

I thought the entire column was a fantastic slap in the face to the Democrat party and exactly how an honest media that was not part of the PR arm of the Rat party would cover it.

The money line:
When it was clear he didn’t have anywhere near the two-thirds majority needed to pass the amendment, Villar did what every good Democrat does when they don’t get their way – he pretended he did and declared victory.

“Forward” = “Progressive”

I believe that what was confusing him was that the successful results of the vote was on the teleprompter, telling him that "the ayes have it," which was conflicting with his "lying ears." It took a DNC handler on stage with him to set him straight and "stick to the script."
