The Democratic National Convention has descended in to chaos today both inside and outside the Time Warner arena in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Following the debacle earlier today of the ramming through over the loud objections of delegates of pro-God, pro-Israel language to the platform, fire marshalls have locked down the arena leaving a reported thousands of credentialed delegates and reporters stranded outside.

Reporters on Twitter are sending out on scene reports and photographs with commentary such as "mayhem", "fail" and "farce".

"Democratic convention descending into farce. After "booing God" debacle, delegates, and media locked out of the convention by fire marshals" , Nico Hines, Times of London.

"Complete nightmare for the DNC. Thousands of delegates and media stuck outside. Fire marshals have closed the building. #DNCFAIL", Matt Spence, Times of London.

Apparently teleprompter said that no matter who yelled what, it’s a go for reinstatement ala damage control. And spewing the lie that BO wanted it done.


Obama knows better than to lay out his plan direct for Israel and our God before the election.

Just celebrate the “democracy!” It’s the Arab spring! The Muslim Brotherhood are peaceful and wonderful!

Before questioning the spelling of a main word here on FR, it is best to check The 2009 FreeRepublic Lexicon (Lingo, Dictionary, Lore Handbook) - UPDATE TIME!, which BTW needs an update. Keyword "lore" is an alternate place to check.

Now don't you feel like a maroon? :) /gentle teasing

Elizabeth Warren on now...OMG..too funny. “I never thought I would be the warm up act for Bill Clinton”.

Does that make her a "fluffer"?

Just kidding, we were raised on cartoons. You, apparently, were raised on Sesame Street or some other liberal Commie crap.

1968! Where’s Abbie?

Abbie couldn't make it because he suicided in 1989.

Truth be known it was locked down for a security sweep because Bam Bam decided to waltz in... Unexpectedly.

The fire marshall thing is just a deflection, but if there is too much flak in the news cycle tomorrow, it’ll either be a “credible threat” from the preapproved DHS list of usual suspects, or the fire marshall will be racist.

Yer dang right! I've often suspected DFU was really Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.

Well, not often. Actually, just now.

I could be wrong about that, of course.

As is drug-addled Jerry:

On November 14, 1994, Rubin jaywalked on Wilshire Boulevard, in front of his penthouse apartment [11] in the Westwood area of Los Angeles, California. It was a weekday evening and traffic was heavy, with three lanes in each direction. A car swerved to miss Rubin but a second car, immediately behind the first, was unable to avoid him. He was taken to the UCLA Medical Center, where he died 14 days later. He is interred in the Hillside Memorial Park Cemetery in Culver City, California.

Damn, all those people just dying to get a piece of Slick Willy! Probably had to keep them out because of the larger crowd tonight wanting to see the Pimp in Chief instead of the smaller crowd tomorrow night to see the Food Stamp President.

Have been under the weather and don’t know if I have the energy. Hitler would go crazy when he heard the reports from Steiner.

Debbie Blabbermouth is really out to lunch and just goes down the talking points no matter what is asked. She has been wonderfully embarrassing.
