Saw this great takedown of the DNC show ... what a debacle it was:
The Democrats begin by picking a city that offends it’s greatest supporters, the unions. They follow this debacle by announcing an event for 100,000 at the speedway, they then cancel it. They announce the acceptance speech will take place in a stadium named for an evil bank. They announce 6,000 additional seats will be placed in the stadium to meet the large crowds expected. By all reports they cannot fill the stadium and shortly before the scheduled event cancel it on the laughable excuse that bad weather may be dangerous. This cancellation angers many who did plan on attending. There is a very public squabble televised regarding the democrats having removed the word “god” from their platform and failing to support Israel. They have to take 3 televised voice votes in which the planks are reinserted but only after loudly rejecting God and Israel 3 times. They ignore the actual vote and deem it passed in front of the cameras. The speakers publically ask for free contraception and if it fails that the innocent baby be allowed to be killed if it inconvenient. The entire spectacle is toped off by a speech that even Obama supporters find a failure. ( Dana Milbank)
NPR is throwing the Demonic-rat party under the bus and at the same time making the obligatory dig at the Republicans. These are strange times!
