Official 2012 DNC thread

I love Clinton's feel-good code words of wanting to "...invest in education and infrastructure and scientific and technological research...."

All that means is they want to spend taxpayer dollars on more gov't programs and since the gov't doesnt create a single dollar of revenue they must take it from somewhere.

MSNBC: Fantastic speech!!!!

Still waiting for the "tingle up my leg" comment though. Surely it is coming.

And somehow the Dems still manage to not talk specificially about any budget or economic plan the whole time or what Obama is going to do in the future. Just generic words and shoddy numbers throw around. More of the same.

Saw this earlier today.
The sad thing is the DNC gets their way despite the opposition of the delegates.

Yeah sounded about evenly divided or slightly against. They seemed to be fine with no god in their platform.

We all know the plan. Tax and spend or vice versa. Spend and print works for them right now, since half don't even pay taxes.

I hope you understand why I will not even begin to read that article.

the gist of it is that Slick Willie lied through his teeth in an effort to make it look like he and Hillary really think Obama is doing a great job

Didn't really care to watch Bill if he's just going to sell his reputation for the party. In just about every TV appearance for the last four years, he's given the impression he's not happy with an Obama presidency. Now I'm sure he's not dying for Mitt, but to sell Obama seems just partisan.

You admit you do not know what Romney will do but your advise is to vote Romney or stay home. Thank you for your words of wisdom.

I laid out what my options were and you lambasted me. There are 3 options, with 2 of them you either get Barry or it's with equivalent of casting a vote for Barry. With the other at least it is an unknown. IMO it can't and won't be worse than Barry. If you don't like any of the 3 options, stay home. It's really a simple concept.

How can you say this? We are still waiting to know what direction that is, specifically.

Sorry guys, had more important things to do last night. Romney is more of a "conservative" than Barry is. At least he is a capitalist. I firmly believe that he will point this country in a better direction. He has proposed a flat tax, he has sworn to repeal Barrycare (and it will be a replacment not a repeal only), and I believe his administration will be at least translucent if not transparent. I don't believe that voting in a presidential election constitutes selling ones soul however so I wouldn't go that far. And yes, I will vote for Romney instead of GJ to save a buck, and 10 of my kids bucks, and 1000 of my grandkids bucks. If you are firm in your belief that voting your conscious is the thing you need to do, then go right ahead. I am not trying to convince you to do otherwise. I am simply making a statement about voting a 3rd party. When we have finally gone the way of the Motherland and have a parliament and a prime minister/president elected by the parliament as an aggregate of 5 or 6 parties, then it will be somewhat important to vote "your" party, but as long as the 3rd party has not a chance in hell of winning this election, I am going to vote for what I perceive to be the lesser of two evils.

If you read about the Clintons and what they think of Barry, it is a surprise that they even can be in the same town. Clinton just sold his soul and I FIRMLY believe that Barry has dug up some dirt on either he or Hillary and that this is a pretty good blackmail job.

Or maybe he's just an egomaniac who could not pass up the opportunity to show off.

Saw it. She did ok considering she's a law student. Flat in a lot of places. Just an advocacy speech that seemed oddly placed.
Click to expand...

advocacy about what?

I'll be honest, she really pisses me off. Given that she has abilities, skills and smarts sufficient to attend Georgetown Law but then goes on a mission to force them to give free contraceptives even though it is against their mission is incredibly selfish. If this is the mentality of Americans then we are all screwed.

So did anybody watch Sandra Fluke? Wonder what her message was.
Click to expand...

I saw her, not impressive at all imo. It was her same ole message.


I thought the DNC had a great night Tuesday.

Wednesday night all the earlier speakers were terrible, imo. I would give them all a C-D if grading them

Elizabeth Warren fired up the crowd good with her 100% far left wing garbage. I would give her a B-.

Bill Clinton hit a grand slam with his speech. It was one of his best if not the best speech I have heard him give. His delivery was spot on. The content is questionable as with 99% of politican speeches. Bill would get an A+.

Clinton gave a very good speech last night. IMO, he brought some much needed energy and direction to the democrats. I''m looking forward to what Obama says tonight.

It is well known that Bill and Obama are not good friends.

I can't believe all the hate some claim there is between the Clintons and Obama. Hillary does work for Obama.

If all the hate was there, I don;t see Hillary working for him.

I think she would do it if she thought it would help her politically.
