Republican Convention Thread

[anitram]

I read this observation elsewhere, and bang on:

Only at the RNC can people who one night before asked the country to do service for their country then now boo when Giuliani mentions community organizing.

 

[Irvine511]

she seems fine. i see nothing remarkable, bad or good so far.

 

[Irvine511]

she's using paper it seems ... no teleprompter.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

I am sorry I tried to give them a chance this week, but I can't give in and watch this convention.

Who knew that community organizing was such a shameful thing to do.

Gosh golly shucks, but the introduction of her family is heartwarming.

i do agree.

and that's why she was chosen.

that, and she supports forced pregnancies.

mushy and warm and fuzzy ain't it....

 

[LMP]

I don't want you to point at me, Sarah Palin. Don't you point at me, Palin.

 

[VintagePunk]

"a small town mayor is like a community organizer, except that they have actual responsibilities..."


...that they essentially pass off onto administrators because they're incompetent.

I wish I could be there to fill in the blanks. Such BS.

God, she has a whiny voice.

 

[Irvine511]

this is like a Rob Reiner movie ... only in opposite world.

Really, I may as well quit my job right now and go work for Exxon!

(Note: While I am not a community organizer myself, I work for a community organizing group...in NYC. Suffice it to say there's no love lost where Giuliani is concerned...)

 

[LMP]

Hey, that definition of politics was in my Government book.

 

[anitram]

Next time somebody on this board complains about how Obama doesn't talk about policy specific, I'll throw up. Palin has said NOTHING substantive at all, and neither has anyone else tonight. What a joke.

 

[phanan]

I obviously don't agree with things she says, and yes, she's not being specific on anything, but she's doing a good job with her speech, I must say.

how DARE you attack Gov. Palin's family!

No shit and to think my ideal job is to help others and my degree was focused on helping others in depressed areas. What a shit person I am!

You just want a job with NO RESPONSIBILITIES.

Sarah explained it for you tonight.

 

[Irvine511]

my dad just said: "she's a sham."

you should have waited a little while

she has touched on

Georgia
Russia
Iran

Energy
Geo thermal
wind and solar power

American workers

Obama
this is a man who has authored two memoirs
but, not one law on reform,

 

[LMP]

Cracking jokes about the stage set-up of the DNC while images of Mt. Rushmore and the Liberty Bell flash behind you is awesome.

Talking to people with nuclear weapons? That's absurd.

Complaining about Obama while offering nothing about what she would do is even better.

"touched on" is being generous.

 

[Irvine511]

she's now beginning to sound like a parody of a Republican speech. he'll raise your taxes! the death tax! boooo!

 

[anitram]

She lied about the bridge to nowhere (this is well documented).

She said nothing of interest on Georgia/Russia whatsoever except to bash Obama.

And her energy plan is to drill (hey we'll take it over here, she just gave TransCanada $500 million).

Phail.

 

[LMP]

Or the "democratic presidential nominee."

that is all us old guys have to look forward to, these days

 

[Irvine511]

wow -- she brought up the Obama presidential seal.

i'm looking in deep's direction. did you write this? be honest.

That's what I just said to my sister. lol

 

[ImOuttaControl]

I do have to say...its fun lurking in these forums during both the DNC and the RNC watching wingnuts go crazy! lol
