    Just browse a little on their website site and you'll smell the stink of their Communist, anti-American garbage.

    And the Democrats puts on stage the son of one of its founder.

    Unbelievable!!!

    Esto de los Democratas ya es Comunismo y mentira a lo descarao (con la ayuda de la prensa liberal). Y el pueblo Americano comiendo mierda.

    Coñoooo....

    Come for the anti-Americanism, stay for the firing squad.

  • FreedomForCuba

    matt,

    This is insane...This is the garbage the DNC legitimizes.

  • mattmurphy

    FreedomForCuba: Here's the thing -- I always cringe a little when I hear folks say the Democrats are basically commies or socialists (the last one I can sort of go with under certain definitions).

    I think this is usually overblown and it's not my style. I've learned too much about Communism to just equate it with a major political party in a free society -- even one as loathsome as the Democratic party. I also try to distinguish between the party's leadership and its members: I have friends who are Democrats, my mom was one until a few years ago, etc., etc.

    But then the Dems go and do stuff like...this. Nominate a guy who spent twenty years following a bloviating, racist preacher who hates America. Allow Jimmy Carter to give a place of honor at the Democratic convention to Michael Moore, a guy who once compared Iraqi suicide bombers to the Minutemen of the Revolutionary War. Go bonkers over a politician who is so dang proud of his mom for founding a racially divisive political party whose apparent patron saint is a homicidal Argentinian bandit.

    Why are they so solicitous of people who hate America? Why do they think flushing more taxpayer money down a toilet will solve our problems? Are they really so far-gone as to think that Sandra Fluke is oppressed because she has to buy her own blasted birth-control pills rather than coercing the Catholic church to buy them for her?

    (Incidentally, think of that last point for a moment. Tell me if you can think of ANY Democratic talking point from the last year that so vividly shows why they are not a serious party and deserve to be turned out on their ear at the first available opportunity.)

    I've been relying on the press and the Internet for news of the convention. My one moment of brief viewership came from a live feed at halftime of the Giants-Cowboys game.

    I know I should watch it -- "if you don't know your opponent's arguments, you don't know your own," and so forth. But I just can't. They make me sick.

  • Honey

    They make me sick, too. It's an ugly job, but somebody's gotta do it.
    I did it this time. Someone else can do it next time.
    I am still reeling from the all that horse manure and those adoring crowds.

    Incidentally, do yourselves a favor. Go listen to Cardinal Dolan's speech from the end. It is a sally against all that the dems did. I believe it is deliberate the way he skewers them. If the "pious" looking crowds as he spoke, understood what he was saying to G-d in their behalf, they would have booed, shouted him down and thrown him off that stage. Too funny.

  • FreedomForCuba

    matt,

    If I get overblown is because of the overwhelming evidence display during this DNC.

  • FreedomForCuba

    Correction,

    If I get overblown in my statements is because of the overwhelming evidence displayed during this DNC.
