Drunkblogging Barack Obama’s DNC Speech
6:40PM Shorter Biden: Barack Good. Not-Barack bad.
6:44PM You know what would have really saved GM? An honest bankruptcy where it could have shed thousands of pages of UAW work rules that make it uncompetitive versus the Japanese and Germans.
Just a thought.
6:45PM Oh, hi — I seem to have started tonight’s drunkblog without the usual introduction, foreplay, whatevs. Sorry about that. The Dayquil and scotch have combined to make something… evil.
Anyway, I’m sure President Empty Chair will be on soon, albiet not soon enough, given Biden’s mock-heartwrenching performance.
6:46PM Biden is stealing Romney’s “Great Guy But” routine? You’d think he had some sort of history with plagiarism.
6:50PM If Biden were any more heartfelt, he’d be reaching into Harrison Ford’s chest chanting “AB, USKI JAN MERI MUTTI ME HAI!.”
6:52PM “My mom.”
Drink.
6:52PM She used to call all her children “Joey?”
This explains a lot.
6:55PM One way or another, I’m totally looking forward to Biden’s run in 2016.
6:57PM WHOA! Biden was ballsy enough to reference the Simpson-Bowles Commission, which Obama turned his back on like prom date who wouldn’t give him even a little over-the-gown action.
6:58PM President Empty Chair isn’t even on yet, and already I have no idea how to top the Temple of Doom reference.
It’s gonna be a long night. Sorry.
6:59PM This “every father” pays the women in his own White House payroll less than the men.
7:00PM Ah, yes — the dignity of other people’s condoms.
7:01PM We got up? To vote for Romney?
Lord, I’m hoping.
7:03PM “I’ve got news for Governor Romney,” my pants are full of mayonaise.
7:04PM Man, I wish we could go back to 2008, when I controlled my wife’s healthcare.
7:06PM In lo-def, Biden’s nylon weave-thing looks… well, it doesn’t look good. But it looks slightly less like a nylon weave-thing.
7:06PM Crap. I should have saved the Temple of Doom reference.
7:07PM Barack has stoof up for me for four years? That explains the empty chair.
7:08PM So… that had a glancing connection to a parallel reality not entirely unlike our own.
#BIDEN2016
7:09PM Closing out Biden with Earth, Wind & Fire, because that’s sane.
7:11PM Dick Durbin has trouble pronouncing “Obama,” because of the syllables or something. Maybe the consonants.
7:11PM FORE MOAR YEERS!
7:12PM “These last four years have been hard,” says the man who won’t have to rely on Social Security or suffer the indignities of ObamaCare.
F*** you, Duck Durbin. F*** you.
7:13PM For. The. Last. Time. GM DID GO BANKRUPT.
That’s what Chapter 11 is, Dick.
7:14PM The “discrimination” of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” was passed by a Democrat Congress and signed by a Democrat President.
Just FYI, Dick.
7:16PM Well, at least the Democrats kept Dick short.
7:18PM I’ll wager $20 that Young Empty Chair’s rusted-through car was built by GM.
7:21PM Gutsy call.
7:22PM “This is a guy who has a backbone like a ramrod,” as the Saudi King can attest. Even the harem girls do not bow with such grace.
7:23PM Here we go.
7:24PM Who did the theme musc, Vangelis?
So very #FORWARD!
7:25PM FORE MOAR YEERS!
7:26PM I have daughters! Daughters who have female! And also a woman wife! And birth control that is free!
#WarOnWomen
7:27PM “I accept your nomination.”
Crap. Anyone one to buy a lot of Biden-Squeegee Guy 2012 bumper stickers, cheap?
7:27PM In 2004, he was a younger man. That’s the kind of rhetoric which…
…I got nothin’. You?
7:28PM “I know campaigns can seem small.”
But he brought Biden on board to counter that with gravitas.
7:30PM The teleprompter ping-pong effect has already become unbearable. It’s like a metronome at the most evenly-matched Wimbledon set EVAR.
7:30PM “Everyone gets a fair shot,” provided they have big-ass connections at the Department of Energy. Or the UAW. The rest of y’all, on your own.
7:31PM I need to refill my drink. Try not to miss me too much.
7:33PM You know the big part of an incumbent’s speech, where he celebrates his accomplishments before he spends a moment or two denigrating the other guy?
Did I pass out?
7:34PM The Cold War? Vietnam? Korea? 9/11? Berlin Airlift? Berlin Wall?
That’s nothing compared to passing a stimulus, bitches!
7:35PM FORE MOAR YEERS!
7:35PM “We are making things again.”
And selling them to…?
7:36PM “Made in America” is not how we stamp our goods, Mr. Empty Chair.
7:37PM “We’ve raised fuel standards so far, that by 2025,” you won’t be able to afford to buy a deathtrap built by UAW cronies.
7:38PM Taking credit for the oil boom on private lands while he shuts down public drilling is a neat trick. Next, he has a miniature guillotine that will chop a cigaret in half while leaving an audience member’s finger intact.
7:39PM “Climate change is not a hoax.”
Hide the decline!
Oh, wait — that’s been the whole strategy since about the middle of last year.
7:41PM Oh. My. He’s defending the as-is student loan program.
If you’re under 30, you’re fucked.
(I hope my editor will fix that.)
7:41PM MADE IN MURRICA!
7:42PM “Students, you’ve got to do the work.” Do you see any Chinese kids studying womyn’s issues? Hell, no!
7:42PM So… pandering.
7:43PM He’s ending the war in Afghanistan! The one he escalated, and that will return the country to the Taliban after 2014, anyway.
7:44PM Question, and this is all snark aside: What is this speech about?
What is it about?
I have no freaking clue.
7:45PM So many themes, so little connective tissue. There’s nothing to hang on to here.
7:46PM “Stuck in a Cold War mind-warp.”
Um… reset?
7:47PM Man, after a speech like this there’s no way in hell I’d ever vote in November to reelect Mitt Romney.
7:47PM Four trillion dollars is about 2.5 years of Obama deficits — “cut” over a decade.
7:48PM FORE MOAR YEERS OF CLINTON!
He said that, seriously.
7:49PM “You do the math.”
Oh, wait: “I refuse to go along with that — I never will.”
Math is hard.
7:49PM I REFUUS TO FACE THE MATH! I’M NOT GOING ALONG WITH THAT!
7:50PM “Yes, we wil reform and strengthen Medicare,” by eliminating waste and stuff, like government does, because that what it does, because I said it a lot.
7:51PM The speech is more like ping-pong than the teleprompter effect. It’s Me-MItt, Me-Mitt, Me-Mitt.
What’s missing?
FORE LAST YEERS!
7:52PM Now he’s cribbing the old Think Different ad from Apple. Pretty sure Biden had input on this part.
7:53PM Sigh. It was Clinton’s — pushed by Obama’s — Community Reinvestment Act that got people into mortgages they couldn’t afford.
Remember that. Get a tattoo or something.
7:54PM Groups! Groups! Groups!
Get into groups so I can corral you.
7:55PM Our founding ideals…
You could lob our founding ideals into that room of 20,000 people (downsized from 74,000) and not hit a single one of them. Not even come close.
7:55PM “You are the change.”
#FORWARD! to 2008.
7:57PM “You did that” X 3.
Veterans did that. Veterans who came home and started a small business didn’t do that.
7:58PM I don’t mind women making their own decisions, abortion included. I do mind having to pay to keep Sandra Fluke’s feet on the ceiling 24/7.
7:58PM “I’m the President.”
That is the smallest line I have heard a President say in 32 years of listening to presidents speak.
7:59PM He has another place to go. Hyde Park. On January 20.
7:59PM “I’m hopeful because of you.”
Sorry, dude — gone Galt.
8:01PM This is a second-rate State of the Union address. But as an incumbent accepting his party’s nomination for President, it is a second-rate State of the Union address.
8:02PM “I ask you tonight for your vote.”
Can I think about it?
8:04PM “I’m the President.”
I’m not sure if that was meant as a boast or a complaint. But as I think back on the last four years, it is certainly an unavoidable fact.
And that’s as much of a summation as I can manage after watching an empty chair give an empty speech.
At least it was something short of long.
Svedka tonight. Clinton used too much of the top shelf last night.
This thread was hard to find. The Vodkapundit link goes to last night’s drunkblog.
Like the world’s greatest bars – hard to find, impossible to forget.
I’m not watching tonight. I’m experiencing the finale ad filtered through the Stephen and Althouse.
Yes it was. Only 4 of us have found it.
Yes it was. Only 3 of us have found it.
They finally left Crazy Joe out of the basement – why is he whispering?
The Republicans are going to ruin ‘our values’ – does anyone look to the gov’t or politicians for their values?
President Obama knows…ALL.
So did Pope Paul V when he proclaimed the Copernican theory heretical in 1616.
Unfortunately for him it also happened to be reality.
I suspect the same fate awaits The One- to go down in history as a leader who let his dogmas shut off his ability to reason. Assuming he actually has ever bothered to try, which I seriously doubt.
cheers
eon
The Church’s mistake – and the whole thing has been misreported – such as it was, was to accept “settled science”, the Platonic theory. Always a bad idea. The Platonic model is not in the Bible, of course.
“The Dayquil and scotch have combined to make something… evil.”
The sun is down sir…you can now switch to NyQuil and Scotch. Do it right.
So true.
Or just go with cheap bourbon and branch, it’s the fiscally responsible thing, and while it won’t cure ya, it’ll do a good ’nuff job of making ya forget about it til it goes away.
Steve — So even through your Vodka induced fog, I hope you agree with me that Dirty Harry was correct in speaking to the empty chair at the RNC. It is the ONLY proof that The One was even listening. But, it is proof positive none the less since he was obviously there on stage with DH. I noticed that he looked a bit peaked. I wonder if it is his diet? Please say Obama eats dog more on your show. Even when he no longer matters in our political world. Please, please, please! I love it when you do that.
Joe wants us to believe that perpetual hand outs lead to independence.
The bread and circuses lead to total independence for the Ceasars.
The usurper still maintains(yeah, funny to an extent, I know)that we must spend more $$ to create jobs and fix the tanked ecconomy.
Who will pay for everything once they have eliminated capitalism??
We have faith in the decency of the American people, except the Republicans. You didn’t give up, you went on food stamps and disability. Obama didn’t quit on you; he went golfing.
I had to start drinking just to get myself to watch the upcoming fiasco!!!!!
Offense is the best defense.
yes it is!!!!!
Joe’s DNA let’s him see the future?
Yes, what this country needs is more art history and grievance studies majors.
Incomplete!
The cause of change is not yet accomplished. Yup – it never is.
Play some Earth, Wind, and Fire! Good Times!
Refill
This is some bad acting…..forced throat clearing, the somber tone…..BS!!!!!!!!
Everyone – mount up – we’re going to Belvedere, IL!!
Dick Durbin – Lincoln was a Republican; thanks for the reminder.
Cue piano music…
I typed this on my own. I didnt need the governments help.
The Govment is supposed to take care of the union brothers
Before the main event, anyone care to hazard a few guesses? In his speech, how many times will Obama use:
- The word “fair?”
- I, me, my, mine?
It is “fair” to say a whole boat loads of times. I am guessing at leat 100 times each.
skin in the game is probably not a good line for blow job bill
He had a sense of the depths of the recession – that’s why he was caught by surprise, see?
He’s after thought for me too – something in common.
And where are the unicorns?
Send in the unicorns
There ought to be unicorns
Or pass me a beer.
We don’t hire presidents, Bill. We elect them. I’m pretty sure that’s in the Constitution.
Killing Bin Laden was the right thing to do and I can know that without a perjuring adulterer like Bill Clinton to tell me that.
Yes and the gift we’re going to give you in November is a pink slip
It’s not raining in Charlotte.
Get outside now, quick.
Let in the teeming masses.
Barack can make it happen – he’s lowered the oceans, cut the defecit in half…….oh, wait.
Do I have time do get a refill?
Wha…? “This is the kind of guy who has a backbone like a …… ” what did he say …… nimrod?
What kind of kiss was that?
We couldn’t have HOPED for a better VP than Biden? Huh?
4 more beers
And hope is all we have – the hope that Romney is the next POTUS
Great point, president Distraction.
FOUR MORE BEERS!
Big decisions will be made by me, by Executive Order
The values that are driving me to drink
Oh, gawd … What’s he lying about now?
Except if your a union employee then you get a pass bro
this is what you call a slow start, yes?
oh wait here we go.
no, … not yet.
I’m on the edge of turning it off because it’s gonna be a huge, scurilous pack of lies, but so far it’s just claptrap.
I’m on the verge of turning it off because it’s boring – I feel I’ve heard every word of it already …
D
That’s because you have. It was pretty much the same nonsense he was pushing 4 years ago. His only hope is to perfect that Jedi Mind Trick that makes us all forget who has been president for the last 3 1/2 years.
Doesn’t he look like the evil Egyptian pharaoh that got nuked at the end of the movie “Stargate.”
“Largest middle class” my shiny white hiney. He’s exterminating the middle class.
Yes, Harry, he does. Perhaps Barack did a little acting on the side, just to make ends meet. You know, during the tough years of six-figure book deals.
You’re a better man than I am, Gunga Din!
When I decided to run jobs were going overseas. Dude, jobs have been going overseas for decades.
No no no … Everything that is wrong about the Obama administration of America, jackass.
All I can do is point and laugh. And cry. And laugh.
#Forward – over the cliff
Forward, comrades!
Unlike my sex life, it didn’t used to be quick and easy, but now it is
what?
he said, “we”.
President Obambus has found the plural after only four years.
Wau.
alert the media.
oh, wait, …
Not very problem can be solved by an edict from DC, but most can.
“You elected me to tell the truth…..”. then he lies about giving a crap about national security.
He’s running for a second term so he can talk about Real, Achievable … uh, PLANS!
I’m afraid of running out of vodka, you got a plan for that?
WE REINVENTED the auto industry? WTF?
I choose……………………Romney
Wait, what?! GM can’t make cars fast enough … but didn’t they just shut down the VOLT production line? And doesn’t his Secy of Labor, Solis, drive a GM car made in Canada?
What color is the sky in his delusional world?
Please give my cronies more money, I’m retiring soon
Can we choose a “path” to haul your boney, lying butt outta office?
I cannot watch the DNC, As a recovering alcoholic and democrat, I cannot go back. I voted for my last liberal in 1976(Carter-don’t shot me) and my last drink in 1981(got married-slight relapse). So have one or two for me and I will read your blog slowly.
Ha! You’re a sweetheart. I’m re-reading through the posts. I love yours.
We’re less dependent on foreign oil because of private drilling. We’ve opened land for EXPLORATION, not DRILLING. We know where the oil is sport – but you gotta bring it to the pump.
Text of the speech is out. It’s weak, astonishing weak. Wow–he’s toast. If I say burnt toast, does that make me a racist?
Not if you say “Vote burnt toast.”
The contrast between Clinton and this amateur is stunning. This is Hope and Change Part Two. Not just a fail, but a huge fail.
Oh I do I do I do I do believe in global warming …
No, droughts are not a joke – but I’m watching One.
gotcha yer reusable bags right here
so now droughts floods and wildfires are all caused by global warming……..
Last night I put up with about a half hour or so of the guy whose signature on my retirement certificate provides a permanent blot upon my escutcheon. This is as close as I care to get to that disgusting fascist Chi-town hack. And ya can tell those poverty pimpin’ race hustlers of the DNC I said so.
Hey, college is getting cheaper!!! Who the hell knew???
“Climate change is not a hoax.” Damn, and I thought the climate was always the same…at least it is in may parent’s basement.
my parents’
Maybe only 1.
Do we get a free pony?
It’ll cost ya nuthin!!!!!!!
Is it me or is this a collage of the last 3 State of the Union Addresses? Maybe I’m having flashbacks…
TahLeeban
Tolly Bon!!!
Our war will be over – geesh
he’s demanding veterans go naked?
I thought it was just me….. yeah he said if they take off their uniforms he’ll get them a good job.
now….. “All the evil statist totalitarian crap coming out of Washington….. like healthcare YOU DID THAT…. YOU DID THAT!” Is he freaking serious?
Yeah – that’s what we’re doing tonight – paying tribute to America’s soldiers. If so, let’s tie federal grant money to AF recruitment on campus.
We’ve strengthened old alliances. See Egypt.
HOPE
Obama, the speech is about Obama.
Here we go again, watch my hand not my moves
O conveniently left out that a good part of the domestic energy boom has come from facking which his EPA wants to abolish.
wasnt that what the stimulus was for?
Speechify me baby!
Spare me those nasty details.
roads bridges schools runways they didn’t build that, I’m gonna build that
“Time to do some nation building right here at home” – great line – time to make and buy American
This speech is like watching a train wreck of clown cars.
Still reading, but this may be the best line of the night…
Pure smoke and mirrors. The Rat party is all about command and control government tyranny and they can’t even mention the word socialism. Ever. They are so much creatures of the lie that they avoid the truth even when it would work better. Socialism works in Germany. It works because they can afford it. The DNC could sell socialism openly with Germany as the example. Just guarantee America all the freedoms of our Founders and cradle to grave protection from the vicissitudes of life. We have a thousand time the natural resources of Germany. We just don’t force our kids to study and apply themselves. We could make Germany look poor and weak.
Actually I think this is what Romney will do if given the chance. It wouldn’t be a bad life. But it would take tremendous changes in the American psyche. We are failing now because we have piss poor management and have saddled ourselves with a crushing debt and our elites have a get rich quick mentality. Probably won’t happen. I have just about zero hope for us and mankind in general. We just no longer have what it takes. We don’t raise our kids. We let them raise each other. And we choose flim flam men and fools (GWB) for our leaders.
“We can choose a future where we reduce the deficit.” Oh, yes, we can. Romney-Ryan 2012
(There he goes again, “fair.”)
He’s actually bringing up his Debt Commission? How stupid does he think we are?
He’s going to rebuild roads and bridges. We have nice sidewalks in my neighborhood (with the big Recovery signs since), but shuttered buildings. But those are nice false eyelashes, Michelle.
“Compromise”? Who said, “We won”?
I refuse to go along with budgets.
huh?
I refuse to acknowledge how economics work – I’m not going along with that.
Came on a little late- in time for “the pubs had a lot of words…but no details, no plan…” The Won’s plan…. nothing but “I will..” -will what…plan, details…just now…’my plan” details, ah! tax the rich!
The man’s a real demagogue…reads a speech well… wouldn’t know the truth if it kicked him in the Won.
Disgusted much? Who, me?
Where’s the beef? This is all filler.
Do people really buy this stuff? This is big lie BS, it freaks me out!
Now the Great Medicare-Slasher promises to make it whole, forever and ever.
All this man ever does is LIE and blind the stupid with strawman assertions.
Where’s the Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) with clear objectives and measurable milestones? What is he going to change to accomplish these things he has failed to accomplish so far?
7:49PM “You do the math.”
Yeah, Bubba said that earlier. Which of course was a lie. What Obambus is mostly doing is trying to lie his way past the arithmetic. He has now heard the word “arithmetic”, however. He has not yet quite figured out what it means. I don’t suppose he ever will.
We’re endowed by our Creator, that’s why it took three floor vote counts and a ramming through of the words “God-given” into the party platform.
they were tricked into signing…..who knew
Stephen, at 7:51 did you mean “lost” years? ‘Cause that’s sure what it has felt like.
I don’t have a house. I don’t have a car.
I spend all my money getting’ drunk in a bar.
I wanna be rich. I don’t have a brain.
Just give me a handout while I complain.
‘We honor the risk takers.’ Yeah, the IRS honors them a lot.
Since I don’t have enough booze on hand to stomach the SCOAMF’s speech-nor would my liver be able to handle the amount needed to do do- I’m following the speech via your drunkblogging. Truthfully, this is the best Obama has ever sounded.
I have booze, but my husband for some unreasonable reason objects to my putting bottles through the screen. So I can’t watch the SCOAMF.
As flying glass and consumer electronics don’t mix, it’s the smart move. I’m skipping the speech because I have high blood pressure. Stephen, in sacrificing his liver and his sanity, is saving lives damn it!
Gov’t is not the source of problems? You should read the Founding Fathers, because they had a more cautious attitude than yours.
Vodka and cherry kool-aid is the only way I’m getting through this.
Ha! Now that’s hilarious on at least two levels.
What do you want to bet all those American stick-flags will litter the floors in an hour?
You were the change we were waiting for – and if things aren’t right, it’s because of you.
You did that x 3 = you did that three times.
Special interests? Thank God there are no special interests influencing gov’t under Obama.
I am the President
“It wasn’t about me” — Amazing, his face didn’t crack one bit. There’s your MSM QOTD, fer sure.
I know all, I see all and I listen to all my hand picked leftist radical advisors.
Bow to me you morons and we together can make this country into something new and short lived. But at least I’ll get the credit.
Thanks,
Barack
The election of 2008 was not about Me, it was about you! So this is where he stops blaming Bush and starts blaming us. Because we have failed. HIM
“Together”
Amazing. I already pointed out Obambus discovery of the plural. Some good ol’ fashioned collectivism, is going to be how he continues to try to dig out of the, “You didn’t build that”.
“WE built that, yes you fat slob on the couch, every man a king or queen, and the women, too!”
He’s held in his arms … okay, that does it
The problem is I think you kept morphing into a lolcat halfway through. No, wait, that’s not a problem. It was funny. Or maybe I drunk too much.
Thank you for watching so I didn’t have to.
Not good at reading polls or anything else for that matter.
My vodka bottle is empty (although I do have a bottle of Korean vodka left, but that is another story) – please end – I need to hear what Brit and the others have to say (except for Juan – I think O’Reilly said it all the other night)
You know what gives me hope? The prospect of your electoral defeat.
y’know, so far this is far more tedious and far less – vile, I guess – than I expected. come on Barack baby, wrap it up quick now.
Here it comes, the Orwellian crescendo …
My God, Drunk blogging is a necessity.
It looks like this election is going to be all about Math vs. Emotions.
An excellent cut-and-paste speech. You know, on the grand scale of cut-and-paste speechifying.
I just heard Obama claim a scripture said something about hope.
No such Bible verse.
I’m pretty sure about this.
But the Arab Dem was smiling, maybe it came from the koran.
Yeah, I saw that too. Then she covered her mouth with her hand. Not that that would mean anything. She is, after all, a third-class entity in the Muslim world and would do well to stifle any sort of opinion that might arise autonomously in her brain. Oh, wait, this is America!
I just did a quick search of the two versions of the Koran, or Qur’an, or whatever that I have on my hard drive, and didn’t find the phrase there either.
At least one paragraph which everyone will agree with, even a brief spat of praise for entrepreneurism.
One dud, We did it together- through the gov’t! then a long chain of we’s and “you did it”s- subtext-by following me??
Hot air, but the worshipful faces of the faithful- scary!
I almost feel sorry for that stadium of vapid followers waiting for their king to deliver something inspiring. but then again, *glug*glug* no, I don’t.
Now that this is all over, I take comfort in the following “tells” of the Obama campaign: (1) they’re having to use Clinton, who they despise; (2) they are fighting on defense, not offense, going to states Obama won last time; (3) they’re losing the cash race big time. Add to that a totally amatuerish lack of control over the convention, and you have a weak group in chaos. They know it deep down. This is the toughest campaign any of these lightweights has ever run (usually they get Obama in IL, or Deval Patrick in MA), and it shows. Get ready for the carpet bombing shock and awe starting tomorrow.
Spot on. His speech did not add ANYTHING to his case for a second term. I would imagine that of those relative few who turned on the speech, most changed channels before it was over.
Well, he looks a lot more at ease hugging his family than he did at the podium.
I think it’s time to send him back to his family, like permanently.
He gets $200k a year for the rest of his life, you know. With his millions from his books he never has to work again for the rest of his life. If you consider the damage he could do with an actual job, I’m willing to pay my share of that indefinitely
.
D
“…he never has to work again…” Again?
If I didn’t know better, I’d think that “I’m the President” nonsense was a crib of the same line from The American President.
… and I don’t know better.
… and the speech is just as bad as the film was.
“I ask you tonight for your vote.”
I assume that it would be impolitic to say GFY?
I prefer “Is h*ll frozen over? No? Ask me again when all the little devils are ice-skating.”
Actually my answer to Organize for America, the FIRST time they called and got me and asked me to come campaign for the Won was “I would crawl through a blinding blizzard, on broken glass, on hands and knees to vote the miserable SOB out of office.”
Long pause. “I guess that’s no?”
Two hours later they called again.
HOWEVER I got my first GOP call today. I was exciting. I told them to save their money and time and go convince the unmotivated instead.
No, no, no. Do what I do. Tell them that you can’t wait to cast your vote for Obama. Let them think we’re all good little O-bots. If they then ask if you will knock on doors, make calls, donate, etc., then tell them, as I do, I’ll be sure to do all that, just as soon as I can find a job and have some disposable income (boy, is that an accurate phrase for an Obama campaign donation or what?).
“7:58PM I don’t mind women making their own decisions, abortion included. I do mind having to pay to keep Sandra Fluke’s feet on the ceiling 24/7.”
Yee dogs! That’s perfect.
My gosh, look at all those American flags. Pity the poor janitors. Oh, look! There’s an overwrought libtard crying her eyes out. Well, at least she’s still semi-conscious.
well well, he did end it there. huh. so this is the flip-side of Romney’s strategy. Obambus basic argument is, “Four more years!” Romney’s basic argument is, “I’m not Obambus”.
And on that basis, American will decide.
That, and half an Ambien with your morning cocktail.
About O’s speech; the tallest tree in a forest of B.S. He stinks.
Whew, a holy man in front of a temple of vampires.
And now we pray? OH!, that’s right, God’s name was un-unanimously returned to the Hypocrat platform.
David Brooks (yeah, I know) just said on PBS that Clinton was the highlight of the convention.
What does it mean, oh great Obama, when your own adherents are damning you with such faint praise?
Just LOOK at them. They’re still praying. They’ve dropped all their flags on the floor and now they’re showing how incredibly devout they all are. Not a Darwin-fish among them.
Of course they’re praying now. Obama gave them permission to pray now. He wants them to pray now because it’s good optics.
I find Obama very educating. Every time he comes on the TV set, I go into the other room and read a book.
Remember, we’re fighting for this President’s honor, which is far more than he’s ever done.
This is a bit long and you certainly don’t have to watch in it’s entirety, but it certainly corresponds with the DNC’s motto of FORWARD!

well, krauthammer thinks it is a negative for the messiah……..
Good ol’ Chuck. The problem is, you never know what will come out of his mouth tomorrow. Which is why I keep my faith in Mark Levin. He’s never let me down.
I have nothing but confidence in Barack Obaam, and very little of that.
Paying Obama’s salary is like feeding hay to a dead horse.
FOUR MORE BEERS! FOUR MORE BEERS!
The Obama Presidency is like the ending of the movie “Brazil”. You think you’re living a peaceful life far away from the chaos with the love of your life, but you’re really being slowly drugged to death while strapped into a doctor’s chair in a soulless clinical interrogation room.
In what certainly seems like four score and seven years ago, American voters, deceived by a man of a true nature most foul and his media propaganda ministers, brought forth, upon this Nation, a profoundly warped man, conceived who knows where for certain, who is dedicated to the proposition that all men are created weak and subservient to his every insane will and whim.
Now we are engaged in a great battle, testing whether this nation, or any nation so burdened, and so assaulted, can long endure. We are met here on a great internet battlefield, with compatriots in the Tea Party Freedom Movement and compatriots on the radio waves, of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of our lives in honor of our forefathers who dedicated their lives that this nation might live vigorous and free.
It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
It is for us, the living, to be dedicated to the restoration of freedom, liberty, rule of law, progress and sanity which our Founders so nobly brought about. It is for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they so long ago gave the full measure of devotion – that we here highly resolve that our Founding Fathers shall not have labored in vain; that this nation shall have a rebirth of freedom and responsibility; and that this government will once again be of the people, by the people, for the people, and that we will not allow abominations like Barack Hussein Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and their gang of quislings to cause it, and it’s shinning light, to perish from the Earth.
Huzzah!!! Brilliant! Absolutely.
He could have spent an hour repeatedly saying …stuff… like, “Obey my zorrg! Worship my nose!” and it would have made about as much sense.
However, I am gratified that my prediction made on Dr. Hanson’s column the other day was correct. He basically said, “Everything I’ve done is right, and I’m going to do even more of it. Now give me all your dam’ money to do it with.”
You have to admire his consistency. It takes a genuine, certified head case to keep digging when the hole is this freaking deep.
I suspect history will call this the best pro-Romney speech this election year.
cheers
eon
“Everything I’ve done is right, and I’m going to do even more of it. Now give me all your dam’ money to do it with.”
granted, i could not stomach seeing or hearing this cretin and could only handle obama’s speech in tiny bits but my impression was that he was speaking as though he has not been president the last four years as he attempted to address every balkanized victim group by promising each their holy grail
kudos to all who sat through this thing – i was unable yet if i did i’m sure i would have a broken t.v., broken hands, broken drywall, a sore throat, and upset neighbors
Well, thank God THAT’S over with. Now let us move on to crushing this twerp.
I was hoping he was going to say “join me and my choom gang and we’ll change the world”. But nope instead we got the same speech he always gives.
Here’s the best one, Stephen:
7:28PM “I know campaigns can seem small.”
But he brought Biden on board to counter that with gravitas.
Hot coffee came out my nose!
I would also note that Obama was really serious last night. I could tell, because he was not droppin’ his ‘g’s. Not droppin’ your ‘g’s AND Biden? Now that’s what I call gravitas.
I bet every time Barack Obama passes a mirror, he stops to look at himself and say, “I am the President.”
Thanks Stephen,
for excellent commentary. My regrets for not dropping by in real time; Obama’s speaking style just wears on me. *Do* hope you will be drunkblogging the debates though!
Most especially VP!
Best Regards,
Mr. Green is correct. We do not label our products “Made in America.” They are marked “Made in USA” or “Product of USA.” Obama has made that mistake in the past. If he knew anything about manufacturing he would not have made the mistake.
Steve — Thank you for watching that horrible Trainwreck, plane crash, Earthquake, and tropical storm rolled into one. I couldnt watch because I am in a transient program and we are not allowed to drink. I nearly got kicked out because I kept throwing up knowing that it was on the damn TV. I was not even in the same room, and it made me nauseous. I am getting some of it little by little through PJTV. The doses are necessarily small, since I cannot have the antidote to the left’s poison. Even so, I see why you drink. Have a couple for me. Nah! Have a whole bottle for you since you had to watch the damn thing! Obama eats dog!LMBFAO Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
