Democratic Convention opens with a bang

[DeeJayH]

I don't call Obama by his middle name any more.......That said I have a real problem why my left wing friends have a problem with it......It would be different if it was not his name but it is.......He must not mind the name or otherwise he would change it...........I personally believe the name thing is a whole lot about nothing...........

How about the Obama bin Biden ticket :doh

 

[phrank]

One of the greatest Quarterbacks of all time in the NFL, Sonny Jurgenson's, middle name is "Adolf"

From what I remember, Sonny didn't want people to call him "Adolf" because he didn't want the negativity that went with the name. My money says Obama's marketing people don't want Hussein because of the same reason.

I can't wait to see tonights soap of the DC. I'll bet Hillary is now saying Obama is now ready for that 3:00 a.m. call.

 

[Navy Pride]

I still think its fair game to call someone by their middle name.....Now if it was not his name or is a slang name then no...............

Or and as far a Jurgenson goes I have called him much worse when the Redskins use to beat my Steelers........

 

[GottaHurt]

So I'd ask you, if you're talking about all time great quarterbacks, would you talk about Sonny, or Adolf, Jurgenson?

I'd call him Roger, as in Staubach.

Jurgenson svcked, so you can call him whatever you want, but certainly not one of the best QB's ever.

Obviously you're a Redskins fan, good luck, you'll need it this year.

Go Cowboy's!!!

As for the 2008 Clinton National Convention, it came in with a whimper.

I sat patiently with the Kopechne family hoping Teddy boy would gasp his last breath, he's close, the champagne is on ice.

Michelle did nothing to erase her "I hate America" image. Appearance in this day and age is important, and frankly, she has too many teeth per square inch, frightening really. Her ho hum speech didn't fool anyone who doesn't believe that Obama is their demi-god.

There's no room in the White House for Michelle to be the First Lady, cleaning lady yes, First Lady, no.

The best part so far, the buzz isn't about Obama, it's about Hillary and her supporters, and Hillary, Chelsea or Bill haven't even been at the podium yet.

Please quote me where I've stated this is what the entire right would do?

The inference was clear.

In my first post I spoke about those that are currently trying to paint him as a "secret muslim"

"Those" indicates plural.... I counted 1

In my next post I talk about the "extreme right".

Hence the inference given your example of 1

Where in the WORLD are you getting this is what I think of the entire right? Please, show me? Quote me? Do something to justify this rant of yours?

Well consider you consider yourself "right" I concede this point.

Tell me where I said that the entire right wing would do this?

You alluded this to be a right wing thing.

I think it would have done him no favors, and just help the people smearing him. People like GottaHurt and TOT and others that routinely refered to him as "Hussein" would've been calling him Barack anyways. Extremists or conspiracy theorists would've likely tried to paint it as yet another thing he's "hiding", just like they've tried to do with the Madrassa thing or trying to point to him wearing an african garb when visiting there as proof he's a muslim or at least to give that idea.

ToT is banned. I don't think it would be right to consider him since he can not defend himself, besides he seems a bit crazy....


Gottahurt? if true is a wopping 2. hardly an issue to make such a little fuss about.

I do think it would've hurt him as joe average uninformed political follower gets it, and begins to believe stuff. I have actually ran into people in real life that honestly believe he's a secret muslim. I've got in arguments with my mother who still believes in part that he is somehow tied to muslims.

I haven't, and I won't comment on your mother.

Ever listen to the republican talk shows often? Limbaugh repeatedly used the "Hussien" thing, as did for a long time many of his callers when talking about it. You still will hear people calling in occasionally claiming how he's tied to Muslims.

I listen to him everyday for entertainment. He rarely refers to his middle name, and have heard him say it was of no matter other than the left trying to hide it.


His biggest thing today is carter calling obama a "black boy" and wondering how long he could get away with that. rather humerous.

Yes, sadly, there are either uninformed or extremist right wingers out there that DO believe he's either a muslim or secretly working with muslims.

Where are they? So far I count 1 confirmed and one alleged. Where are these people? :roll:


If I had stated that extremist left wingers believed something like this you would cackle how I was being dishonest. :roll:

I'm sorry, I'm not going to sit here and rail about every and any poster that jumped upon the "He's not telling us everything about himself", "he's a muslim/was a muslim", "hussein hussein hussein", band wagon. Furthermore, DP is not a accurate subsection of America as a whole in regards to politics. Even further, still, please show me where I said this was something that all the right wing would do.

Right cause it would be so hard to list five posters. :Roll:


Read cop-out.


go ahead call me "dishonest" now. I expect it.

Yeah, big surprise. I can say the skies blue and you'd disagree. I didn't "bring" anything up here. Someone asked a question and I gave my opinion.

i've agreed with you in the past, and if you are a right winger i probably agree with you on a lot of things so lets drop the maytr act. i am not the one who calls you out on every percieved "bias" :roll:

 

[ReverendHellh0und]

Stay classy.

So sorry, the "gentleman" who got drunk, crashed his car, left a woman to die and never stood trial for. :roll:

Nice misrepresentation.

How so?


Note I don't expect you to answer this as it is par for the course for your little clique to make this asinine claim then to run away claiming I am an extremist..... :roll:

The hope to prosper and be healthy.

And happy puppy dogs and cool lollipops that whistle... yeah that response is FILLED with substance. :roll:

The use of fear tactics. Like pretending that Michelle Obama doesn't love her country.

She stated she was not proud of it... Just going by chica's words.....

 

[ReverendHellh0und]

Right on Rev!

There are only one or two whacko's that give the right a bad name. In fact, to these people, even I look like a liberal. (Although, I do want to make it clear that I am NOT a social conservative.)

However, all to often, we are "lumped" together with these airheads simply because they insist they are conservatives.

We are all individuals here in the US. All of us (with the exception of too few to matter) have opinions and thoughts that sway this way and that on the liberal to conservative chart. Only a partisan sheephead would be so restricted as to not to be able to flex. But these folks do NOT define the conservative movement.

REAL conservatives are really some cool people. We have been getting a bad rap lately. We have many liberal friends. In fact, we'll drink beer with just about anybody. We have many multi cultural friends. We live and let live. We'll watch your house while you're on vacation and take in your mail. We are very charitable people too, regardless of what the whacos would have you to believe.

I say to everyone....

If you accept the fact that taxes are a necessity but you want to keep a tight grip on how your money is spent... you are a conservative.

If guns scare the hell out of you and you'll never want one, but respect the right of your neighbor to keep and own guns for recreational, keep-sake, and defense reasons.... you are conservative.

If you want the sick bastard that molests our children to be deep fried, but only after every possible defense can be offered on his behalf, regardless of time and costs to be sure he/she is, in fact, guilty...you are conservative.


If you think the guy who sells cigarettes, drugs, alcohol to our children needs to go sit with the child molester... you are conservative.

(However, it's ok to be a conservative and grow yourself a little behind the barn should you take a notion.)

If you believe that marriage is between a man and a woman and is a covenant beyond civil recordings, you most likely are a conservative. But if you think that such decisions of moral compass should be put in the hands of the government to regulate, you are NOT a conservative. That would make you a SOCIAL conservative. They are a branch of conservatism. I suppose we'll have to own up to that. (That being said, when we all get to heaven, we'll need to tip-toe past the Social Conservative neighborhood. They think they are the only ones who will be up there. :rofl )

I could go on.............

We all have views that go to and from. We'll, not all of us I suppose. Even gold isn't 100% pure.

Great post! And I say that from a poster a couple mods love to call an "Extremist".... :roll:



Spot on.

 

[talloulou]

Anyone watching now? "Sisterssss are doing it for themselvessssssss"

:rofl

The music is soooooooooo cheesy.

 

[talloulou]

Clearly I must've missed something. Why would they use this song to introduce Ed Rendell?

YouTube - Eurythmics - Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves



:mrgreen:

 

[talloulou]

oh Xavier Becerra is kinda hot.

 

[jallman]

Anyone watching now? "Sisterssss are doing it for themselvessssssss"

:rofl

It's just absolutely ridiculous at this point.

 

[talloulou]

Is it just me or is Keith Olbermann truly the biggest douche bag ever?

 

[talloulou]

Ooooh Oprah and KANYE are there tonight.

Disney, did you hear that? Kanye!

 

[talloulou]

Fox is interviewing Daryhl Hannah on sustainable solutions. :rofl

 

[ReverendHellh0und]

****e, I am on the comp looking up MC parts and the flipper is over on the other couch.... Can't motivate to change off G4 the most annoying channel thier is for that... :lol:

I just flip back between cspan, fox, msnbc. I'd probably just stick with msnbc but I really can't freaking stand that Keith Olbermann guy. I don't know what it is. He bothers the hell out of me.

Just as I said that, they showed a bunch of guys/gals preparing for "ninjafest" holy crap was that impressive..... :lol:

Could it be the smug complacency he has with hearing his own bloviation?

 

[talloulou]

Ugh tell me about it. Meanwhile fox's coverage consists of all their people basically chanting "fight, fight, fight," as they gleefully discuss how wonderful it would be if Hilary came out tonight pitched a hissy fit and then her head exploded. That's when they aren't interviewing Daryl Hannah and talking about Oprah and Kanye. Hee hee. And wtf is wrong with Shephard Smith's face? I can't figure it out but something isn't quite right. Least O'Reilly is coming on soon.

 

[Lerxst]

I'm gonna buy you all a large box of tissues. Just because your convention will consist of a bunch of dullards with boards stuck up their asses doesn't mean you have to act like a bunch of catty women at the club.

Jealous haters club!

:mrgreen:


Obama in 08!!!!!!!!

:yes:


:2usflag:


:ind:


:2bow:

 

[talloulou]

OMG O'Reilly has something weird going on with his face too. His headset makes it look like he has a GIANT pimple growing out of his face. I need to get my eyes checked again.

 

[Lerxst]

I would love to see someone hit Matthews in the back of his head with a water balloon, and then challenge Olberman to fight. It would be funny. Did anyone else catch that guy flip Pat Buchanan off over the Adlai Stevenson remark?

I missed that the same way Matthews missed combing his hair today.

Thanks. I am waiting for the whackos (you know the ones who call me a liberal :rofl ) to come rip it apart.

 

[Lerxst]

He always looks like ****. The other panelist setting next to Buchanan flipped him off on camera when Buchanan called him a fan of Adlai Stevenson. :rofl:rofl
