Affirmative-action Democrat mediocrity

Democrats were in a conundrum at their convention in Denver because Hillary Clinton is not their presidential nominee.

Barack Obama is their nominee solely because of affirmative action.

Affirmative action, the liberal mantra placing mediocrity over competition and merit, was ripping Democrats apart at their convention.

Their own mundane policy is destroying the Democrat party within.

In essence, affirmative action does not result in the best qualified and a myriad of Democrats know this.

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Congratulations President-elect McCain.

I’ve been reading all morning about how Palin delivered a good speech.  Really?  I thought she delivered the speech well.  I don’t think it was an especially good speech.  Short on substance.  Loose with the facts.  Snarky and sarcastic. 

I’m sure if you’re a conservative you enjoyed the speech.  But we’ll find out in a few days what the rest of the country thought of Sarah Palin.

“no sitting president in attendence, bashing the 8 year results of the Bush economy ..... “

I was thinking about that this morning.  The Republicans are so embarrassed by their record of the past eight years that they can’t have THE REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT appear in prime time.  And they have the nerve to get up on stage and say they deserve the White House for another four years? 

No thanks.

Seems to me Cobra has written more than once, that he works for a non-profit agency helping minoritys set up small businesses.  A non-profit agency can reasonably fall under the “Commuity Organizing” umbrella, which we now know is fair target for mockery by the Republican Party.

So the dream team of McCain / Palin is now mocking the very work Cobra has chosen to do.  I have to wonder how he feels about that?

Cobra?

I still feel like I was watching the Democratic Convention last night. Each speaker talking Democratic ideals. Joe Lieberman, Hillery look-alike, no sitting president in attendence, bashing the 8 year results of the Bush economy .....
I did notice all the empty seats, bored attendies and lack of emotion, so I guess the Republicans WERE in the house. Good speech by Sarah - we’ll see where her parachute comes down.

“I’m sure your old self had to go to bed early last night but man you should have heard the speech from Governor Palin. Your so called bump is now just a pimple. Ha! Ha! “

Old self?  I just turned 36!  I hope that doesn’t qualify me as old yet.  hah.

Yeah, I stayed up to watch Caribou Barbie’s speech last night.  She did a really good job reading her speech in front of a crowd of Republicans.  I’m really impressed that she was able to win them over and get them so excited.

Let me know next week if she moved the national poll numbers or not.

My goodness, she sure does have a lot of experience? Govenor Palin that is.
In fact she has more elected experience then FDR, TRoosevelt, WWilson, Ike, or Lincoln had when they ran for President. Actually, Obama probably does too.

I like the bit about using executive privilege as a reason to block a demand for her emails.  That question has already been answered by the Supreme Court, Nixon lost his tapes, Reagan his emails, executive privilege is actually a very limited power. Ah me, not since Agnew have we had such interesting politics.

Some of the recent pro republican commentary in this string, over the past day or so falls in the “nanny nanny boo boo, we picked a woman” category.  That’s weak.

“A VP Republican candidate with more experience than the actual Democrat Presidential candidate”

Its true.  She is an inspiration!  It seems like just yesterday she was trying to fire the county librarian for refusing to remove certain books from the library. 

That’s what Republicans call “executive experience”. 

Keep drinking the kool-aid, GSU.  We Democrats are watching the Gallup poll where Obama is enjoying a “Palin bump”.  Thanks!

<With the flood of news out, the media are already asking if Gov Palin is going to “decline” the VP nomination. >
You got a candidate for more than 5 months without question him got hysteric with him and the slogan change, but now you can’t wait any second to dig into Gov. Palin life, a VP Republican candidate with more experience than the actual Democrat Presidential candidate. Your candidate guys got to call for help from Joe Bidden a long term Senator in order to balance his inexperience, a Senator with more roots in Washington,  than a sequoia tree, member of the hated Washington lobbyist machinery. Your slogan of change is sinking with all the octogenarians like Kennedy backing him.  Senator McCain and Gov. Palin got the united fully support of all bases, conservatives and moderate Republicans, a something that Democrats couldn’t do in his Hollywood extravaganza Convention “unify” his party.

And I quote from the Republican National Convention: “John McCain sees immigrants are also God’s children and I know his suffering has given him compassion”.
Notice not “legal immigrants” but the simple word “immigrant are also God’s children”.  John McCain - immigrants best friend.

GSU, an absolute classic! I bow to you in a show of victory for your clever grouping of names. Really.

Not as good as a picture of Rummy and Cheney hanging out with their buddy Saddam, but very, very good indeed.
