Take a step back and look....UNPRECEDENTED!
Edited on Wed Sep-03-08 06:51 PM by jackstraw45
The last 24-48 hours have really been incredible politically and historically.


1. You have the President of the United States speaking via satellite to the GOP convention (of his OWN party) instead of being AT the convention. Simply AMAZING.


2. You have the Vice President of the United States OUT OF THE COUNTRY during the GOP Convention (of his OWN party).


3. You have the GOP Candidate for President holding a photo-op greeting the teenage boy who impregnated his VP candidates' 17 year old daughter.

7. "It's f***in' great to meet you, Senator, even though I never heard of you. F***in' kick some ass."
"Are you a redneck, like me? What's a 'senator,' anyway?"

12. I hate to say it, but that's probably what the conversation was like on both sides
Hey, kid, try to get captured. Then, you get a free pass for fucking up your entire life. Fucking awesome!

5. I see a new Obama ad in the making about McCain trying to
distance himself from Bush and Cheney. Then picking a VP from as far away from Wash. DC as you can get (almost).

6. They're afraid to show up - after all they are the ones who finished the party off
in 8 years they destroyed all that the republicans had been trying to achieve...or they just exposed them all. :rofl: Yes - V.I.N.D.I.C.A.T.I.O.N.

16. What's worse is that it sends the message that the GOP approves of teen pregnancies
They basically gave the equivalent of an "Attaboy" to Levi Johnson for impregnating Bristol Palin. That is disgusting. :puke:

15. I am making it a point to not mention the kids names in these scandals.
They are being dragged into it. They don't need to be beat up for Palins bad judgment.
