Democratic National Convention - Day 3

Tonight's the grand finale, and all eyes are on the President. How does Obama top what Bill Clinton and Michelle Obama delivers on the convention floor over the last 48 hrs? More importantly: what kind of crazy shit will Grampa Joe say next?

Edit by Jonathan (4:14 pm PT) - One of rock's biggest acts, the Foo Fighters, warming up for tonight's festivities.

 

8:09 CT The Count: John Kerry with one of the finest speeches of his life. The man reminds me of Missouri football in the 1970's  When's he on he can beat anybody. When he's not he can lose to anybody. Tonight he was on. His best line: "Sarah Palin talks like she could see Russia from her window. Mitt Romney talks like he's only seen Russia from Rocky 4."Great stuff.

Edit by Jonathan (6:32 pm PT) - Finally, i'm done with the evening class. I should be home in time for the Big Speech.

9:10 CT The Count: Joe Biden had some Joe moments but did fine. Solid speech. I won't lie when he starts I hold my breath.

9:42 CT The Count: Come on Barack say watch you should have said 4 years ago. If you want to get on board and fix this thing get on board but if you don't get the fuck out of the way. You've fucked this thing up enough now let me fix it. 

Piss off Bob. Re-elect Barack Obama

Democratic Convention Day 2.

You know the routine.

Finish this phrase...Let Detroit Go...

Edit by Jonathan (4;00 pm PT) -Tonight, we'll hear Sandra Fluke, Elizabeth Warren, and then Bubba himself. This could get tricky, flipping back and forth between the Cowboys vs. Giants.

Edit by Jonathan (4:20 pm PT) - It looks like the plans to close out the convention at Bank of America Stadium has been scrapped, due to heavy rainfall tonight and continuing all day tomorrow.

Edit by Jonathan (7:02 pm PT) - And here's Sandra Fluke.

Edit by Jonathan (7:25 pm PT) - The only thing missing from Fluke's speech was her dropping the mic. Ballsy and verbally brutal.

And here comes Bill!

Edit by Jonathan: ..................damn, Bubba!

Edit The Count 10:35 PM CT:

Republican Party Here Is Your Ass.

In Non-DNC Coverage today...

Football is back!!!! Romo and the Cowboys vs. Eli and the Super Bowl champs New York Giants open up the 2012 season in the NFL. My San Diego Chargers open up the season on the road, playing our division rivals, the Oakland Raiders on Monday Night Football. The Count's Lions begin their 2012 campaign at home vs. the Rams on Sunday.

Democratic Convention Day 1.

 

All thoughts go here from all of you great sane people and yes you to Ralph provided you can do better than you did yesterday.

4:55 CT: From The Count OK. I'll say it. When the Democratic party says "we make ending poverty a national priority" That falls on deaf ears to me. The Democratic party which I am a proud member of doesn't do near enough to claim they make "ending poverty a national priority. 

I can almost read the mind of a RWNJ watching this video. "Lose weight fat asses I think I'll re-listen to Rush"

3:57 PT: From Jonathan - Sandra Fluke will be a speaker tonight, along with First Lady Michelle Obama. The keynote speaker will be Julian Castro, the Mayor from San Antonio, Texas and the first time a Latino delivers the keynote address to the DNC.

5:04 CT: Count: Great speech from Cory Booker is so far the highlight of  early day 1. Lot's of let Detroit go bankrupt.

Hear comes Harry Reid!...Slowly.

Harry Reid the first to mention teabaggers. If they won't stand up to Rush or Grover Norquist what would make you think they would stand up for you? Now he's going after Mitt's Taxes. SOLID!

4:40 PT: From Jonathan - In non-DNC converge news...I meant to post this on Saturday, but I forgot, so here it is now: 4 minutes of pitch-perfect, biting satire from Jon Stewart on Clint Eatwood's improvised speech/standup routine.

8:02 CT: The Count: This is an American Hero





8:56 CT From The Count: Deval Patrick with a powerful speech! The best line... "It's time for Democrats to grow a backbone and stand up for what we believe." Afuckingmen!

9:33 CT. From The Count: Julian Castro was fantastic. Up next is the first lady with the final speech of a strong first night. I am in the minority on this I thought Kal Penn was unfunny and unsuccessful. The only real #fail of the night. 

10:11 CT: From The Count Very strong first night capped off with a great speech from the first lady. I'd give the entire night an A-. Great start,

We Are Going To Have BullCra...Democratic National Convention.
