I watched and with all the praise not a single mention of the Clinton foundation.

Why not?

hey haven’t realized they’ve won and keep screaming about a revolution.

Muslims in Europe scream about jihad even though they get welfare from the infidels.

Same concept. Greed and dependence, doesn’t lead to virtue or gratitude. Give a person money once, they might be grateful. Give a person money for 20 years, and they’ll feel entitled to it, whenever you stop.

Liberals have reason to be patriotic today. The country is largely controlled by them and their allies. Everything from the bloated federal government, to pop culture, education (k-higher ed), the media, etc. is led by leftists. The country has caved to the left on all social issues: gay marriage, lgbtq rights, abortion, and legalization of drugs. What’s not to celebrate? The Bernie supporters are truly frightening. They haven’t realized they’ve won and keep screaming about a revolution. From the dnc pics, the Bernie army doesn’t appear any healthier than the supreme leader worshippers in N. Korea.

Hillary Clinton, democratic candidate for US president: “Now, here’s the thing, we’re not only going to make all these investments, we’re going to pay for every single one of them. And here’s how: Wall Street, corporations, and the super-rich are going to start paying their fair share of taxes. Not because we resent success. Because when more than 90% of the gains have gone to the top 1%, that’s where the money is.” Sound familiar? Someone once asked Slick Willie Sutton, the bank robber, why he robbed banks. … Sutton looked a little surprised, as if he had been asked “Why does a smoker light a cigarette?” “I rob banks because that’s where the money is,” he said, obviously meaning “in the most compact form.” (The Saturday Evening Post in January 1951.)

I’m in the exact same boat. I watched 5 minutes of the Dems as I wandered through the TV room, but left because I couldn’t stand it. I watched none of the GOP convention, except Cruz’ speech (and Trump’s ambush of him).

As I predicted months ago, Trump stiffing the trades in BK is a problem.

Weak speech!

The DNC has coopted the entire Republican philosophy. It’s really no wonder since the majority of Americans self-identify as conservative, but not Republican. So, by adopting Republican philosophy, the DNC is several days of pandering.

GB –

The ban is probably doing the cops a favor, given how stupidly hostile so many of those people are to the police. If the cops were allowed, I wouldn’t have been surprised if some of them had been attacked.

I saw bits of Obama’s speech on TV today. Let’s just say that if I were anorexic, I wouldn’t have to stick my finger in my throat. I will not look at Hillary.

Rudy Giuliani asserts this to be the most anti-police convention ever and that he was told by four high ranking police officers, two of whom he knows well, that uniformed police are banned from the convention floor. Incredulous, Giuliani walked the floor to confirm it to be true.
