KOEB Meeting 9/3/08 She Is Someone Who Multitaskes Edition

[Berry Cool]

HUH?!?!?!

This one seemed appropriate for a night when all the MSNBC protesters seem to be out, so there you go. I'm a little late tonight, hope this makes up for it.

:hi: Yes, one of the Michigan "hockey moms" actually said that about Palin. If she is a hockey mom, that means she multitaskes.

[SharonRB]

1. So do I

Does that make me qualified to be POTUS?

I can't believe the whole Michigan delegation is wearing hockey jerseys signed by Gordie Howe.

And KO gives a shoutout to Michigan!

[Patsy Stone]

3. That was pretty funny.

Also, he took the time to mention Obama's familiarity with unfounded internet rumors.

[Patsy Stone]

2. It's Sarah's Coming Out Party!

[Patsy Stone]

4. What is all this, "Don't hit her! She's a GIRRRRL!" crapola?

What a bunch of pussies.

[Berry Cool]

5. Hi Pats & Sha-Sha!

:hi: Ready for another night of pain and agony???

"Multitaskes." Too effin' funny. :rofl:

I expected that "Hockey Mom" to say "I think we're dying...what's the score of the Red Wings game?"

Oh, that's right, it's one of the few days that's NOT part of hockey season.

[SharonRB]

8. I missed all of it last night.

I had to catch up on my sleep and just couldn't stay awake.

I've got a conference call tonight at 9, but should be around for Sarah's speechifying if I don't fall asleep again.

[Patsy Stone]

13. It was great for the comedy

but in a painful way -- and a necessary point of reference for The Daily Show and Colbert -- who were hi-larious -- later in the evening.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

9. That was a classic moment.

She's voting for her because she's a hockey mom.

Another classic moment from Mornin' Joetheinternkiller this morning, was the look on Kay Bailey Hutichison's face as she tried to talk up Sarah. LOFL!

I can't stop calling her Caribou Barbie. :)

ed: thanks, Shar!

[SharonRB]

11. You can or you can't?

I know I can't.

:rofl:

Stephie was great this morning and Randi was on a roll this afternoon.

[SeattleGirl]

16. Missed Randi, but Steph was hilarious!

Caribou Barbie! :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

28. Randi was excellent today, reading that email from that person in Alaska

who fought Palin when she tried to get the Wasilla librarian fired for refusing to ban books!

[SharonRB]

30. Yeah, that e-mail was great.

More people need to hear that kind of stuff.

[SeattleGirl]

32. She'll be coming up on my local station; they play Ed Schultz when

Randi is on live, so if I'm away from my computer, I can't get her here until 6:00 my time.

Gonna have to listen in.

[SharonRB]

33. Definitely well worth it.

[SeattleGirl]

35. She usually IS worth listening to.

[Patsy Stone]

27. Thanks

I edited.

Can.not. Best nickname ever. :)

[SharonRB]

6. Oooh, it's Bob Dole

Careful, Bob. Don't fall.

[SeattleGirl]

7. I don't know a mom who DOESN'T multitask.

What a bunch of bullshit!

And so is the "You can't look at anything about her life, otherwise you're sexist" shit!

Hate that, hate that, hate that crap!

If McSame thinks she is ready to be President, then she damned well better be able to take whatever is dished out.

[Berry Cool]

10. Did you ever notice how these ultra-traditional Repugs who so firmly believe in sex roles

are now saying it's not just a mom's responsibility to raise the kids?

What LIBERALS they've become about family life ever since they found out Bristol was preggers!

[SeattleGirl]

19. I have noticed indeed.

Freakin' hypocrites!

[WolverineDG]

17. I've already blasted one right-winger

They apparently don't like the taste of their own medicine.

Patsy's right: they're a bunch of pussies.

dg

[Berry Cool]

24. Hi Wolvie!

:hi: Did you see that 20-year-old Repugette? "I'm so excited! Being governor of a state gives you experience that you just can't get as a senator!"

[WolverineDG]

12. "Your Blunder War is Showing"

Did you see that sign?? Well, I'm here for all I can stand of the RNC. There's a new Project Runway on at 8.

:hi:


dg

[Patsy Stone]

14. "Who am I, and what am I doing here?"

If she starts the speech like that, I'll laugh my butt off.

[SharonRB]

18. You and me both

:rofl:

[SharonRB]

15. Shut up, Tom

There are a lot more rocks than just Troopergate.

Check these out:

http://commonmistakes.blogspot.com/2008/08/top-ten-sarah-palin-scandals.html

[Patsy Stone]

20. Where's Crazy Preachergate?

She is such low lying, ripe, comedy fruit.

[SharonRB]

22. I thought saw it there

It might be on the updates down near the bottom of the page.

[SharonRB]

26. Yup -- I was right

It's Bricknergate, down near the bottom.

[Patsy Stone]

34. Excellent!

I'd hate to have one go missing. She's really something.

I heard someone on MSNBC yesterday who said that the attendees at the convention are mostly the 29-percenters who showed up only to write the platform and make it as Fundie as possible. Of course they're all going to love her. This is exactly who the trotted her out for.

[WolverineDG]

21. HEY KATE THE 20 YEAR OLD REPUBLICAN

WHY THE FUCK AREN'T YOU IN IRAQ, YOU BITCH???

dg

[Patsy Stone]

25. I want to de-program her

something fierce.

:hi:

[SharonRB]

23. Ohmigod

Little Young Repub sounds like such a Valley Girl.

[SeattleGirl]

29. OMG! You mean, she's like a REAL Valley Girl? Fer real???

:rofl:

[SharonRB]

31. I don't even know what state she was from

but she sounded like one. Fer sure.

[SeattleGirl]

37. That's so KEWal!!!

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

36. Tweety says to Pat about the "tingle up my leg" line

"When you get a new line, will ya let me know, buddy?"

OH NOES!!!! :scared: You mean, the MSNBC crew can fight WITHOUT Keith there????

And David Gregory just mispronounced "Palin"!!! :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

40. I have to admit, this is a FUN convention to watch

for the "horrible accident rubbernecking" factor.

There just isn't enough :popcorn: in the world for this.

[Berry Cool]

44. "Energy independence must be our generation's moonshot"?

Um, Meg darling, can't you find a better way to write a speech than to steal ideas from what Obama said last week?

[SharonRB]

46. I'm sure she didn't actually write it

I'm sure the campaign gave it to her.

[SeattleGirl]

52. I read in GD or GDP that the speech was written a couple of weeks

ago, for a man, and they had to go back and tweak it because McSame picked Palin.

I bet they had to tweak it a LOT.

[SharonRB]

54. I was talking about Meg Whitman's speech

I know Caribou Barbie didn't write hers.

[SeattleGirl]

56. Oops! That's what I get for posting here without watching the convention

on the television machine. :blush:

[Patsy Stone]

45. It's all small and kinda sad

Like a worn out traveling circus. The Snake Oil Salesmen are a little older now, and the Bearded Lady is going gray, but they still keep truckin' down the road.

[bleever]

90. Cue Neil Diamond:

Hot August night and the leaves hangin' down
And the grass on the ground smellin' - sweet
Move up the road to the outside o' town
And the sound o' that good gospel beat
Sits a ragged tent, where there ain't no trees
And that gospel group, tellin' you and me

It's Love, Brother Love
Say Brother Love's Travellin' Salvation Show-ow (halle-halle)
Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies
And everyone goes, 'cause everyone knows, brother Love's show

[bunny planet]

38. Is Keith on with the regular Countdown hour? I'd watch that, its just the Repuke

convention I can't bear to watch even a second of. I'm hiding my head in the sand, I'd rather read about what they say than watch it. There isn't enough blood in my body to boil like that.

Think Sarah Palin's speech will make people forget she's the worst choice since Quayle? Not betting on it myself.

The question remains, aside from the fundaholics, did the Rovian contingent want McCain to fail? It really appears as if they did, so they didn't tell him to ignore bad advice. Maybe they figure Obama will just be too busy cleaning up their mess to be able to prosecute them for their crimes. Don't know, can't figure this one out. Even my Republican Bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran relatives are going to sit this one out, she's that bad a pick. Was the October surprise going to be the Russians attacking Alaska???? Say what?

[Patsy Stone]

39. He's on until midnight or later even

:hi:

I'm sure they wrote her a lovely little speech with the usual "save the fetus" and "...pry it out of my cold, dead hands" applause lines.

The real test will come next week.

[bunny planet]

50. I am truly horrified by McCain's picking this woman. She is truly frightening.

I will leave the country with my family if those two ever manage to steal this election. The hypocrisy and evil have just gotten to be too much for me. I can't even joke about it anymore. So far past outrage there are no words.

[Berry Cool]

102. I have already been making my plans to toss a rowboat and oars over the fence out back

and drag it to the lake and row to freedom. Just trying to figure out where to buy life jackets for the cats.

[SeattleGirl]

104. Hey, maybe the lady who made Cassie's cast and crutch covers could

make some kitty life jackets for you! :)

[SeattleGirl]

48. I hear ya, Bunny

I've watched off and on, but only with closed captioning on. Once they're done for the day, I'll turn the volume up.

In the meantime, I'm listening to David Bender and Ron Reagan on the computer. They were cracking me up yesterday.

[bunny planet]

55. I might tune in for TYT coverage while I'm washing clothes and packing for

my trip this weekend. I just can't watch even a second of their convention. I swore to myself after the purple bandaid disgrace they put on in 2004.

[Patsy Stone]

41. John McCain's energy plan:

[GigiMommy]

42. Hi Everyone!!!

:hi: Watching tennis again which means Keith will find me again (an MSNBC News Update popped in with Keith during tennis). Will probably watch Sarah with Mike Malloy commentary. Can't watch it raw because I'll probably throw something.

[Berry Cool]

51. Hi GGM!!

:hi: Keith knows where you live!!!!

This is just too funny. Even the Savage Weiner thinks McSame is nutso and Palin is a bad pick. And I understand Peggy Noonan got caught on a live mic saying she thought Palin was a disaster.

:rofl: Keith jokes about how both he and Chuck Todd have bought baseball cards on eBay.

[GigiMommy]

57. Hey Berry!

:hi: Heard the Noonan live mic mess. Hate that they know this is BS but they push this Doo Doo on us ANYWAY!!!:grr:

[SharonRB]

43. That's just what I want

More nuclear power plants and more drilling. I don't think so.

I know someone who used to work at my company who works for e-Bay now. He's gay and very liberal and he just loved Meg Whitman. Her politics don't match up with how he felt about her at all.

[SharonRB]

47. This don't raise taxes talk is easy for her

she's in the over-$250,000 crowd.

[WolverineDG]

49. Jeepers, I've had enough of this GOP-crap

I'd rather watch last week's Project Runway....and in fact, I am. :)

dg

[SharonRB]

53. I might have to put the new one on

while I'm on my call. But it's so hard to turn away from the comedy.

[bunny planet]

63. new one starts at 9. Yeah.

Today I was stopped behind a car that had one of those video players on to entertain the kiddies in the back seat. They were playing a 'Voyage to the Bunnyplanet' tape. I thought, how appropriate, and imagined another book in the series 'tonight is the night of the GOP convention, where a right wing wacko woman will be accepting her diseased parties nomination as VP and helping set her gender back to the early 19th century (or 16th) if she gets the chance, couldn't you use a voyage to the Bunnyplanet right about now?'

[SharonRB]

58. I think the answer to all of Carly's questions is "no"

if McSame is elected.

[SharonRB]

59. How about a woman making her own choices, Carly?

Jeez!

[SharonRB]

60. Time to drink

Carly said "maverick."

[Patsy Stone]

61. Is the audience awake?

They're verrrrry slow with the applause.

[Botany]

62. Drinking Game

He is a Maverick

[Berry Cool]

65. Gosh, I guess they don't agree with Carly

that Americans' biggest problem is that their taxes are too high and they don't get to keep enough of their money, and that they don't have the opportunity to retrain themselves for new jobs when they lose the jobs they have.

She keeps saying "I know John McCain." Honey, that may help you get a table somewhere, but it's cutting no ice here.

[Patsy Stone]

64. "I know John McCain"

and John McCain, you are no John McCain.

Oh, Carly... :puke:

[SharonRB]

66. Dontcha just love how she stops every so often

and smiles?

[Patsy Stone]

67. :)

Every last speaker talks so slowly and deliberately, I feel like they think I'm five. Then I remember who they're speaking to, and it all makes sense.

[SharonRB]

68. Sure does

[Berry Cool]

70. "He is the choice we must make"

Well, no, actually, Carly, we get to make our own choices. And to my mind, he's the choice we must NOT make.

[Patsy Stone]

69. Huckabee!

Man, I've missed you. :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

78. Carly, that's not the question you were asked.

Keith: "I have to defend the president of the United States--he was a cheerleader once." :rofl:

Oh boy, here comes the Ken Doll.

I just heard the Peggy Noonan/Mike Murphy clip. Rich!!! Especially to hear that bastard Murphy admit they're screwn! And Noonan..."bullshit about 'narratives.'..."

Yeah, Mitt, tell us all about how much better the West is than the east, Mr. Massachusetts... :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

71. So, really, is it just coincidence that MSNBC is showing all of their major speakers?

Or did they have a conveniently timed change of heart about the error of their ways in talking over Brian Schweitzer, Madeline Albright and John Kerry?

[SharonRB]

75. Yeah, interesting how now they're showing the speakers

[Patsy Stone]

76. Chuck Todd offers up lame excuse.

Not buying it.

[SharonRB]

72. They're even breaking into BRAVO with Keith

I thought I had accidentally changed the channel back.

[Berry Cool]

105. Wherever you go, Keith will find you and drag you back to MSNBC!

He's on all the networks of NBC to plug the coverage. He's everywhere! He's everywhere!

[Patsy Stone]

73. Oh, God help me.

Her speech is going to be longer than expected.

[Patsy Stone]

74. Which STILL doesn't explain why you talked over the Dems, Chuck.

Thanks, but try again. I can certainly believe that the Repubs are playing the media, but you guys didn't let the speeches that were there at the DNC play unfettered. If the head of eBay was at the DNC, she would have had a panel and two delegates talking over her.

[Berry Cool]

154. You're right. They are playing waaaay more Repug speeches.

It's bullshit.

[Patsy Stone]

77. "We have a deep feeling in our hearts for you."

Oh, Mitt...

ed: got the quote wrong.

[Berry Cool]

82. Mitt obviously didn't get the memo

that "liberal" is no longer a dirty word with the American public.

Here we go...the invocation of Ronald Reagan...also doesn't work anymore...all your old formulas are an EPIC FAIL, Mittens!

[Patsy Stone]

85. Boogie Man!

Radical Militant Islam gets the biggest applause of the speech. Followed by USA!! USA!!! USA!!!

[GigiMommy]

79. THAT KEITH!!! HE DID IT AGAIN!!! HE FOUND ME!!!

:loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

80. Liberal! Liberal!

Liberal! Liberal! Liberal! Liberal! Liberal! Liberal! Liberal! Liberal! Liberal! Liberal! Liberal! Liberal! Liberal! Liberal!

[Patsy Stone]

81. Oh, he's whipping them

into a small puddle of foam.

[bleever]

84. Are we sure he isn't Marilyn Quayle in a suit?

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

86. Nope

Not sure at all. :hi:

USA! USA! USA!!!!!!!

[bleever]

98. Tell me

you heard this: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x3912720

[Patsy Stone]

113. I have now

:rofl: Thank you!

And: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=6911191&mesg_id=6911191

[Botany]

83. Fuck you Mitt

Even if we said drill now off shore .... we can't we don't have
the deep sea rigs and the oil would not come in for @ least
10 years.

[Patsy Stone]

87. But... the HAIR! Look at the HAIR!!

:hi:

[Botany]

88. He needs a slug in the mouth for his Al Gore snark

BTW even though they are trying to hide it .... lots of empty seats

[Berry Cool]

89. OMG, I just got the "Don't know much about..." Obama ad!

:rofl: BEST. POLITICAL. AD. EVER.

So funny and true, it's evil.

I love how they just went for it and used the hug picture.

And the singer's voice is almost a dead ringer for James Taylor.

Too much!

[Berry Cool]

91. They are waving and twirling yellow towels.

Should be white flags of surrender.

[Berry Cool]

92. Has Earth, Wind & Fire's "September" become like "Hit the Road Jack,"

the default dance-along tune of all party conventions? It sure looks like it.

Hey, if Rudy were out there he'd surely be singing "La dee dah, surely you remember, la dee dah, the eleventh of September..."

Now there's a toe-tappin' tune!

[Patsy Stone]

94. Earlier they had the nerve

to play Sly's Everyday People. :mad:

[Berry Cool]

110. Mike Huckabee getting easy applause with "I didn't want to WAIT AROUND FOR THE GOVERNMENT

to rescue me!!!"

Wild applause: "YEAAAAAA!!!!!!! THOSE PEOPLE IN NEW ORLEANS SHOULD HAVE BEEN LEFT TO DROWN!!!!!"

And "LIFE BEGINS AT CONCEPTION!!!!!"

And the biggest standing O of them all: "Palin got more votes for mayor than Biden did for president!!!!"

WAHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

(I can't wait for Keith to truth-squad that one. I am sure he will.)

Now here comes the POW story. "Yes, McCain was tortured...that's why he loves torturing others so much."

[Patsy Stone]

93. Did you see them all gettin' down on the convention floor?

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

97. I thought I had accidentally tuned in to reruns of the Lawrence Welk Show!

(Sorry; second night in a row I made that reference, but I just couldn't help it.) :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

100. It still kills.

LOL!

Aw, Huck. As Colbert said, "Huckabee? I don't want to say Huck-a-bye!"

[SeattleGirl]

95. That's IT!!!! I think ALL the 28 percenters like those idiots at the

convention should LEAVE, move to Alaska, and let the state secede from the union.

These people are wired completely different than the rest of us.

And God forgive me, but I really hate them! :nuke: :grr: :nuke: :grr: :nuke:

[Patsy Stone]

96. Seconded!

:puke:

[SharonRB]

99. Thirded!

[Patsy Stone]

109. "I didn't wait for the Government to rescue me!"

Huge applause! :puke:

[GigiMommy]

144. Fourthed!

[GigiMommy]

146. Fourthed!

Oops! Did a weird thing. It posted twice!

[bleever]

101. Why does Obama hate our freedom?

Cuz Huckleberry says so.

[SeattleGirl]

103. Well, that does it, then.

I'm voting for McSame!

:sarcasm:

[bleever]

106. This is utterly pathetic.

Huck doesn't want the government to do anything. Guess he builds his own roads and has his own police and fire departments.

[Patsy Stone]

107. Isn't Ron Paul's thing just down the street?

Maybe he got lost?

[bleever]

114. I really wish he would

get lost.

[Berry Cool]

128. Hi bleev!

:hi: He also inspects his own meat and tests his own Chinese imports for lead!

[SharonRB]

108. These people are turning my stomach.

I can't stand looking at them.

[Patsy Stone]

111. After Sarah speaks and they orgasm

they'll all fall asleep. And then we'll get them.

[Berry Cool]

112. You guys are right!

Why should I leave? Why should I have to let the government be run by someone like Huckabee retelling an old saw about soldiers earning school desks that he got from some email someone sent him?

[Berry Cool]

115. And sure enough, Keith exposes the "more votes for mayor" quip as a LIE!!!!!!

The biggest standing O of the night, and it was a LIE!!!! LIE!!!! LIE!!!!!!!! :bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

118. The Repukes wouldn't know the truth if it hit them in the face.

[SeattleGirl]

116. I'm listening to Randi's show now, and MrSG has Star Wars on the TV.

I have nearly zero tolerance for the asshats on the Right.

Don't think I can listen to Palin tonight.

But I'll probably tune Keith back in after all the speechifying is over.

[Berry Cool]

120. It's very hard to listen to the same talking points over and over again.

I mean, we are talking majorly delusional.

[SeattleGirl]

122. I swear, they are certifiably crazy.

[Patsy Stone]

123. State and Local

State and Local
State and Local

Oh, look. It's that poor boy, Levi. Like a lamb to the slaughter.

[SeattleGirl]

124. You know, I actually DO feel bad for Levi and Bristol.

Two kids, made a mistake (nice sex ed, there, Sarah), now being forced into getting married.

Why?

All for Palin's political ambition.

[Patsy Stone]

126. Yep

I predicted a look on his face somewhere between terror and nausea. Not too far off, I see.

Oh, no! Cindy's getting her alien cooties on the baby! Stop her!

[Botany]

117. and the EDVs asked? How come you never tell me that I am your Fav?

Botany: You will get a "Did I ever tell you that you are my Fav when you earn it."

EDV: But how"

Botany: It is up to you to figure out.

**********

Boy Mike was that story a steaming pile of horseshit.

[Patsy Stone]

119. If only Obama had come in second in the Miss Hawaii pageant

Their experience would be identical. Good spinning, Mittens.

:eyes:

[Berry Cool]

129. Take another drink.

Pat just said Palin is a "reformer."

[bleever]

121. Everyone go rec this thread!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=6911529&mesg_id=6911529

I'm going to open that link in my browser so I'm ready!

[Patsy Stone]

125. Obama is on Countdown Monday

which is a lovely lead in for Rachel's first show. Nice!

[SeattleGirl]

141. Woohoo!

Can't wait!

[Patsy Stone]

127. Bristol's baby will graduate with its uncle.

Just sayin'.

[Patsy Stone]

130. So, have you noticed

that the weaker you are, the more you're compared to Reagan?

[bleever]

131. Who will get married first: Bristol Palin, or Charlie Crist?

Discuss.

[SharonRB]

132. I wouldn't be surprised if Charlie no longer gets married.

[Berry Cool]

134. Rudy Giuliani.

Again.

And here he is.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I just wanted to say one thing tonight: 9/11."

*wild applause*

[Berry Cool]

135. "That's right--'USA'!!!!"

"You are GOOD, OBEDIENT, REPETITIVE little children!! Goooood!"

[SharonRB]

133. Rudy didn't start with a noun, a verb and 9/11

I'm shocked!

[Berry Cool]

137. I've got two resumes in my hand.

Guess which candidate I'm going to hire?

Oh, here we go with the "true American hero" shit. He's a POW, he earned the job. Yeah, yeah.... :boring:

"His plane was shot down. He was tortured. He refused early release. He suffered, died and was buried. And on the third day he rose again...and by his blood are we healed...er, no wait, wrong speech."

[Berry Cool]

139. "He worked as a community organizer."

And they laugh and hoot with derision, and Rudy laughs along with them.

"Maybe that's the FIRST problem...Community organizer??????? I mean, like, you have GOT to be kidding me!!!!!!!" :rofl:

Those assholes. I mean it.

[Patsy Stone]

140. One's a black guy...

Now which one do you choose?

[GigiMommy]

156. ....

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

136. There was a Keith look-a-like in the crowd.

LOL!

USA! USA! USA!!!!!!

[Patsy Stone]

138. Did those fuckers just laugh at community organizer???

Ohnotheydid'int.

[Berry Cool]

142. Oh, yes, they did.

"Community organizer??? What kinda shit is THAT?" :rofl:

He's a "celebrity senator." Oh please!!

"It's not enough to be 'present' when you're president! He's never had to lead people in crisis! I couldn't vote 'present' on 9/11!!!!"

[Patsy Stone]

151. TERRA! TERRA!

The Dems suck! They didn't mention TERRA!

[bleever]

143. Rudy's playing to the hall, not the undecideds.

Stupid, stupid...oh, wait; why am I surprised?

This kind of meanness sank the '92 convention.

[Berry Cool]

145. "Well, no one can look at John McCain..."

That's true; I can't stand looking at him anymore.

[Berry Cool]

147. "I learned as a trial lawyer long ago--if you don't have the facts, you gotta change 'em."

"That's why I changed the facts--'cause I don't have 'em!"

[SeattleGirl]

148. Plus, it's another "Opposite Day" for the GOP.

Or rather, "Opposite Convention." They tore the shit out of Kerry for his military service, and THIS TIME, they're tearing the shit out of Obama because he WASN'T in the military.

Please, please, PLEASE, make them go away!!

[Berry Cool]

150. "DRILL BABY DRILL"?????

THIS is the chant they can get behind????? :rofl:

Rudy is so delighted! He's like: Oh man, I got these people eating out of my frigging HAND!!!!!!

No, Rudy, they're just drunk.

[SeattleGirl]

149. "Drill, baby, drill!" WHAT THE HELL???????

They are completely insane.

[Berry Cool]

152. *static* Houston, we have 9/11...

[SharonRB]

153. Here comes 9/11

Rudy doesn't disappoint.

[Berry Cool]

158. Keith, why didn't you keep interrupting Rudy??

I thought you were going to save us! :cry:

Here we go again. Two-fisted Sarah Palin has more experience than the whole Dem ticket combined!!! :rofl:

"I'm sorry Obama doesn't think her hometown is flashy and cosmopolitan enough. Maybe they 'cling to religion' there."

Ah, he sure knows how to whip 'em into a frenzy. It's like pushing a button with these people. They're about to orgasm.

[Berry Cool]

161. And don't forget John McCain has a maverick spirit!!!!

"How DARE THEY say Sarah Palin doesn't have enough time to spend with her children???? When do they EVER ASK A MAN THAT QUESTION???"

Oh my, they're just a whole ARENAFUL of feminists tonight, aren't they? :rofl:

Oh, but Rudy, I don't think you really wanted to mention corruption in the Republican party...

[SharonRB]

155. WTF?

KO started to break in and they cut him off. I'd much rather listen to him than Rudy.

[SharonRB]

157. I hate him so much.

Just take him away. My stomach is in knots just listening.

[bleever]

159. Why isn't Todd Palin holding his own baby?

I held mine for hours at a time, through concerts, and at work.

Maybe he's not ready to be a grampa yet.

[Patsy Stone]

164. Cindy

needs a photo-op.

[SharonRB]

166. He must be reading us

He's holding little Trig now.

[bleever]

197. LOL.

That was my off-hand comment too.

But I didn't mean "hold him like a spare football at practice".

[SharonRB]

160. How dare he compare today's Republican party

to Lincoln. How dare he?

[Berry Cool]

163. Todd doesn't have a belly to hide.

And they're not even going to run her video. Just try to throw her up there to ride Rudy's wave.

[Berry Cool]

165. There she is, ladies and gentlemen,

the biggest ROCK STAR the Republican Party has ever had!!!!!!!

And half of them still mispronunce her name or call her "Sarah Pawlenty"!!!!!!

[Patsy Stone]

172. A bit nasally, no?

She's stepping on the applause lines.

[SharonRB]

162. Bwaaaahaaaaa

They had to cancel the video because Rudy talked too long!

[Patsy Stone]

167. Lois Lane arrives

Here we go...

[Berry Cool]

168. Todd is just gritting his teeth at his wife getting all these accolades.

This is the sound of desperation. I have heard it.

Bet they trot the whole family out at the end to say hi to her. Except maybe Bristol.

[Berry Cool]

170. Great God, her voice is grating and annoying.

She looks like a book-banner at your local PTA meeting. That's just what she is...a book-banner raised far beyond her station by fate.

She needs to go back to the hockey-mom car pool.

[Berry Cool]

171. "And oh, did I mention, my son is shipping out on Christmas Day?"

"Just in case the terrorists wondered about troop movements or anything..."

[Botany]

169. Sarah "Beauregard" Palin

Drill Baby Drill!

[Berry Cool]

175. "I tell ya, we have our ups and downs like everyone else!"

"Especially, when it comes to the belly of one of our daughters, ups! But forget about that, let's talk about special-needs children..."

[Patsy Stone]

176. And a nervous look on the boyfriend's face.

I wish I had a drop of some maniacal laughter, here.

[Patsy Stone]

173. "To everything turn, turn, turn..."

There is a season...

[SharonRB]

174. Her voice is really annoying me.

[Botany]

179. Kinda of a half bee buzz and the rest out of her nose

Smart bring up hockey .... like the rink you built in Wasilla and left
the town 22 million in debt.

[Berry Cool]

180. Todd races snow machines? Like, machines that make snow??

"And we're still together...which is more than can be said for my running-ma...oops."

Now sings the virtues of small towns. Yawn, yawn.

Now for a laugh. "What's the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? Lipstick." ROAR.

Look out people, she just told you, she's a pit bull in lipstick.

Oh, and now she's gonna school us on what it means to be mayor of Wasilla, she says in her schoolmarm voice. This should be good.

"It's sort of like being a ccommunity ORGANIZER, except you have ACTUAL RESPONSIBILITIES!!!"

How much meaner can they get?

[Patsy Stone]

182. ...

[SharonRB]

177. LOL

Look at Piper wetting down Trig's hair!

[Patsy Stone]

196. With spit.

Isn't that precious?

Boooooo! Boo! big speeches about great things. Boooooo!

[GigiMommy]

178. Why do I feel like I'm at a school function.

[SharonRB]

181. Oh, fuck her!

Oops! Looks like one of ours infiltrated and just got thrown out.

[Berry Cool]

183. "John McCain is the same wherever he goes."

Yeah, and that's what scares us.

"Here's a little news flash!" (She's so proud of that line.)

You know they will say this speech is an out-of-the-park home run. And as far as feeding this audience red meat, absolutely.

But they are not the country. They are not what I am hearing.

Even one of the Republicans in my office thinks she's an awful choice.

[Berry Cool]

184. "I stood up to the big oil companies!"

"Forget that my husband works for one!"

[Patsy Stone]

185. Who was that woman they escorted out?

What do you have to do to be taken out of there? Not boooooooo loudly enough?

[Berry Cool]

186. She LIED about the Bridge to Nowhere again!!!!!!

When she KNOWS that everyone KNOWS she lied!!!!!!!

[Berry Cool]

188. "Listen to me! I'm an ENERGY expert!!!!"

"And what's more, I'm a FOREIGN POLICY ENERGY EXPERT!!!!"

[SharonRB]

187. In another thread they said it was a Code Pinker.

[Berry Cool]

189. Just love the false dilemmas these liars pose and stuff in their opponents' mouths.

Lady. Obama never said we should do "nothing at all." You lie.

[Berry Cool]

190. And she's lying again about Obama's record.

And MSNBC showed her teleprompter. Ha ha.

[Berry Cool]

191. Cheap laugh at the Greek columns.

And more lies.

Boy, I cannot WAIT until this thing is over. Even four days of it is four days too many.

[Berry Cool]

192. We. Must. Never. Let. This. Mob. Rule. Again.

They would tear human beings limb from limb if given the chance.

Never again.

That must be our pledge.

[Patsy Stone]

195. She's perfect for this room

But the speech is so full of lies; it just doesn't hold water.

[SeattleGirl]

193. GAAAAAA! DU is driving me NUTS! Takes forever to refresh, or

to go to another forum. Keep getting messages that the connection has timed out, etc.

So I'm taking this rare opportunity to say I give up for the time being. I'll check again later to see if it's any better.

[Berry Cool]

194. Well, this certainly isn't high-flown speechmaking, no sirree.

This thread is long enough. I'm creating a new one.
