One of the biggest cheers of the night for a gun.
Yeah i noticed that too, she wasn't like that as Secretary of State that i can recall.

Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

What on earth does the star on the flagpin represent? Did he win the scudetto or something?
He reminds me of Eddie Munster.

Did you hear that, God looks like Wayne Rooney.
She's never really been a politician as much as an appointee. She has no future imo, nor does she probably want one.
Ryan's speech was probably the highlight of the convention. Not enough to reverse Obama's lead in the swing states.
Fox just went to some Twitter correspondent for what they hoped would be a slam dunk, unfortunately for them Ryan's approval rating on Twitter response was lukewarm. The guy was all a stutter in his attempts to explain the situation.
Susana Martinez, what would her chances be in 2016 if she makes a bid for the nomination? How conservative or moderate [relatively speaking] is she?

That guy just oozes prick.
we still have lying Romney to come tonight. With new batteries on , he will wow the inbreds.
Nate Silver has Obama above 300. Once both conventions are over a clearer picture will emerge.

So true...a really hateful little man.
A few right wingnuts on my FB think she gave a "brilliant speech."
Btw, here's a take on the Ann Romney speech.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...1e1-adc6-87dfa8eff430_story.html?tid=obinsite
I don't get it...it wasn't even that great with the subject matter. I think it's more that the repubs are desperate for a new minority star...particularly in California. I think she's nowhere near being a leader, more of behind the scenes type. Her versus Newsome would be funny...the slick bastard would have her eating out of his hand.
A take on Ryan's speech.

This, though no conservative seems to achknowledge.
--Mr. Ryan’s selection prompted a serious discussion of Medicare reform but also ushered in a depressingly predictable series of “Mediscare” charges and counter-charges. Mr. Ryan stooped to some of that Wednesday night, asserting that “the greatest threat to Medicare is Obamacare,” although the health care law began the hard task of reforming the program. He assailed Mr. Obama for having “funneled” $716 billion out of Medicare, without mention that his own budget assumed cuts of precisely that magnitude.--
A second take...

Ryan lied about everything and contradited himself on several issues.
They really do live in an alternative universe.

They won't be dictated to by fact-checkers! It's their right to make up shit and spew it.

No, Kohn is Fox's token liberal. Check her byline.
Here is the actual column from Kohn. Very good IMO. Thankfully, there are no comments on the page because I can only imagine the amount of shit and blatant lies spewed from self-righteous conservatives in response.

He's too smart to not know he's deceiving people, it's the population that's dumb enough to require no facts from their politicians. He's helping to create an alternate reality, though, I certainly agree.
They'll be called out on it during the debates, hopefully.
Nope...the mods are all shitehawks.
the 'debates' are becoming an absolute farce these days...
Yep. The 'mods' have to leeway to question any of the BS that the candidate spouts. The questions are designed to fill into the left vs right narrative in the media. The answers are just a bunch of talking points.
It's a bore.
Grin. Did you see Morning Joe Scumbag this morning?
I saw that tool Dan Senor on and I switched off (he and that Priebus...I just want to punch those scumbags).
Were they drooling about how well Ryan lied?

I'm never up early enough to watch it!
I'm just completely underwhelmed by the whole convention. The thing is wrapped around a false statement that was never uttered by Obama. So far I've just seen loads of crap speeches that barely mention their nominee and continue push the great lie, made by a bunch of boring or prickish nobodies. Their superstars either bigged up themselves and looked like a nasty fat slug or lied through their teeth and looked like a little boy rather than a commander-in-chief up on that stage. They seem to be relying on their leader, a robot, to make some great, galvanizing speech when we all know he's wooden and detached.
I just don't see Obama losing this thing.

never discount the effect of huge money and the stupidity of almost half the population in this country.
Where is possible to make bets about the election result?
intrade is offering 55.5

One understands why he said that, he obviously knew what the context of the word Arab was and reacted on instinct. A classy thing to do whichever way people look at it.
Funny...but also shockingly true.
Bill Nye challenged Rep. Akin to a science debate.
The site with the clip is down from too much traffic, probably from the clip.

F*cking awesome.
Is that transcript real? Doesn't really sound like something Bill Nye would say, but who knows.
I assumed that was from "The Onion". I can't believe that's real. Get in Bill!
Is he still "the science guy" on that kid's show?
Surely too good to be true.
