don't read this.....
okay, you've been warned not to read this so if you actually go ahead and read it anyway it's your own fault. don't flame me for putting up a political post. you've been warned. so without further ado, here's my take on the RNC so far....
this is ridiculous. the RNC is driving me insane. yet i can't look away. it's like the proverbial train wreck but so much worse. these people are terrifying. truly frightening. you get guliani up there, making jokes and speaking beautifully and eloquently like only rudy can. he grabs your heart strings by telling 911 stories yet when you swat away the dust and fog he's saying NOTHING about george w. you THINK he is, because he's speaking at w's convention, but when you really look at what he's saying he's just making a great pro america speech, having nothing to do with GWB, yet bush gets to reap the benefits anyway because it's HIS convention. it's almost like he was LUCKY that 911 happened during his term. and then you get arnold up there, quoting his own movies, being charismatic and getting everyone on his side. yet it's not GWB he's promoting. he's promoting himself. but like rudy, GWB gets to reap the benifits because it's his convention. then the daughters come up. all cute and giggly. and you think to yourself, "aahhhh, look at these cute little girls." but it all has NOTHING to do with bush's policies and his record as president. it's smoke and fucking mirrors. we see these charismatic people speaking at his convention so we're supposed to vote for him. but none of them have anything good to say about him. there just up there being cute and funny. ahhhhhhh..... !! i'm so frustrated. now laura is speaking. i would rather listen to hillary clinton talk about her own ass crack than listen to laura defend GW. grrrr..... this is not to say the kerry is any better. he's an indecisive knucklehead. the whole thing is soo stupid. the GOP wants to stand up there and say USA! USA! USA! like the democrats are anti-american or something. and like kerry's behavior in a war that happened 40 years ago (which may or may not be true) has any kind of bearing on current events, when kerry is obviously a different a person and times in general are extremely different. nobody (R or D) wants to talk about the real issues. i hate it. hate it. hate it. HATE IT!!! yet i can't look away. it's my country. can you love your country yet hate it's leaders? is that possible? i miss bill clinton so much i could puke. the man did everything right. the quintesential american. he came from NOTHING and ended up in the white house. he smoked pot and cheated on his wife. he was the essence of america and i miss him SO much. politics make me sick. i must stop this now because i'm gonna vomit. there. i wrote it, i posted it, i warned you not to read it and if you did it's your own fault. so don't flame me. if you have an intelligent response i'd love to hear it. if not, just ignore this and move on to the next freddy vs jason vs ash vs rocky thread. that topic is a hell of lot more interesting than george vs john anyway. |

I read it, and like you and others, I'm disgusted about how the Repubs us 9/11 as their platform. And what was Ahnold doing up there? That was a total publicity stunt.
Did you also notice that the Repubs speant most of their time bashing the Dems. However, John Kerry invited Shrub (Bush) to an intelligent debate.

Conventions were designed to elect a candidate. Now the candidate has pretty much been determined, although unofficially, by the time the convention rolls around. It's a party pep rally. I'm sure every speakers intent is to sway voters, and in some ways they do. I thought Arnold's speech last night was great. I especially loved the part about how he lived in the grasp of communism, came to this country, saw the party conventions, asked a friend to interpret what was said, and replied he was a Republican. The First Lady's speech was great and her very high popularity ratings attest to that.
I'm voting for G. Bush tonight will be even better!

WHOOOO! movieman's 400th!
I honestly would have guessed you would be at a higher post count by now. Of course, you tend to only make RELEVANT psosts, so that significantly drops the amount you make compared to many of the rest of us :)

I have a few more bombshells for ya. there is no santa claus. he had a "moment of weekness" and ate a couple of elves during a spate of cabin fever. He was executed in Norway. There is no easter bunny either. He was vacationing in greece, and i wont get into the gory details, but lets just say he was served on pita with lots of oregano and olive oil. ST Patrick's day will forever be celebrated without real leprechauns... a little known fact is that the last 2 leprechauns were killed by poachers in '99. their feet were sold to rabbits for luck. Oh yeah, and GW cancelled new years. Now that he is born again, he thinks there is "too much revelry". Holy Shit, I should write for the Onion. :)
