Is there an official DNC thread?

If you didn't see any anger at the Republican convention then you either weren't paying attention, or you were viewing it through conservative colored glasses.

Okay, I am listening where was it. Let's talk about it.

1....the way Ron Paul's delegates were treated....there was anger on both sides of the convention hall
2....Chris Christie....pretty much his whole speech complete with fist pump.
3....Ryan blaming Obama for the downgrade of the US credit rating when it was the congress' inability to get their act together that brought us to the brink, and a whole host of other lies that seemed intent on pretending that Obama came to office in a vacuum and nothing that happened before his presidency had any effect on our nation and it's recession.
4....one word "CLINT"

That's just a quick reply, I'll get more to you when I have time to sit down at the computer.

The only adult speech at the convention was Condoleeza Rice....reasonable, well thought out and delivered. The rest sounded either whiny or angry, Ann did well, but she, like Michelle Obama, was there to humanize both the candidate and the process.

-- I wondered about when the -- what do you want me to tell Romney? I can't tell him to do that. I can't tell him to do that to himself.

OK, well anyway. All right, I'm sorry. I can't do that to myself either.

1....the way Ron Paul's delegates were treated....there was anger on both sides of the convention hall That had nothing to do with the democrats. So stay out of it.
2....Chris Christie....pretty much his whole speech complete with fist pump. That is politics sweetheart. Dems do it too. I have lots of examples and will have more by the end of the convention.
3....Ryan blaming Obama for the downgrade of the US credit rating when it was the congress' inability to get their act together that brought us to the brink, and a whole host of other lies that seemed intent on pretending that Obama came to office in a vacuum and nothing that happened before his presidency had any effect on our nation and it's recession.

4....one word "CLINT" That was not angry and it was tacky. Get over it. And the end of his speech was right on.

You guys are going to have to come up with something other than the republicans are angry white guys to win this.

really? I am not allowed to point out the anger within the Republican party? Is it so embarrassing that you have to order me to stay out of it?

2....Chris Christie....pretty much his whole speech complete with fist pump. That is politics sweetheart. Dems do it too. I have lots of examples and will have more by the end of the convention.

I am not your sweetheart, but the condescension is quite typical of you lately. The "you do it too excuse" seems to be a popular one for conservatives trying to justify bad behavior. Since when is it OK to do something bad just because you think someone else did it?

nothing to get over, I am always amused by conservatives behaving badly and Clint did bring a smile to my face.....highlight of the convention I believe. But angry? you bet he was.

There is lots more, but you only asked about where I saw the anger.......you indicated that there wasn't any. I beg to differ.

I like angry. It's certainly better than the "can't we all get along" and Kumbaya crap from the left.

Archer, with all due respect, I told you this is not about angry. Both sides do this. I just don't think you and I should talk about politics on this board. You are not willing to change any views you have and I don't see discussion of issues just attacks. This non respect is nothing new it gets worse all the time but I will tell you that is all I hear is anger from you and other democrats here. I am not angry, racist or otherwise. I have a different philosophy. And I choose not to be berated and accused. I just want a good discussion. I thought your comment on the first lady and my assessment of her speech had a good point. And I acknowledged it and changed my view. But as far as I am concerned, you and LJ preach about anger and hate and 80% of what you do is attack rather than talk some real issues. I am serious about this, if that is all you have then you don't have anything. So, look in the mirror. I am done with this round and round. Unless you can start to actually see something besides hate and anger and give me some discussion. Obama's facebook page has lots of political, snotty remarks and I don't say he hates white people. That is just politics. I would consider using the ignore button but I can't as an admin of Communities Bound. Maybe my best option is to skip over your posts though. If you see that you will know why. Now, I respect your right to say whatever you like. I just choose to discuss with someone that wants to talk something beyond perceived hate and anger.

Perhaps a two way mirror is in order CG....you accuse democrats of being angry, yet you cannot see the anger in your own party. When I list a few points of what I saw as anger at the RNC, you get all snarky with me. I sure don't know what to say to you.....you accuse me of doing exactly what you have been doing then make it my fault. Please show me where I have EVER called you racist. I haven't, because I don't think you are.

It would probably be best to ignore me CG, because as long as you continue to attack everything liberal with the attitude that there are different rules of conduct for Republicans and Democrats, then I will continue to point out the hypocrisy of that way of thinking.

Mitt Romney, he lives by a different code. To him, American workers are just numbers on a spreadsheet.

To him, all profits are created equal, whether made on our shores or off. That's why companies Romney invested in were dubbed "outsourcing pioneers." Our nation was built by pioneers—pioneers who accepted untold risks in pursuit of freedom, not by pioneers seeking offshore profits at the expense of American workers here at home.

Mitt Romney proudly wrote an op-ed entitled, "Let Detroit Go Bankrupt." If he had had his way, devastation would have cascaded from Michigan to Ohio and across the nation. Mitt Romney never saw the point of building something when he could profit from tearing it down. If Mitt was Santa Claus, he'd fire the reindeer and outsource the elves.

Mitt Romney has so little economic patriotism that even his money needs a passport. It summers on the beaches of the Cayman Islands and winters on the slopes of the Swiss Alps. In Matthew, chapter 6, verse 21, the scriptures teach us that "where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." My friends, any man who aspires to be our president should keep both his treasure and his heart in the United States of America. And it's well past time for Mitt Romney to come clean with the American people.

On what he's saying about the president's policy for welfare to work, he's lying. Simple as that. On his tax returns, he's hiding. You have to wonder, just what is so embarrassing that he's gone to such great lengths to bury the truth? Whatever he's doing to avoid taxes, can it possibly be worse than the Romney-Ryan tax plan that would have sliced Mitt's total tax rate to less than one percent?

Strickland says it all... "Even his money needs a passport..." :thumbsup:
