5. They have absolutely no shame

DU should run a contest for the person, who guesses closest to nearest 10,000, how many times 9-11 is mentioned at the RNC convention.

7. LOL!

If it was a drinking game we'd have many democrats hospitalized. (if they have health insurance)

9. LOL

Yeah one shot of tequila everytime they mention 9-11. Man that would boost Mexico's economy.

6. Bushville will be nearby

Read this on an earlier thread. A coalition for helping homeless people will erect a tent city called Bushville (like the Hoovervilles of the 30s)near the convention. The GOP might try to lock down Manhattan, but I say good luck. Even if the protestors are on Long Island, I bet they will be heard. It will make the Rethugs wish they had opted for doing the convention on cruise ships in the harbor. Of course, if the truth comes out about the appalling way they handled 911, the whole convention could be like an albatross around Bush's neck....
