1. Geez by the time ours is done
if the rest of it is even half as good as the first day, they are going to have a HARD ass time looking any kind of good compared to this.

Seriously. Theirs is going to be so different, so dark compared to this.

We are the party of energy and light and optimism. Theirs (under the bush junta) is the party of fear and darkness.

3. But They Have Had Full Control For The Last 4 Years
Are they going to criticize themselves?

19. I saw some repug yesterday
saying, "we're going to talk about all the successes of the last 3-1/2 years".

So I guess the convention will be about 90 sec long.

Seriously, their convention will sound something like this:

6. They are going to make Bush look like a king and kerry look like the devil
And they are going to have the media helping them.

Lets not get comfortable folks, they are going to hit us very very hard.

7. They will have their usual "minstrel show"
and trot out all the "moderates".. a 30 minute "tribute" to St. Ronnie of Reagan...

they will throw "bones" to the fetus-worshipers, the religious zealots,and the gunslingers..

Toby Keith will sing the boot song...they will have military bands..and "precious video vignettes" of soldiers and their loved ones..

and of course there will be the pilgrimage to the WTC..and all the videos of * being a "leader"..

They will not show the footage of him sitting there like a stunned stump ...

21. I actually liked this post

The "stunned stump" comment got me to chuckle. Nice work.

8. Drink a lot of Scotch, hire a few hookers, have some thick juicy steaks
and talk about how the only way America will ever feel truly protected is if Bush is the protector.

To paraphrase the late, great Frank Zappa, the entire Bush presidency is an imaginary guitar solo that exists only in the imagination of the imaginer.

9. I think it'll be the worst ever...
A multi-day screaming hatefest capped by Chimpy's most vile, smirking address ever. He desperately needs to solidify his base and will say anything--ANYTHING--to do it.

With any luck at all, it'll blow up in their faces, but let's not count on it.

:mad: :puke:

10. Let's see, they'll be riding * in on a white stallion...
of that'll never work; Bush is afraid of horses. Okay, a white gargantuan SUV. They'll be playing the national anthem in between the Falwell & Robertson & Franklin Graham prayer vigils for their lagging poll #'s. Next, they'll sacrifice the Bill of Rights on an altar with a real picture of Jesus on it. Then they'll all go get drunk, snort up, and start looking for the cheap labor hookers.

In my dream scenario, Bush's earpiece will fall out of his ear and
connect us to the microphone picking up the melodious voice of Karl Rove as he whispers what would surely have been mispronounced had the ear piece not fallen out. ;)

13. I'm glad you asked.
I have some inside information about the Republican National Convention.

First they are going to cover Ann Coulter in oil, and then they are going to sacrifice her to Satan, the Dark Lord, in hopes of getting back their lost JuJu.

20. wrap themselves in 9/11
I think that Smirky's sudden talk about "doing something" about the 9/11 com. report is the fact that all his talk about 9/11 is going to look pretty pathetic come the convention if he hasn't acted on their suggestions.

So I think they're going to try some cosmetic moves before the convention so their bragging about security isn't scuffed by inconvenient questions about why Bush hasn't done shit with their report.

22. RNC

They will rip us off. I we are smart we'll set up a war room in NYC and hit them hard.

How can Bush defend the indefensible?
