Obama's War Horse, Hopesure O' FourhoovesDEMOCRATS TO SPEND CONVENTION WEDNESDAY PRETENDING THEY AREN’T PUSSIES: The Obama people announced on a conference call today that the Wednesday of their convention — the night the vice president speaks, assuming there ever is one — will be National Security Night, meaning it will focus on “Securing America’s Future.” You know, with guns and sheee-iiiit. And that is why Dick Cheney will be Obama’s second black vice president. [The Page]

    Perhaps “securing” means with chains and leather and ball gags? ‘Cause that could be pretty entertaining for many many nights to come.

  2. Serolf Divad says at 3:17 pm, August 11th, 2008

    If the Dems want to prove they’ve got balls… and I’m not talking rabbit pellets here, but a hairy set of truck nutz, then they could do worse than take William Kristol up on his suggestion that we fight a war with Russia.

    No way it will have anything to do with this guy. Nuh uh, no chance.

    And then Thursday morning Barry will go wind-surfing at Martha’s Vineyard. And hold a press conference asking John McCain to please, pretty please stop with those silly negative ads.

    Oooh fun. Another leak suggests that Thursday is Pizza Day!!!

    Hopey: Stay AWAY from the tank.

  7. If they put Hopey in a helmet, I am totally voting somebody else ’cause no amount of Hope can overcome that much Retard.

    This is better than the original ideas for Wednesday night:

    1. John Edwards Bobble Head night.
    2. Beat up a sissie boy night.
    3. Pizza and Chick Flick night.

  10. AngryBlakGuy says at 3:25 pm, August 11th, 2008

    …maybe they can invade Georgia or has that lost its novelty already?

  11. Here’s a suggestion. How about we Secure America’s Future by not making the rest of the world hate us and want to see us fail?

  12. mookworthjwilson says at 3:29 pm, August 11th, 2008

    StripesAndPlaids: Damn, and I was all set to be one of the sissie boys…

  13. Canuckledragger says at 3:29 pm, August 11th, 2008

    I wish all you people would quit clowing around about all this stuff.

    If you keep it up, Hillaryous may rescind her kind offer to let Barry be her lawn jockey.

    Let that be on your heads when it happens…

    Spence: Screw those countries that hate us. If they hate us, we’ll lay a regíme change on’em!

  16. The Incomparable Tiny Valdez says at 3:37 pm, August 11th, 2008

    They should have a Pamplona style running of the bulls in the Pepsi Center. Not only would it prove they’ve got balls, but you could tie it into the Truck Nutz concession.

  17. Canuckledragger says at 3:40 pm, August 11th, 2008

    But what night will be “All Hail Bubba” night?

    ‘Coz I’ve been putting off rearranging my sock drawer.

  18. Fear of a Black Reagan says at 3:41 pm, August 11th, 2008

    V572625694: Teh gheyz will go apeshit if they pick that ol’ dirtbag. Besides, he is 99% probable to be racist.

  19. AngryBlakGuy says at 3:42 pm, August 11th, 2008

    …ironically in that photo the gun on the donkeys back is aimed at the back of its skull. Pretty much sums up the past 12 years of Democratic politics.

  20. ForTheTurnstiles says at 3:42 pm, August 11th, 2008

    V572625694: That guy’s fine with me, but I’d go for this other white guy. Dude from Rhode Island. Very boring but makes few mistakes, which is the point. Wesley Clark talks too much.

  21. WhatTheHeck says at 3:48 pm, August 11th, 2008

    Sooooo… all the dems in attendance will be wearing flag lapel pins, talking about raping the environment and generally sounding like republicans.

    I hope the remember to bring some male pages with them.

  22. anabellum says at 3:49 pm, August 11th, 2008

    oh goodie, i was wondering when the Fearsome Democratic Army of Tomorrow would raise its mighty head, take aim at the future, and spurt ‘National Security’(TM) on our eager, upturned faces…

  23. AnnieGetYourFun says at 3:59 pm, August 11th, 2008

    Serolf Divad: Oooh! War with Russia! Count me in. As long as we invade and annex Canada in the process.

  24. Canuckledragger says at 4:03 pm, August 11th, 2008

    anabellum: Something about the way you talk makes me want to make you feel secure all over.

  25. God I love that picture!

  26. valobama says at 4:32 pm, August 11th, 2008

    paolaccio: THAT’S MY MAN RIGHT THUR!

  27. valobama says at 4:34 pm, August 11th, 2008

    V572625694: He doesn’t make me feel secure

  28. Gopherit v2.0 says at 4:53 pm, August 11th, 2008

    anabellum: Unlike Cheney or McCain, I’ve never gotten wood hearing someone talk national security before. Thanks for that.

  29. Vewol Mevemont says at 5:39 pm, August 11th, 2008

    Serolf Divad: The money quote from that article: “Meanwhile, Russia has sent troops and tanks across an international border, and now seems to be widening its war against Georgia more than its original — and in any case illegitimate — casus belli would justify.”

    God damn it, I love you, Kristol. Total lack of introspection. Brilliant!

  30. V572625694 says at 7:48 pm, August 11th, 2008

    ForTheTurnstiles: V572625694: Plus Sam’s gotta be a thousand years old or so. So these things combine to make him the perfect compliment to Obama:

    Obama Nunn
    Black Anti-black
    Young Old
    Attactive to men Ew

    I rest my case, if the table works.

  31. V572625694 says at 12:33 am, August 12th, 2008

    V572625694: and the table didn’t work. Well, it would’ve been funny. Maybe.
