Here is veteran CBS hand Bob Schieffer remembering his favorite convention memories from the past. He treated the 1968 Democratic convention as a sex holiday, because that’s where he impregnated his wife, as was the style of the time. [YouTube]

Look out ladies! Bob Schieffer is lookin’ for some strange!
Meh. He’s past my expiration date.
Discuss your medical conditions with your doctor, Bob, to ensure LEVITRA is right for you and that you are healthy enough for sexual activity…forty years on.
Meh.
Bimetallism is back in vogue, according to Paultards everywhere…FWIW…
Did Schieffer have a shotgun wedding?
“…Chicago ’68 wasn’t all fighting in the streets…”
I just puked. I didn’t throw up in my mouth a little. I flat out vomited blackness. Because I am drinking Guinness.
Thanks Bob.
No comment.
Of all family traditions, “Having passionate, liberal sex with future spouse at political convention, only to discuss it later with family members” is one that I’d be uncomfortable continuing
I love the smell of tear gas in the morning.
There are 13,000 reporters in Denver right now, approximately 12,980 of whom think of Bob Schieffer as a role model. Be careful, Sara. Just … be careful.
I wonder if he’s arranged to have a hooker sent up to his room to commemorate the occasion.
But being a rebel back then, he kept an onion stuffed in his pants, rather than tied to his belt.
Oh help, there are white people dancing to soulful music sung by little children on CNN’s live feed from the convention floor. I’m waiting for David Gregory to bust a move.
white people with NO CLOTHING ALLOWANCE.
[re=68941]soytrucknutz[/re]: Now that the economic panel discussion has started, you’re gonna long for David G’s slick moves.
Or even for a little more awkward time with Bob Schieffer.
i wish my spanish was better, but, on cnn en espanol, there’s two latino anchors going at it and one is wearing a hillary button. wtf?
A little while later Bob and his wife are having dinner…
Bob’s Wife: I saw your commentary this evening.
Bob: What did you think?
Bob’s wife: How many times do I need to tell you that she’s not your daughter?
Bob: Stop torturing me.
i believe he’s saying that hillary supporters that are latino are going to vote for mc cain. there giving this hillary guy like 10 minutes of time. omg!
[re=68947]Monsieur Grumpe[/re]: That explains why her middle name is “Cronkite.”
una maz cervasa par favor, pronto.
[re=68949]echoman2000[/re]: Daddy Yankee?
my sense here in mexico is that most want obama. but, there are the clitonbots running amok all over the planet it seems. uh oh…our lady of botox has taken the stand. has she had a neck lift? not a wrinkle anywhere. amazing.
[re=68954]Canmon (the Inadequate)[/re]: is that code for white?
Pelosi flew in on the Starship Enterprise?
[re=68956]echoman2000[/re]: So, has Hilbot, B. Boxer, and now Fancy Nancy all gone to the same hair dresser.
And btw, I propose we drink when the Bitterz cheer on too long after Hilz is mentioned.
Sorry Bob, too much information.
I’m watching Tim Kaine talk on CNN, but I can’t get past his hair.
Also, has Candy Crowley lost weight? So now she’s only, like, 4,000 pounds?
Wow, I bet Nancy’s excited to have been busted out of the cryogenic chamber for this special occasion!!
I think poor Nancy is having trouble keeping her teeth in. They may pop at any moment.
If I had to guess, without any prior knowledge, I’d say that Nancy Pelosi had never spoken in public before.
This is like the Oscars without the good looking people.
[re=68974]SayItWithWookies[/re]: OMG, took the words RIGHT out of my mouth. They’re making excused for her now, but jesus, that was painful.
Jimmy Carter –
President
Humanitarian
Most Spotted Man in America
[re=68974]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Right? Exactly how bad a public speaker do you have to be to verbally confuse the candidate of your own party, Barack Obama, with the OTHER candidate, John McCain? That’s like getting Jesus and Satan mixed up. In fact, that’s literally what it is!
[re=68973]DoctorCulturae[/re]: She might make a great Convention Hookup for Bob S.
Oh, btw, if anyone is superstitious, you might be interested in the fact that, as I was driving home and sobbing quietly to the sound of Nancy butchering her opening speech, just as she first said “Barack Obama is right and John McCain is WRONG”, lightning struck a nearby telephone pole and the radio totally went out for that sentence.
Lesson? The Republican God, who does not exist, loves John McCain. The end.
Things like this make me ask why was I born and allowed to own a TV.
[re=68979]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: [re=68981]Whiskeybaby[/re]: Fortunately that singer (whose name I’ve already forgotten, alas) made up for it in two minutes. Oh, Carter’s on live — hey Hillary, Rosalyn’s got the pantsuit thing down. That actually looks nice.
Thank god, a montage of my sexy pretend boyfriend Barack Hussein Obama!! I might delay the suicide for a few minutes while teh sexy continues. Oh wait, it’s finished already.
[re=68983]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: One more reason the Dems shulda left god outta this.
“A truly hard act to follow…”
Uh, that’s why he’s going on last.
go jimmy go. he looks great. they both look great actually. aging gracefully. way to go. keeping it real. how refreshing is that?
Maya is warming my heart with her lovely skin, genuineness, ability to read a teleprompter and general air of being alive. I wonder if she’s considered a job as speaker of the house?
[re=68987]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Billy Crystal would make a great Rosalyn Carter…just throw on his Princess Bride Miracle Max prosthetics!
Have fun storming the DNC!
okay…we’re now in the winter of our discontent in Bob Schieffer’s pants. time for a new thread.
[re=68992]Whiskeybaby[/re]: I’m all for it. Especially if impeachment isn’t off the table.
[re=68993]schvitzatura[/re]: Aww, now was that nice??
Uncannily accurate, though.
[re=68992]Whiskeybaby[/re]: Jessie Jackson Jr. is good.
Oh, shit. Funny name. Can they stop with that shit?
Who is this Faith woman everyone keeps bringing up — and why is she a value?
When is Jesse Jackson Jr. going to invite his father on stage to take off Barack Obama’s nuts?
[re=68979]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: ummmmm… would it be too crass to say ‘megadittos?’
Only thing I can think is that she’s used to the House floor, and not experienced with a teleprompter. Ooooh she could take lessons from JJ Jr!
That one bit about “we are not without the he and the she” coulda been excised, but so far it’s going well. Oh, he’s gonna keep hitting this MLK speech anniversary thing. Oh no he’s not — he’s done.
We rise as one people, one nation…Pumas and Obamatards alike!
Bob Schieffer is younger than John McCain….
Fat, old, white women dancing to a second-rate Kravitz cover. I’m urping a bit.
Oh, crap. Biden’s doing it, too.
The white people are dancing again, this time to a song about butt secks, which makes more sense.
Pumas are “post-rational.” Best line, best new description of the year.
Bella Abzug hat sighting in the crowd pan — that’s TWO drinks.
oh goodness! Jimmie Carter is looking like this year’s winner of the ugly dog pageant.
[re=69008]SayItWithWookies[/re]: That was fast. I like a guy with more stamina.
West Virginia for Obama — yaaaay!
I’m sorry, but am I the only one who just saw Joe Biden give a very little girl a hugely creepy kiss on MSNBC’s feed? Oh, and he’s continuing to fondle her face. And now he’s on the teenager! It’s not an endearing family moment, Joe. Stop.
Joe, thanks for the great view; pate by Sy Sperling!
who’s the woman in green doing the lambada next to biden? i want what she’s on.
[re=69011]anabellum[/re]: John McCain invented the telegraph.
Anyone tired of pundits saying that ‘people feel like they don’t really KNOW Barack Obama’ – like the convention is going to be an honest airing of his proposed policies or a true idea of what he is like? Also, people who say that they don’t know anything about Obama are probably too old or dumb to use the internet.
[re=69018]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: Maybe he’ll do it again later.
Oh and does someone in Denver need to go bail out Jim Ken and Sara?
Lisa Left Eye, Batman! What the…
Joe Biden’s wife Jill is a pretty good-looking blonde….he might wanna keep her away from John McCain.
that eye!!
my god, the infernal glinting of that diabolical eye!
[re=69029]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Either that, or take the bong away from them. Ending their day at 3…..nice work if you can get it.
[re=69016]WonkaBee[/re]: what you see as ugly i see as beauty, grace and wisdom. i will always respect him.
i dont know if my tender ears can handle this…please kill the DJ…
[re=69029]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Oh, good point. Maybe just a Gatorade break?
I think I heard one of the NPR peeps mentioning that Jim is riding around on Kens shoulders and telling the bitters to flash their pendulous tits… nothing on Sara yet.
No more Funky Good Time, I guess.
Am I the only poor shmuck who has to watch pubtv with Jim “hang loose” Lehrer? What are the spinning gerbils talking about? I’m so jealous.
[re=68947]Monsieur Grumpe[/re]: “Stop torturing me, Cindy.”
Kudos.
“Holy mudhead, mackerel! Morescience High…it’s dissapeared!!”
okay, they’ve finally given airtime to a pro obama spokesperson on cnn en espanol. he’s good. he’s not as creepy as the dark skinned clintonbot. and he’s talking about chavez and cuba. cool.
[re=69034]echoman2000[/re]: sorry, i like jimmie muchly. I was really thrown off by the eye..
Just wondering: Does NBC have a F-ING SOUND ENGINEER WORTH A SHIT? What a disaster.
[re=69033]Gopherit v2.0[/re]: They’re bloggers, dammit — they should know how to work stoned.
in solidarity with those in Denver ive decided to drink a half bottle of wine during every commercial….which means im going to last about another 15 minutes…
Tried to watch this shit, but no way. Told a trusted friend to call me in only if a real Kennedy or Obama were speaking.
Mike Fisher, Amtrak Tech, is dancing on the corpse of Nancy Pelosi’s speaking ability.
[re=69046]anabellum[/re]: C’mon — you’re drinking for two now.
this is by far the worst edition of American Idol ive ever seen…
Well, I am definitely enjoying Chris Matthews calling out the “Obama is a registered Mooslum” whackos. More! More!
He actually used the word “agitprop” more than once. My inner poligeek is swooning.
*slaps self across face*
Okay, I’m getting my bearings back now.
[re=69049]SayItWithWookies[/re]: exactly….thus the two fisted approach…
awwwggg Neil Diamond intro!!
Huzzah! Bob Schieffer can still remember dates and fucks, his children and numbers. If next week is his tenth-ever Republicrat cornvention, let’s celebrate by nominating him for Prez. Maybe McExxon will forget to show up, or be indefinitely delayed at Starbucks en route.
As for one hundred years ago and William Jennings Bryan’s Denver nomination, wasn’t Juan Walnuts! the original Scopes monkeyboy? Or was he still locked up in 1925 with his homothexual Viet-Namese Christian bondage master?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Bryan,_Judge_magazine,_1896.jpg
Hiiiiiiigh Caroline.
[re=69053]Cicada[/re]: Screw bearings, seriously. Who needs ‘em? (agitprop!)
OMG, who the fuck is doing the “Teddy is your senator, too?” thing right now? Fer fuck’s sake, people. Repeat a max of three times. MAX = 3 TIMES.
they shoulda used Pere Ubu’s Caroleeeen!!!
Ms. Caroline, class and lucidity. She’s the real deal. Her momma would be proud.
Oh, jesus. Really? That’s her? I missed the intro.
Wait….it’s all becoming clear now……Ted Kennedy should be president, not Barack Obama! Ted Kennedy 2008!
[re=69061]DoctorCulturae[/re]: Bah.
Y’know — they’re making a serious pitch for the bitters tonight. And if Hillary has made this convention not take for granted unions, welfare, Medicaid, minimum wage, protecting labor or all of that other working-class stuff that they’ve seemed vaguely embarrassed about for the last eight years, then it’s worth it.
…for those of you that didnt see these bat-shit crazy “Clinton” supporters, here you go.
Enjoy!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBfzk_syFTc
[re=69060]WonkaBee[/re]: points for first Pere Ubu reference ive seen on this site…
uncle teddy had a special relationship with all hhis little nieces
i’m not sure white people im ralph lauren type sailboats is the united imagery i was hoping for. and while i’m at it, does anyone no his current wife?
Wait- did Teddy die already? This tribute looks eerily like an obituary.
What do you think the odds are that they originally made this thing in case he died before the convention?
[re=69070]echoman2000[/re]: he’s married to All of us….
I’m just tuning in for the first time, and can I just give kudos to the DNC for its online HD streaming? This is the best quality streaming live video I’ve ever seen.
[re=69070]echoman2000[/re]: It’s Vicky in the tribute. Not sure about bio.
[re=69073]anabellum[/re]: cool
Oh, and Caroline is just the epitome of class and beauty. Our next President, whoever he may be, needs to marry her.
[re=69067]anabellum[/re]: I second that.
Schieffer is Dan Rather lite before the accretions of old age.
Hypothetically:
Rather: “The DNC convention is like a ho-down with two callers.”
Bob Schieffer: “Negros. As we’ve always asked in West Texas, what do they want?”
AAAGH, it’s KERRY. That was frightening. God, can’t we please just keep him in a crypt until November 5?
why can’t the president be single?
Ted-dy! Ted-dy! Ted-dy!
[re=69081]echoman2000[/re]: I’m sure Laura will let you have him.
Oh fuck. This is a Lou Gehrig moment.
Holy sh*t, I didn’t know he’d be speaking.
[re=69085]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Okay nevermind — he promises to come back.
Ted is looking and sounding surprisingly well.
o snap!
yeah …. snarkless …. temporary, i hope
Should a movie about Ted Kennedy start with water? Just wonderin’.
Also, it’s good to see Brian Dennehey can still get work.
And, another thing…if it was such a “secret” that Ted might come to the event; or that he was laid up in his room too tired to come to the great hall, why oh why are there so many Kennedy signs out there on the floor? Caroline? Methinks not.
[re=69085]SayItWithWookies[/re]: success…you made me crack up…well done..
Straight to the moon, Alice!
[re=69092]smellyal8r[/re]: The pundits have been talking about him possibly appearing all day. It wasn’t confirmed until right before the convention coverage. I imagine because it would have been a HUGE downer if he was promised but then couldn’t make it.
it got real all of a sudden. teddy is the real thing. i get all weepy when someone with a brain talks about america. wow.
but “still the one” ? ruined the whole moment for me.
the Cuddle party continues…feels like time for more wine…
This pretty much needs to be a campaign slogan: “Remember when went to the motherfucking moon?”
yeah, i got nothin after that. i kinda feel bad for the old guy!
Kerry just said he is speechless. I don’t believe him.
[re=69099]echoman2000[/re]: yes, that was musical travesty …. one in long series ….
I think Teddy has upstaged Michelle. She can say what she likes; Ted will surely be the front page story.
Temporarily snarkless after that.
But, still, this playlist sounds like it was picked by Harry Reid. Even U2 would be better than this.
Is there anything John Kerry can’t fuck up? He is so freakin’ dull.
[re=69092]smellyal8r[/re]: dude, don’t make me laugh. i’m out of beer and low peso’s. are UP WITH PEOPLE singing? wtf? it’s like sports bar karaoke for christ sakes. of course drug testing musicians might have taken a toll.
[re=69104]WonkaBee[/re]: Whoever was hired to mix music needs to be shot and burned in the street.
mark shields implied that ted took even more of a chance risking his immune system with all these disease-ridden Democrats.
[re=69103]The Hispanic Buddy Holly[/re]: one could only Hope…..
[re=69081]echoman2000[/re]: Because he/she would be accused of:
A. Diddling all the K Street whores, unlike must of Congress, or
b. Being Irish Catholic
[re=69108]echoman2000[/re]: Kennedy for you and me, bring back our democracy…
and was teddy the first to talk about the geys?
omg Dodd looks like Bob Eubanks.
[re=69109]Gopherit v2.0[/re]: Hey now, maybe Barack picked the songs, and now the nice gentlemen of the Secret Service will be paying you a friendly visit.
Wife and I are just now recovering from Teddy’s appearance. Amazing to see a person who is a historical bridge between our Hopey and Jack, Bobby, and MLK. Even more amazing to see this moment finish up with a crap cover of an Orleans song.
michelle would have to eat nancy pelosi alive while doing a fire dance at this point to grab a headline tomorrow.
[re=69116]echoman2000[/re]: No, that was Deuteronomy. But Kennedy was one of the first to say they shouldn’t be stoned to death.
[re=69066]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: How did you sit through that?
[re=69118]jagorev[/re]: If obama picked “Sweet Caroline” to introduce Caroine then he doesn’t deserve to win.
The Bitterz continue their desperate efforts to get Hillary’s name in nomination and do what they can to wreck the whole coronation. If anyone would have tried this in 1992 they would have had a size 9 stiletto heel stuck in the back of their heads. Lady MacBeth is in her Denver penthouse rolling her pearl earrings in her hand with one eye cocked to the crystal ball that shows Michelle getting ready to speak…
I take it nothing is getting done in Chicago this week, as the entire city government appears to be here. Or maybe something IS getting done in Chicago this week…
WORST. MUSIC. FOR. CONVENTION. EVER.
Is it wrong to hope they stop mentioning god and faith — so I don’t die of alcohol poisoning?
hold the phone!! I just GOT IT !!!!!
This music is not lame …. it’s Hiltarded!! What a stroke of genius to work unity at this subconscious level. If they had cool music the bitters would feel more out of place.
Bring on the schlock!
Wow — Why is Tom Harkin in drag? Hell, his signer looks better dressed than — oh — sorry.
Matthews’ hair is about to take to flight.
Worst. Emmys. Ever.
Why is Tom Harkin mocking disabled people?
Oooh, I’m here. I had to catch up with my “Law & Order: CI.” That Vincent D’Onofrio is quite a catch!
This Republican is KIND OF BORING.
[re=69131]WonkaBee[/re]: Precisely. Just like Bidens bad hair. If it was too cool it’d be ‘elitist.’ It’s fine with me if it’s the Cheeeze Convention.
Oh goddamnit: http://cbs4denver.com/investigates/assisination.plot.obama.2.802827.html
Holy crap — a Republican congressman! Did anyone know this was coming? And apparently he’s the love child of Bill Moyers and Captain Kangaroo. Still, I’m stunned.
Michelle, ma belle… done by 101 Strings? Mantovani? thhe Longine Symphonette?
Is anyone else watching high def CNN with that “Sound from the Floor” graphic equalizer thingy on the left-hand side? Because, apparently, this convention is being run by D.J. Shadow and Q-bert.
[re=69124]smellyal8r[/re]: Is it possible the real rub is between Michelle & Hilz?
[re=69139]jagorev[/re]: You gotta figure some people will try. But we just have to hope our law enforcement and secret service can get to these nutballs before they do any harm
[re=69122]Gopherit v2.0[/re]: …more examples of people who through the advancement in technology are able stay a step ahead of Dawinism.
This is the best Republican we could get? What about Colin Powell, or Susan Eisenhower? Come on!
[re=69140]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Yes, CNN just ‘splained it all. “Remember, Zell Miller spoke at the GOP convention in 2004 and Joe Lieberman is expected to speak in St. Paul…” I would have hoped for someone other than Leach, but well…there you go…
Wow — this is amazing. The Democrats are actually making the argument that they’re more truly conservative than the Republicans. This would be awesome if it peeled away that side of the Republican base. Jim Leach — that’s gonna be an interesting story tomorrow.
[re=69143]loquaciousmusic[/re]: Yes and it just seems to bounce in the same range. It’s probably a brain wave monitor for A Cooper.
i’m on a mexican radio…
[re=69140]SayItWithWookies[/re]: i expect more of this as the election gets closer…but then im the one who has to report to a mental health facility early tomorrow morning……
Will somebody please back me up that Jim Leach (the repub) guy sounds EXACTLY like Kermit the frog????
[re=69138]DoctorCulturae[/re]: hairplugs are your new bicycle
How about Chuck Hagel? We could have had him rip Bush/McCain a new one over the Iraq war, and Hagel, like him or not, has way more juice than this Leach character.
[re=69139]jagorev[/re]: Oh lordy.
Get ‘em, Rachel! Spank Buchannan like the bad little bitch he is.
do i drink the warm beer watching leach, or save it for michelle? i’ve got some $2 tequila that i was saving for a “final exit”. this might be it.
[re=69139]jagorev[/re]: uuuuhhhh…. I just puked a little. Hopey is such a threat to the wingnuts on so many levels… Wonder when the MSM is going to run with this.
“My sisters like to chat, so text Change to 66262 and get talking to them now.”
McCaskill’s daughters are good ’nuff fer a poke.
It’s Amy Pohlert !!!
and those 3 Aryan Youth were her kids
Why is Claire McCaskill’s son trying to get me to text his mom?
*gags*….how many cliches can McCaskill string together?…
“That’s Barack Obamas story and its vaguely muslim…”
Missour-eee? Is that how the elitist part of the state pronounces it?
[re=68947]Monsieur Grumpe[/re]: 10!
David Brooks’s tie has teh gay.
[re=69160]echoman2000[/re]: You’re gonna want that beer for Michelle…just take a swig each time she says “Barak and the girls” and it’ll be gone in the first 10 mins. Then, hit the hard stuff when her husband teleports in through a satellite feed (like the Brady Bunch opening credits)
This speech was hacked together by her son in about 20 minutes, right? Please tell me she didn’t actually come up with this shit.
I really like McCaskill, I thought she was an awesome advocate for Obama during the primaries, she’s great when she’s spontaneous. But this is shit.
[re=69139]jagorev[/re]: Wow. That Tharin Gatrell is quite the looker. Why is it that motarded wingnuts all look as stupid as they are?
Gah.
[re=69169]jagorev[/re]: Dude! Only bitters call it Missour-uh!
White women love Barry.
[re=69172]LeopoldBittersStotch[/re]: it’s not the tie.
“In America we come from different places. But we come together for… [something about dreams]. That’s why it’s not my dream or your dream but our dream.”
I wrote better than that in fifth grade.
[re=69149]smellyal8r[/re]: Here’s the first part of Butt-belch ZellMiller in 04. Everything he said clearly marks him an utter fool, like watching a very old silent movie.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_t_9d8L70U
[re=69159]Gopherit v2.0[/re]: I saw that! She just crushed him!
[re=69158]SayItWithWookies[/re]: [re=69161]DoctorCulturae[/re]: …by the end of this Barry will set a record for the most foiled assassination attempts by a public official(outside of Russia or Zimbabwe).
Who is this Terrible Crazy Reverend that Olbermann is interviewing on MSNBC right now?
OH!! SHE SAMPLED THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE!!! HIT THAT!!
is her brother gay?
Can you at least pretend you’re not reading off the teleprompter? Like occasionally glance off into the audience once and awhile?
The Michelle video is running…I’ll bet his name was “Barry Obama” and he was out back smoking a cigarette when he first started at Dewey, Cheatam and Howe or where ever she was working.
no jerri curls…yet.
“And it was ’round that time I said to myself… ‘Michelle, you’re gona let him get some’”
Psst… DNC? The “One Nation” signs are a little bit, uh, how do you say this, Nazi-like. It might not help you in Florida, is what I’m saying.
Is anyone watching the CNN coverage? Instead of a word of McAskill’s speech, we get 30 minutes of pundits freaking out that the convention hasn’t been 100% consisted mash-up of Republican destruction and unicorns toting rainbows to this point.
Jesus fucking christ, shut your goddamned yappers and quit panning the convention!
and they have white non muslim friends. who knew?
SOUTH SIDE GIRL, NORTH SIDE SASS!
[re=69182]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: seriously, I don’t think I can watch on Thursday. accepting in a stadium? I’m flipping out already.
I think its important to remember that Michelle Obama is smarter than her husband. She’s also more charming. I can already picture her and VP Biden discussing policy while Barry does shirtless pushups in the corner.
her “movie” is better than teddi’s. very oprah. but there’s that subliminal hillitard music floating oh so gently underneath. creeeeepy. can’t we just stop the muscic?
“I am a fucking legend.” -Michelle Obama
Craig is so very gay.
Aaargh — insulin!
the pic of michelle and her bro on their folks’ laps took my snark away for the 2nd time tonight
Okay, Michelle is cute beyond words. I will personally lead the attempt to impeach Barry if he ever cheats on her.
are real people live-bloggin this bitch?
again…is he gay…michelle’s brother? just wondering.
[re=69200]MrAgro[/re]: agreed.
What is that dude in the crowd yelling every minute or so?
[re=69200]MrAgro[/re]: He is married with two kids.
CNN’s streaming the plot announcement.
That was probably the last time Bob got any. If you don’t count the handjob he got from Barbara Walters.
Jesus, it’s like a man can’t even wear a shiny orange tie anymore without someone calling him gay.
Craig’s first love is teaching and coaching. OK, gay he is. But he shouted “go, beavers!” proving he is pro-pussy. I am confused no longer.
Go Beavers! indeed.
okay…it’s showtime!
[re=69210]jagorev[/re]: Married with two kids and gay.
Dear Michelle Nobama please do not screw this up TYIA.
Craig just said “go beavers” on television. Everybody do a shot.
more bad intro music…ugh.
white stevie wonder arrangement. priceless.
[re=69215]jagorev[/re]: nah. only straight men wear shiny orange ties, generally speaking.
please stop the heaven references. please.
Bob Schieffer gets laid at his first convention. His daughter gets laid at her first convention. How much you wanna bet his grandson takes an immediate interest in politics when he hits puberty?
I’m currently trying to get some liberal tail myself. Being a fan of cougars, I was excited to hear that PUMAS would abound at this convention, thinking that this was the new term for hot, middle-aged, horny women. Imagine my surprise when I found that unlike the animal world, pumas are more closely related to leathery, chain-smoking kimodo dragons than sleek, tawny wildcats. They should call themselves LIZARDs: Like-minded Irate Zealots Against Real Democracy, to avoid confusion.
[re=69215]jagorev[/re]: Hey, Bill clinton pulled it off…..I wish I could find that picture.
hmmmm….warm beer.
rock it michelle.
Thank Gawd they didn’t go with “Michelle, Ma Belle”.
“I Was Made To Love Her” -Yay!
pull out the motherfuckin flamethrowers and get this revolution finally started.
Well, thank God we never had to hear any of this from Terezza Heinz Kerry, the Exotic Catholic. She probably would have been lowered from the rafters on a giant cloud of money.
As to her OPRAH movie, maybe the Great One herself should have brought her out: Michelle Obammmmmaaaaa.
Blurg. I know this is going to be painful to watch. Is that a turquoise sun on her turquoise top? Though, I gotta say it: I love her hair.
Goddamn…..Biden looks like he as Tan in a Can.
She is truly beautiful, the first beautiful political wife I can remember.
[re=69223]DoctorCulturae[/re]: What’s your beef with Stevie Wonder? “I Was Made To Love Her” is fricking great!
Damn. She’s going to make me cry.
Michelle is softer. Narrative’s working for me.
I thought this convention was supposed to be about politics
she said “shtruggled” just they say it in Brooklyn! But she Chi-town.
more warm beer….fuzzy time.
Thank you M: walk the walk & talk the talk, unlike a certain other former contender who shall remain nameless.

In Viet Nam, Kerry was awarded 3 Purple Hearts, a Bronze Star and a Silver Star, but was asshole enough to believe that these merited battle awards would be beyond public doubt. Once Swift-boated, he should have hit back hard. He didn’t. (E.g., “On what barstool did GWB serve?”) Obama must learn from this and smack take-no-prisoners back. But alas, I fear that Hopey, too cerebral, can’t. (E.g., “Why does the RNC fear uppity, educated Negros? Big Tent far too small?”)
Four more years.

“You treat people with respect even if you don’t know them?!”
Honey, that’s un-American. You waterboard them until they confess to something. Sheesh.
[re=69224]echoman2000[/re]: When Michelle Obama came to Las Cruces, NM and I went to hear her speak they used the originals. It was like a party with great, old r’n'b music! Everybody was dancing while waiting for her to come out. These arraingements tonight are the anti-cool.
Sly and family stone reference!
A little piece of Michelle’s soul dies every time she says “folks”
“shtrength”.
she is smarter, and fresher and she’s can’t fight the funk. l love her!
[re=69242]jagorev[/re]: The bitters are going to find you and fuck you up.
Bitterz shout out! Cracks! Cleaning up the streets!

She’s making me believe. Why the hell can’t she be the Veep?
Dammit…..now she’s on to Hillary.

Oh crap she said it…
“People like Hillary Clinton”
Did I just feel a disturbance in the force? As though millions of hard working American women just creamed?
clintons had fleetwood mac. why can’t obama have gnarls barkley or something?
Let McCain’s plastic-assed cunt-trollop beat this.
Cynics shouldn’t cry. I’ll blame it on the alcohol.
Hey doodz, Newell’s live blog of MicheLLe is over here!
[re=69254]S.Luggo[/re]: I, for one, do not welcome 4 more years, but I think Barry is too fucking soft and best cook up some whoop ass before November.
She’s a helluva lot better speaker than the incumbent First Lady, who, while well read, sounds like a Stepford wife at an Amway party.
Maybe they’ll play Hopey on with “I Will Survive” tonite…how ’bout that echoman?
dayum….Michelle is good…
She has the cadence of a beat poet. Wonder if she did some open mikes back in her college days?
Great speech, semi awkward trainwreck live patch in. Michelle Obama is cool!
Great family or the greatest family?
SCROLL DOWN AND POST ON THE NICE INTERN JULI’S (IF THAT IS HER REAL NAME) POST, YAH BITCHES.
[re=69293]Gopherit v2.0[/re]: sources say she’s actually a plastic-cunted ass-trollop.
