What is the saddest thing? Getting all the way to the convention floor and being turned away by some 18-year-old goober who tells you very apologetically that sorry, the fire marshall says nobody else can go in, and so you have to listen to Hillary Clinton’s speech in the hallway with all the other losers. [Denver Post]
1) they will blame Obama
2) they will need an appropriate period of time to grieve over this
What if you got in and then the speech is all about how much Hillary hates you? That would be sadder.
Sums up the Hillary campaign really - too little, too late.
THIS IS JUST ANOTHER PLOY BY THE NOOBAMA CAMPAIGN TO SILENCE THE VOICES OF THE AMERICANS AND THEIR VOICES SHOULD BE HEARD SO HILLARY CAN HAVE A VOICE THAT IS VERY VOCAL AND VOICELIKE.
Oh, and your vote doesn’t count. And the bar is out of gin. And that nice soldier just threw your puppy off a cliff.
The sad party is the poor security dude who has to deal with media asshat asking to personally discuss his entrance with the fire marshall. Did you notice that he tried to push by the poor guy? What a self-important bastard. I hate media people now, and that lady with her “I’m the polite one here” look as she condescends and insults the poor man. They should be watching from the freedom cage.
I love the way Hillary lost on the merits, and still everybody has to treat her with kid gloves and make “deals” with her. And Bill’s still pissed off. Fuck him. You lost assholes! After tonight it is NOT about you anymore!
Oh, I got a little testy, I guess.
Why are Fire Marshalls so misogynist? This is going to take at least two weeks of grieving to deal with.
Well, shit, in that orange pantsuit you could see the bitch from space!
You know what’s cathartic? Stifling Hillary Clinton supporters at every turn.
FYI, Mr. Fire Marshall: The podium is not on fire, it’s just a really loud pantsuit. Put your hose away and keep your goobers from harassing Sara! (Wait, that sounds bad…)
Clearly the next time there’s a fire, they need to call WALNUTS! and not that dirty, sexist fire department.
Doesn’t the fire marshal believe in Freedom?
Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose
Hmmmm…..18-year old goober looks kinda cute. Please send Princess Sparkle Pony to interview this adorable boy in his underwear. More video, better lighting.
As for fire marshall Bo Pelham’s orders, on teevee I could see a big bald spot in convention seating just to the left of the stage, directly above the Pelosi section. Or was that reserved for impeachment advisors?

THIS IS THE GREATEST TRAVESTY AND DISREPECT THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED! IF HUSSEIN OSAMA THINKS HE CAN SILENCE THE WILLS OF THE PEOPLES WITH SO-CALLED “FIRE “CODES”" HE HAS AN OTHER THINGS COMING! I WILL VOTING FOR FIRE IN NOVEMBER AND SO AM GOING TO TELL EVERYONE THAT TOO! HELLO1 FOX NEWS! I HAVE A IMPORTANT STORY FOR YOU!
Do you know how to get the fire marshall’s attention: light a fire. Just a suggestion.
Maybe this is why the PUMA was crying last night on the CNN interview after Hillz’ speech?
The fire dept. was afraid of too many flaming PUMAs?
I thought *this* was the saddest thing.
Whoops, crossing the streams of my favorite websites.
That clip is pretty funny. I can see the whole development of the story.
Reporter 1: Dude! I’m so wasted! I totally missed getting down to the floor in time to chill with the Hillznits. Now they won’t let me in. Facists.
Reporter 2: Bummer. How’re you gonna get any coverage now?
Reporter 1: Dunno. Maybe I’ll just wander around with a camera and film all the bored people, pretending to care. Hold my beer.
There must be a lot of people in there, then.
Fire Marshall Bill: “Let me show you something!”
Well, that’s pretty exciting! Next, you can interview the folding chairs.
This could only happen to the Bitters. Predictable but still hilarious.
And that Tangerine Pantsuit of Unity was actually a coded message of surrender to DailyKos.
GlennBecksTaint: …or, in this case, nothing left to hose.
Maybe I missed it among the deluge of posts and the biblical flood of comments, but did anyone see the NYT/CBS poll (buried as a graphic in the billionth mf-ing catharsis article) of 970 Clinton friggin’ delegates that found a walloping 6% of women Clinton friggin’ delegates that said they ‘do not support’ Hopey as the nominee. I mean, as PJ O’Rourke memorably put it…what the fuck? what the fucking fuck?
Next week I expect to see similar wall-to-wall breathless coverage of similarly sized demographics, like Communist Party of South Dakota (Trotskyite) and Mimes for the Ethical Treatment of Acorns.
This is why I always wear Depends to political events, so I don’t make the mistake of that last trip to the can and get locked out of the reason I drove 3 hours to Denver. You can sit there in your warm, wet diaper and enjoy the view.
The convention would be so much less complicated if SCOTUS would just hurry up and strike down Roe v. Wade and legalize gender discrimination, so that the PUMAs could vote for McCain without guilt.
loudmouthredhead: you win, funniest.
@user of owls Also, I haven’t seen any of those famous “daily tracking polls” for a few days now, which I assume means that Barry has opened up a huge, perhaps unsurmountable, lead, and the MSM is just going to ignore it for a few days in the hope that it will go away.
