From Reuters: "Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's big speech on Thursday night will be delivered from an elaborate columned stage resembling a miniature Greek temple. ... Some 80,000 supporters will see Obama appear from between plywood columns painted off-white, reminiscent of Washington's Capitol building or even the White House, to accept the party's nomination for president. As ABC News notes, "The celebrity-like trappings of Obama's Thursday's speech may have given the Republicans new ammo."

Think of this when you watch Obama's speech Thursday in his Roman Temple Life of Brian.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPGb4STRfKw |

What is wrong with the PEPSI Center? Talk about spending out of control! Why the need to repeat Berlin? I just don't get the hypocracy! |
|
The good news for Lord Obama is that even if he loses he can sell video copies of his acceptance speech as "My Big Fat Greek Convention".
I assume they had to use Invesco Field because his ego could not fit inside the Pepsi Center. |

people who will go to Enesco Field to listen and watch as HE has to have the grandest forum he can come up with for HIS grandeoso (in his addled opinion) speech.
They will no doubt drool all over themselves as they watch the the "self-proclaimed" King Obama as he attempts to reign over his subjects, ie retarded, brainwashed fools who consider nothing more than the way he can deliver a speech and the way he looks in a suit.
He is a suave, smooth talking liberal who brings no experience, no honesty, no true love of America, and no expertise on any issue, yet he is held in adulation by throngs of mindless sheep who are just begging to be taken to slaughter.
What a pity it is that so many Americans are so stupid these days. Where did our way of life start to fail? It is sad indeed, to see so many minds go to waste on a man with such a tawdry and dishonest background.
God help us from those idiots who would vote to put such a maniacal, Marxist man with Muslim ties and nothing but his own selfish agenda of black power into our white house. |

A faux Greek temple in a football stadium?? -- The asethetics and trappings for a wannabe POTUS -- Whose great idea was it to move the acceptance speech to Invesco Field?? -- The spectacle of all this has to be the biggest bungle ever -- |

The true believers at the convention will unite to Obama. But there are a lot of dissatisfied PUMAs out there who may very well sit things out. |
|
|
Everything changed last night. Check out the left blogosphere, rapturous praise for Clinton and a halcyon cry to unite in efforts to take the White House. |
|
I'm afraid that you're the one with the hyperbole. The mini Greek temple set, if true, is a little ridiculous.
I hope that you can resolve your anger problem. : ) |

Giselle, "talking to God" is also known as "praying," and Barack Obama claims to do it too! Have a problem with that?
Just as Obama has disavowed Jeremiah Wright, his friend, mentor, and pastor, McCain has disavowed Hagee. McCain never had a close association with Hagee, as Obama did with Jeremiah "God *#@! America!" Wright.
So how about calling John Edwards and Bill Clinton adulterers as well? |
|
Conventions are all about cementing the party brand and its' goal, and Clinton did so brilliantly last night. When she asked whether her supporters did it all just for her, or for the cause, truly brilliant!
The question now is, what will be the effect of the GOP convention? |
|
And Democrats have begun internalizing the criticisms of Hillary and John McCain about Obama’s rock-star prowess, worrying that the Invesco Field extravaganza Thursday, with Bruce Springsteen and Bon Jovi, will just add to the celebrity cachet that Democrats have somehow been shamed into seeing as a negative. So that added to the weird mood at the convention, with some Democrats nitpicking Obama’s appearance, after Michelle’s knock-out speech and the fabulously cute girls, with a reassuring white family in a town he couldn’t remember at first. They wondered why he wasn’t wearing a tie, fearing he looked too young, and second-guessed Michelle’s green dress, wondering if it clashed with the blue stage, and fretted that there wasn’t a speaker Monday night attacking McCain and yelling about gas prices. “We’re seeing a train wreck all over again,” said one top Democrat. “I’m telling you, man, it’s something about our party, the shtetl mentality.”
We now have a complete role reversal from just a couple of months ago. Then, the McCain camp was the gang that couldn’t shoot straight while all great powers of insight and brilliance were attributed to the Obama camp. Now the McCain team has “gotten in the heads” of their rivals–who, when not consumed by their own fight-to-the-death with the Clintons, are freaked out that they have become props in McCain web ads.

Sceintology has nothing on these people. |
|
and flip over the money lender tables too?
Or will he ride in on a chariot in a grand Roman Ceasar like procession, face painted red, and will strangle Hillary symbolically at the end?
My guess Michelle Obama would prefer the later, in fact she would welcome doing the strangling herself. |
