Democratic Convention Live Thread

[TheMoneyShot]

Obama is the best smooth talker ever.

Guy does absolutely nothing to back it.

Hey... women dig it. They love the smooth talking man.

Tell you all the promises... and they stick with you.

Easy con.

Erick Erickson @EWErickson 9m9 minutes ago
The GOP offered a vision of doom, despair, and division. Tonight the President I think divides us offered optimism. I hate this year.

Who the hell is Erick Erickson?

Thanks God one more day of this garbage and lies

Who the hell is Erick Erickson?

Conservative political blogger, used to be editor of RedState, now at the resurgent.

[15805]

Who the hell is Erick Erickson?

He's one of the most sickening nobodies of the #nevertrump movement. I think he founded
the RedState website, when Trump dissed Megyn Kelly on the 1st debate he disinvited
Trump from his RedState gathering and from then on to this day the fortunes of the RedState
site & Ericsson himself have tended downward. He was a big supporter of 'Lyin Ted'

Obama: "Hillary Clinton is a LIAR"

[The Kraken]

Obama just put this on ice

Teump is done

Question....

With all the so called "passion"... and the deep down love... the "positive emotion" in everyone's speech who took the stage tonight.

Why hasn't anyone showed emotion? A tear?

Because everything said... was a lie.

No one cries when they lie. They only cry in fear.

These people are rich... millionaires... have hustled their entire lives. They have no fear.

That's why they never cry.

Great day for Democrats overall with Obama dropping the Hammer. Jerry Brown speech was also good earlier in the day.

Politicians don't care about the poor and the middle class they just lied to get votes

[Mac4Lyfe]

Sorry Trump backers. Vegas odds are destroying your boy. Hillary going up every day now. She's -240. Probably the best odds you'll be able to get on her.

President Obama might be the best president of all times!!

President Obama might be the best president of all times!!

Most of the International community agrees...

What's so sad is all the dumbfukks in SBR and in Hickville that think he's the worst ONLY because he's black. There can be no other reason but they can't see past their racism. This country was in a recession, our troops were dying overseas, gas was sky fukking high, unemployment out the roof and he's turned it all around but these fukks won't give credit where it's due. Like it or not and I don't like both parties but we have been better off under a Democratic president than Republican. Too many hypocritical republicans that can't embrace change are destroying the party.

SBR folks in this thread can only post hate after hate, making fun of people and think they are where the country is headed. Some of them are so pathetic. Their own kids don't believe the shit they say. The only good thing about guys like DwightS, Lying Abe, JJGold is that these old farts will soon be dead so they can't keep spewing their garbage hate everybody who doesn't think like their warped minds. This country is slowly but surely weeding these malcontents out.

OBAMA!!!!

Đang he knows how to deliver a speech

[JIBBBY]

He said isil

Why doesn't he say Isis like everyone else in America does? What's up with that???

Ya know here is my honest take on Obama - Decent speech tonight for starters and I think it came across as very sincere.... I think Obama is a good guy and has a good heart.. Very soft though..

I voted for Obama and here is how I rate him after 8 years -

He came into office and gave America a big boost, hope and change... I thought it was good thing to have a Black President as well, and I liked his hope slogan. He made decent promises of change and I was excited to see his promises come true.. These were the promises -

A) Remove Troops from the Middle East and Iraq
B) Obamacare - the promise of better and affordable healthcare for all
C) Hope and the promise to get us out of the recession

I was on board... I voted for him..

So, he got us out of the recession and at a cost in building our National debt up to 20 trillion.. Not cool...... He also promised a date to bring home the troops from Iraq and end the war, he did just that but prematurely and didn't handle it properly... Not cool... He created Obamacare but it didn't make heath care more affordable for all.. Not cool..

I also saw California turn into little Mexico during his 2 terms and that left a bitter taste in my mouth as that hit home.. He had no desire to enforce illegal immigration and stop the onslaught. Not cool..

Then came the Syrian refugee thing and that broke the camels back, I feel he influenced the European Countries in some way to take them in and now that completely back fired and people are dying from terrorism. This last year I believe Obama coasted in office and just brushed off all these terror attacks as no big deal.. JV team.. Couldn't even say Islamic terrorism, and then I was like it's time for this guy to go he sucks!!!..

SO I RATE OBAMA as a 6 on the scale of 1-10 honestly speaking as my President. He came on strong but finished really weak. Just to show that I keep an open mind I also rate George W as a 6 also....I'm simply not happy at all with our past 2 Presidents as they both had big major screw ups.. I think many Americans feel the same way... I think both were good people though that just did a bad job in the end..

So I vote for Trump now looking for new direction and change in these hard times.. I no longer call myself Independent either as I don't like what I'm seeing with Hillary and her wrap sheet, the DNC with Bernie, Democrat party is just kinda wrong right now IMO. .

That's it end of story...

I think many of you will agree with this assessment of our last 2 Presidents if you keep and open mind and neutral to both parties..

[MoneyLineDawg]

Both Bush and Obama overall terrible

Bush for starting Iraq War in the first place and Obama for fukking the region up more than we could have ever imagined

Anything else they did well means nothing in the grand scheme of things when they both botched the Middle East situation this badly

America needs a strong leader and so does the world to be honest.....French politicians saying we just need to get used to living with terrorism.....Fukk that

[Mase of Base]

^Nice write up Jibby, I don't agree with much you post in the politics side of this forum to be honest but that was good!

I think you summed up President Obama well, he and his family are just that they appear very likeable but he maybe a bit soft I've had that impression also. Think his wife wears the pants, she's done brilliantly as first lady and been a very positive role model around the world not just America.

You seem to have as your main gripe the issue of Islamic terrorism as your top agenda? What do you think Trump will do about it and do you want him to do something military driven in the middle east beyond what is currently happening? I doubt anything will change with Hillary, Trump I'm not sure it could go up a level but haven't really found out what he really wants to do.

I think the Syrian refugee to the U.S thing is blown out of proportion by your media barely anyone gets through currently, huge issue in Europe though obviously but neither candidate has any say in that.
