I’ve seen some PUMATARD blogs where they are claiming John McCain wants to extend an Olive Branch to women by tapping a female Governor with a passport that was issued in 2007 as his VP- I just can’t let that go by…so here it is in pictures and little bitty easy to understand words:
Pumatards- you know these guys, right?
That’s Gampy Insane on the left and Devil’s Spew Rove on the right
and they are not doing this:
by handing you her:
They’re only handing you
This
because they can’t put this:
on the campaign trail with John McCain
Good Talk.

Every Step Of The Way

I went back and searched for pictures of the lines- of any one of the many lines- I stood in with my friends from Washington State and California to attend the Obama Nomination Acceptance Speech in at the Mile High Stadium in Denver, Co.
There are pictures of neat lines that went somewhere, but there were none of us standing in the lines that went in circles or pictures of the other lines that we got into that led down dirt trails to the street that we crossed so that we could cross the street again and go back to the stadium and go through a security line.
Those images are committed to memory just like the ones I have now of how we walked around and around we told each how one day we would tell our Grand kids what we did so that we could be there the day President Obama accepted the Nomination.
I’ll remember how hot it was, stories about the people we met- the determination we all had to make it through that line- how people didn’t bicker or fight or snap at each other when things got confusing.
I remember law enforcement officers in riot gear handing out bottles of water and asking how people were feeling. I remember that we all enjoyed joking around with them.
In those wonky lines we told each other that were sorry that we were missing the music and speeches, but we were also telling ourselves that whatever it took, we were going to be in the stadium in time to see our Candidate acccept the Nomination.
So was it worth the dust, the heat, the weird lines that went nowhere? Was it worth the uncertainty, the aching feet the sore legs?
I think that line, that walk, represented what our Country has been through for the past eight years- and I’ll tell you something else, at some level I think that’s what kept us going.
We are on a journey to end all of that.
When me and my friend got into the Stadium we sat about six rows down from the very top row at the stadium I’m from Seattle so that hike up was a challenge and at one point I tried to take a breath and couldn’t get air into my lungs.
But in that packed section we were assigned to I saw a place for us- and that did it, we made it to our row and when we sat down we started to laugh.
We Made It
at last.

Terry You Are SO Funny
c.a.d.
My friend Terry, who once got me to Google DRIVING DIRECTIONS from New York to London, England has again talked me into doing something on-line against my better judgment.
As I write posts from the Democratic Convention in Denver she thinks I should weave the following into my writing…a theme if you will.
Or sure.
Like I’m that kind of writer- me Terry grew up together- my Mom considers her to be a daughter- Terry knows me better then that- she knows I spent my time in English class writing all over my desk and reading Rock and Roll Magazines instead of reading the text book.
Geeze.
I just figure Terry’s got a sicker sense of humor then I do.
It’s a family thing.
Anyway here is what Terry thinks I should keep in mind as I write about the Convention:
” if you can weave this important quote into your narrative about the whole event, everything will be just great. — ‘Every waking second, I can see: what is, what was, what could be, what must not…” ‘
Oh very funny.
If I do that I’m going to get e-mails about drunken blogging
AGAIN.
Well Terry ,
for you and just for you
I’ll give it a shot
( Ha, Ha, Ha )

somebody turns you into a paper doll:
ps…there’s a John McInsane version but like Paris Hilton says he’s a ‘wrinkly white haired guy’ and the idea of any sort of a doll version of that is enough to make me spew
So here’s the Paper Doll of Obama and…if you look at the bottom of this post you’ll see me being fair…

Time for Some Campaignin’
What If We Had A Party And Everyone Was Invited?
The Obama campaign announced on Monday that Barack will leave the convention hall and join more than 75,000 people for a huge, free, open-air event where he will deliver his acceptance speech to the American people on Thursday, August 28th.
full story HERE:
Here are just a few of the articles that have been ran about the campaign’s decision…
Barack Obama will accept the Democratic presidential nomination next month at a Denver football stadium that can hold more than 75,000 people after the political party decided to open the event to a broader audience, officials said on Monday.
“Senator Obama’s candidacy has generated an enormous amount of excitement and interest,” Howard Dean, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, said in a statement. “By bringing the last night of the convention out to the people, we will be able to showcase Barack Obama’s positive, people-centered vision for our country in a big way.”
The Democratic Party holds its nominating convention August 25-28 in Denver, with daytime meetings and councils held at the Colorado Convention Center and televised evening events at the Pepsi Center sports arena, which can hold up to 20,000 people.
The party decided to hold the final evening’s televised events, including Obama’s nomination acceptance speech, at INVESCO Field at Mile High, the 76,125-seat stadium that is hone to the Denver Broncos football team.
The additional space enables the party to open the event a broader audience. Attendance at nominating conventions in generally limited to delegates, elected officials and volunteers, a convention spokeswoman said.
“This change in the convention program will allow thousands of first-time participants a chance to take part,” said convention co-chair Kathleen Sebelius, the governor of Kansas. “I can’t think of a better convention finale for our nominee, who has made reaching out to voters a hallmark of his campaign.”
Barack Obama’s campaign is inviting supporters to make a donation and enter for a chance to be one of 10 people flown to Denver for the Democratic National Convention in late August. The pitch, sent in an email Monday morning, was tied to the campaign’s announcement of plans to hold Obama’s acceptance speech at the 76,000 seat Invesco Field instead of the smaller Pepsi Center.
The campaign email said the speech will be “an amazing event, and Barack would like you to join him.”
Team Obama said special seats for selected supporters have been reserved.
The email said donors who give $5 or more by the end of July will be entered for a chance to win a trip to Denver, spending two days and nights in the mile high city.
The 10 winners will reportedly get to meet Obama backstage and watch the speech in person. Each winner can bring a guest.

Fox ‘News Journalist’ Jokes About Assasination and Obama
FOX News Journalist Liz Trotta said on FAUX new this morning that “some are reading that somebody knock off Osama ( laughs ) er Obama er both if WE could…”
Gee.
I wonder when Secret Service will be calling on Ms Trotta to explain her little joke and maybe they’ll ask her who the ‘we’ she is referring to is.
