2008 Why Am I so Jumpy About This?
posted by on August 27 at 14:42 PM
I know that the media has nothing to do right now but pick apart every presentation the DNC has made or will make, but these two non-stories are a little troubling to me:
Kos says that Bill Clinton will not be in attendance for Obama’s acceptance speech,
and
Reuters says that Obama will give that speech from “an elaborate columned stage resembling a miniature Greek temple.”
I know that I’m totally playing into the fingernail-biting worrywart audience that the media wants here—probably, the set will look like Washington D.C. and not a temple to our anointed savior, and some people are contesting that the Clinton-skipping-the-speech thing is just a rumor—but I think I might be falling for it, anyway.
Yes, you are playing right into what the corporate controlled media wants you to worry about.
Why would Bill go to the acceptance speech anyway? He is working on sabotaging Obama so his wife (i.e. he) can get back into the White House in 2012. If you haven’t learned anything about the Clintons you should have learned they put the Clinton Family first and country second.
The MSM, aided by their comrades in the RNC like Karl Marx Rove, are trying to make it more of a race than it is.
Why?
Because if you start to question why 46,000 Americans should get a free ride during wartime and amass more wealth over the last eight years while the remaining 99.9 percent of us who aren't ultra-rich are going down the tubes, you might wake up and realize voting for Republicants and their Incompetence is the stupidest thing since allowing them to invade Iraq and soon Iran on the basis of LIES.
And then where would they be?
ABC reported that Clinton wasn't going to the Obama speech on Thursday, because he doesn't want to deflect attention away from Obama...that, or he has a hot date with a Denver hausfrau...
If by "Greek Architecture", you mean "Lincoln Memorial" then yes.
FOX is already comparing it to Nuremberg.
FOX of all orgaNAZIations doesn't need to be comparing ANYONE or ANYTHING to the Nazis...

Shit. Even Augustus and Julius waited to be deified till they had done stuff.
And Lincoln? He waited till he saved the union, freed the slaves then got dead.
THEN, he got put in a civic temple.
Remember: Obama's not yet like Lincoln in 1865. He's only like Lincoln in 1860 right now. He's hasn't yet saved the world...right?
Bill better have something much more important to do than watch Obama's acceptance speech. If Hillary can watch it and not overshadow it, why can't Bill?
@1 thank you for keeping us on guard against ambition and family dynasties.
Thankfully, the Obama family would never engage in family dynasty building by having Michelle's hospital get a huge federal grant or anything.
And the Bidens? Fortunately Joe biden would never have one son use his name to get elected AG of Delaware, starting a political dynasty -- gee I wonder who will be chosen to replace Dad as senator if the ticket wins? hmmm?-- while the other one makes $400K lobbying for MBNA even while Dad votes for the anticonsumer bankruptcy bill.
And Obama would never ever, consider someone like Birch Evans Bayh III for Veep cuz it's just so country clubbish, you know?
No, thank God the Obama Biden ticket is keeping us safe from that awful dynastic ambition which exists only in the Clinton family -- and in no other political family on the face of the earth.
Why MSNBC had Little Luke Russert report the exact same thing just now.
Aww, PC needs an Obama Hug!
No, PC needs a fucking kick in the groin.
