It even caused Obama to forget the dignity of his office (yet again) by sending a message on Twitter right away; one that was seized on and turned around by the political right as another message of mockery.<br /><br />There will be no moment like this from the DNC, they have no sense of irony or humour, and putting an actor on stage now will simply be sen as a cheap "me too" stunt.Thucydideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09828932214842106266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649264476699871612.post-33552191088245302212012-09-02T15:04:42.076-07:002012-09-02T15:04:42.076-07:00anon1152, it turns out the fact checkers are the o...anon1152, it turns out the fact checkers are the ones who lied...<br />Try keeping up with current events.<br /><br />StanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649264476699871612.post-70653625729899419912012-09-02T13:02:36.601-07:002012-09-02T13:02:36.601-07:00FactCheck.org has something on Ryan's speech.

A stream of anti-Obama jokes. Was that representative? (This is a real question, I don't know and do wonder).Anon1152https://www.blogger.com/profile/04904955680638696334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649264476699871612.post-26792149103201526742012-09-01T18:42:16.513-07:002012-09-01T18:42:16.513-07:00The GOP has some great speakers all right.
