    Watching Debbie Wasserman-Schultz defend taking "Jerusalem" out of the Democratic platform and then rushing to put it back in is hysterical. I actually feel sorry for the chairpeople of the parties; they have to be really comfortable with bullshit.

    That entire thing stems from a 7/27/12 question at a press briefing where Jay Carney refused to answer the question. Seems like the Dems still don't know how to address the issue.

    From a private property perspective, what we did to Native Americans is wrong. The same thing happened in Palestine. I shouldn't have to recognize any nation-state capital.

    LOL.

    Romney and Ryan are Donny and Marie, minus the ability to carry a tune.

    Not really, one transfers wealth into a different government program instead. Also they are both shallow and go with the flow, so a pop-star comparison is better.

    What "Native Americans" did to the previous Native Americans was just as wrong, as was what Native Americans did to other tribes of Native Americans before and after the Europeans arrived.

    And what we did was wrong and illegitimate, just like two gangs are illegitimate.

    We're not supposed to go down to other people's levels.

    he should build a few extra decks in the arena, so all 70,000 can fit into the 21,000 seat arena. What a dick.

    Interesting clip from the Bill Clinton intro. A highlight from Tom Brokaw giving a newscast in 1992 talking about the terrible times for America. In it, he said, "There are 10,000,000 people unemployed". There are 23,000,000 people unemployed today. What does that say for the current Administration?

    I think it was intentional by the Clinton team. They're so smart. He's better off if President Obama loses. If President Obama wins a second term, then Joe Biden is the standard bearer. Hillary would then have the role of challenger. If President Obama loses, then Hillary is set to be the nominee.

    Because the glory days for the Democrats were the Clinton years. The GOP wants to talk about the present and the future, the Democrats want to talk about the past. I don't blame them.

    One could say they don't blame the Republicans for wanting to talk about the future (and forget a certain two term president -- he doesn't exist!)

    You seem to be fixated with George W. Bush grabbing the spotlight. Why?

    As for his record, I'd take the Bush years over these past four any day of the week.
