Democratic National Convention Day 1
Author: BobR
Date: 08/25/2008 12:23:00
Today it begins. The Democratic Party National Convention opens in Denver. It looks to be 4 days of celebrating a new beginning, a Party party for flushing away the past 8 years of fear, incompetence, selfishness and self-righteousness (okay - maybe we'll still have a little of that last one). It will be 4 days of amazing speakers and music.
Last night was a celebratory concert. It included performers and speakers Dave Matthews (with Tim Reynolds), Sheryl Crow, Sugarland, Laurie David, Van Jones, Bill McDonough, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Bruce Springsteen will be playing the last night after Barack's speech. It's almost like LiveAid. Meanwhile, the Republican convention is more like Rolaid. :P
Seriously - the Republican's convention planners must be having some stomach pains about now. Their website still doesn't list a schedule. It DOES, however, have an FAQ about how many balloons are going to be dropped. Well THAT'S certainly compelling information. Considering the problems at the 2004 DNC with the balloons, it seems a little ... "suspicious" that they have that one there. Note: If you're interested in the schedule, you can actually get it here, if you have the stomach for it. I hope they distribute plenty of No-Doze...
Meanwhile, back at the DNC, the schedule can be found here. Tonight will feature a tribute to Ted Kennedy (he may even show up and speak himself, if allowed by doctors), and the evening's main speech by Michelle Obama. The list of other speakers tonight (and every night) shows a diversity of ideas and support that should be very inspiring. We will have Jesse Jackson, the head of the service worker's union, the head of NARAL, and the heads of the NEA and the AFT. And that's just the first night!
There will be other events happening around the convention that are interesting as well (for those that want to be there for this historic event, but cannot get inside). They include art programs, cinema, roundtable discussions, and a women's panel discussion. It's as diverse and forward-thinking as the RNC is not.
The one major disappointment that seems to be developing as the norm for these things is the "free speech zone" (isn't that what the United States used to be known as?). Forcing protesters into a giant chicken wire cage in a parking lot at the Pepsi Center is not my idea of "free speech". This time they are calling it a "Demonstation Zone", apparently to avoid the previous irony, but let's call it what it is. Supposedly, this is all at the request of the Secret Service, but I believe they could be overridden.
Perhaps they're afraid of people using naughty words (audio not worksafe):
(note the audio at around the 2:20 mark. Thanks to Random in yesterday's blog comments...)
Regardless, like the candidates themselves, I will accept the bad (for now) because it is more than overpowered by all the good. This is the final stretch to The End of an Error, and it finally feels like we really will be getting our country back.
Bonus Click: apropos of nothing and presented without comment, here is a "white paper" on the conventions from FAUX News...
Get your confetti ready!

My favorite part is, that they don't cut away. They don't cut the sound after a few lines of it. Hell, they go to split screen where whoever the hell that woman is looks a little frigtened and you can still hear the chant and see the protestors flippin the bird.
Ahh...Faux news.

Listening to Steph, I kind of have to agree with Inghram, in that's what he SHOULD have said. He didn't though, he didn't want to admit how many they had (or else he truly didn't know), and THAT'S the problem with his answer...

Too bad I am working most of the nights of the convention so I can't watch it The only consolation is that I won't have to watch the Republican Convention next week.

Best Olympic Comments
Here are the top nine comments made by NBC sports commentators (and one athlete) so far during the Summer Olympics that they would like to take back:
1. Weightlifting commentator: "This is Gregoriava from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing."
2. Dressage commentator: "This is really a lovely horse and I speak from personal experience since I once mounted her mother."
3. Paul Hamm, Gymnast: "I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and father."
4. Boxing Analyst: "Sure there have been injuries, and even some deaths in boxing, but none of them really that serious."
5. Softball announcer: "If history repeats itself, I should think we can expect the same thing again."
6. Basketball analyst: "He dribbles a lot and the opposition doesn't like
it. In fact you can see it all over their faces."
7. At the rowing medal ceremony: "Ah, isn't that nice, the wife of the IOC president is hugging the cox of the British crew."
8. Soccer commentator: "Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field."
9. Tennis commentator: "One of the reasons Andy is playing so well is that, before the final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them... Oh my God, what have I just said?"

2. Dressage commentator: "This is really a lovely horse and I speak from personal experience since I once mounted her mother."
3. Paul Hamm, Gymnast: "I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and father."
4. Boxing Analyst: "Sure there have been injuries, and even some deaths in boxing, but none of them really that serious."
5. Softball announcer: "If history repeats itself, I should think we can expect the same thing again."
6. Basketball analyst: "He dribbles a lot and the opposition doesn't like
it. In fact you can see it all over their faces."
7. At the rowing medal ceremony: "Ah, isn't that nice, the wife of the IOC president is hugging the cox of the British crew."
8. Soccer commentator: "Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field."
9. Tennis commentator: "One of the reasons Andy is playing so well is that, before the final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them... Oh my God, what have I just said?"

Not even al-Maliki and the Iraqi government is falling for the Frank Luntz/Bush Administration crap:
Could it be that Bush and McCain are not only out of touch on economics but also on Iraq policy? Shocking.
Last week, U.S. and Iraqi officials said the two sides had agreed tentatively to a schedule which included a broad pullout of combat forces by the end of 2011 with a residual U.S. force remaining behind to continue training and advising the Iraqi security forces.
But al-Maliki's remarks Monday suggested that the Iraqi government is still not satisfied with that arrangement. An aide to the prime minister said Monday that Iraq remained adamant that the last American soldier must leave Iraq by the end of 2011 — regardless of conditions at the time.
"We find this to be too vague," a close al-Maliki aide told The Associated Press on Monday. "We don't want the phrase 'time horizons.' We are not comfortable with that phrase," said the aide, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the ongoing negotiations.
Could it be that Bush and McCain are not only out of touch on economics but also on Iraq policy? Shocking.

I liked it, thought Heath Ledger was great as the Joker. The movie might have dragged on a little long though. My wife kept falling asleep. We decided to try the new "Lux" seating, where for an extra $10 you get extra comfy seats (which is what put her to sleep), and a button you can push to call for food or drinks, and since there's liquor available, you have to be 21 to be up there, so no kids. Since the theater is new, you get a $5 credit towards food, and since there was a screwup with the escalators, we got a free ticket for the next time we go. I have a feeling this will be our theater of choice since it's now the closest at 7 miles.
Somewhere tucked in this huge new mall is Gillette Stadium
I think the next place my wife wants to drag me to is the "CBS Experience" which is a restaurant with video screens at each table where you can watch shows from the CBS archives (sounds like quite a bit of them, too).

Joint Statement by Obama, Clinton Camps on Media Reports
The following is a joint statement from Maggie Williams, Senior Advisor to Senator Clinton and David Axelrod, Senior Strategist to Senator Obama in response to the false story that appeared last night online on politico.com.
“We understand that some in the news media are more interested in reporting the rumor of controversy than the fact of unity. The fact is that our teams are working closely to ensure a successful convention and will continue to do so. Senator and President Clinton fully support the Obama/Biden ticket and look forward to addressing the convention and the nation on the urgency of victory this Fall. Anyone saying anything else doesn’t know what they’re talking about. Period.”

The convention proceeding will be in HD tonight but MSNBC doesn't have an HD channel yet. CNN does and even Fux Noise does (although they just run more on-screen clutter on the right). I believe HDNews which was the only source of HD coverage in '04 will be back although that channel is only on Cablevision since Dish Network dropped the Voom channels.
I wonder if the limited broadcast network or PBS coverage will be in HD.

C-SPAN is the best place to watch the convention since they don't interrupt it. The only reason to tune to MSNBC is for Keith and Rachel. Hopefully, they will be used enough in the evening. I'm avoiding the news channels now.

Whoa....
Cindy Sheehan bugged in denver?Her email"
"As I walked toward my room, I noticed that the door was opened with the security bolt blocking the complete closing of the door. I knew immediately that I had not left the door open, and I double checked to make sure it was the right room because, as a frequent traveler, I have been known to forget my room number, but it was the right room.
I was upset at first thinking that housekeeping had made a mistake and left my room open and I was worried that something might be missing. So I walked into my room and bigger than life, there was a man standing by my desk holding the room phone with a screwdriver in his hand!
I immediately said; "What the hell are you doing? Are you putting a bug on my phone?" He looked like he got caught with his hand in the cookie jar and stammered out: "N--no, we are having problems with the phone." I told him to get out of my room because my phone was fine and I called the front desk and the person at the front desk stammered something out about "problems" with some of the phones.
This room was reserved soon after we got to Denver last night because the room we had was inadequate for 3 people. The room was reserved under my campaign manager's name with a CFC debit card. By the time we left for the march, it could have very well been ascertained that I was the one in this room, and the room we did reserve could be bugged, also. I am confident that that's what was happening when I walked in on the "maintenance" man"
You don't come in the room with a screwdriver if there are problems with the hotel phones. You do it electronically, through the system or you hook up a new phone.
WTF?

Ha....This is great.
Hannity gets a guy on, who was gonna talk (evangelical) at the convention, then declined. So the guy basically says, he didn't feel right about it, he felt like he was endorsing a candidate, and he didn't want to do that.
You can see Hannity's brain fry watching the guy not slam Obama. Colms takes over and you know Hannity is beating an intern.

Teddy made me misty. I want to see him on the podium when Obama is sworn in in January. 
I turned to MSNBC to see Rachel and all I hear is Tweety blathering on and on. Feh. 
Maybe Rachel was herded onto a train by mistake and is on her way to Aspen.
