Fauxahontas is live at the DNC.

Bob you can use all your nasty names for women to describe her.

My congressman was on earlier tonight -- Emmanuel Cleaver. If anyone understood what he was saying please let me know. I've never seen him act like that before.

Both are great.

Concerning the CNN claim about jobs: they ignore reality.

The losses in government jobs are almost entirely due to Republicans. In Congress, the House Republicans required the federal government to fire people as the price of getting anything done at all. In Wisconsin -- well, we know that story; the governor there and others are like Romney; they love to fire people.

This convention is really exciting me. Last night was amazing and so far tonight has it's moments too. Talk about turning lemons into lemonade, Sandra Fluke ROCKED her speech tonight! Elizabeth Warren is up now. Can't wait!

Of course they are because, to them, public sector jobs aren't really jobs they're BIG GUV'MENT! If there were increases in public sector jobs all we would fucking hear would be about Obama expanding big government even more. He cannot win with "these people"

The DNC racial mix of the delegates is way off. It appears they have especially abandoned white males.

The audience at the RNC looked more like America than Charlotte.

As of 2011 the mix in the USA . . .
white are 78.1%
blacks are 13.1%
American Indian and Alaska Native persons 1.2%
Asian persons 5%

Women 50.8%
Men 49.2%

Warren falls far short of mesmerizing. Only someone who loves facts could even listen to her.

I see we have a couple here working hard to speak out against diversity and attempt to denigrate it. I understand. The diverse crowd at the DNC is a true snapshot of all working Americans. I know that is awfully upsetting to you to see that much of the real America all in the same room at once.

Sorry man -- it is not a snapshot of America.

Look at the US Census data I posted.
