the way that they just walked in there with the whole thing planned, shut up any dissenters, had the vote tally before the vote began and then proceeded with a convention where they openly told lies in their speeches.
And let's point it out again.... the whole theme of the convention was based on a very obvious, very intentional and obtuse theme of "We Built That" when... well, no... they didn't.
AND when called on that, they said "we're not going to let fact checkers dictate our campaign."
Which sums up the whole thing. Truth, democracy, process and fairness didn't matter. What DOES matter is that thanks to citizen's united, the 46 people in America who have more money than the bottom 98% of the population have already bought and paid for a president who will screw over anyone and they clearly don't give a shit.
And since they only were able to buy one president... they bulldozed over every other challenger to get their way.
I'm anxiously awaiting your documentation of the lies that are told at the Democratic Convention this week.
Both parties are equally shameful.
The only people we should try to get even with...
...are those who've helped us.
Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

Won't happen. Obama is God...didn't you know that? He eats dirt and shits gold!

Well, let's wait and see what lies they tell before we say they're "equally shameful."
Quite honestly, I don't think I agree with that AND I find the whole "well, it's a wash" argument a bit... off base.
we can say they are equally shameful, and i personally do say it, and quite often. Obama is and was funded by primarily large financial institutions. No surprise then that the only real legislation he's gotten together in terms of dealing with the economy in 4 years was bailing out the same people who funded his campaign. That shouldnt be a surprise. Obama will not be offering a platform where he pulls troops out of afghanistan. He wont be dealing seriously with global warming. He's not going to do anything in terms of the economy. He wont shut down gitmo, and would get rid of warrentless wiretapping. Despite the fact his favorite show is the wire, he is for the drug war, and has done absolutely nothing to address racial inequality in the prison industrial complex and in american society in general. He's done nothing to address socioeconomic injustice. hell when was the last time you saw him talk about raising the minimum wage? To the contrary, he's pro war and how many countries now are we involved in other than afghanistan, now with drones flying about? he could be the worst president in history in terms of dealing with civil rights, civil liberties and racial issues.
His presidency was and is a failure and will be rightly and soundly rejected on election day. Im not a republican, in fact im a commie/socialist/anarchist, voting Ron paul.
The country is extremely mad right now. Its not just racist, tea baggers who hate him. Many people, have legitinate prblems with the last 4 years.
Look at it this way, if you were losing your farm, or your house was being foreclosed on in 2009 what strides have been made by ANYONE in electoral politics to address the situation.
Im unemployed, unemployable, in debt, and theres just no jobs. And thats just in terms of economic/labor issues. Obama, or for that matter Romney dont offer any type of future for me.
I couldnt be less interested in either party. One party will win in November, but lets face it, they are the only ones who are going to win. The american public loses no matter who gets into office.
One corporate buisness party with 2 right wings. Thats american "democracy" for you

I agree with a lot of this, although I don't even view it as 2 right wings. I view it as 2 corrupt, lying, self-interested entities who are more similar than they are different.
We can talk about all of the usual issues - civil rights, jobs, abortion, same-sex marriage, etc., but those are all very insignificant compared to what really needs to be done - overhaul the way our government works and cut out the incredibly vast amounts of waste, unnecessary programs and grid lock.
You alluded to this, but it's quite ironic how nobody is yelling "get them home" regarding the troops or close Gitmo, etc. It really shows the bias out there.
Can anyone else really believe that we've been at war for 10 years now? When will it end? The other great wars of our history didn't drag on close to this long.
The only people we should try to get even with...
...are those who've helped us.
Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
