GOP Convention fulfills prophetic statement

Taichiliberal

Shaken, not stirred!
Listening on the radio to some of the outrageous assertions, distortions, half truths and outright lies told by some of the speakers at the GOP Convention, it brings to mind this old statement:

“When fascism comes to America, it will come wrapped in the flag and waving a cross”

Chris Christie just gave his speech for the 2016 candidacy! He mentioned Mitt at the last minute! I am still chuckling!

I know....the little blimp knows he has a better chance of getting those chumps to foot the bill for a 2016 run at the Presidency than getting re-elected in New Jersey. I get a kick out of watching a 300 pound man talking about sacrifice.
 
I can't watch him. It's like any second his face is gonna puff up and turn red and he yells "TO THE MOON ALICE!"

LMAO I love Jackie Gleason though! Although you know Howey, I read that he was a Republican! Anyway I didn't watch the convention at all. I saw too much of those blood thirsty maniacs in 08 and the memory of all those wrinkled white faces, filled with rage and hate, is enough for me! Thanks anyway! I heard that Ann Romney channeled Oprah and sang out "Women I love you, I love you! I hear you I hear you!" I don't think you hear me hon, you know what I mean?
 
So I just saw a clip of Ann looking into the camera and informing me that "this is OUR country". Who is "our"??? I would really like to see Obama address this right wing meme. You know like when that buffoon told people "this is my church" after he spoke and before Obama did, and Obama said in his totally uniquely good natured chuckling, yet somehow still very firm, way "this is my church too". If I said that, it'd come off all "this is my church too motherfucker". But Obama has that way. I'd like to see him use that way of his to address this meme. It aggravates the shit out of me.

I laughed so hard because Ann Romnet gives this speech about love, love, love, then Jerseyboy comes on and says, it isn't about love, its about respect! Bawahahha, shut her down, clown!

Some of the Christie jokes on Twitter are hilarious:

A charming GOP conventioneer threw peanuts at a Black CNN camerawoman last night. Unfortunately, Chris Christie ate all the evidence.

Chris Christie is tired of all the fat jokes: "I'm also a bully and not very good at my job. Why don't you joke about that?"

Wall St bankers wrecked the financial system & ripped off billions; Chris Christie wants you to be mad at teachers unions.

Denis Leary ‏@denisleary

Ann Romney talking about middle class moms is like Chris Christie talking about a salad.

Paul Ryan Gosling ‏@PaulRyanGosling

Hey girl, I'm so hungover. Someone thought it would be fun to drink every time Chris Christie said "like I did in NJ."

Philadelphia Inquirer manages to get two headlines with the word HUGE next to its Chris Christie photo. http://bit.ly/Nx4k76

Last night Ann Romney & Chris Christie taught me that I should love Mitt Romney but not mention him too much.

Bill Maher ‏@billmaher

I think #ChrisChristie is an excellent speaker, but I was surprised that halfway thru his argument collapsed. And the stage didn't.

Social Media Insider ‏@SocialMedia411

RT @desusnice: Romney looked at Chris Christie the way every member of Destiny's Child looked at Beyonce. He knows.

Rachel @Maddow: "This was Chris Christie accepting the Republican nomination for 2016." Notes speech's "selfishness."

jimgeraghty ‏@jimgeraghty

When Chris Christie tells you to stand up, you @#$% stand up.

Louis Virtel ‏@louisvirtel

Chris Christie gives me hope that one day America will elect a CBS sitcom to the presidency.

Not Bill Walton ‏@NotBillWalton

Chris Christie said Mitt Romney will tell us the hard truths we need to hear. Like "Put down the fork and step away from the table, Chris."

I thought Chris Christie was great in WALL-E

osh Gondelman ‏@joshgondelman

Chris Christie just mentioned reducing the size of government. What does he know about portion control?

Frank Conniff ‏@FrankConniff

Chris Christie's dad worked at an Ice Cream factory? The Apple Pie doesn't fall far from the tree.


And finally...my favorite (other than my tweet)

Dave Rubin ‏@RubinReport

I don't wanna just make fat jokes about Chris Christie, but he's so fat that his last name ate his first name.
