Everytime I hear Hillary talk, I just get this overwhelming urge to throat punch her. 

Southtxponygirl - 2016-07-21 4:02 PM I cant stomach any thing that comes out of Hillarys face, I feel sorry for the police officers that have to work this convention.

I read somewhere they are having that nasty talking Lena Dunham too. Surely that's not true!

Frodo - 2016-07-23 8:14 AM

Someone said Trayvon Martin's mom would be speaking also.  Nothing like stirring up some racial fireworks and putting the police in jeopardy who are working this convention. 

RidenFly - 2016-07-23 7:51 AM

Holy cow.  Emails have been unearthed that the DNC and Hillary Clinton rigged something to ensure she won the nom.  Bernie voters should be livid.  It's not even making front of the news.  Trump even talked of this and here it is proving to be fact.  Wow.  Bernie may have won all along.  Lock her up is right.

Nevertooold - 2016-07-25 3:42 PM Looks like we will have some entertainment out of the DNC Convention. The Bernie supporters aren't happy...I am surprised they started off with a gospel song and had a prayer since they are the party that wants to take God out of everything...They have me very confused..The Bernie people are really ticked...



 

TrailGirl - 2016-07-25 4:45 PM To further illustrate how myopic and delusional Hillary really is...she has now hired D.W.Schultz as her honorary campaign chair going forward. I guess that's the usual payment for rigging a nomination.

daisycake123 - 2016-07-26 6:15 AM they where talking about this today. mrs obama didnot talk about the vetrans, isis, the milatary and the economy.

RidenFly - 2016-07-26 11:38 AM The corruption continues.  NOW the delegates have been told they will not have the roll call to announce thier nominee on the convention floor. Instead, they will vote at breakfast tomorow and announce on stage.   This is so bizzarro.

Bear - 2016-07-26 10:43 AM There will be no revolt. Remember, we're talking the DNC here. There will be a smattering of outbursts and a few protests, but they will come together like good, servile lemmings.

I just saw my first American Flag and it was outside being burnt by the Socialist followers of Bernie. I did hear one person screaming stop.

I tried listening to Bill about his recollection of their beginning but knew he was full of $%#& when he said "there she was in a long white, flowery skirt" I think the woman was born in an ugly pantsuit. He was boring and I'm not one to be "charmed." He still uses same hand gesturesi e his finger pointing and I was reminded of a liar who looked directly into the eye of the AMERICAN people and LIED pointing his finger and saying, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman." His trysts have continued, he and Hillary get richer and the women become victims of their runaway train of destruction.

Griz - 2016-07-28 3:16 AM "I think the woman was born in an ugly pantsuit. " - OMG - absolutely hilarious!

Oh I know it's mean but Ivanka is a supermodel next to Chelsea.

 

jake16 - 2016-07-29 7:46 AM


True story!!!!!! Lololol. Not mean given the fact Chelsea's UNCLASS ACT OF CALLING IVANKA OUT SHOWED no class whatsoever. doesn't surprise me though.she acts like a thug to when she thinks no one is looking.

Palopony - 2016-07-29 11:45 AM


Please show me?   Copy of her speech

It is such an honor for me to be here tonight. I'm here as a proud American, a proud Democrat, a proud mother. And tonight, in particular, and very proud daughter.
Mark and I can't quite believe it, but our daughter Charlotte is nearly two years old. She loves Elmo, she loves blueberries and above all, she loves Facetiming with Grandma. My mom can be about to walk on stage and it just does not matter, she will drop everything for a few minutes of blowing kisses and reading "Chugga-Chugga Choo-Choo" with her granddaughter. Our son, Aidan, is five and a half weeks old. We are so thankful that he is healthy and thriving and we are biased, but we think he is just about the cutest baby in the world — a view I'm sure my mom shares. And every day that I spend with them as Charlotte and Aidan's mother, I think about my own mother. My wonderful, thoughtful, hilarious mother.
My earliest memory is my mom picking me up after I had fallen down, giving me a big hug, and reading me "Goodnight Moon." From that moment to this one — every single memory I have of my mom is that regardless of what was happening in her life, she was always there for me. Every soccer game, every softball game, every piano recital, every dance recital. Sundays spent together at church, the local library, countless Saturdays finding shapes in the clouds.
Making up stories about what we would do if we met a Triceratops — in my opinion, the friendliest looking dinosaur — although my mother would remind me that they were still dinosaurs. As a kid I was pretty obsessed with dinosaurs and the day that my parents took me to Dinosaur National Park, I didn’t think life could get any better.Whenever my mom was away for work, which thankfully did not happen very often, she let notes for me to open every day she was gone. All stacked neatly together in a special drawer with a date on the front of each one, so I would know which note to open on which day. When she went to France to learn about the childcare system, I remember one was all about the Eiffel Tower. Another was about that ideas she helped to bring home to help the kids of Arkansas. I treasured each and every one of those notes. They were another reminder that I was always in her thoughts and in her heart.
Growing up, conversations around the dinner table always started with what I learned in school that day. I remember one week talking incessantly about a book that had captured my imagination, "A Wrinkle in Time." Only after my parents had listened to me talk, would they then talk about what they were working on: education, health care consuming their days and keeping them up at night.
I love that my parents expected me to have opinions and to be able to back them up with facts. I never once doubted that my parents cared about my thoughts and my ideas, and I always knew how deeply they love me. That feeling of being valued and loved — that is what my mom wants for every child. It is the calling of her life.My parents raised me to know how lucky I was that I never had to worry about food on the table, that I never had to worry about a good school to go to. Never had to worry about a safe neighborhood to play in. And they taught me to care about what happens in the world. And to do whatever I can to change what frustrated me, what felt wrong. They taught me that’s the responsibility that comes with being smiled on by fate.
I know my kids are little young, but I'm already trying to instill those same values in them. There's something else that my mother taught me: public service is about service. And as her daughter, I've had a special window into how she serves. I’ve seen her holding the hands of mothers worried about how they will feed their kids, worried about how they will get them the healthcare they need. My mother promised to do everything she could to help. I have seen her right after those conversations getting straight to work. Figuring out what she could do, who she could call. How fast she could get results. She always feels like there isn't a moment to lose because she knows that for that mother, for that family, there isn’t.
And I've seen her at the low points, like the summer of 1994. Several people this week have talked about her fight for universal health care. I saw it up close. It was bruising. It was exhausting. She fought her heart out and as all of you know, she lost. For me, 14 years old, it was pretty tough to watch. But my mom, she was amazing. She took a little time to replenish her spirit — family movie night definitely helped. Dad, as all of you know, liked "Police Academy." My mom and I loved "Pride and Prejudice." And then she got right back to work. Because she believed she could still make a difference for kids.
People ask me all the time — how does she do it? How does she keep going amid the sound and politics? Here is how: she never, ever forgets who she is fighting for.
She has worked to make it easier for foster kids to get adopted. For 9/11 first responders to get the health care they deserve. For women around the world to be safe, to be treated with dignity, and to have more opportunity. Fights like these, they are what keep my mother going. They grabbed her heart. Her conscience. And they never let go. That is to my mom. She's a listener, a doer. She is a woman driven by compassion, by faith, but a fierce sense of justice and a heart full of love.
Come this November, I'm voting for a woman as a role model and a mother. A woman who has spent her entire life fighting for families and children. I'm voting for the Progressive who will protect our planet from climate change, who will reform our criminal justice system, who knows that women's rights are human rights, and who knows that LGBT rights are human rights. Here at home, and around the world, I'm voting for a fighter who never ever gives up and who believes we can always do better when we come together and work together.
I hope that my children will someday be as proud of me as I am of my mom. I am so grateful to be her daughter. I'm so grateful that she is Charlotte and Aidan's grandmother. She makes me proud every single day. And mom, grandma would be so proud of you tonight.
To everyone watching here at home, I know with all my heart that my mother will make us proud as our next president.

GLP - 2016-07-29 11:51 AM I haven't watched either convention, I already know who I have to vote for. I don't need to hear Hilary spew her crap. I have watched her for too many years show her true colors. I won't ever vote for her. My poor husband came home from work, Flint Hills Resources (owned by the Koch brothers), upset because for years all they have said is how terrible Hillary is and NOW they want their employees to support her. Didn't surprise me one bit, but that's whole other can of worms, lol.

Griz - 2016-07-28 5:16 AM

SC Wrangler - 2016-07-29 10:00 PM


The Koch boys have a huge fortune and many many years work invested in setting up the GOP to fit their personal agenda and now it is not panning out. Wonder how many democrats they can get bought before the elections 

GLP - 2016-07-30 7:20 AM


No telling- but the guys at work have cancelled their contributions to a fund that Koch set up for political support. It shocked the HR department. Told the guys that it wasn't just for the presidential race, lol. Their reply was that they didn't want to contribute to Hillary or any other demo, so they were canceling their contributions. It won't hurt the Koch brothers much I sm sure, but I think the very fact that the employees proved they weren't sheeple was shocking.

Falconone1981 - 2016-07-29 11:10 PM When are people going to wake up and realize that BOTH party's are the very same put them in a sack and shake them up and they all will fall out at the same time !!!!! Wake up people !!!! All rich people stick together !!! They care nothing about ALL of us little worker rats on the bottom !!!

Bibliafarm - 2016-07-30 7:38 PM


if it wasnt for those rich people all the little worker rats wouldnt have jobs....................what a stupid statement on your part!!

Am a patriot I believe in protecting my country from its government !! Does that answer your question ???

Falconone1981 - 2016-07-31 10:54 PM

Haha and as far as wages!!! If the minimum wage would have kepted up with inflation it would be around 18.00 hr right now instead of 7.25!!!! Take some history lessons lol lol

Palopony - 2016-07-29 11:36 AM  At a Facebook Live event organized by Glamour, Chelsea was asked to address the claims Ivanka made during her RNC speech that President Trump would advocate for equal pay and accessible child care.

Chelsea’s response to Ivanka?

“How would your father do that?”

“Given it’s not something that he has spoken about, there are no policies on any of those fronts,” she said. “So I think the ‘how’ question is super important. In politics as it is in life.”

Honestly, we think Chelsea handled this really well. She was respectful in asking Ivanka to back up her claims without backing down on her convictions, and she did it without turning the issue into a personal attack against Ivanka.



This was all I could find, please let me be called out by Chelsea someday she is awful.



Jake16  I am honestly not picking on you at all I just wanted to see, you did say True Story!!!!! You also told everyone the other day that the convention hall was empty before Bill Clinton spoke.  I wondered why since you were at work but I can tell you it wasn't at all.  I watched both conventions from 8 pm till they went off.  You may be confused because they did all leave after Trump's wife spoke.  The news people were freaking out talking about how rude it was, I personally think it was past their bed times.



Go ahead and attack away this thread needed some activity, I must go get something done.  So go ahead and call me a hit and run.  I will just give you something to talk about, I can't believe in 4 days this is all the activity it has had, mostly just hate filled.  I'm shocked at the things said by people who don't even watch.  I believe in listening to both before I decide, seems to be a real problem with both sides in the land of the free.  Still shocked we don't have better choices and no I'm not a Bernie fan.



Just remember when you call me out...... call me out like Chelsea I thought she showed class, I can handle that.  Also please I sure hope I don't cause anyone to throw up in their mouth, that just makes me sick you should get that checked.



Ivanka should look like a super model compared to Chelsea she was bred to be, and when his dam got old he dumped her for a newer model, family values with a gag order 2x.  Sorry I will have reading over my morning coffee tomorrow and I was bored.  One more and I swear I have to work how does he get away without showing his taxes?   He had a fit when Mitt Romney wouldn't release his and forced him to do it.  I can't respect him for that I believe he is hiding something.  Flame suit zipped and going to the barn.

Frodo - 2016-08-01 7:34 AM His taxes are being audited.  Divulging not allowed during this process.  Big to-do about nothing.



 

Falconone1981 - 2016-08-01 8:13 AM

Lol lol am not ticked at the rich!!! You just need to reliaze who is running everything!! Lol and how much is Hillary or Donald worth ??? Enough said!!!

Falconone1981 - 2016-08-01 8:22 AM

Bear - 2016-08-01 7:52 AM I just wish some people would have enough self respect to write, spell, punctuate, and communicate properly. I get embarrassed for them. It should be a matter of pride, but that seems to have gone by the wayside. I can see why someone would fight hard for a minimum wage, when they don't know the difference between "their, they're, and there".

Falconone1981 - 2016-08-01 8:29 AM

Oh and by the way Bear !!! Books smarts so to speak!!! Does not give you common sense George Washington did not even have a grade school education!!!!

 This post just makes me laugh out loud and is so typical.   I love it when someone doesn’t agree with the masses and post their opinion, just pick on spelling and punctuation.  Way to keep the conversation going just run off anyone thinking different any way you can.

I have been reading this board for 10 years and what I have read amazes me.  I have a question for you all if you don’t mind.   How come during the Bush years one was never allowed to call him names or make fun of his goofs?  You all said it was because he was the President and we had to respect the man in office.  I see for the last 7.5 years that has not been true, care to explain?

My opinion is if you vote you have a right to speak whatever you wish good or bad so I don’t care.  Just wondering why the double standard.  If you run for office you must have a thick skin goes with the territory.

On spelling and punctuation I’m old and when I type sometimes my brain over run my fingers.  Think of it as those little posts on face book that only smart people can read, I think most get the meaning.  You people running off bad spelling and grammar may be running off some of the best horse talent ever.  Again I’m old and I know spelling and grammar isn’t their strong suit.

One final note Bush put my 401K in the trash at least Obama has got it back and more, I also appreciate it when I fill up my gas & diesel tank.  We are also in the construction business it’s going great around here.  If you were getting rich off high priced oil I can see why you hate him.  Sorry

I have a lot of self respect and please don’t be embarrassed for me.  I’m retired and would rather ride than worry about my grammar on a barrel horse board.  I would think you would have better things to do myself that degrade someone who has an opinion different that you.  Have a nice day.

iloveequine40 - 2016-08-01 9:42 AM Just to be fair and balanced, I make fun of both nominees. Secondly, I don't mind the person disagreeing but I'm really confused as to WHAT they're talking about based on their contradictory statements. People didn't make fun of Bush because he was still respectful. Obama not so much. He doesn't give 2 effs about the people of this country, especially not the "white trash males" who support Trump. EVERYTIME he, Hillary or Pelosi open their mouths it is dripping with condescendion towards white people. I don't like Obama, I've always thought he was arrogant, just look at his body language. He's always been a snot

NJJ - 2016-08-01 10:15 AM Ohhhh...pulllleeeeeze .... don't go THERE......condecending and arrogant?



Take a "real" look at statements made by Trump. He has, continually, made outrageous, offensive and condecending statements towards women, gays, Hispanics, Muslims, African Americans, Military veterans, disabled people, etc, etc, etc ...... I guess you could call him an "equal opportunity" idiot ...... the best things that the Republicans could do, right now, is put tape over his mouth and break his fingers so he can't tweet .....  

iloveequine40 - 2016-08-01 10:49 AM

I actually WILL go there. I can because I'm not a hypocrite! I DONT agree with everything Trump says and do wish he'd be quiet sometimes. However, you can't compare the 2, Obama is an ELECTED official, the POTUS who's responsibility is to ALL its citizens, not just the minority groups. WHY is it still ok to refer to blue collar workers as "white trash?" I'm fed up with his attitude and that of the Democratic party that touts white privilege and racism is the problem. You know what white privilege looks like? Calluses, dirty boots, 60+ hours a week, tiredness, no vacations or extravagant luxuries, I could go on. For 25 years we've worked to have what we have to be told by obozo it was by white privilege. I don't blame Obama for our strugglee except for the ridiculous obozocare, I don't like HIS attitude towards America or Americans.
