A major new threat to the Republic

That's right - due to some urgent family business, I will be offline for a day or two. Consider this one of my rare open threads.

Here are a few things to get you going:

Did you know that we all "belong" to the government? If anybody's going to put us in chains, it's the Democrats.

For once, I pray Rahm Emanuel is right: "We have a once-in-a-generation president".

A drunken, misogynistic ghost puts in an appearance at the Democratic National Convention (where's the hologram of Kennedy and Dodd creating a waitress sandwich?)

Important update: Having dropped "God" from their platform, the Democrats are now apparently afraid of a lightning strike.

    I presume you're asking the Government for help with your family business, right?

    The "We All Belong to Government" blunder will mushroom as big as "You Didn't Build That." Mark it.

    I hope it's nothing serious.

    They had to use Teddy's ghost in order to round out the roster of speakers. Most of the Democratic Party has chickened out. Including the audience.

    I hope when Paco said family business, it didn't have anything to do with being summoned before don J. Packington Paco III.

    I don't think that's it, SwampWoman.

    Paco wasn't trembling so bad, he couldn't type.

    The real reason they are moving indoors, in case it rains: they don't make waterproof teleprompters.

    Deborah Leigh said.... Richard and I send our prayers and best wishes, Paco. We love open threads, but not like this. Hope all is well resolved very soon.

    Deborah Leigh said...Debbie WS said there was no discourse on the floor over God and Jerusalem. Yeah right. Deputy Party Chair Antonio Villariagosa (real name Villar, and Mayor of Los Angeles) had to count twice. In the end, the "nos" lost. Now the convention is on lockdown. Probably from the rioting over the count. They have a dead cowardly, murderer lion and, a lying, adulter, rapist, impeached former president to hold up as role models. The choice couldn't be clearer in November, but "none are so blind as those who will not see." In the meantime, watching the DNC is like the hokey pokey.

    Perhaps don J. Packington Paco III has some pressing family business for Paco to "take care of"?
    Some contracts are such sensitive nature that they cannot be sublet.
    E.g. a cousin has joined a federal choir, and don J. wants a family insider to arrange for the cousin to have very special boots fitted.

    I bet Paco is going to put his fringed leather Davy Crockett jacket on over an "I had an abortion" shirt, get some beads on hemp string, put on a hat with a windmill on top, rub some cheese on his armpits and once his hippy disguise is complete he'll try to win over the DNC delegates in a last ditch ploy to win the Democratic nomination for president.

    Then, once he gets a $400 haircut like John Edwards, tells people he still has John Kerry's hat to this day, gropes a couple feminists like Bill Clinton and promises everything to everybody then he'll be a shoe in.

    It is potentially shameful and degrading so it is no wonder he would claim to have "family business" but Paco would do it for the good of the country.

    Good luck with whatever's going on, Paco.

    A fringe leather Davy Crockett jacket means Native American genocide.

    The rest of that hippy shit doesn't go either, Paco needs Lenin glasses and a prim medicinal sexuality to capture the Fluke vote, a cold communion to sanctify abortion. No fun and games like groping feminists.

    Whoa! Waitacottinpikkinminit!

    Groping hot young chicky babes?
    Spending other people's money like I'm a drunken sailor?
    Saying what I like & groping attractive nubiles?
    And the media AND the entire feminist movement will cover for me? (I'm still struggling to comprehend that last one)

    Count me in!

    I think I'm a Democrat!

    Steve: The taxes, Steve, don't forget the taxes! And the regulatory costs. And national bankruptcy.

    Other than that, hey, pretty cool.
