She must have confused him with a MSNBC reporter.

Typical. I can’t even imagine the roles being reversed. Can anyone imagine Chris Mathews getting shoved around by some Republicans? I can’t but boy I’d like to see it.

One of these days (very soon) one or more of these “peaceful demonstrators” will be wearing an explosive vest, not hoping for it, but it is all too clear that these left wingers are getting more unhinged by the hour. What they will never realize is that the more they scream their insane “message” the less people want to hear ANYTHING they have to say, which starts the cycle of insanity churning even further, as nothing is more demeaning to an indoctrinated screamer than to be ignored.

So the guy complaining about “unhinged” protesters is named “demdicks”? Self awareness just exploded.

Oh, and thumbs up to the guy comparing “Griff” to Chris Matthews!

Hillary supporters on blogs and message boards got the same treatment. These lefties are nasty and vicious. No wonder they sympathize with Al Qeada.

I know this is a comment page and not a chat room or a political blog as many don’t seem to realize but anyway Hello Mike in Dallas- finally some cooler weather. Now for the comment.

So far the Dem convention is going about normal for the Dems. What a cross section of kooks! The so called demonstrators are doing the usual and trying to prevent anyone else from having their say except themselves and calling it “free speech”. Just as they do on liberal college campuses. They are not about debate or discussion as they claim-they are about chaos and anarchy. And they seem to think that includes throwing feces and urine on people hence the new law against it in Denver and a corral built just for them.

If anyone is confused about the difference between Democrats and Republicans just watch the conventions. Whatever you see happening there is an indication of what you can expect to see if that party takes office for 4 years.

The Democrats claim to represent the common man but then they talk of raising his taxes and the price of his gasoline and tolerating illegal labor who undercut his wages. They want to increase taxation on the businesses who employ him and pay his benefits. They want to make it impossible for him to defend himself and his family against criminals and at the same time undermine the efforts of law enforcement or the military to do the same. They tell him his laws and constitution are not good enough and must abandon them for European laws or UN supervision. They tell him he can’t even mention his own religion for fear it might offend some immigrants beliefs while promoting the immigrant’s religion at every opportunity. They tell him his own language is not good enough any more because the excessive number of immigrants, legal and illegal, who can’t and won’t speak it. They claim to be the best hope for the Black man yet in the last 40 years have only increased his dependence on welfare and gov’t programs and the drug culture the liberal Democrat promotes.
It seems to me that the Dems represent everyone except the ordinary citizen. If fact it seems they only want the ordinary citizen around for his tax money to use for promoting their anti-American world view.

Charles Tatum you are correct – the reporter is not supposed to be the story but because the “Liberals” refuse to let anyone hear opposing points of view he became the story in standing up for my 1st Ammmendent rights (It’s his job to keep the public (you and me) informed).

I have a right to hear why these people are protesting – are they afraid to state why? Are they ashamed of what they are doing or saying?

Do you agree with me or disagree?

THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
I know that some of you don’t like to read long drawn out missives…so here’s the executive summary………

Congress Military
John McCain 26 Years 22 Years

Barrack Obama 143 days 0

Summary Concluded – you’ve been schooled.

Dave in Denver   August 25th, 2008 - 3:22 pm

The Dem’s are tyring to figure out why they have been able to make inroads in Colorado. It is because the Dem’s in Colorado are moderate or centrist while the national party is being driving by the coasts and are going along with the left wing loony toons.

I don’t understand the mindless hatred that some people have for anyone associated with FOX news. I frequently alternate between different news shows, depending on the topics, and have no problem with FOX. Yes, it’s people may lean toward conservative views, but why is that so intolerable when their competitors lean toward liberal perspectives? Isn’t it better to explore different viewpoints? Would these haters prefer to live in a police state where only one perspective is allowed?

Dreadmore   August 25th, 2008 - 4:33 pm

this is what America will look like if hussein obamanation gets elected, every maniac in the nation will feel free to run rampant. crush these maniacs underfoot!

jim   August 25th, 2008 - 8:07 pm

So Obama’s camp includes Hollywood, al Qaeda and now anarchists too. That’s just great.

Jason   August 25th, 2008 - 8:08 pm

This guy is a little weiner. His hair looks like it came from 1968.

Chuck   August 25th, 2008 - 9:24 pm

Griff is one tough S.O.B.

LeftWingWHIMP   August 25th, 2008 - 9:26 pm

Liberals who want to sell America out will indeed if those of us who truly have BALLS dont’t take a stand and shove their own pathetic lifestyle back down their throat and up their as!

peter c   August 25th, 2008 - 9:49 pm

I e-mailed Churchhill once offering to meet him in a boxing ring for 3 rounds of boxing.I knew it would be the only way I could legally beat the hell ouyt of him…But of course this coward with the treasonus mouth was too afraid when he has to stand up to a Man.
Him, all this anarchist friends,all the Commies,Obamas,kennedys,Bidens,Pelosis’and Michelle Obama will lose big time come Sept.Then they will all call us Racists etc…Obama is just like Churchill only slicker.

BT   August 25th, 2008 - 9:54 pm

Yeah, the fact that Churchill wouldn’t meet a random guy on the internet, in person, in order to be beaten up, TOTALLY proves….well something I’m sure.

And Obama is TOTALLY like Churchill.

You are a scary man pete.

dreadmore   August 25th, 2008 - 10:05 pm

liberals are retrograde idiots, nothing but a bunch of lowlife commie nutjobs who should be pounded into the ground

Sigmond   August 25th, 2008 - 10:20 pm

The protesters will consider this convention a failure if they are unable to exceed the level of rioting, destruction and stupidity of the 1968 convention. I hope it all goes down on primetime TV. Maybe we’ll see armed conflict. I love a good show.

Charles Tatum   August 25th, 2008 - 10:30 pm

The reporter was showboating and enjoying every minute of it. The reporter is not the story. Journalism 101 teaches you that.

C. Les Peter   August 25th, 2008 - 10:49 pm

peter c, you the man! You the toughest guy in the hood. Well, in the house. Well, in the room. Okay, in the closet, then.

Rob Reiner   August 25th, 2008 - 11:29 pm

Hey man – I didn’t grant permission to put my photo on the news! I’ll sue! Where’s John Edwards when you need him?!?

Love,
Rob Reiner

PS) My name is NOT “Meathead”!

geezy   August 25th, 2008 - 11:30 pm

I get more and more confused every day as to why these dummy liberals don’t just move to Europe… why do they insist on ruining this country? What a miserable bunch.

Anarchist   August 25th, 2008 - 11:35 pm

This convention might be more entertaining than the Olympics! Vegas is laying 3 to 1 odds that Biden’s hair plugs will have a feature story of their own…

JustCurious   August 26th, 2008 - 12:26 am

Hi, if Obama gets elected president, how long will it take in your opinion before he is assasinated?

bt   August 26th, 2008 - 7:46 pm

Hey Geezy, when you and your ilk spent 8 years moaning about how Bill Clinton was ruining the country, how many times did people ask you to leave the country? Zero? How many times was your patriotism questioned? Zero? Why is an attack on Clinton perfectly OK, but an attack on Bush or McCain treason?

Because I don’t agree with what the President has done, or don’t wish to see what McCain WILL do, doesn’t mean I hate my country. Heck, if I hated my country I’d be out campaigning for 4 more disastrous years of a Republican president.
