  Some “Conventional” Wisdom from the Blogbatosphere

  
  

   

  
  

   

  
  

  It was an exciting day in freakdom as the Democrats came out into the light for their Imperial Rally. Today I’ll cover some of the more memorable events and end with my first ever “ATTA-boy” award, for acts of treachery or hypocrisy beyond the call of duty. Also of note was the news USA Today decided to spike Ann Coulter’s blog from the convention floor. You can find her banned ponderings here.

  
  

   

  
  

  To start things off in this blog, let’s go with Blogbat’s Convention Quote of the Day:

  
  

   

  
  

  “It’s not about gender, it’s about an agenda”. This interesting announcement (or confession) was made by none other than boxy Barbara Mikulski, “female” Senator from Maryland. Gruffly spoken to the slightly confused eyes of audience and camera alike as the other female Democrat senators looked on, Mikulski rattled on long enough for me to be glad all the more I wasn’t there. It was definately a tribute to “Feminazism” that only a Reno could love.

  
  

   

  
  

  And speaking of Janet the Reno, we were blessed with an opportunity to see her and some others in the crowd tonight in what I would say fairly well-resembled the tavern scene from the original Star Wars movie, absent the good music. (Janet Reno, according to some of my family members who knew the Renos, had dreamt of one day being President, while her sister was known for being in a lot of beds, but never sleeping. Reno, of course was beaten by Bush, Jeb, that is, in her run for Florida Governor- and so ended her little dream.)

  
  

   

  
  

  Natalie Portman (props to Michelle Malkin) has even been involved this year, apparently hoping to find the wookie of her dreams, strangely and eerily reminiscent of the celebrated spoofer Paul Shanklin’s 90’s parody hit, “Starr’s War”.

  
  

   

  
  

  Al Gore of course was also at the convention today, along with wife Tipsy. Tipsy, as we all might remember was the previous almost-First Lady press-darling who suffered bouts of depression…for some reason. During the festivities tonight, she and Al managed for our benefit to swap spit again (apparently because we didn’t get enough of her tree-hugging last time). Gore-y, indeed.

  
  

   

  
  

  During Al’s speech to the Convention, he reportedly began to worry a few when he suddenly started telling convention-goers that he could actually fly.

  
  

   

  
  

  Not to be outdone later on by former Peanut President Jimmy Carter’s speech (who brought back many fond Democrat memories of the Misery Index and the glories of foreign policy collapse), Al Gore again stood up telling those around him that he could really, really fly. Carter pleaded with him to sit down so he could finish his monophoniclogue about those crazy bellbottoms.

  
  

   

  
  

  Of course the speakers of the night were Billary. The press mostly was in a sustained state of “Clintasm” the entire time…except for CNN’s “Larry the Cucumber King, who was drooling at the feet of John Kerry’s daughters. The Clintons of course reminisced about the good ol’ days of living off the economic and strategic fat of the Reagan administration. Some even broke out in spontaneous singing of, “can’t stop thinkin’ bout…yesterday” at the end of Bill’s speech as he and the New York Senator practiced their 3^rd Reich Waves (apparently to impress French President Jacques Chirac). “Slick” also seemed to be wearing one of those bracelets of recent notoriety because of their reputation as being “sex bracelets”. Well, at least they are known to be such among some New York Jr. High girls. Now that’s scary.

  
  

   

  
  

   

  
  

  And the winner of this week’s “ATTA-boy” award is:

  
  

   

  
  

  Jimmy Carter.

  
  

   

  
  

  In tonight’s convention address he asserted,

  
  

   

  
  

  “Today, our dominant international challenge is to restore the greatness of America — based on telling the truth, a commitment to peace, and respect for civil liberties at home and basic human rights around the world,” he said. “Truth is the foundation of our global leadership, but our credibility has been shattered and we are left increasingly isolated and vulnerable in a hostile world. Without truth – without trust – America cannot flourish. Trust is at the very heart of our democracy, the sacred covenant between the president and the people.” – Quote courtesy of WorldNet Daily.

  
  

   

  
  

  Now that’s interesting. So Jimmy must then be admitting to the Clinton administration’s gutting of the military by 50%, its assault on US intelligence-gathering and what the definition of “is” is- or was.  Jimmy’s brother Billy helped, as we remember, to build that trust as he accepted bribes from Libya to the tune of $200,000 US to paint a rosy diplomatic picture for them inside the White House. Of course it is agreed President Carter himself, long known for his ever so tough stance on American foreign policy (tough on it, not with it), should be the one to criticize the current Bush administration’s doctrine and all of its foreign policy similarities to that of the Reagan era, which as we now know was a complete failure. And particularly such with regard to that still looming Soviet Union we face today…

  
  

   

  
  

  Thus, Carter is our first official recipient of Blogbat’s “ATTA-boy” award.

  
  

   

  
  

  Bonne chance, America!

  Sources say he is now medicated and doing, “much better”.
