Did you witness that Nuremberg style rally last night? Scary…very scary.

Hey glenn! Yep, it’s fine. I knew Warren wouldn’t be picked and Hillary was just making a gesture to Bernie supporters.
AdLib 3 hours ago
S-Man – Nice to see you! Yep, had everything but goosestepping…but I might have missed that.
AdLib 3 hours ago
I was waiting for the views from outside with the torches

Ad–I’m glad Warren will still be in the Senate to keep Hillary on her toes!

S-Man–I was waiting for the breaking glass!

Ad–we may not have had the goose-stepping, but we did have the salute from Ingraham!

Even more disgusting was the fawning done by our “Fourth Estate”

S-Man – I checked out reviews in the papers right afterwards and it confirmed that most saw it as we did, as a prelude to burning down the Reichstag…er…SCOTUS.

Warren can accomplish much more in the Senate than as VP
S-Man

All hail Lord Trump! He can wave his hand and solve all problems! Bow down to your master!
AdLib 3 hours ago
S-Man–agreed. I like her right where she is.

Ad–and he’s even going to “protect” the LGBT community!

S-Man – Chris Matthews was snuggling up to Manafort and other Repubs about how great the night was for Repubs. Nauseating.
AdLib 3 hours ago
Papers yes but most voters get their news from TV or the accompanying websites and there was much gushing about the speech
S-Man

3 hours ago
After the way Manafort lied they should just give him a dead mic
S-Man

S-Man – Yes, she’s not a second banana and Warren would outshine Hillary as VP. Not a natural fit and she can indeed accomplish much more in a Dem controlled Senate.
AdLib 3 hours ago
S-Man–I’m not sure I read the same websites you do, because the comments I saw, even from repub “pundits” were negative. However, I don’t watch network tv, so is that where you saw it?
glenn

3 hours ago
That’s what I thought, too popular for VP
S-Man

glenn – Trump only promised to protect LGBTQs from foreign extremists…not domestic ones in the GOP.

Good Friday evening, Planeteers. I’m glad the breeze is coming from the west and not the east here in Ohio. Poor Cleveland is still airing out after a week of smelly hot air. And we’re not talking the burning Cuyahoga River.

Hey Kes–long time, no “see”. How are you?
glenn

Hey Kes! Heh, it will take a few tire fires to improve the odor that the RNC left in OH.
AdLib 3 hours ago
Yes, network…after the rally I was skipping around and only npr on PBS seemed to get it
S-Man

Good to see you, glenn! Trying to survive a heat wave here… heat index is nearly 100F!
kesmarn

Hey Kes, boiling in Philly too.
S-Man

3 hours ago
S-Man–that’s mainly why I don’t watch the networks any more. I’m so sick of the networks not calling out repub lies.
glenn

3 hours ago
Is it, S-Man? Try to stay cool! Hoping things are better before the convention starts.
kesmarn

3 hours ago
Kes–oh dear! Do you think your heat wave is from all that hot air generated in Cleveland?
glenn

3 hours ago
It’s been 115 here in LA, 111 today which we call “cool”.
AdLib 2 hours ago
I view them to see what most people will see I never expect them to actually do their jobs

Cleveland definitely didn’t help, glenn!

111F In LA, AdLib??? Yikes! I feel a little less sorry for myself.

S-Man – I actually saw Trump’s speech broadly condemned on tv and elswhere, only the RW outlets complimented it for the most part. And now the DNC comes (to your town) with a chance to be positive against that backdrop of darkness and hatred. Hillary will get a real bounce, I doubt Trump will.
AdLib 2 hours ago
S-Man–isn’t a shame how low our expectations have become? And, now with trump, the newest low is the new normal. SMH!
glenn

At least there’s one less Roger Ailes at FOX…
kesmarn

2 hours ago
Kes – Can you believe what a 1-2 punch it was to the GOP yesterday? Trump takes over their party and Ailes is removed from promoting it. A good day for democracy.
AdLib 2 hours ago
It was! And one other good thing is that Cleveland was so peaceful and handled things so well!
kesmarn

There are things to be hopeful about. What d’you all think of HRC’s selection of Tim Kaine for VP?
kesmarn

2 hours ago
What I saw were some reporters on each network playing down the negatives, tell it like it is—speech should have been in German
S-Man

2 hours ago
Not thrilled by the Kaine pick but not a big enough deal to be too bothered by it. I knew Hillary would pick a conservative Dem most likely, that’s more in keeping with her sensibilities. But compared to Trump?
AdLib 2 hours ago
I was disappointed. But at least he’s a genial conservative. Not a mean or “get off my lawn” type.
kesmarn

2 hours ago
S-Man, yes, saw the quote from Kasparov. Pretty funny!
AdLib 2 hours ago
Kaine is OK I guess. I think she was cautioned about picking too liberal a running mate.
