Something we will NOT see at the RNC convention!
How much would you like to bet we will NOT see ONE VET who served with Bushit stand in front of the world and tell us how he served honorably with bravery and courage?

1. As Likely As Fratboys
As likely as Yale fratboys who snorted coke with the young George Bush.

3. Who actually would want to be seen with him?
Even if someone did see him in the locker room when he "checked" in, who would want to admit that they "served" with him and supports him..??? :puke:

5. I was thinking...
Black people won't be seen that much at the RNC convention. But yeah... Vets are another group.

8. Au contraire...
I'm embarrassed to say that the few who go will probably get an extra suntan from all the tokenist spotlighting they'll get.

It won't be anything like the Dem convention where we were all over the FLOOR, but I'm sure there will be black Pubs spotlighted throughout the convention for the cameras.

7. You can't see...
...what doesn't exist.

If Bush could find (or fake or use his rich paymasters' money to buy) such a mythical being, don't you think he would have by now?

Do you think any of the so-called pundits will have the minimal integrity it would take to point this out? I don't either.

9. Also not present at the repuke convention:
Ron Reagan, his mother and sister; accomplished, well-spoken daughters of the candidate; intelligent, accomplished wife of the candidate fluent in five languages; handsome, charismatic, champion of the people VP candidate with intelligent, accomplished wife and beautiful young family; delegates representing every race and religion in the country; Iliana Wexler sending potty-mouth cheney off for his time-out; gifted, eloquent, inspirational speakers like the Big Dawg and Barack Obama.

Most importantly what will be missing at the repuke fest is the compassion, integrity, and basic decency that is at the heart of the Democratic Party.
