RNC Amway convention
I only watched for a few minutes last night before I had to go :puke: , but it really did remind me of an Amway rally I got kidnapped to go to many years ago. I've never seen so many guys in dark suits, white shirts, ties, and the women in semi formal dresses in one place in a long time.

Creepy.

1. They are just pretending it to be a convention for the RNC
In reality it is an Amway convention.

3. Ah, Amway, the great American Scam....
...they tried to morph their image by changing their name to Quixtar (pronounced Quick Tar) and after several years of abject failure in the U.S. they've quietly tried again to rehab their image as Amway again.
