Let’s kick off this convention right with an action alert from Red State:
As you know, the magazine Us Weekly will hit news stands this coming weekend with a hit job on Governor Sarah Palin.
Though Us Weekly claims that its coverage is very balanced, its cover features Governor Palin holding a baby with the headline “Babies, Lies, and Scandal.”
US Weekly, which has been a promotional vehicle for Senator Obama’s campaign, is in the tank for Barack Obama and will stop at nothing to ruin Governor Palin’s reputation.
Please consider doing this: When you go to the grocery story this week, pick up a couple of copies of Us Weekly and deposit them on the shelves where the toilet paper is located.
Killing me.
7:10 pm- Did they just say McCain is going to speak for 50 minutes? Kill me now.
7:33 pm- Watching the Skins. Someone IM me if anything interesting happens at the convention. Or just document it in the comments.
7:35 pm- This is the Palin Bio Video we “missed” last night because Rudy could not shut up. BSG was the better choice.
That was officially the worst bio video I have ever seen. Someone count the number of times moose hunter was mentioned.
Singularity
Yes, by all means. Punish US Weekly by making some bagboy’s life more difficult. Genius.
PaulW
And then get prosecuted by the grocery store chain for shoplifting. Silly conservatives!
Dear Redstate: if you don’t like your candidates getting vetted by the celebrity mags, you shouldn’t be selecting said candidates from the Jerry Springer shows.

Redneckiest national anthem performance, ever.

Been gone for a while and not sure if you have posted this Alaskan blogger before, but I will take that risk as this site is quite the insider perspective if you want the real local perspectives on Sarah Barracuda:

Typical. Make the “little people” who work in the store clean up their mess.

I love the idea! Please do. Please distribute the magazine far and wide, throughout the store and beyond! Put it by the milk! By the fabric softener! By the apples! Put it in as many high-visibility places as possible!
Buy copies and give them to your friends to wrap fish in!
Please play Johnny Appleseed to this damning article or else someone might miss it! What if there’s no line at the register?!
Idiots.

Sorry, let’s try this again

Because never ever goes down the toilet paper aisle. Genius!

Good thinking RedState. It will make a nice bathroom reader.
Not my fault
Could someone who understands polls explain how this and this could be describing the same country?
A.Political
Yes, but the speech only clocks in at 15 minutes, it’ll just take the guy 50 minutes to sputter it out.
Josh
Actually, since US is bathroom reading anyway, wouldn’t placing it next to the toilet paper be like guerilla marketing? I don’t expect the gang at Grey State to make the connection though.

He’s doing this to allow everyone to experience some of the torture he underwent as a POW.
Yes, John McCain was a POW.

You’re watching the convention? When there’s NFL football on? I know, it’s only Washington-New York, but it’s got to be better than the snorefest in St. Paul.

No shit, and what a horrible voice. They should have hired PeeWee Herman to sing it, it would have sounded soooo much better!
Every time McCain says change tonight, just think of him yelling at Cindy whenever his Depends are soggy and overflowing.

The DOW was off 344.6 today, down to 11,188.23. That’s only 3091.73 off its 52 week high. The tax cuts are working! We have to make them permanent!

Does RedState have ANY self-awareness?
That’s something a littel kid would think up, because you know, toilet paper equals poopoo and so is that mean magazine!

If Palin last night was channeling Buchanan in ’92, then McCain will be channeling Dole in ’96.
You do remember that speech, right?

Kudlow will need an ounce of blow to spin this one. Sorry Larry, it looks like the market doesn’t like Sarah the polar bear killer.
Matt D
Not to mention they’re just making things more difficult for the hearty blue-collar heroes that have to clean up the store.
capelza
Speaking of moose, someone needs to photoshop a picture of Palin killing Bullwinkle..
Not that there’s anything wrong with LEGALLY hunting moose (apparently some of her family has a slight problem with that), but it would still be funny and might stop the incessant moose stuff.
Oh, or let’s talk about moose turd jewelry.
b-psycho
Those morons seriously think people read supermarket tabloids & celeb rags for their political coverage?
Yeah, sure. That might be even more implausible than guys picking up Playboy for the articles.

Interesting. It appears from those pools that Barr would pull support from Obama more than it would from McCain.

Yeah, I hadn’t seen the video, I should have said Bullwinkle killer.

Don’t like a message so you widen the exposure to bring it to as many people’s attention as you can.

Somewhere, there are Republicans wailing “We could have had Mitt, Ron Paul, Rudy…”
The Moar You Know
Back in the day, when I was a stupid hippie running around my alma mater (good old UC Santa Cruz) I used to do a fuckton of acid. I mean, I was just blazed – 24/7. And I still, even when flying high on some awesome gel, had a far better grasp of reality than those poor bastards over at Red State.

Erick Erickson is standing next to Mitt Romney this week, helping him drown Irony in a bathtub.
Childish is the right word.

The stocker at the grocery store gave me a mean look when I was about to put the copy of Us Weekly on the bathroom-tissue, so, instead, I called to have a pizza delivered to the Us Weekly offices–with anchovies and moose meat! Ha, ha! Republican campaigning is fun!
Stuck in the Fun House
Just heard KO say Obama has risen 8 mill since the Palin speech and Magoo 1 million. Also heard some oil man say that the Caribou love drilling and will be voting for Palin and the old wrinkly guy . While the mosquito vote, of course will go dem. Mornin’ Joe says wingnuts are flat today and the hallways are empty, he didn’t think to check the bathrooms though. Ha

Oh, and looks like Cole was right, MCcain will take the high road and let the Barracuda handle the political knife fighting. Or so says Tucker Bounds who looks to me like Dana Carvey in disguise.
PeterJ
I read they are re-doing the stage so that it has a Town Hall feel…
Here’s a crazy idea. What if he’s not going to hold a proper speech, but a town hall meeting? Obviously scripted to hell, but they are going to argue that he doesn’t know any of the questions beforehand.
Would give him some cover for some questions and answers. (Not really, but they are going to argue that)
Just a crazy idea…
phobos
I used to go back and forth on Erick Erickson as being either clinically paranoid or just being a shrewd manipulator trolling for a bigger slice of wingnut welfare.
I’ve come to the conclusion that there isn’t much of a difference, practically speaking.
PeterJ

OK, is anyone taking one for the team and watching Obama on O’Reilly? I don’t get Fox.

When does white haired wrinkly guy speak?

Palin isn’t going to take ANY interviews.
Now that’s the kind of courage I want from my VP choice.
Tsulagi
You have to admit, Erick has been on fire lately. He’s got himself strapped into the driver’s seat of that short bus over there, has found a couple extra gears, and has it floored. And damn near all the riders have their padded helmets on properly inflated thanks to those McCain tire gauges. They’re a force.

I found a clip on YouTube of McCain reminiscing about his war days.
If by some slim chance McCain wins this fall, I think I found a clip that he could use to tell his side of the story.

I’m thinking the reason why Palin has so much contempt for community organizers, is that when she fired a librarian for refusing to ban books, the community got organized and forced Palin to reinstate her.

He needs 45 minutes just to get his hatred of Obama off his chest for a short while. The other five minutes will be talking about how much he loves his new running mate.

Bud Day is saying that McCain has fought in a war so he is capable of leading the military in a time of war. Really?
The only thing McCain’s military service shows me is that he was sixth worst performer out of a class of almost 900, that he was too busy being a troublemaker to learn how to fly a plane, that he was proficient in crashing planes and that he knows how to get captured by the enemy.
Whatta leader!
Bud Day is a Republican leg humper.

LiberalTarian
Have you noticed that McCain is trying to do appropriate Obama’s platform? If they hate him so much, how come they keep trying to take credit for his ideas??
Btw, great stuff on the Swampland blog today. Maybe Joke Line has figured out the acclaim is in actually sounding liberal, but lots of folks there are hitting the right note with me.
In the comments someone notes that Obama was a community organizer for the Catholic church in Chicago, and another notes how it was women community organizers who got women the right to vote. Good stuff.
SamFromUtah
And kill us they did. Over 3000 of us.
True enough, if phrased in a really beat-you-over-the-head inflammatory way.
Makes you wonder why Republicans haven’t bothered going after the culprits, dunnit?
montysano
Palin won’t be doing any interviews? Brilliant strategy! Genius. I totally recommend this. I want to hear Tweety barking away, every fucking day, while Sarahcuda remains in hiding. More of this, please.
BO was quite good on O’Reilly. All solutions, no spin. Should this be the new plan? Rather than avoiding Faux News, Limbaugh, etc, maybe he should demand airtime, take the fight to them. He’s that good.
Man, Lindsay Graham is so gay (not that there’s anything wrong with that :-) )
Just Some Fuckhead
O’Reilly: Alright, Mister Obama, you were absolutely correct that it was a bad mistake to drive off the bridge into the water. But I did that, that’s been done, we’re in the water now! You were right, I give you props for that. But when we landed in the water, I said we should quickly roll up the windows to keep the water out and you replied we should roll them down and try to get out. My car, my automatch windows, so I rolled them up. *cackles wisely* So, I was right, rolling up the windows kept the water out and now you won’t admit I was right and you were wrong. Why won’t you admit you were wrong, Mister Obama???
Obama: Bill, we’re sitting on the bottom of a lake under twenty feet of water.
O’Reilly: Still can’t admit you were wrong!

“Gee Obama, I’d LOVE to go out with you tonight, but, um, I have to wash my hair. You’re such a sweetheart for calling though. Big hugs. xoxox, Hills”.

With ‘uppity’ being dumped on Obama today, the fRight wing just had to follow up with some scary stuff for that old 1-2 punch. I think hard core Republicans lead a sad, scared life. They are willing to let our government destroy itself to try and prevent a terrorist attack. Chickenshits, every single one of them. Total chickenshits.
Republicans are verbal terrorists. Nothing more. They have nothing to offer except more hate and intolerance because that is what they have distilled themselves down to.,
I want to see Republican party shrunk to the point that we can drown it in a bathtub. Wanna help Grover?

An inanimate carbon rod…
Over 7000 if you count the ones McBush and pals sent over there so they wouldn’t have to kill us over here.

This means something…

Cartoonist in our regional paper went one better today, and showed Bullwinkle showing up onstage at the RNC with boxing gloves on.

I think someone needs to inform Lindsey that Iraq’s government is a friend of Iran.
Dreggas
It was not a tribute, it was all but a campaign commercial for McCain showing people dead or dying and claiming tying the attacks on 9-11 to the Iran hostage crisis. In other words complete and total bullshit and the networks showed it believing it was a “tribute”.

I would like to remind the great Representative from Oklahoma whose name I can’t remember but she seriously looked like Barbie Doll’s big sister:

“Advisers to Mrs. Clinton, who has been on vacation this week, said that she stands ready to help the Obama-Biden ticket, but they urged not to overestimate the effect she could have, noting that she had other commitments this fall, like campaigning and raising money for Senate candidates.”
I’m not sure if you’re posting this to show she’s not serious, but if you are, let me say that she’s probably downplaying her potential involvement to make sure that (a) she doesn’t overshadow Obama with the garbage stories about the alleged rift between them and/or (b) they downplay expectations, so that when she does campaign for him, it looks like she is enthusiastic.

That’s creepy — I just happened to be watching Rocky & Bullwinkle when I read your comment. Does that mean you owe me a beer or something?
Martin
No, it means there are limited polls out there covering 3rd parties, and those aren’t correlating with the polls that exclude 3rd parties.
IOW, ignore the 3rd party polls for now – they’re shitty. What’s more, ignore national polls now and forever – they’re about as useful as predicting the outcome of the election on the regularity of each candidates’ bowel movements.
Never forget that Al Gore won the national popular vote by about half a million.

But, I keep having this bad feeling they have another stolen election in the works. I think this post by Emptywheel might be figuring out part of the angle they plan to try to steal it with: Community Organizer.
I moved from one county to another recently, and I re-registered at an Obama table. I’m going to make VERY sure that my registration sticks. I think they’re going to try to work the election refs again this cycle, and we have to fight them tooth and nail.

Cindy McCain is a snoooooooooooozefest. Seriously, never put her in front of a crowd again. She’s just as bad as her damn husband. I half expect her to break out with “my friends”…
She is working the “it’s an ugly, no good, very bad world out there, and only John can save us from the ter’ists” shtick very well though. Although, maybe it’s the crazy, scary, botox eye look she has going on. I haven’t nailed that one down yet.

I read through all these comments to see if anyone else had noticed the dead ungulate in the picture that appeared as the voiceover spoke of “moose hunting” was quite obviously a non-moose. And I didn’t find one until the very last comment. Damn.
