Bush to Speak to Republican Convention

Over a year the media sat on the story that Obama attended the WHITE HATE church for over 20 years. This would of changed the election in IOWA with out a doubt. But less than a week for them to report a teenager got pregnant. This proves why they did not report the sex scandal that J Edwards had. The media is so far left they are sicking

Hamburter,
Why don’t you stop making your stupid and meaningless racist comments you damn biggot. It is too bad that McCain is going to lose by a landslide. You will get over it in due course.

hamburter
what happened to all that experience talk? oh thats right your talking points have been lambasted because now you realize your guy made a vp on a political gamble, a political gimmick… and after months of the attacks the message that the campaign has polished for you people was completley over written by such a crazy vp pick.
I mean its not bad enough that he just seemed to wake up one day and pick the vp for his candidacy (this shows judgment i might remind you), but at least he could have had SOME vetting done before the pick… like maybe on wednesday he could have done some digging around instead of… well today

Hamburter
I am white . You are true racist. My friends who are white totally like Obama but will not vote for him. do you know what they said ?
He is black.
There are racist people like Old Hamburter … Go and back to your trash house and go home

I am so racist i have to attend RACIST ANNOUNOYMOUS. Its sort of like AAA for drinkers. Oh i just don;t get it.

CNN just had Obama on their network responding to what people have been saying … that he has less executive experience than Palin …
CNN is not a trustworthy channel. I was told that for many years but I did not believe that. I used to watch CNN everyday … it is NOW that I understand what my colleagues have been telling me.
They have told me that CNN would pose issues with questions as if they were seeking the truth. But what they present after that is all one sided … e.g in this election, everything they say is PRO-OBAMA.
So tune CNN OFF … I now tune to FOX NEWS … and instead of being a Rush Limbaugh critic which I was for years, CNN has turned me into a Rush Limbaugh listener … IMAGINE THAT … !!!
And do you wonder why statistics show Rush Limbaugh’s radio show is gaining in listeners every year … Rush Limbaugh, you have CNN to thank for that .

I do not trust anybody that says Obama is scummy trash like he really is

You, bloggers, should be aware that there are people posting remarks using the names of others …

I voted for Clinton, I even voted for Kerry .. and I am a Republican… I would have voted for Hillary …
But now, I am voting MCCAIN/Palin …
CNN does turn me off as well ….
Glad to stand with the Republicans this time around. Obamamania is so totally senseless, baseless. It is just totally crazy .. As if we have all lost our minds.
The fireworks display, the greek stage, the open arena with 70,000 , the euphoria over what? The Democrats are heralding someone who has done nothing really …

a friend called to say the protest’s at the rnc are really bad. how bad will it get when bush arrives tomorrow.

Looks like Obama didn’t vet Biden. His brother and his LOBBYIST son (I thought lobbyists were evil according to Obama) are being SUED for HEDGEFUND fraud.
Obama has bad judgment.

President Bush’s presence at the RNC only serves as a reminder to us of how many mistakes can be made in 8 years and how many opportunities have been lost because the wrong man was in the White House.
It is in part because of these mistakes–and Sen. McCain’s willingness to go along with them–that I will be voting for Sen. Obama, one of the best candidates of any party ever to campaign for President of the United States of America.

Mike, yes not all has been perfect but we all know Bush is a hell of a lot better than Al Gore or Kerry would have been.
And since Obama can’t even crack 50% that means Bush not as unpopular as you all think.
Remember democrats in congress are at 9%
LOL.

That’s really too bad for GOP. Now they have much less respect from the country and the world for having a total idiot to speak at their convention.

Barbara, you mean Obama is speaking out our convention? Wow.
Lol. Moron.

The following is one of the funniest things I have ever read!
Its great to hear that our honorable president will participate in the RNC, he has done a great job thru the years in keeping us as safe as possible, my hat is off for the man. Thank you kindly Mr. President for your integrity and sound judgement, I would have voted for you again if it were possible.
About NoBama, well, is not about him being kinda’ black, is about little or no experience. McCain sweeps the floor with Hussein’s experience. Okay, I also admit that I will never vote for anything even remotely connected to islam. I hate islam and Ayatollah crap and koran crap and Muhamad crap.
IN GOD WE TRUST

McCain just figured that since Obama didn’t mean what he said about “change” (by picking insider Biden) then he didn’t have to worry about “experience”….
Besides, McCain is ready from day one. We have to hope for Obama to die to get the guy who knows what he’s doing.
That’s a toughie. LOL.

Remember democrats in congress are at 9%
LOL.
You know why? Because they haven’t had the guts to stand up to Shrub.

Bring him on!

Wow!!!! the Republican trolls are out in force today flooding the blogs with their drivel. Hey, you know, it would be nice if you guys actually stuck to the subject the article addresses, namely, Bush. I find it fitting, both symbolically and literally that Bush jr. is addressing the convention on the second day after a hurricane forced him to cancel day one. After all, he is second rate. Love the irony of it.

The Republicans have now sealed their fate in history as the most pathetic losers in history of mankind. Only morons would listen to the world’s biggest moron and a miserable failure speaks. Hint: google “miserable failure”.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news to you knuckle-dragging backwards Repukes, but your mindset is a dying breed. America is finally evolving, and unless you adapt and move along with the rest of humanity, you will be left behind. I believe it’s known as survival of the fittest.

I love it when pubs go online and say they are dems now voting McBain. Not me…I’m a long time pub so disgusted with McCain and now his pick of Palin…that I’m voting Obama/Biden. I also use to religiously watch Fox news but now I see they are a biased network so I’m going to watch other networks. I also think that Palin should be president and her daughter should be VP…because they are good people.

Jo said: “And since Obama can’t even crack 50% that means Bush not as unpopular as you all think.”
Poor Jo…Sorry to inform you that the new USA Today poll that just came out tonight has Senator Obama at 50% to mccain’s 43%.
And by the way…bush is TOTALLY unpopular to more than 80% of the country. Those of us who use our brains.

Bush is speaking at the convention:
epic fail

Serz,
You say you can’t wait until Palin and Biden debate? That she is an expert and will knock him under the table?
Why then, was your unqualified VP candidate reported as praising Senator Obama’s Energy Plan?
“We in Alaska feel that crunch and are taking steps to address it right here at home,” Palin’s press release read. “This is a tool that must be on the table to buy us time until our long-term energy plans can be put into place. We have already enjoyed the support of Alaska Senator Ted Stevens, and it is gratifying to see Senator Obama get on board.”
Clearly no republican could EVER think highly of something that we evil democrats would put forward!
Id love to shake McCain’s hand for effectively handing President Obama the election. He could not have made a worse political gamble!

I used to teach American History and my specialty was the Civil War. One aspect of Civil War combat that I was never able to grasp personally was the breadth and depth of hatred that could compel large groups of men to stand — sometimes within a stone’s throw of each other — and fire large lead balls at each other or to stab, club, bite and otherwise maim and kill each other hand-to-hand. Was it simple discipline or something more? Reading the comments above filled with bigotry, class and race hatred and simple ignorant prejudice has given me part of he answer. Were some of the more virulent commenters standing across the street from me I believe I could happily pull the lanyard of a cannon loaded with chain, nails, buckshot, old horseshoes and anything else that could be lethal and turn those social pimples into a fine red pulp. War is bad in that it kills off a disproportionate number of brave souls, but it does have the advantage of ridding society of some of the more unfortunate genetic and social misfits.

Our “honorable president”? The only thing lower than his approval rating is your IQ. And thank you so much John McCain for picking Sarah Palin. She truly IS the gift that keeps giving. The National Enquirer (who destroyed John Edwards) is setting up camp in Alaska as we speak. Wonder what goodies they’ll dig up? Getcha popcorn ready!

Mc cain thought he had a ace up his sleeves, but it turned out he was asleep at the switch. Now he has an albatross around his neck and every day she adds fuel to the fire. Now mc cain is between the devil and the deep blue sea, between a rock and a hard place so now he has to bite the bullet and go back to square one.
mc cain you bought a pig in a poke, and you are hanging on by the skin of your teeth, the handwriting is on the wall, you tried to make a silk purse of of a sow’s ear.
when you play with fire mr mc cain you will get burned. this is just the tip of the iceberg. so we are waiting for the other shoes to drop

I wonder what Bush would be ‘speaking’ about. Could it be about his ‘achievements’ during the Katrina? Or is it about his ‘mission accomplished’ in Iraq and the war he started based on his imaginary “yellow cake”?
Whatever Bush says, no one (those with a working brain) would or should listen. The man believes in and practices LIES. That’s all the GOP is about and that’s all they have to stand on.
Can someone tell the Republicans that their days in history have been destroyed by Bush and Cheney?

I get a kick out of watching those robots (the deluded Republicans) cheers on the cue, every time Bush makes a fool out of himself – on live TV!
The only value I see of RNC now is entertainment value. But then again, it’s not funny any more. The RNC is now nothing more than a show put up by the Neo-cons, who virtually destroyed the integrity of a political party like a deadly VIRUS killing its host.

Rev. wright is baaaaaack and here is what he had to say:
The Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Barack Obama’s fiery ex-pastor, re-emerged yesterday with a crude reference about race and sex in the White House.
“This ordinary boy [Obama] just might be the first president in the history of the United States to have a black woman sleeping at 1600 Pennsylvania legally,” Wright said, referring to Michelle Obama, in a sermon at the Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church in Houston.

Maccain was relieved yesterday because Bush didn’t come to convention
OMG, Now Maccain will cry….

LOL! I know everyone is thrilled that Dubya’s coming to the rescue. Maybe he can provide a distraction the Palin scandals that keep falling out of the sky.
No wait, Palin was supposed to help McCain seem different than Bush, right?
What a mess!!! I can’t stop laughing….the GOP just doesn’t seem like a real party anymore.
Will Cheney attend as the Key Note Speaker? Or perhaps Scooter Lippy or “Good job” Brownie? LOL!!!!

As a foreigner, it boggles my mind the level the American people have been indoctrinated to believe that Muslims are out to destroy or kill Americans.

The Sarah Palin as vp is a mere sideshow to John McCain’s Trojan Horse to Barack’s
Obamacropolis!
The evangelicals are rallying behind him in battleground states, that will give him decisive victory come November!
By October,the October surprise is the return of soldiers by brigades in those states; marching in major streets in cities of major tv outlets! Can you imagine the emotional impact it will bring out to the viewers, their patriotism, and change of hearts to the President and to the new commander-in-chief John McCain?
Plus by late Mid October, well witness the massive bombing blitz of the Iran nuclear sites?
Guys, have fun with the remaining days of summer!

Rev Wright didn’t vote with Bush 95% of the time. That is, he didn’t do anything to hurt the people of this country. He just ran his mouth off a few times. Everyone I know has the same problem. Same goes with you if you are honest.

Imagine That, it sounds like you were more interested in finding a news outlet to feed you Pro-McCain BS than an outlet that was actually objective.

Is it just me, or are there others out there that absoultely CRINGE when they hear either George W or Sarah Palin speak? I’m not talking about what they say, I’m talking about their fingers-on-a-chalkboard voices. I have no problem with McCain and no problem with Obama. But to hear Sarah Palin speak is like (and though it probably sounds like a joke I sadly don’t mean it as one) listening to The Church Lady on some parody comedy show. And of course George W is like listening to a monkey. Heck, I’d rather listen to Ted Stevens talk than either George W or Palin. If this country wants to practice torture, all they have to do is tie someone to a chair and make them listen to an hour of either of these people’s voices…

Who blotched Katrina? Was it Bush, FEMA, State Government, Local Government? It is only fair to spread some of the blame around. Complete failure on all levels government is a more correct statement. It was not an individual’s fault, nor a particular political party’s fault, rather many people’s fault with different political views.

the repubs are just freaking out because dems are finally punching back. obama is making mccain look bad without resorting to mudslinging or attacked on patriotism. the conservative pundits and politicians need to stop acting like blushing brides and play the game they invented.
p.s. abc – you needs to moderate your comment section better so it actually pertains to posting.

Too bad I’ll miss that. I am sure they will replay it. Why would they let somebody who butcher’s the English language speak at the convention. His approval rating is non existent. They should put the Republican convention on the Comedy channel. Is he going to speak about his successes? That will take about 2 seconds.

Bush wants to try and heal the damage done by his Administration’s botched Katrina efforts… by going to Texas??? Still not comfortable around black folks? Heckuva job, Bushie…

You people on both sides are showing your true ignorance. Can’t you people stay on point without getting personal. If you don’t like either candidate then attack them on their position not on their race, if one of their children made a mistake because in both cases people don’t have much control over either situation.

Rev. Wright called Obama out on believing the same things that he believes but denied it for political gain.
No Rev. Jeremiah Wright in the White House!

Here is a good one remember when Obama’s mentor (Jeremiah Wright) said America was to blame for all of the people who died on Sept. 11.
Oh how great the nation will be when Obama wins and brings all of his life long friends into the WhiteHouse with him. I wonder what role Tony Rezko will have in his cabinet?

I can’t wait for the Rev. Wright ad to come out. Do you think it will have Wright spewing “No, no, no God D@mn America”
Then have Michelle Obama saying “For the first time I am proud of my country”?
You can’t willingly, for 20 years listen to such hate and not agree with what is being said.

Is the media responsible for the racist comments on its web sites? They sure act like kos is responsible for what random idiots post at his site.

It is tragic how racist and disrespectful a lot of you are who post to this blog.
It truly points to your character. You are people I wouldn’t want to know in real life.
It’s disgusting and is a definite indication of how far America has yet to go!
We need to clean up the minds and hearts of people in the USA before we try to tell other countries how to behave.
God Help America

ABC, where is your Pallin is a member of the Alaska Independence Party story?

now the fun starts love hearing all the hate racism and warmongering comeing from the evil empire is just what the country needs to see so they remember why they will vote democrat this fall. and bush is going to speak, great everytime he opens his mouth even more raesons coem out why we will vote for democrats by teh vast majority this fall.

Psa 26:4 I did not sit with liars, and I will not be found among hypocrites.
These so called evangelicals who are really political cronies hiding behind the cloth love the Republican Party more than they love God. They don’t have any family values. But we all know if that were Michelle Obama’s or Hillary Clinton’s pregnant teenage daughter Tony Perkins and others would be pointing a finger at them and saying what a poor example they are setting. They would be raking these mothers across the hotest of coals.
As a born again, bible-toting Christian, I’m offended by these hypocrites

Joe Biden said “if Barack grew up in our neighborhood like he did in Kansas being raised by his grandparents,”
When did Obama grow up in Kansas? When did Obama ever live in Kansas?

Hamburter stated that: Over a year the media sat on the story that Obama attended the WHITE HATE church for over 20 years. This would have changed the election in IOWA without a doubt. But less than a week for them to report a teenager got pregnant. This proves why they did not report the sex scandal that J Edwards had. The media is so far left they are sicking……Thanks for laying out the facts and the truth, which many DNC nominee supporters are too blind to see. Racism is not welcome in this country against any group. For the DNC presidential nominee to support this church for many years, is disturbing and shows he is not the leader we need. In addition, the DNC creates divisiveness in the campaign with his foaming at the mouth rhetoric, and now we see the DNC Operation Chaos inflicting violence on 80-year old RNC convention attendees. Our nation needs to elect a RNC majority now, after years of enduring the DNC majority and their filibuster tactics to erode progress.

Try and stick with the topic libs, I know it’s hard for you to do. You would rather try and bring down the most fantastic person on a ticket in 28 years.
Glad you watch and listen to the left wing media so much, how does that kool-aid taste? Bush is not the bad person you are told so many times.
Funny, now that Louisiana has a, dare I say it, Repug governor, the preparations for Gustav were superb and THIS TIME Bush did a fine job. He didn’t kill all those blacks on purpose like he did with Katrina.
Bush will go down as one of the greatest presidents ever – long after you libs are worm dust.
Palin/McCain 08

This is just one of many skeletons that will fall out of Palin’s closet. They will surely hear about trooper gate, lies about bridge to no where, calling Hillary Clinton a whiner, her own in-law criticism of her choice, and her love for Obama’s energy plan.

So the president with the worst approval ratings ever is speaking?
This just keeps getting better and better.

Seems like the Kerry/Edwards ticket was ahead in the polls too and we all know the results of that election. Now, where’s that crazy “uncle” Rev. Wright when you need him. Stop Obama the phony tax hiker who will tax us all into a depression in the name of his phony “CHANGE”!!!

Experience without Judgement = incompetence!
Obama ’08

hamburter = a racist. shld be barred from this blog.
mcc has shown true colors: Country last; no judgement. Can you imagine him dealing with a real crisis? Worse than bush.
Needs to be subject of a good consulting study by someone other than AEI.

I am sorry people. Ignorance will get you nowhere and obviously has trusting Bush the last two elections.
We live in a corporate dictatorship under these people. Under Republicans it is proven that the middle class shrinks and the rich and poor grow further apart. WAKE UP> the scare tactics of Karl Rove and Rush, sure work just like you all believed that Iraq was responsible for 9/11 – i hate to say that is just plain stupid and ignorant. As is believing the lies of the Karl Rove machine. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU NEVER WILL. AS LONG AS YOU KEEP SUPPLYING PEOPLE TO FIGHT IN IRAQ AND SUPPORTING 10 BILIION PER MONTH. What is the idiocy in saying Obama is going to take us into a depression when it is only propaganda that has denied we are already in one.
FOX NEWS come on , murdoch owned. Karl Rove a political analyst. He is the one with the Nixon club in high school, the one who attacked McCain when he was running against Bush in the Primaries, bringing up his wife’s mental problems. It is the Republicans that play dirty and bring LIES into it, write books with LIES and because there is a population of sheep out there that love to be afraid and are afraid already of anything different……believe all of it, some people love to hate. Some people think jesus carries a weapon.
Sorry to say but you are the people who will drive me out of this country not the politicians. The last two elections showed the ignorance of a very desperate white populace clinging to the glory days of racism and faded glory.
Hate me, I am sure you will but I pray to GOD, one that loves and one that does not force women who are raped to have babies and one that is inclusive and includes science and all of nature.
The devil comes in various disguises, check out Cheney,,,,

Repugnant Republicans you deserve Mr. Mac Goo and the sessionist.

Good for Bush! Go and represent, you are still the President of the United States, even if McCain thinks that he is. Show him who’s boss!
Some of these posts stink to high heaven, I’m leaving because it is too polluted here. ABC should establish some standards, and at least allow reasonable responses, and not some of the asinine and juvenile posts written here. If loving You (Obama) is wrong, I don’t want to be Wright. If being Wright means being without you, I’ll rather be wrong doing wright.

If Bush announces war with Iran at the convention, I will crap myself.

I am a republican, life-long for that matter.
I am deeply embarrased by the way McCain made this VP choice.
A woman he met once for 15 minutes at a govenors meeting just before offering her the VP slot. A woman he now calls his partner and soulmate. This is getting weirder by the day, reminds me of Bush and Putin. McCain I am a woman and cannot vote for you.Your behavior is reckless and your judgement in doubt. I will have to vote for the Democrat this year I watched both of them on 60 minutes last sunday and I liked what I saw and heard. In your first real test of what you would do as president, you failed.

Wow, I’ll be tuning in to see dumbass speak tonight. I’m always so excited to hear our PResient stutter as if English is his second language, oh ya, hick was his first. Hard to grow out of that. Atleast Bush knows the state of the economy, unlike MCCain.

Excellent post Davis,
The repubs are doing a raindance to take the focus off of that raggedy convention. Well, lets get on with it. I want to see cheney, bush, rove and ALL of the republican clowns SURROUNDING McSame.
This campaign is turning into a laughing stock.

MsKay, It sure is, everybody is laughing at the dumdocrats for nominating a nobody racist socialist red, that reads well and sides with terrorist, local and abroad. Just poll all 57 states to get his latest numbers, all 57 Islamic states support him..

There sure are a lot of old caucasian people in the republican party. I guess they gave up on diversity after the 2000 election. It almost looks like the 1980 convention all over again. What a shame.

Is Bush going to bring LIPLOCK LAURA with him to the RNC???

Sarah Palen has more executive experiance than Obama and Biden combined. She has run a 10 billion dollar state with 24 thousand workers and she did that for 2 yrs- thats two yrs longer than obama or biden have done.
All of her experience is executive. Obama has none of this- it is really twisted logic for BO to try to say what he has done on the camp. trail is equal to running a state or a county or a town of any size. He didnt run his camp. he had someone do it for him- that doesnt equate with giving the orders to make something important happen. Hell he doesnt even write his own speeches, he can hardly talk without a telepromter.
this statement from a website – “By the way as I remember listening to Senator Obama give his acceptance speech.
It is stunning. It is audacious. It lifts word-for-word and paragraph-by-paragraph from Senator Clinton’s stump speech, well actually a number of them. When Senator Clinton is not being quoted directly (without attribution), almost every idea Senator Clinton advanced during her campaign.
It would be one thing if Senator Obama had been quoting Senator Clinton with attribution and using her ideas throughout the primary season. Then, this speech would not be stunningly breathtakingly audacious. It would be a speech given by the person who would have been the better person to run against John McCain, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton; possibly it would have been given by Senator Clinton’s running mate, who might have been Senator Obama. And it would have been a speech that would have been not only inspiring but more importantly credible.”

I just can’t read anymore of this foolishness.
After what our country has been through the past 8 years, how can an American vote to put the smae thing in office again? It just makes no sense. It is time for change. the republican president did absolutely nothing for me …it’s been a true american disater.Vote Democrat!!!

I think Nov 4th John McCain will be the first man to cast his vote to Mr Obama, now Mr John McCain himself knows that he has fail and that the best choice for the job in White House should be Obama and Biden combined, i am so happy that Mr McCain and Sarah Palen has know this truth that they are not qulify to lead great and special people of America. Thank God for Obama and Biden. VOTE them for progress and greater American value. or vote John McCain and Sarah Palen so that all our daughter could do is to go into prostution in some even poor country just to make living. save america, love american VOTE wisely VOTE OBAMA/ BIDEN.
