Let's Predict the Theme of the Democratic Convention

[InTheLight]

The Dems convention will be another denial and fantasy land fest where they will ask us to consider how we want to feel in the future, rather than how we feel now. They will focus on what we want our lives to be like in four years, not what they are like now. Be patient with our plan, it is starting to work and in four years all will be peaches and cream.

The economic plan will be a theme of class envy. The rich don't pay their fair share, they will say. If the Bush tax cuts would have expired we wouldn't be in this much of a deficit mess. He will again call for repealing the Bush tax cuts on the richest 2% of wage earners. (Never mind he could have jettisoned them anytime during his first 2 years in office with Dems controlling both chambers of the legislature.)

They will run through statistics of just how bad the economy was when Obama inherited it and urge patience and trust in their methods. Let's not go back to the failed policies that got us here in the first place, they will say. (Better to stick with their failed policies, apparently.)

I predict that Obama will come up with some sort of a new subsidy for college students, or some new program aimed at lessening the expense of college tuition.

He will tout his environmental record (BTW, anybody seen that anywhere? Ha!) and call for more green energy initiatives, government sponsored of course.

He will take credit for ending the Iraq war and killing bin Laden.

Anybody else want to chime in with some predictions?

The central theme will be along the lines of "We need your help to continue the crusade we started for American four years ago." Or maybe, "Let the government solve all of your problems and you too can talk like Biden."

 

[Revmitchell]

Obama did not inherit this economy, he asked for it, sought it out and compelled people to give it to him. Now he has it. Its all his.

 

[Mexdeaf]

Don't take these seriously, ok? I'm just being funny- or trying to be.

"Hopes unchained."

"You built it, but we'll tax it."

"America- land of the 50 per-centers."

"Let's give Joe four more years of speech therapy."

"Better days are Bush's fault."

 

[LadyEagle]

The theme will be "Kill Romney" so he can have 4 more years to achieve the goals he didn't meet in the first term (IOW, bankrupt and destroy the USA).

Romney already told us.

Hate and division.

 

[LadyEagle]

And to DIVIDE us by smearing mormonism, hoping that will turn the evangelical vote away. It's already in the process, told tonight on Huckabee's show. The big 3 networks have trash ads about mormonism ready to roll out.

The Top 10 reasons we need to blame Bush

One of their big platform agendas is going to be indorsement of gay marriage and LGBT friendly positions for all. It will be a freak show as usual with the libs. I would stay clear of the east coast for God may be loading up on fire and brimstone this week to hurl down at all the immorality on proud display.

 

[Alcott]

The theme will be: "To hell with the Word of God; it's abortions and queers forever"

Amen on the fire and brimstone. Same sex relationships and abortion have been around for centuries, no doubt about it. However, until recently, the activities were hid, kept in the closet, no pun intended. That is one thing. It is quite another for a nation to make those two areas the law of the land, and shout how proud we are of it from the mountain tops.

It is one thing to sin, be ashamed and attempt to hide it. It is quite another as a nation to shake our fist at the Lord and rub His nose in our sin and pride.
