As some of you may remember, I <a href=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/?p=8498\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">noted how the<\/a> Democrats had cut their convention from the usual 4 days down to 3 days. This was due to money problems. Democrats, being Democrats, spent all their money and ran out.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>There was also the problem of people actually showing up to give their enthusiastic support for \u201cThe One,\u201d \u201cDer Fubar.\u201d that SCoaMF Barack Hussein Obama, currently the President of the <span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\"><em>Beverly Country Club<\/em><\/span> United States of America. Probably due to the fact that no one is actually enthusiastic about this moron. Well, the other shoe has crashed into the floorboards. In a story in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-2198206\/Democrats-set-Obamas-big-speech-74-000-seater-outdoor-stadium-20-000-seater-indoor-arena.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Daily Mail<\/a>, the Democratic Party is moving from the 74,000 seat <span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\"><em>Bank of America<\/em><\/span> Panthers Stadium to the Time Warner Cable Arena which has a capacity of 20,000 seats. Here are some amusing details from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-2198206\/Democrats-set-Obamas-big-speech-74-000-seater-outdoor-stadium-20-000-seater-indoor-arena.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Daily Mail<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Democrats are poised to avoid the danger of President Barack Obama accepting his party\u2019s nomination before a partially-empty stadium by shifting his speech to an indoor arena and citing \u2018severe weather\u2019.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>According to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wunderground.com\/q\/zmw:28201.1.99999\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Weather Underground<\/a>, there is a chance of thunderstorms. A small chance. The real reason? Well it could have something to do with the \u201cEnthusiasm Gap\u201d between the Republican party and the Democrat Party.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The Obama campaign have been working desperately to ensure that the 74,000-seater Bank of America stadium in Charlotte would be filled.<\/p>\n<p>Buses for students from across North Carolina and even members of black churches in neighboring South Carolina have been arranged.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Next will be the homeless in shelters and the winos living under the bridges. Anyone still breathing is probably going to be dragged into the TWC Arena. (The dead may only participate in voting, not the actual convention. Another case of Progressive Liberal bigotry)<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Footage of rows of empty seats at the stadium ((No, that is the Bank of America Stadium)), home of the Carolina Panthers, as Obama speaks on Thursday night would be politically disastrous \u2013 an enduring image of the contrast between his campaign of \u2018hope\u2019 and \u2018change\u2019 in 2008 and his dour, negative struggle for re-election in 2012.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I disagree. It would be several things, but disastrous? It might be the Democrats way of honoring <a href=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/?p=9006\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Clint Eastwood\u2019s speech<\/a> last week. They could be showing that they have a sense of humor about Eastwood\u2019s speech to an empty chair. It certainly would be very amusing from my point of view. But then, there is this little issue of Liberals having no sense of humor at all.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Democratic convention sources have indicated that the \u2018contingency plan\u2019 is at an advanced stage and that a move to the stadium appears certain.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I bet moving those Greek Columns from the 2008 convention does take a lot of careful planning. After all, Styrofoam does have to be handled carefully ((<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-1050017\/Obama-God-Democrats-build-temple-Barack.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Obama God! Democrats build a temple for Barack<\/a>)).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Obama\u2019s crowds in 2008 were far bigger than in recent months. His largest audience has been 14,000 at a campaign kick-off rally at Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio in May.<\/p>\n<p>Some 13,000 people were at Obama&#8217;s rally at the University of Colorado in Boulder, Colorado on Sunday.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And that was the first indication that the Democrats had decided that an empty chair was more electable than Obama. They had something like 4000 of them at the Columbus rally back in May. Now this isn\u2019t the only issue that has cropped up. They also made a huge sand sculpture of Obama that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/Big-Government\/2012\/09\/02\/Obama-Sand-Sculpture-at-DNC-Damaged-by-Rains\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">was damaged by rain<\/a>. (I\u2019ve heard they also had a serious cat problem with it as well)<\/p>\n<p>Well, I have no doubt that these teensy weensy, really insignificant problems won\u2019t be all that disruptive. I\u2019m sure that call of \u201cALL ABOARD THE OBAMA EXPRESS\u201d will resound across the nation. In fact, I see that one of the minions of Emperor Misha I at the Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler has also noted these small issues.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Train-Wreck.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-8509\" title=\"Train Wreck\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Train-Wreck-300x229.jpg?resize=300%2C229\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"229\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Train-Wreck.jpg?resize=300%2C229&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Train-Wreck.jpg?resize=150%2C114&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Train-Wreck.jpg?resize=400%2C306&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Train-Wreck.jpg?w=750&amp;ssl=1 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Thatisall<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>~The Angry Webmaster~<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<span id=\"post-ratings-9034\" class=\"post-ratings\" data-nonce=\"b26e971b1f\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_9034_1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"1 Star\" title=\"1 Star\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(9034, 1, '1 Star');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(1, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_9034_2\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_off.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"2 Stars\" title=\"2 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(9034, 2, '2 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(1, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_9034_3\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_off.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"3 Stars\" title=\"3 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(9034, 3, '3 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(1, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_9034_4\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_off.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"4 Stars\" title=\"4 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(9034, 4, '4 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(1, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_9034_5\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_off.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"5 Stars\" title=\"5 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(9034, 5, '5 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(1, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/> (<strong>2<\/strong> votes, average: <strong>1.00<\/strong> out of 5)<br \/><span class=\"post-ratings-text\" id=\"ratings_9034_text\"><\/span><\/span><span id=\"post-ratings-9034-loading\" class=\"post-ratings-loading\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/loading.gif?resize=16%2C16&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" class=\"post-ratings-image\" \/>Loading...<\/span>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good day all.
