Democratic National Convention 2016

What a fuckboy. We get it Tim, you can speak Spanish.

Yup. It made me want to shoot the tv.

[soap]

Well the good news is they remembered what country they are in and put some American flags on the stage.

Wait this is for US President? I swear I thought it was for the office of president of Mexico. With every speaker speaking Spanish it's confusing.

The Bernie delegates that haven't been booted are planning a sit in tonight. Expect a thousand or so people to sit there motionless for the entire thing.

Have you heard about the plan they have to eat a lot of beans, so they can stink up the place?

There's some really solid comedic potential there, but it's just escaping me this morning.

From what I hear mostly second hand in the news and in here, the political fucktardary (word?) going on\went on at BOTH of the conventions would be cause for concern in a stable, first world country.

Considering the 3 ring circus we tend to have these days, par for the course... lol

Note the dark area to their left, that's the Oregon delegation that was chanting "No More War" until they turned off their lights.

I guess the "fart in" was yesterday. Too bad they couldn't make it in, but I doubt it would've made a difference without megaphones held up to their fart holes.

Bernie Sanders supporters tried to make a stink at the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday by staging a “fart-in” — but officials smelled that something was up and denied them access.

Organizer Cheri Honkala, who is the national coordinator for the Poor People’s Economic Human Rights Campaign, was joined by no more than five people for the unique protest.

In preparation for the protest, Sanders’ convention delegates scarfed down beans and other fiber-filled foods before arriving at the convention hall.

They were intent on sending an olfactory message to Hillary Clinton and the Democratic P that couldn’t be ignored.

“We think in this country, people should have a right to elect whoever they want to in this country,” Honkala said, claiming she had been arrested the day before while handing out beans to die-hard Sanders supporters.

Throughout the aborted protest, Honkala and the rest of the gassed-up Hillary Haters were spotted sweating, biting their lips and letting ‘em rip.
‘I’m sweating, because I feel a big one coming! That’s why!’

- Organizer Cheri Honkala

“I’m sweating, because I feel a big one coming! That’s why!” Honkala said. “I should be wearing a diaper, but I’m not.”

While a “fart-in” may seem radical, it’s a form of protest that’s been tried before.

According to the online magazine Inverse, the disgusting demonstration was thought up by activist Saul Alinsky, who discussed the idea in length with Playboy in 1972.

“I’d call them absurd rather than juvenile,” he explained. “But isn’t much of life kind of a theater of the absurd? As far as being frivolous is concerned, I say if a tactic works, it’s not frivolous.”

"James kept telling the Bernie supporters, “At this point, what difference does it make?” whenever they asked him a question. They didn’t appreciate that."

So in case any of you actually watched last night and managed not to vomit there were a lot of interruptions with random Hillary chants. The Bernouts were yelling things like No More War, Stop the TPP and USA USA. Whenever they'd start the paid sit ins were instructed to try and drown them out.

Or my favorite part was when Bill dozed off on camera, Tim Kaine noticed and blocked the camera.

Was that in the middle of Hillary's speech? I saw one instance where he had his mouth wide open and just staring into space. Everyone got up to clap and he was a good second or so behind everyone else.
