Half-baked candidates.

only fried brains....

Good God--this is not a sovereign nation anymore. It's an planned development with an HOA in charge.

Wouldn't the Carbon Footprint be even smaller if they had a virtual convention? Think of many much CO2 they will create all traveling to Colorado.

Will there be nap time after non fat milk and vegan cookies?

I always figured Barack Obama was part of the Rainbow Coalition.

BTW--where I come from, lard IS a food group!

I guess they will have to add a white border to the Soviet flag cakes.

Al Gore and flying remain on the unendangered species list though. That tells you the seriousness of these nonsensical efforts. Nannystaters doing what they always do - trying to limit personal choice.

Then again, getting rid of fatty foods might be the Al Gore rule taking effect; they're doing it to get Al to stop gorging himself. Before long, Gore might have to pay fuel surcharges for all his jetsetting ways because he's over the weight limits. /

Because they did soooooo well with the old patriotism.

Will there be nap time after non fat milk and vegan cookies?

Oh, what about the "milk is evil" contingent?

Heaven forbid Barbara Mikulski should put on some weight.

What will Bill Clinton eat at the convention?

We need a fried food stand outside the convention hall, with the cooking smells going into the air intake. It will drive the delegates nuts with hunger.

re: #11 mbruce

Oops.... I meant soy milk. My bad.

re: #10 Kragar (Proud to be Kafir)

I'm sure the "new" patriotism will include "happiness huts/re-education centers" for those of us who don't want to part with the old patriotism.

Dayam, wish I had a fried-twinkie cart to push around the perimeters of this crazy fest.

re: #12 DougTheWriter

Didn't Greenpeace drag her down to the beach and try to set her free?

Maybe if we said that Iran was developing deep-fat fryers, and not nukes, then the Dems would take action.

I bet if you could set up a fry stand outside the convention, you would clean up. I bet plenty of those lefties will be frying brain cells.

Well, there goes my big bio-diesel plan.

Because fascism is okay if its their fascism. And really, it's just for your own good (which you obviously need to have imposed upon you, plebeian).

As I am a capitalist, I think we should capitalize on this very silly situation and make it a money opportunity for us!

Here it is (don't steal my idea, I will be watching!): We could set up a sort of lemonade type stand right across the street and sell Fried EVERYTHING - chicken, fish, oreos, snickers bars, ice cream. We will make a bundle.

“It’s the new patriotism,” says Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper

Well, at least we know what they replaced winning in Iraq with...

If the GOP and McCain had any sense this would be the number one issue on the campaign besides oil. This is the Democrats. This is what they do. They want to control your life, because they know better. Just keep pushing that over and over.

What about bottle water, the latest fad is banning bottled water.

In promoting healthy eating habits, the Democratic guidelines say every meal should be nutritious and include “at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, purple/blue and white.”

“It’s the new patriotism,” says Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper, the driving force behind the greening of the Democratic convention.

Gaianism. Feh!

I think we all need to take up a collection $5.00 each and have someone who lives in Denver go to the nearest Kentucky Fried Chicken and see how many buckets of the good stuff we can get and then smuggle it in and see how of that fried gold we can set out...

I love the stuff and you know these hungover yahoos will too!

There will not be a sober one in the bunch and if they are sober it will only be because they are hungover and haven't got their fix yet...

Hell that is all these conventions are anyway is one big cocktail party and if they think they can have it without some grease each day they have more serious issues than being out of touch politically...lol

Given the choice, they'd deepfry Republicans instead.

When Obama said he wanted to punish the oil companies I didn't think he meant Crisco.

They are going to pay a sh!tload for the caters and all the delegates will ditch early so they can go to a real restaurant and eat real food.

I predict there will be a lot of carry-out and room-service orders.

Would be interesting to see the contents of the dumptsers at the end of the day --somehow I don't think they'd want the liability of giving the left-over food to the homeless.

They will have some irritable delegates in that convention hall. I guess that want to take all measures to ensure a successful Two-Minute Hate.

re: #39 buzzsawmonkey

No French fries or Freedom Fries.

But Freedom Rings, oh yes, sets you free!

I called this back in the early 90s when the health Nazis first started with the anti-smoking campaign. I knew that "unhealthy" foods would be next. And they called me mad at the university!

I was just up in Denver on business. That city seems to become more moonbatty with each visit.

Noticed an odd thing this time though. The gas prices seemed to be lower than they are here in Phoenix, which is unusual as Colorado gas taxes are higher than AZ's. There were quite a number of places where you could still find regular unleaded for well under $4.00 a gallon. Has Colorado placed it's gas taxes on hold or reduced them? Any of you Denver lizards know why this is so?

More guidance for those going to the convention in Denver, courtesy of the Colorado Department of Revenue:

Sales of Souvenir Merchandise related to 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado

It's expected vendors will be setting up temporary locations to sell merchandise during the 2008 Democratic National Convention (DNC), August 25-28. Anyone selling this type of souvenir merchandise in Colorado is required to have a Colorado sales tax license. You cannot sell merchandise unless you have a state sales tax license.

The sales tax rate to be charged on merchandise in Colorado depends on the city in which the sales are made. The total tax rate for each city in Colorado is different. The Pepsi Center, the site of the 2008 Democratic National Convention, is located in Denver. The total sales tax rate for general merchandise in Denver is 7.72 percent. However, 4.1 percent of the total is remitted to the State of Colorado Department of Revenue. The remaining 3.62 percent is remitted to the City and County of Denver Treasury Division. If you are planning on making sales in any other city, please check our Colorado Sales Tax Rates to find out what the total tax rate is in each city.

To obtain a State of Colorado sales tax license, complete the Colorado Business Registration (CR 0100 form). The sales tax license fee is $16 if purchased on or before June 30. From July 1 to December 31, the license fee is $12. Vendors must also pay a $50 deposit which will be refunded after $50 in state sales tax has been paid. Vendors should indicate the filing period will be seasonal and mark the months they anticipate making sales. On the registration form, please include the letters DNC in the business address.

In other words, make sure that the state gets its cut. Or else.

I hope he managed to find himself a highly fecund mate for that attempt. The latest that I read on that, a study seems to have shown that the later male offspring of women that are very fertile are more likely to be gay. It sort of explains why 'gay' has not been evolved out of humanity. It's a cross-purpose trait. The suggestion is that the same genes that make a female offspring very fertile may cause some of the later male offspring to be gay. (The later offspring, seems the earlier ones are not affected in the same way.)

For anyone who is not well versed in the health care machine, every time a service is billed, the information is culled into codes.

I have no illusions whatsoever, if they get enough power, this will be a reality.

If Aquafina is the option, I'm fine with tap water. (Aquafina is just filtered tap water, that's why it is one of the cheapest available. I can do the same much cheaper with a Brita jug) I really do prefer the spring water that I drink. San Diego tap water is crap.

Great example of how "freedom loving" those demonrats are. I know you should not generalize and not all Demonrats think like this (required disclaimer), but tell me, where the hell do they get off saying that fried food is banned? If the Dems get in it will be four years of them banning this and banning that. Their idea of freedom is allowing you the freedom to enjoy everything THEY say it is OK to enjoy.

Eff that.

Prediction: Obama loses in the biggest electoral college landslide since Edmund Muskie. But only loses popular vote by a few percentage points, which is actully very scary.

I just can't see how this can work, even if veggies are now patriotic.
Think about it, Micael Moore, Al Gore, Rosie O'Donnell etal.
Eating healthy? Uh uh.
There is an opportunity for a black market trade in high caloric treats to the Dems
God, I love when they offer the idiot proof statement.

re: #4 Kragar (Proud to be Kafir)

Wouldn't the Carbon Footprint be even smaller if they had a virtual convention? Think of many much CO2 they will create all traveling to Colorado.

Not to mention all of the CO2 that will be created AT the convention!

The idea of a junkfood tax mandated state-directed diet, with all food grown with union labor or from "fair trade" sources sold directly by the government is a real possibility.

This isn't your typical Democrat. This is the Obamessiah. Think bigger.

I was going to spinoff this article. Jammie already did.

To test whether celebratory balloons advertised as biodegradable actually will decompose, Ms. Robinson buried samples in a steaming compost heap. She hired an Official Carbon Adviser, who will measure the greenhouse-gas emissions of every placard, every plane trip, every appetizer prepared and every coffee cup tossed. The Democrats hope to pay penance for those emissions by investing in renewable energy projects.

Perhaps Ms. Robinson's most audacious goal is to reuse, recycle or compost at least 85% of all waste generated during the convention.

...But it's almost inevitable that principles, politics and profit will conflict. To wit: Coors Brewing Co., in Golden, Colo., will donate biofuel made from beer waste to power the convention's fleet of flex-fuel vehicles. A green star for the convention -- but it has rankled die-hard liberals, who boycotted Coors in the 1960s and '70s to protest hiring practices that they said discriminated against blacks, Latinos, women and gays. Heirs to the Coors fortune have long been active in conservative causes and Republican politics.

And let's not forget all the fuel they'll burn on their way to the convention.

Great News! (for the nearest Burger King!) A sharp reporter will monitor how much of this trendy "healthful" food gets thrown in the trash uneaten and report on the tremendous waste our social betters indulge in in the name of showing us how to live. That they couldn't stomach their own ideas when push came to shove is beside the point.

the Democratic guidelines say every meal should be nutritious and include “at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, purple/blue and white.”

Well, that's pretty awesome -- Jelly Bellies™ for everyone!

(I'm partial to the "juicy pear" Jelly Bellies -- they rock!)

Any bets on whether there'll be a Hemp Milk booth at the convention? (Friends, if you're unable to eat dairy products because of allergies, but find that traditional soy milk is much too pleasant-tasting and agreeable, then Hemp Milk may be just the solution you've been looking for!)

re: #17 mbruce

Dayam, wish I had a fried-twinkie cart to push around the perimeters of this crazy fest.

Don't forgt the fried Oreo's! or the Fried Pickles!

VANCOUVER, British Columbia (Reuters) - Civic leader Scott Nelson says he is as worried as anyone about global warming, but that does not make him happy to be one of the first North Americans to pay a carbon tax to curb climate change.

Nelson, mayor of Williams Lake, British Columbia, says record high energy prices mean that the levy, for all its good intentions, could not come at a worst time for residents in his community, a lumber and ranching town about 525 km (340 miles) north of Vancouver.

SNIP

The provincial government unveiled the tax in February, calling it a key element in a pledge to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 33 percent by 2020.

The tax applies to nearly all fossil fuels, including gasoline and home heating fuel, starting at C$10 per tonne of carbon emissions in 2008 and increasing by C$5 a tonne annually for the next four years.

For drivers that will mean an additional 2.41 Canadian cents on a liter of gasoline (about 9.13 cents per U.S. gallon) starting on Tuesday. The current gas price in Vancouver, British Columbia's biggest city, is around C$1.40 a liter.

SNIP

It's real simple, I suppose.

New Patriotism = New Coke...and we who lived through the 80's know how well that worked.

Thats a fact. Most of the truly odd people that I have met in California migrated from somewhere else.

This, once again, is taking responsibility away from people, and it's grossly insulting. If I'm on a trip and want to enjoy a special treat, I will; it's up to be to balance my diet before and after.

Ah, I found out one thing that the Dhimwitcrats stand for; "Fear of Frying"

No donuts at the morning meetings. What will they serve instead, toast?

I have a feeling that obsessive compulsive disorder is more unhealthy than pigging-out now and then. LOL

The GOP should immediately take advantage of this and announce that a large variety of food will be made available to conventioneers who will be allowed to make their own choices just as if they were choosing their very own healthcare plan.

I'm surprised they didn't require everything to be Raw Vegan.

Ban fried foods.
Ban free speech.
Ban guns.

Ban searching for oil in the US territories.
Ban nuclear weapons.
Ban nuclear power plants.
Ban coal fired power plants.

I was at the Red Sox game when John Effin' Kerry "threw" out the first pitch (into the dirt) on the eve of the DNC in 2004. Staffers were handing out Kerry signs to people walking in and around Yawkey Way and many people were throwing the signs into trash barrels. Word of this got around so then they had staffers digging them out of the trash barrels so nobody could take pictures.

Specialty organic and fresh foods tend to be very expensive. The conventioneers better bring along extra money.

re: #133 CyanSnowHawk

It sort of explains why 'gay' has not been evolved out of humanity. It's a cross-purpose trait. The suggestion is that the same genes that make a female offspring very fertile may cause some of the later male offspring to be gay.

Just continuing OT for a minute -- the scenario Cyan describes is not the only hypothesis that has been put forth to explain how a "gay gene" could survive without being driven out of the population by natural selection.

Whether any of these particular hypotheses about a possible "gay gene" hold water, the more general point, that non-beneficial genetic traits can sometimes piggyback on highly beneficial traits, is neither new nor controversial in evolutionary biology.

Thus, anyone who claims that a "gay gene" would be totally impossible in evolutionary terms needs to take an undergraduate biology course.
