New Zombie report! Cool

NOBAMA!

HALLELUJAH! OBAMESSIAH DRAWS NEAR!

$80?! And this is from the party for the working man?

Keep up the great work Zombie !

Just got in from a tiring day at work and read Zombie's reports. They are just what the doctor ordered to make me smile. Tonight: cold beer as I wait for the rapture the Messiah will surely promise.

re: #4 Sharmuta

$80?! And this is from the party for the working man?

On FoxNews earlier, one of their reporters said that they were told they needed to pay $2000 to park 8 vehicles in a lot. She said the price started at $50 per vehicle, then went up to $100 per, and finally the guy told them it would be $2000 for the 8 vehicles, and so she and entourage left and set up shop somewhere else.

There a few and far between city sponsored parking in that area. I suspect that those prices are being charged by the private lots, owned by good capitalist.

I don't think there is any way that either campaign could ditate the parking prices.

If he gets elected and has the EPIC FAIL his empty suit of a soul is apt to have; I really wonder if the AA community might reconsider their political leanings. It is a tragedy that Johnson was able to buy off the AA community with 'the great society''s welfare policies. Taking the AA from a path of self reliance and liberty granted by Republicans, to one of utter dependence and political slavery under the near monolithic Democratic voting block, has been one of the biggest betrayals in history.

Ever attend a concert in a stadium? Sounds like hell. The vocals are usually garbled and somewhat delayed.

With just Obambi speaking... magnify the garbling and the delay a bunch. I guarantee that his worshippers won't understand a word that is said in that stadium.

Not that it matters to them.

I am also adding "Folks" because I've heard it so frequently

Ha, that touches a nerve, doesn't it? We should continue to point out that MLK was a Republican. Who can have a problem with the truth? The truth will win. I love this woman:

"I absolutely do not regret the ads," said Rice, 62, a native of Atlanta, King's hometown. He "absolutely was a Republican," she insisted. "We were all Republicans in those days. The Democrats were training fire hoses on us, siccing dogs on us."

Good for her. Stand up, Ms. Rice.

re: #58 Walter L. Newton

Then we can add this to the list of consequences the obama people didn't see coming- what a fiasco. Imagine the seniors choosing between parking to see the messiah or their medicine. obama still has a lot of money at his disposal- he could have found a way to provide affordable parking. Hell- he's offering up affordable [fill in the blank] on everything else, so why not?

Consistency, from Obama. He would reply, with his I-just-ate-bad-sushi smirk, "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds."

re: #61 Sharmuta

As if the messiah doesn't have the money or influence to help the little people.

Suppose you owned one of the ramps, knowing the elite of the DNC will want to park as close to the stadium as possible, to avoid walking or commuting with the great unwashed.

Obama's team comes to you and says, "We know your price point is $80 for these spaces. How about if you charge just $20 and we'll make good on the rest?" Would you wait for a politician's team to settle up, days, weeks or even months later, or would you enjoy dumping all that money in the bank the next day?

re: #102 rawmuse

Not ironic at all. It's called appropriation. The Left is fixated on symbols and representation. Anything they can take over, invest with their alternative meaning, and thereby pervert, is fair game. That is a tactic of supremacists.

The Lincoln Memorial is a perfect example. Do you think Obama has anything whatsoever to do with Lincoln, on principle? Absolutely nothing. Lincoln and all that he stood for is a threat to Obama's supremacism. The old Lincoln must die, symbolically, so that the New Lincoln (Obama) can live.

Do you see?

That's my point. We constently support captialism, and now suddenly we are ragging on a the private parking lot owners becuase they are trying to get their slice of the convention pie.

The same thing happens on Bronco game days. Even private home owners on the side streets near the stadium will put a sign out on thier front lawns and offer parking on thier lawns or driveways.

re: #133 Walter L. Newton

They just want to give the Dems a good reaming on parking to try and cover what the Dems will ream them on in taxes if Obamahdi gets elected.

Almighty Zeus's podium will ascend from the stage and the one will bless the crowds with his words and everyone who listens will marvel at the depth of his knowledge. In the background will be a facsimile of the Acropolis even though we are told that it is supposed to resemble the Lincoln Memorial ...odd since Lincoln was a republican. I believe there will be a replica of the fuselage of Airforce One...oh the arrogance of it all...

So far the Democratic convention has been an exercise in single pointedness...they are convinced that they are running against George W. Bush. Their efforts to make John McCain out to be the same as Bush could end up backfiring as all that has to happen at the Republican convention is for the McCain camp to make the case that McCain is a maverick and that when you get by all the unanimous votes (where both McCain, Obama agree which is about 85% of the votes taken in the Senate) of taking short breaks, adjournments, renaming post offices and congratulating sports teams...McCain has opposed Bush numerous times. This would have the effect of rendering the entire democratic convention moot.

This whole let's take a page from John Kennedy isn't going to play well. A parody of words comes to mind here: "we saw John F. Kennedy, We knew JFK and you Senator Obama are no John F. Kennedy"

re: #25 Sharmuta

Seriously- $80 for parking?! That is insane. Party for the working man my ass. And they think republicans are rich elitists- I guarantee McCain would not charge $80 for parking to see him speak in the Twin Cities. What a bunch of hypocrites. That's just appalling.

I used to work in parking. Trying to get a couple of bucks from some people is a major operation.

re: #146 Russkilitlover

I can't get as giddy about the adulation that many seem to have. I think this is a bad portent. The BHO machine has some sort of hold on all of these folks. This is a huge enterprise, in Denver tonight. I don't like all this keening and blind submission. It does not speak well for critical thinking or from voting folks from objectively weighing the future leader of our country. This is mass hysteria. And mass hysteria is infectious.

Not. Liking. This. Cult. Activity. At. All.

This is America. On the whole, we ain't puttin' up with this shit. Mockery of such shall prevail. Get on a pedestal in America and we shall surely knock you down.

re: #162 Racer X

Affordable [fill in the blank] for all- except coming to see the messiah. That'll cost you.

Reading excerpts from his speec, he is such an ass. Trying to link McCain to Bush...90% of the time he voted with Bush! Um, Senator, how many times have you voted present? Karl Rove had a great article on this today that a majority of those votes are not even debated.

He also talks about lowering the capital gains tax now...hmmm...I though you said you were gonna increas it Barry to be fair. And, let me remind you, the economy has slowed during the past year and a half...prior to that...take a look, pretty strong jackass. The economy has slowed because of the housing market. How exactly is that Bush's fault and not Congress with their freaking community redevelopment act that forced lenders to lend to unqualified people...God, I am getting so freaking pissed.

That's my point. We constently support captialism, and now suddenly we are ragging on a the private parking lot owners becuase they are trying to get their slice of the convention pie.

The same thing happens on Bronco game days. Even private home owners on the side streets near the stadium will put a sign out on thier front lawns and offer parking on thier lawns or driveways.

Amen. Went down to the Texas State Fair several years ago. Parked in some homeowner's homebrew parking lot. More power to him.

re: #130 godfrey

Not ironic at all. It's called appropriation. The Left is fixated on symbols and representation. Anything they can take over, invest with their alternative meaning, and thereby pervert, is fair game. That is a tactic of supremacists.

The Lincoln Memorial is a perfect example. Do you think Obama has anything whatsoever to do with Lincoln, on principle? Absolutely nothing. Lincoln and all that he stood for is a threat to Obama's supremacism. The old Lincoln must die, symbolically, so that the New Lincoln (Obama) can live.

Do you see?

Good analysis. Obama doesn't have an original thought in his head. He does nothing but copy other people's ideas including this stadium appearance.

Obama was taking a page from the campaign book of John Kennedy in 1960 when the future president delivered his acceptance speech to 80,000 people in the Los Angeles Coliseum.

Wow.

I completely agree with you. Obama has always been about the ultimate triumph of style over substance.

Regarding the meltdowns... these people are teaching in our childrens schools, holding public office locally, running businesses... scary, isn't it?

I wouldnt be surprised if Fred fwelps or one of his gurus is into faggery. It is not uncommen for Bible fumping hell-fire and brimstone preachers to be "into" the very sin they are all so fired up about.

We had a guy down here that preached on moral values and entered NZ Parliament on that very ticket. Turned out he had been fiddling a close friends daughter and took her virginity when she was 12! Off to the slammer for you, sunshine.

I was looking over an advance copy of Obama's speech and found this:

“We meet at one of those defining moments – a moment when our nation is at war, our economy is in turmoil, and the American promise has been threatened once more."

Never mind the economy GREW a rate of 3.3% last quarter,I have a question:

What IS the "American PROMISE" anyway?

Now I can see someone with an entitlement mentality THINKING that America should promise them a living...and food...and health care...and whatever. But I just never heard any normal person comment on the belief that this country should promise anyone anything.

If I know America, it will send Obama packing in November.

America has no place for Overlords. We don't "do" Overlords, no matter how much they try to appeal to our better angels.

Goodness comes from us, not from the Government.

re: #124 opnion

Hahahahaha.

I agree the $80 or more parking charge is ridiculous. One would think there would be free shuttles at the very least.

Anyone from Denver know what the usual parking fee is for that lot? It certainly can't be $80 per car which means they jacked it up just for this event.

I think Obama is styling this using an old-time gospel revival as the template. People swaying in rapture in the audience. It seems like a large part of the African-American population of Denver is in attendance.

There's one younger white guy I saw in the crowd wearing an Obama shirt, who looked like he was thinking "Why am i here?"

When people leave tonight, I think the attempt is to make many of them think that thay have found The Way.

Very Obama.

Anyone from Denver know what the usual parking fee is for that lot? It certainly can't be $80 per car which means they jacked it up just for this event.

Usual parking is 15 dollars in the city lots around the stadium and ballpark.

But these lots at 80 dollars are PRIVATE LOTS, and I see nothing wrong with them getting what they can.

Isn't that what we are always preaching about, the Amercian Dream, capitalism.

re: #58 Walter L. Newton

There a few and far between city sponsored parking in that area. I suspect that those prices are being charged by the private lots, owned by good capitalist.

I don't think there is any way that either campaign could ditate the parking prices.

If I owned a lot there, I'd be charging big bucks as well. But I would bring in lights, provide security and escorts to your vehicle after the event.

My response to the Obamaniacs:

YOU BOWED DOWN
Roger McGuinn, 1990

I suppose you're entitled to know
Why I'm making contact
With acqaintances scattered
All over the land
I'd promise you now and again
That I'd honor the contract
If it hadn't crumbled away in my hand
Well we broke that vow independently now
But I don't know why you absolutely deny

You bowed down
You bowed down

When you first looked away
I might say it was really a kindness
I must have hurt to see how dreams sour
Now they say that justice and love
Are the next things to blindness
Well you're getting plenty
Of both of them now
And so you parade where
Appointments are made
And never meant to be kept
Unless you accept

You'll value the burnt amber of falling leaves
And you'll long to delay
You feel their breath as they whisper
It won't hurt you now to betray
If you just bow down

And now every time that we meet
On the edge of hysteria
You're helping them sell off
Some new party line
I remember a time when you
Would have seemed so superior
Now you say "will you please
Meet this good friend of mine"
So you're in demand as long
As you kiss their hand
But all the applause
Is for their name not yours

I just keep seeing that part in 'Caddyshack' when that priest is shooting the game of his life, then botches a putt for the club record. He yells 'God Dammit!' and gets struck by lightning. Bill Murray, his caddy, proceeds to sneak away as if nothing happened. I just think something like that could happen to Obama for pretending he's God. Only this time there'd be 80,000 Bill Murrays sneaking out of Invesco.

Not to be pedantic but he says "Rat farts" before being struck by lightning.

re: #223 really grumpy big dog Johnson

Gospel revival... it would be an obvious choice, but then why use the very "Western" Greek revival architecture? Why not use an Oprah-style set? Or something still more homespun? If Obama's team was smart (they are not, really), they would've presented Obama more as a populist than an elitist. He could've won everything by being genuinely humble and self-effacing -- that is, if he actually had the brains to offset that pose, which he doesn't.

It's a mess. Obama's entire campaign is a weird, surreal mess.

re: #8 yochanan

Actually, I think that there are certain asshats on both sides of the political spectrum who secretly like having Phelps around:

Left-wingers who yearn to muzzle un-PC opinions can point to Phelps' overt nastiness and say, "See, this is why we need more Hate Crime legislation!"

And right-wingers who support a total ban on gays in the military (for instance) without really being able to articulate a case for such an extreme position can say, "Hey, it's not like I'm carrying around a God Hates Fags sign!"

Take it easy folks.
