At the DNC, 100 ways to die becomes 100 ways to lie
Or more like 1000 ways. Or 10,000 ways. Or a million ways. The TV show of the same name doesn't do the concept justice where Democrats are concerned.
If you woke up this morning and breathed a sigh of relief that the four-day Democrat nightmare inducing horrific fib fest is finally over, you should be congratulating yourself. For you've set yourself to viewing and enduring the best that the Democrats had to throw at you and lived to tell it.
It's a good thing that hearing lies isn't a fatal disease, or all of us would be on life support this morning.
Democrats gathered for a final evening last night to serve out the final installment in the grand production designed to anoint Kamala Harris Democrat presidential nominee – and to unearth enough biographical tidbits in her background not named Willie Brown or Montel Williams to present her as palatable to an American public that's been conditioned over the course of four years to view her as an air-brain and de facto joke who everyone wished to hide.
And they (Democrats) did it all when originally anticipating that senile Joe would be the one accepting the party nod, not Kamala herself. The cackling Californian was slated for the Wednesday night slot – that eventually went to communist China-butt-covering Minnesotan Tim Walz, who did, like the rest of them, a passable job making Kamala Harris sound human and, for lack of a better way to phrase it, like a nice gal.
Since Kamala's done so few things in her political career worthy of much note, Democrats had to settle for talking about her personally, speaking of the step-mother in glowing terms while mentioning, over and over, that she would do her level best to protect their judge-given abortion rights. That's all Democrats seem to care about, so the fact that Kamala is a total idiot who can't do anything herself doesn't matter a lick as long as the woman can keep getting those babies sucked out of their mothers' wombs!
It became evident early on in the convention that Democrats planned to bypass anything that closely resembled an issue position, preferring instead to talk a lot about how "joyful" Kamala is and pretending as though her cackling laugh didn't mask serious deficiencies in most political years. Scrubbed clean were any references to "inflation" or "illegal immigration" or "economy" and, in their place, Democrats substituted "lowering prices" or "good paying union jobs" or, lots and lots and lots of "middle class", never defining what the terms meant.
It was four long days of one of the grandest snow jobs of all time. The convention delegates hooted and hollered and hugged and applauded for every moment, and here's guessing they are congratulating themselves this morning for how successfully they pulled it off.
Democrats also tried not to make their "diverse" convention look like a Lady Gaga freaks and weirdos concert, either. I don't recall any homosexuals hugging, kissing or visible transgenders flaunting their fake breasts or anything of the like during the week. There was plenty of freakish entertainment for the delegates to dance and wigwag to, but nothing outwardly off-putting to the lowest common denominator element.
In other words, Democrats LIED to us! LIE! LIE! And they did it convincingly, at least to the gullible and uninformed in the viewing audience. 100 ways to lie. Democrats found more than a million.
Make a joyful cackling noise. Then don't talk about policy. And smile a lot.
Let's be honest – Kamala at least looked good.
Harris took the stage and the TV commentators introduced her as "The first black woman and first Asian woman to run for president on a major party ticket" … I would've added, "The first woman without substance to stand before the nation in that capacity, completely unqualified, totally unprepared… and the nation shudders."
Remember how she called North Korea… South Korea? Are we really prepared for this?
She smiled broadly and basked in the adoration. Who wouldn't? Anyone remember how just a month ago there was almost as much urgency for Democrats to dump Kamala too?
"My memories of childhood were of a 'joyful' home…" Kamala's parents split up when she and her sister were in elementary school. I didn't know that. Then she described how the family struggled to make ends meet. That wasn't true. A lie! Her Indian heritage mother and Jamaican student father provided them the perfect background for their daughter to talk about how oppressed she was as a child living in a suburban college community!
In contrast, Donald Trump opened his speech a month ago with talking about how he'd just been shot a few days before. Kamala provided her background as though anyone would care about it.
"Every day I stood before a judge and announced, Kamala Harris for the people." Harris bragged about how she's only had one client her entire life – the people -- basically conceding she's been in public employ her entire career.
And this is the one we want to manage the vast private economy?
At that point, Kamala stared at the camera and promised she'd be a president who would lead for all ideologies and have common sense. I believe her! I believe she would do everything her conscience tells her to do, which opens the floor to pretty much everything! Ah, the heart of a liberal! If she wants to have open borders, for example, her conscience would allow her to ignore her job!
"I fought against the cartels that deal in guns and drugs and human beings," Kamala recalled. She has? But she didn't fight against those things coming across the border in the first place, did she?
"Donald Trump tried to throw away your vote," she explained. "Then he sent an armed mob to attack the capital." Is that how it happened? The mob wasn't armed, was it? She then warned of how Trump would jail journalists, political opponents and anyone sent against the government. And this is the woman who said she'd be president of all the people?
This was halfway through her oration, with plenty of "warnings" about Trump and the 2025 plan and not a shred of content. Lies. Lies. Lies.
"America, we are not going back… and we are charting a new way to the future." … "The middle class is where we come from." Her mother used to tell her. Nothing like a recently arrived immigrant to lecture on the American Dream and tell about how awful America really is!
When Kamala did mention policy, she began by reciting what Trump allegedly would do, you know, fight for himself and provide tax breaks for his supposedly wealthy donors. Notice she didn't say what she would do?
Confirming that abortion would be the cornerstone of hers and the Democrats' entire campaign, Kamala lowered her voice, suddenly her smile was gone and suggested that Trump appointed the Supreme Court justices who overturned Roe v. Wade. And then he bragged about it.
"He plans to pass a nationwide abortion ban with or without Congress," Kamala lied. And she also said Republicans would do away with birth control. Lie. Lie. Lie. Lie. Scaring the gullible and uninformed. How about some material about bailing the George Floyd rioters out of prison, Mrs. Harris?
But perhaps Kamala's biggest lie stemmed from her discussion of the border, where she said she'd combined "with Republicans" to put together the "strongest border bill in decades," a lie that keeps being tossed out there, largely unanswered by the Republican side. That was the STRONGEST bill? Up to 5000 illegal entries a day? Insanity!
Democrats use "democracy" as a nice-sounding word to deflect what they're really trying to accomplish, which is to allow their constituents to live the way they do – and regulate and censor and police and arrest and monitor and "suppress" everyone else to death. And tax. Can't forget that one.
Freedom and liberty have nothing to the Democrats' democracy. Being "joyful" has nothing to do with running the country. Donald Trump may have his flaws, but he'd be a much better president than the alternative. He's already been there. As for cackling Kamala? She can have her "joy" and keep it, too.
Summing it up
Some credit belongs to the Democrat organizers of their convention – and the legions of police outside the arena who kept the peace – for putting on a convention that came off pretty well considering most of the political talent the Democrats possess is either old or way past-prime.
Democrats set out to pass Kamala Harris as a viable candidate. Did they succeed? How much "joy" will Americans have on election day? We only have a little over two months to find out.
Democrats always go overboard. Here's thinking the backlash is coming. It will be fun to watch.
