A Tale of two Conventions

Last week we saw the Republican convention. Lots of uplifting speeches, all speaking of a vision for America, that hearkened back to her founding. personal freedom, personal responsibility, freedom to pursue your dreams. Many personal stories or individual success. As well ans many personal stories of the Nominee, Mitt Romney, and his personal generosity, and how he has personally helped those far less fortunate than himself. It was ironic, that the Liberal Doyenne of media MSNBC, cut away from EVERY minority speaker, but what can you expect from the media arm of the DNC?

Contrast that with the disorganized, leaderless mess that we are witnessing this week in Charlotte. The DNC opened to numerous spokespeople trying to deflect the perennial question of presidential politics, Are you better off now than 4 years ago? They appeared unprepared for this simple question. Moving one to the noticeable divide in the convention, prior to TV cameras(prior to 9pm) speakers engaged in Liberal red meat; Abortion on demand, God out of government, Forced unionism(card check), more government spending, more stimulus, more government. AFTER 9pm, NONE of that was there, it was rhetoric about class warfare, generalities of reduced debt, and deficits. Hollow promises of a better 4 years to come with more of the same ideas that have strangled the last four.

THEN the floor vote to re insert the word God, ONCE in the platform, as well as a declaration that Jerusalem is the capitol of Israel. The party ACTUALLY BOOED those two motions. THEN the party is forced to move Obama's acceptance speech from a 74,000 seat stadium to a 21,000 seat arena, because despite busing, and giving away tickets they were unable to fill the stadium.

Ladies and Gentlemen, THIS is you contrast for the next 4 years. More bumbling, disorganization, ineffectual promises, with no attempt to deliver upon them, or a written, steadfast plan that does not lie, or sugarcoat the problems we face? Straight, Adult talk about our Debt, Deficits, Saving Social Security, and Medicare, or inaction allowing these programs to die by their very own Mathematics?
