Despite all the happy happy silly silly there is an undercurrent of seething irrational mean-spirited hate running through this convention like a main circuit cable plugged straight into Hillary Clinton.
To put forward the proposition that roughly one half of the population are to be treated like strangers in the land they were born is incomprehensible.
If you are a democrat and you are not deeply ashamed of this chaos, then you are a sociopath.
Bernie and his supporters were cuckold by their party. They got mad for a minute and then last night were shamed for being upset about being screwed over. Kind of like being raped and told to just lay back and enjoy it. Sarah Silverman insulted their intelligence and called them ridiculous. Al Franken told them it's not really that bad and told them a joke or two to make em laugh. Michelle 0bama just ignored the situation. Bernie told them to #$%$ and get with the program, get back on the plantation and embrace the rapist. After all the rapist is their father and they have to keep the family together And they want the country to support them. What a party!
I didn't see Sarah Silverman until this morning, but I liked that line. I only wish all the college presidents and deans had said that for the last several years to all these protesters on campuses. Instead of telling them they were acting like children, they caved to every demand including ruining long built careers of administrators over lies and accusations. It's about time someone told them they were being ridiculous.
Constant complaining about the bogeyman (Trump) constitutes inspiring and positive?
Compared to RNC, yes. RNC would not talk about anything else but Hillary, and every talking point was repeated by every speaker, while DNC talked about actual issues as well. Of course they spent some time ripping Trump too. It is to be expected.
RNC: Ripping Hillary 90%, other 10%
DNC: Ripping Trump 30%, other 70%
Sure......If the DNC can't do any better than to promote illegal aliens front and center, they are in a world of hurt and their numbers will go down. The vast majority of Americans are NOT pro illegal alien. Most Americans want immigration laws to be enforced. Nothing is a bigger negative than what we saw last night. The problem with progressives is they think they can brain wash people into feeling sorry for law breakers.
Immigration seemed to be the theme of the night. Like I said, I do not agree with Dem agenda, so I am just commenting on the mood of the convention.
Personally, I do not see Hillary winning. It was surprising they had so few candidates to begin with, while GOP had so many. Of course the most surprising thing was to see Trump win from all the other options. He deserves some credit for it.
Over 60 speeches were made Monday night at the Democratic National Convention, yet one key topic was MIA: the rise of ISIS.
National security is the key issue of this election. Without it, we have nothing. The promises are worthless.
I would assume different days have different themes, much like with the RNC had. Monday was heavy on immigration, unity, family and promoting US as whole. According to the commentators today will continue with same, plus fight against violence, which probably means gun control.

There was another terror attack in France, where a Norman priest was beheaded, and the DNC didn't even mention the threat of terror. Yes, they were so positive, but their heads are firmly planted in the sand.

Telling people to be afraid, and that the government is here to help might fire up certain people, but not everyone. There are many issues, and people prioritize them differently. I would assume the terror threat will be brought up in the remaining three days, but it it clear RNC is more into the fear tactics than the DNC.
I just read a blurb on facebook (with picture), that there are NO United States flags visible anywhere in the DNC venue. Can somebody who is watching this circus comment on this?
Yes, I am curious, but not enough to actually WATCH the buffoonery.
