The mighty leader, Mitt Romney, just one day before his triumphant convention speech that will launch him into the Presidency (not).

BONUS: VIDEO of the completely not-awkward, not-staged, not-a-bad-idea event!

By the way, six of Romney’s 18 grandkids, including presumably some of those here, were the product of in vitro fertilization, which Ryan tried to outlaw in 2011, co-sponsoring that bill along with gynecological expert Todd Akin.

Actual quote from a sitting United States Senator. Of course he is completely correct; the jig is up.

“The demographics race we’re losing badly,” said Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (S.C.). “We’re not generating enough angry white guys to stay in business for the long term.”

Also, Ryan’s convention speech was a pack of lies, the mainstream media reports. Even Fox News said it was an “attempt to set the world record for the greatest number of blatant lies.”

I’m surprised CNN let her say anything.

Carroll, 34, said that as an Alabama native, she was not surprised. “This is Florida, and I’m from the Deep South,” she said. “You come to places like this, you can count the black people on your hand. They see us doing things they don’t think I should do.”
Carroll noted of the Republican convention, “There are not that many black women there.”[…]

Of its own African-American camerawoman, harassed by unidentified attendees of the GOP convention. It was originally described by David Shuster via twitter:

GOP attendee ejected for throwing nuts at African American CNN camera woman + saying “This is how we feed animals.”

CNN later confirmed to talkingpointsmemo.com, which is doing the best reporting so far on this incident, that this happened and that two people were ejected. No one will identify them. There is a very long and grand tradition of the media reporting on the activities of miscreants and fanatics at political conventions. CNN’s behavior, by not pursuing this story, is disgraceful. If they don’t right this within the next twelve hours, by at least reporting the incident occurred, it is safe to presume they are completely and totally useless, an anti-journalistic organization.

You see, the attendance was “mandatory” but not “forced,” according to the employers. They had very little choice and lost pay in the process, since the mine would have otherwise been open and was shut down for the rally. These workers were forced by their employer to be used as props with no pay at a political rally for a candidate who has no problem with causing that situation.
