Admittedly, sometimes I get bored, and I have to entertain myself. The Democrat National Convention started last night, and I saw it as a perfect opportunity to burn off all the energy that Diet coke tends to provide. I know I said I wouldn’t cover the DNC, but I couldn’t help myself. I went Twitter-crazy. Here is the entire batch of comments (in no particular order) for your enjoyment. Note: Typos have been corrected for your reading pleasure.

4% of DNC delegates have disabilities? Is that what I saw? Boy, they lowballed that number didn’t they?
Jim Leach has a cartoon voice I can’t quite place.

Tom Harkin is speaking. Pee break!

The camera just went by Carville. I wonder how much it costs to park a spaceship at the Pepsi Center?

Why hasn’t Twitter crashed yet?

Oh Look, It’s Teresa H-Kerry. She should get together with Michelle Obama and have a B*tch-off.

Are there any good looking people at this convention? A lot of Uglo-Americans in the joint.

Reading Biden’s thoughts: “I am the most *awesome* person in this arena. I really am.”

If I had jowls like Teddy’s, I’d try to see how many M&M’s I could cram into those big boys.

@seanhackbarth: Now, now, Sean. What’s wrong with a little water (floor)boarding?

@seanhackbarth: This is just too much fun, dude.

Kennedy tribute centers around the sea. How fitting. …blurp…blurp…blurp.

Maria Shriver is looking stunningly Crypt Keeper-ish this evening.

No, Kennedy didn’t really “sail against the wind”, it’s just that cars don’t float.

David Gergen admits in a round-about way: “This is boring.”

Biden has an “I’m an election away from being a Shadow President” smile on his face. #dnc08 about 3 hours ago from digsby

I wonder if the tribute to Teddy Kennedy will include underwater footage?

I can’t come up with any Jesse Jackson jokes. Eh…why bother? That would be redundant.

“Barack ‘reached across the aisle’ to pass a tax cut.” - Hmm. what does that tell you?

Jimmy Carter just left the stage. He’s proof you can fail upward in America. about 3 hours ago from digsby
A closing prayer? What? Will everybody in the room sue themselves for a church and state violation, now? CALL THE ACLU!!

David Gergen sounds like The Undertaker.

Wow. Obama’s little girl couldn’t read “Kansas City” off GIANT screen. Public education, it’s for *YOU*.

“Crap.. don’t trip over the extension cord on the prompter!

I wonder when THOSE little girls got THEIR human rights?

Thank God she’s finished. I was starting to wish for universal cyanide.

are those flashbulbs, or just glints off Joe Biden’s teeth?

“Barack will protect your right to jam your baby down the garbage disposal! That’s what he will do as President! Vote for mah man!”

“That is why I love this country. I didn’t 2 months ago, but hell, who’s counting?” #

“You can make it if you try….and if you can’t, I’ll raise your neighbor’s taxes, and he can support you.”

“It was the greatest gift we could have received. Well, that and my first copy of ‘Mein Kampf’.”

Notice that she “came here as a sister”. Not an American. That would be too cliche!

Michelle thinks: “Look at all these fat, typical white people.”

“Go Beavers”? What a cheap ploy for applause. Everybody likes Beaver.

The youngest at the DNC is 17 yr old Gilbert Pederson. He pried himself out of his locker just to be there.

Random thought: Barack should take a good look at Michelle’s brother. In 20 years, that’s what he’ll be stuck with.

Did the Messiah just say he bought Michelle off with ice cream? Not very impressive..unless he created it from raw milk with a snap.

Ah. No commercials interrupting Lady Messiah. SHE TRANSCENDS THE NEED FOR REVENUE! BEHOLD!

Will Michelle walk out, or be carried out, prone, like Cleopatra? “Peel me a grape, serfs!”
