1. No, I didn't

My boss and I went to go and the convention parking lot was filled,and so was 264. Neither one of us wanted to go to Camp Pendleton to ride a bus over to the convention center which was the only way to get in. I'm glad I didn't. I watched it on TV and it was sickening, Hank Williams Jr. singing his guns and country songs and the evangelicals loving every minute of it, I would of been sick. Seeing all the freepers lined up on the highway was creepy very creepy. I know I would of never been able to keep my mouth shut with all the lies being told. It is shameful and luckily I didn't cross paths with the morons.

Also I thought the line McCain used was despicable " Now we have them just where we want them", WTF? :mad: Oh and McPalin was talking about the bases here and called Oceana a Navy Air Force base. :rofl: dumb bitty.

2. I think you made the right call not going.
To make us feel better, did you see that video of Palin in Richmond where she admonished her OWN supporters? That was flippin' hilarious!

Still, I am depressed a bit by the behavior of attendees at the VB rally. How can people say that about someone, just because they are from the other political party? I really hope Obama wins this election handily, and Rovian politics loses permanently.
