Pelosi told fellow Democrats to skip the DNC Convention this year.
Run for your lives!
Stay home and campaign instead.
The Politico reported:
House minority leader Nancy Pelosi says that Democratic members should stay home and campaign in their districts rather than go to the party’s national convention in North Carolina.
“I’m not encouraging anyone to go to the convention, having nothing to do with anything except I think they should stay home, campaign in their districts, use their financial and political resources to help them win their election,” Pelosi said in an exclusive interview for POLITICO Live’s On Congress, a new weekly show to be streamed live on POLITICO’s website and broadcast on NewsChannel 8 on Wednesdays.
The California Democrat suggested that since Barack Obama is an incumbent, there is less of a need for Democrats to attend the convention.
“We nominated a president last time. We have an incumbent President of the United States. We’re very proud of him. There certainly will be enough people there to express that pride, but I’m not encouraging members to go to the convention no matter what the situation was, because they can be home. It’s campaign time. It’s the first week in September,” she said.
Uh-huh. Keep telling yourself that, Nancy.
Next, they’ll be jumping from buildings.

With Barack Obama doing his yes to lead us into learned helplessness, they should run.

I’m bringing the core quote forward, here:
“If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet. — Barack Obama, July 2012″

How am I supposed to raise American sons under purported leadership like this?
I want my sons to act like Americans, not serfs.

So we’ve reached the pathetic stage. We’ve gotten through denial and false confidence.
You will not hear about party affiliation this time around.
We are to believe these desperate dems are just independent minded, free thinkers?

It’s not surprising that the democRats are abandoning a sinking ship.
It’s a little more surprising that they’re this open about it.

Oh, that’s rich. Stay away, Bluedogs, so we can lay the planks. If you want to see them, just Google™ the Communist Manifesto. They’re the same. Nice.
stonedome commented:
“use their financial and political resources to help them win their election” …yes, thank your narcissist super fund-raising friend in the white house for not sending money to support party candidates. let’s see which candidates will have obama along side while campaigning in their district…only those who are safe, which are very few. the other reason is funding from unions, which comprise a substantial amount of contributions to local candidates. n carolina is a right to work state and the union is not happy.

Dear Mayor of Charlotte,
Remember when we said we would send Democrats to your city to help revitalize the North Carolina economy?
Well, drop dead.
Love,
Nancy

And that’s why I’m advising people to stay upwind of him, and away from the new (and improved!) Black Panther stadium. Pride. Uh huh.
P.S. It’s nice to see someone admitting that obama is the incumbent. If it wasn’t for this (and one or two pictures of him standing behind a podium) I’d have thought that he was the fresh challenger from Chicago/Hawaii/Kenya/Indeonesia/make me an offer.

Urging your own party members to stay home must mean more Marxist planks are going into the platform and she doesn’t want any opposition from people running on the platform. They need a Saturday midnite session to get this all done, to make the end around method consistent with the Affordable Eugenics act of 2010.
Gotta love those Marxists.
valerie commented:
What else is she doing? She’s telling the elected officials with responsibility to their constituents to stay away from the national convention of their own party, to be absent to the big policy-making discussion. They should just go away, work on serving her interests, and do nothing to influence what’s going on behind the curtain.
She doesn’t want elected Democrats and interested Democratic people from the local level to get together, and possibly try to influence the policies of the Democratic party at the national level. And if they fall for it, they will have learned another lesson in learned helplessness.
She is telling them that, if they disagree, it’s not their party, and national policy is not their to control, influence or even something on which they need to be heard.
The Democratic Party at the national level is all about learned helplessness.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learned_helplessness
The Democrats have been busy teaching black people and hispanics to act like East Germans, and now, after considerable success, they’ve started on their own elected officials and supporters at the national level.
We have a problem similar to the one the West Germans had with their Eastern cousins after the Berlin Wall came down.

Well, the Demodonks DO have an elected “leader” occupying the Oval Office. That “leader” seems to think the individual American entrepeneur can’t be a success without assistance from others, notably the Gub’mint.
He should know since he:
1. never worked a day in his life,
2. learned at the knee of some of the most flagrantly Communistic ‘mentors’,
3. got into school through the assistance of shadowy unknown Leftists
4. was chosen as Editor of the Harvard Legal Review without ever publishing even one review
5. was handed his first elected office through Chicago Way politics
6. given a job teaching Alinskyite dogman as “Constitutional Law”
7. bought his Chicage mansion with help from a convicted felon
8. saw housing projects in his Chicago district erected then demolished as unfit for human habitation
Seems there were LOTS of people assisting him.

Hahahahahahahaha,
They are starting to see the
TEAnami coming. Trust me
Folks this is going to be a
Historic loss for the
democrats.
Powder is dry
stuart commented:
It doesn’t matter if the Democrats insert Communist planks into their party platform.
If Obummer is re-elected we will get them anyway, via executive orders. He is not running for president, he wants to be dictator. If he wins another term who will stop him? The Republicans? Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
