Bizarrely, the Republican Party (the actual Party itself) recently began complaining that the stage for Sen. Obama’s speech looks like some kind of “Greek temple.” Many GOP fans have quickly followed suit with their own variations of faux outrage; as has their standard bearer (you decide whether their standard bearer is Sen. McCain or FOX).
Apparently the conservative partisans have too much time on their hands now that they’ve figured out solutions what’s wrong with the economy, health coverage, gas prices, Russia, the Taliban and more. Maybe they even figured out why bees keep dying and Dutch Elm Disease keeps spreading.
Wait. Their “solutions” are just rehashed versions of the same failed policies America’s been grappling with for the past 8 years?!
Dagnabbit. Foiled by the Chewbacca Defense again!
Of course, these complaints are actually about a half-built stage so the Republicans don’t even know what the final design will look like. Not that launching an attack despite not knowing all the facts has ever stopped any Republican.
Then again, it might end up looking like a church instead of a temple, and then they’ll be real mad.
Here’s a quarter for the clue bus: Republicans use stages for their talks too. It’s not as if Sen. McCain has never used columns as a backdrop anyway… let alone spoken from a TV set designed to look like a church pulpit during the 2004 GOP convo.
Y’all are clearly running away from the Epic. Failure. of conservative policies over the last 8 years. All you’ve got left are these silly namby-pamby whines.
Go ahead, keep whining about completely irrelevant malarkey. In the end it’ll only serve to highlight the fact that Obama’s the only one with workable solutions and the capacity to put them into action.
Coincidentally, today is also the 45th Anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream Speech” which was delivered in front of an audience of nearly 250,000 people… Dr. King was, of course, standing on the steps of a Greek Temple (in the Doric style, for those keeping tracking) the Lincoln Memorial while giving that inspirational talk.
If asked, candidate McCain may be unsure if any of his homes are designed in the style of a Greek temple; although at least one of his “modest” homes has a small fireplace or two or three or four and looks like a home fit for a Spanish conquistador, not some Greek-column resting Senator, which is clearly way more Republicanner than uppity Greek columns.
Curiously, one of the McCains’ dining room tables (the one in the Sedona mansion) is actually resting on Greek columns.
Whoddathunkit?

UPDATE: Really?
Are the McCainiacs really this afraid of talking about his woeful flip-floppy record and the failure of conservative policies over these past many years?
McCain’s campaign just took this “Freedom Fry” idiocy to new lows. It’s fitting that what their complaining about is an acceptance speech being held in a sports arena… This constant namby-pamby complaining about unimportant baloney has them looking like whiners on the juice.
