What made you cringe the most about last night's RNC speeches?

Question

For me, it was definitely Rudy Giuliani's lisp. Man, if he won the Presidency I don't know I could go through 4 years of listening to that thing.

Or it would have been every time they showed Cindy McCain, that smug, pompous look on her face.

Or maybe it was the insulting mockery and laughter at Obama, with everyone making that "silly black man, what are you thinking" face.

What's funny is that the only people still scared of terrorism live in Jerkwater, Idaho. I live in Los Angeles. I work RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM LAX, literally, from my office window I watch planes take off all day, and I think the LAST thing in the world that is going to affect my decision on this election is terrorism. It's a played out topic!

But seriously, what's with that lisp, Rudy G????????? Straight up Tongue Terrorism!!!!

Answer 1

When Palin made the statement that "Obama only talks about Victory when he is talking about himself becoming President not when it comes to WINNING the WAR"

McCain/ Palin are more concerned with winning the war than actually bringing our troops home...According to McCain

"It will take 8 to 10 years to bring the troops home".. Are we willing to wait that long???

Obama in 08

Answer 2

All the lies.  I could not even finish watching the speeches I was so sick to my stomach from the lies and fabrications and embellishments.

Answer 3

When that little girl licked her hand and slathered spit all over that child's head.

Answer 4

They were to short!  I could have listen to them all night long.

Was the Sarh Palin great or what?

I am fired up!

Answer 5

What's the population of Jerkwater, Idaho. That's what's most offensive to me and others that live in small town America. The condescension by those not from middle America.

I don't agree with everything Rudy, Mike or Mitt said and suspect they in fact turned many away because of their sarcastic remarks....none of which had anything to do with Barack being a black man. You sound as sensitive as the rest of us that were upset with Michelle saying she was proud of America for the first time.

We're all guilty of it.

Answer 6

...the fact that is was an RNC..

Answer 7

NOTHING

Answer 8

I thought it was great. Palin's speech was fantastic. Loved it, love her.

You seem pretty insulting, disproportionately offended, and overly sensitive, not to mention a little delusional. That being the case, I don't see much point in responding to the bulk of your comments.

I will take a moment to point out one thing though.

You seem to think "terrorism" is a abstract concept brought up to help elections somehow. Perhaps you weren't aware that terrorism continues to be a very real threat. One that continues to affect nations around the world. In recent years several terrorist plots have been revealed and prevented that would have directly affected the US. It is fallacy of the highest regard to behave as though we are no longer at risk. It may seem as though the risk is minimal but that is only because we have been well protected.

I do hope that you take some time to see if you are not voting for exactly what you do not want. Look at actions, and recognize that words mean nothing, if they come from someone who has yet to follow up on a single thing he says.

Answer 9

didn't the same thing go one at last week's DNC ?????

I guess it's ok to do onto others but not onto you???

Answer 10

I don't like to hear the godfather speak either

what i hated was her parading her families choices out which is fine by me, whatever decisions they make concerning sending their children off to war,promoting abstinence and choosing to impregnate oneself in the middle age years while at the same time knowing if elected she will do everything in her power to see that other women's choices are taken away from them

Answer 11

What made me cringe was every time they made a stab or insult towards the Democratic side, they would say so with a smile or giant grin (Rudy especially).  If you're trying to convince us that you're serious, then please say so with sincerity not jokingly...this isn't a roast, this is a job interview

Answer 12

Cindy McCain. She is so creepy.

Answer 13

Don't be mad because we punked your party and your left wing loon attitude, just admit we kicked you *** and that is why you are trying to put it down and say it was a bad night. But what else would anyone expect from a kool aid eroded brain like yours. Be afraid..be very afraid,,your and your Party is fixing to get an *** whooping!

Answer 14

The fact that some people actually watched and thought "Hey, these guys are exactly who I want running the country!" is what made me cringe most.

Answer 15

Feels good to hate people for feeling good while hatin'.

Answer 16

Seeing the phoney-baloney "happy" Palin family when it is anything but with a mother who posed for nude photos and had an extra-marital affair with her husband's business partner.

Answer 17

You are the typical take everything for granted citizen. You live in LA? you see what the democrats are trying to do to your state with their budget and their tax increase solution yet you will still support them? while they spend that money towards illegals, free health care and free education while your kids get squat? and yo us till support democrats?

You life your life as if everything should be handed over to you by the state. you live your life free of everything until an earthquake happens and it send jolts through your spine because it is a grim reminder that you can be exposed at any time and there is nobody there for you. the phone lines go dead, the traffic goes crazy. and two days later the democrats tell you "just be prepared and buy a kit" yeah thank you very much.

Last night was a show of force. the Republicans showed that it is on, and that Obama and Biden can call Palin all they want fact is she DOES have more experience then they do and more values then they will ever have.

Palin showed the Democrat ticket that SHE is the one with balls.  

Answer 18

The fact that not one person mentioned the economy or any other important issues for that matter, h**l, even unimportant issues weren't mentioned, and despite that, the speeches were considered some of the best ever given, notably Palin's.

Answer 19

Why don't you hop on one of those planes say to Iran. Your kind of folk there.

Answer 20

They're going to reform "themselves" and save us from "Republican" policies that have hurt our country over the past eight years. Yeah right.

They've come out against the life-saving possibilities of stem cell research.

They don't even mention protecting equal pay for equal work.

They support huge tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% of Americans.

They've almost completely ignored the $10 billion we're spending every month in Iraq.

And they make zero exceptions for a woman's right to choose -- even in cases of rape, incest, or to protect the life of the mother.

Obama and Biden were very respectful of Palin in responding to questions about her daughter and ethic investigations.

She took the low road and got slimey. Talking about his roman columns going back to the movie set and shamefuly questioning Obama's movtivations to be president as a career move?

If that all sounds like more of the same, that's because it is.
