Audacity of Truth
Whiner-in-Chief:
"[W]hether the grumbling is about Republicans on Fox or bloggers in pajamas, there's a word for what the president and his aides are doing. That word is "whining." And nothing [...] does more damage to Obama's credibility or authority than the sense that a popular president is becoming the whiner-in-chief."

Caption This: Democratic National Convention edition
Lynn Sweet has posted some good pix she took of what things look like so far at the Pepsi Center, home to the 2008 Democratic National Convention. One in particular struck my eye:
Greg Pollowitz’s caption:
“We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him”
That sounds about right.
I’m not even sure if Obama will be appearing at the DNC, considering he’ll be making his acceptance speech at Invesco Field, but even if he won’t be in attendance at the Pepsi Center (where anti-war protesters are already on the march), judging by the background in that picture I have no doubt he’ll be with the conventioneers in “spirit.” (groan)
As for the captions, I now turn that over to you. Take it away, ya’ll!

Don’t you mean anti-American protesters? I mean, I don’t recall seeing any of these people protesting in front of the Russian embassy for it’s attack on Georgia. If they were truly anti-war protesters they would have been outside the embassy for days now, but alas, apparently Russian aggression is acceptable to them.
Caption:
“Don’t forget the Wise Men and the manger scene!”
“Say what you will about Andrew Lloyd Webber, but nothing beats ‘Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat’ for sheer entertainment!”
Yeah, well, Steve – I am waiting for Sneery to weigh in on this. I don’t think I ever thunk a thought without approval from Sneery first.
Anthony, this is the Democrat convention. Where would they find three wise men?
Shhhhh, MD… I’ve been down in San Diego the past four weeks, and I have to admit I’m a bit worried about Sneery looking after my dogs while I’m gone. Even though his Dad promised me he’d keep an eye on the kid, that guy is one major league 15 year old loose cannon.
Seriously, I’m half afraid that when I get back I’ll find my house turned into an AIDS hospice for differently abled transgendered Native American children or something.
Now NC you should know better than this, after all Russia’s invasion of Georgia was all George Bush’s fault anyway. – Lorica

And now back to the scene of the Donny and Marie Christmas Special….
You know, Lorica, I believe Donny Osmond starred in a production of “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.”
And so the stage was set. Obamessiah’s minions awaited the Mothership in Denver.
There’s a great set of DNCC (and RNCC) links on USA Media Guide. They have links to the official sites, the protest sites, local Denver media coverage, where to watch them online, and links to blogs reporting from them.

“Our dear leader, Chairman Mao, ahhh, Barack, will speak shortly…”
Yes he did Steve.
This looks like the cover of a science-fiction book. The cover artist actually read the book and noticed that the action takes place on a planet that has been colonized by humans, and that the colonists are celebrating their first Christmas on their new home.
