This [1] self-important nitwittery is almost painful to watch. These people weren’t reading off of a teleprompter, but perhaps they should have been:
My favorite “declarations” were from the guy who said he was a Democrat because Democrats were the “party of civil rights” (newsflash [2]!), and the gal who said she was a Democrat because she believes more women should be involved in politics and that the best vehicle for that was the Democrat party (another newsflash [3]!). Then there was the guy who said he was a Democrat because America “is a democracy, not a theocracy” (and yet another newsflash [4]!).
That’s 2 minutes and 17 seconds of my life I will never get back. Sigh. The things I read and watch for my readers ….
Update – 6/28/11 – 6:31 PM: Unreal. The video apparently was removed by the College Democrats after much ridicule. I’ve replaced the original video link with a new one to the same video.
