Sights and Sounds of Opening Day...
Setting aside the obvious Rove orchestrated Conk-smear scheme of planting disruptive Moonbats throughout Denver...

...although somewhat out of step with the RNC's platform, these dissenting celebrants were able to voice their concerns that the Democrat Party had fallen out of touch with the mainstream voice of America, seen here...

...I personally liked the pro-socialist protester in the Harley-Davidson tee...

...would
love to see that guy show up for a bike run with that sign...
Some Conks, however, didn't receive the Rovean brain wash transmission from RNC Headquarters and opted to speak the truth and counter the 'bats...

Peace, however, was ensured by the Bush Administration supported jackboots, in a demonstration sure to be studied by the Chinese on how to deal with protests WITHOUT resorting to governmental incarceration, torture, and murder of dissenters...
...but it was the sight of riot sticks and bundles of blue zip-tie riot cuffs shoved in the leg pouch of police, below, just feet away from a flock of wild Moonbats, that brought a tear of joy to my eye...
In keeping with the Conk scheme of disrupting, the Dem's mainstream event, the Denver City Council succeeded in blocking attendance of some of the Democrat's keynote leaders when the City Council passed and ordinance which in effect, banned their presence in the City of Denver...
DENVER BANS BUCKETS OF POOP AT DNC PROTESTS

DENVER -- The Denver City Council has passed an ordinance barring protesters from carrying buckets of feces during the Democratic National Convention.
Three protest groups say they've already promised not to toss, smear or spray feces, and they call the new ordinance insulting and excessive.
The council approved the ordinance 12-0 on Monday. It also bars protesters from possessing chains, locks or other materials they could use to create human barricades or cause other disruptions.
Members of Re-create 68, Unconventional Action and Tent State University say the ordinance is overkill because they have signed an agreement not to use excrement.
Despite all these obstacles, inside, the Convention went as planned.
The Democrats were able to highlight their message of "Experience Not Needed To Speak On Our Dais", when their daughter, precocious 7 year old Sasha (a name of Russian origin, meaning "Defending Men". Really! I don't make this stuff up...look it up if you don't believe me.)...
...took the microphone from her Mommy, interrupted her Presidential nominee Daddy, and began questioning him. Daddy, being a properly trained "Modern Man", checked his nuts at the door, stopped speaking and listened as the girls did the talking. Good Boy!

And Senator Obama, speaking just after a rousing tribute by his wife Michelle, who pledged that he would be "an extraordinary president," was hard pushed to get a word in edgeways as his irrepressible daughter stole the show.
"Which city are you in daddy?" she asked, as he tried to introduce a family from Kansas to the packed opening night of the Democratic Party's four-day political jamboree in Denver, Colorado.
Waving, and blowing kisses the two girls were completely unfazed by the thousands of people cheering and applauding all around them as they walked onto the stage to the strains of Stevie Wonder's Isn't She Lovely.
And asked how she thought her mom's speech had gone, Sasha confidently pronounced: "She did good."
"Look after mommy before I get there on Thursday," Senator Obama said, before waving goodbye to Sasha and her 10-year-old sister, Malia.
Thatta girl, Sasha. Make sure Mommy does what she's told, eats her vegetables, and goes to bed early. It's about time those elders learned their place in society.
But clearly, the highlight of the night was the appearance of Democrat icon and patriarch Senator Edward Kennedy (Secret Service Codename: "Sunburn"...again, check it if you don't believe me...)...
...looking healthy after his recent "not socialized medicine, but still government paid-for" tumor surgery done by one of the world's foremost cancer surgeons at Duke Medical Center in confederate territory (who, undoubtedly is a whole-hearted supporter of socialized medicine

).
"Teddy's" appearance was preceded by a Ken Burns produced docu-profile of the Senator, complete with actual footage of Teddy's boat cutting through the waters near his home, wind in his hair, seabreeze in his face...
...as a Morgan Freeman like voice talked about Teddy's love in, er, I mean "for" the water...
...his epic battles against the oppressors who try to drown out the voices of America's women...

...and his empathy for the underprivileged, drawn from his own personal life experience...

...Kennedy earned C grades at the private Milton Academy, but was admitted to Harvard as a "legacy" -- his father and older brothers had attended there, so the younger and dimmer Kennedy's admission was virtually assured. While attending, he was expelled twice, once for cheating on a test, and once for paying a classmate to cheat for him. [Note: Biden cheats, and Kennedy too? So THAT'S the qualification to become a leader in the Democrat Party...who'd a thunk?] While expelled, Kennedy enlisted in the Army, but mistakenly signed up for four years instead of two. His father, Joseph P. Kennedy, former U.S. Ambassador to England, pulled the necessary strings to have his enlistment shortened to two years, and to ensure that he served in Europe, not Korea, where a war was raging. Kennedy was assigned to Paris, never advanced beyond the rank of Private, and returned to Harvard upon being discharged...
...In a late-1980s media profile, Kennedy was succinctly described as someone who "grew to manhood without learning to be an adult". He is rumored to have had several affairs while married to his first wife, and had often been seen in public while thoroughly tanked and/or behaving obnoxiously. In 1987 he was caught in flagrante delicto with an unidentified woman on the floor of a restaurant...
A fitting tribute for the cornerstone of American liberalism, and Patriarch of the Democrat Party.
What wonders will day number two bring...?
