Contemplating gaffes unmade

The Republicans have canceled the Monday portion of their convention due to hurricane Isaac.

I mourn for the gaffes, the flubs, the racist and homophobic dog-whistles, the horribly-awkward "clarifications" on the tasteful topic of rape-induced pregnancy -- which will now go unspoken, unheard, un-laughed-at, un-gasped-at, because a full day of bloviation has been cut from this festival of right-wing-ness.

One can only hope that the Republicans will be in fine form for the remaining three days.  VP nominee Paul Ryan offers a little taste here just to keep our interest up (found via Immoral Minority).  In the meantime, have another video (found via Smartypants):

Excellent video there. I wish the MSM would give it as much air time and free replays as they gave the one where Howard Dean was trying to cheer his supporters with a whoop and the one where John Kerry was shown wind surfing, as though that was some kind of elitist pastime like, uh, dressage. But we know how that goes.

Along with gaffes unspoken in Tampa, I wish we could be privy to some of the comments and putting-in of orders uttered behind closed door during exclusive convention receptions for millionaire and billionaire "elite supporters" of Romney and Ryan.

("Hey, Romney, I want a commitment about bombing the sh-t out of Iran. I got it coming, you know what I mean? I want an invasion, too. I want Israel protected, plus I've got a lot invested in companies like Raytheon and Halliburton . . .")

Chit-chat like that.

Good one, Infidel. I stole it and linked to you.

BTW, does anyone know if Crazy Pat Robertson blamed the sinful GOOPers for gawd's wrath against Tampa Bay?

SWA: The video is from the Obama campaign, so it will get seen. It's more poking fun than a serious ad, though.

SK: Well, there's this. If the convention does suffer at all, it will probably be God's punishment on them for dissing Akin. There's always something.

Christian Broadcasting Network Wonders if Prayer Moved Storm Away From Tampa to Protect the RNC

And straight toward Republican Bobby Jindal's Republican state!

Gawd is hilarious isn't she?

She's still punishing the Republicans -- letting their convention go forward so they can say more dumb and disgusting things in front of the whole country.
