Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made her entrance on the stage of the Democrat National Convention in Chicago to Sara Bareilles' song, "Brave," followed by a standing ovation and a ton of applause. Next to AOC's speech, this was the most energy exhibited at what has been a fairly lackluster Night 1 of the DNC.
Clinton noted the rise in energy.
Wow. There's a lot of energy in this room, just like there is across the country! Something, something is happening in America! You can feel it. Something we've worked for and dreamed of for a long time.
First, though, let's salute President Biden.

LOL. she said Joe brought decency back to the White House. ...wondering where Bill was walled off during her speech.
But of course, Joe is a pot calling a kettle black. His harangue was dreadful. I confess I could tolerate only enough when I'd turn the channel to see if he'd stopped shouting yet, then I'd turn back to a program where a criminologist was analyzing the traits exhibited by psychopaths...

Before she started to speak, she gazed over the crowd and for the umpteenth time, thought to herself, "what a bunch of useful idiots."

If Hillary had one ounce of humility she would realize that 95% of America is done with her. She is a malevolent woman who uses people. No one cares that she didn’t achieve the lofty position she aspired to, most women would rather get leprosy than vote for her and it is always a drag to see her. In 2015 a conservative reporter wrote of her suspicion that Hillary's campaign was laying the groundwork to ultimately use Sly Stone’s “Everday People” as their theme song (they called their transport van “Scooby” and Hillary began to continuously refer to “everyday people” in her speeches). Today, if Mrs. Clinton wants a theme song containing a flavor of what American womanhood thinks of her, she should hum “Positively 4th Street” and be on her way back to wherever she goes to hang upside down all day.

As I read about the convention, there are a couple of things that are glaringly obvious. I do not see new faces. It is the same faces over and over. Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, etc. When considering their policies, look across America and all I see is ineptness. Nothing encouraging or hopeful there. . .

The whole thing is surreal! I didn't realize the last 3-4 years were so great! What a bunch of dumb people.
Trying to put lipstick on a pig! The democrat party has hit bottom. Ugh.

I didn't watch last night and I won't be watching the rest of the week. I have no interest in a parade of liars talking to a room full of idiots.

Hillary also reminds us how fortunate we are that Donald Trump chose to run against her.
I must admit to a bit of schadenfreude that she wakes up every day knowing that she will never be president.

Hillary did remind everyone what could have been and what they hope they will be and should have scared they pantsuit off of everyone! What could have been: Hillary. What they hope will be: AOC, Kamala Harris, ðand abortion! If that doesn't scare the pantsuit off you, nothing will!

I tuned in for a while for entertainment value but there was none. They all shouted into the microphone and said nothing. I fell asleep during Sir Edmund's rant and won't be watching any more. They all made the clueless and do-nothing Kamala sound like the savior of the nation, poor fools.

Did anyone else notice Hillary's new appearance? Looks like she lost 30 pounds and had facial work done. One wonders why she waited so long and didn't do it back in 2016 when it might have helped her political career.

“…every child she protected…”
It takes incredible gall for her to say such a thing considering Democrats never saw an abortion they didn’t like!

Absolutely the last person in this world to be speaking about “decency.”

#5's last sentence is just rich!. As I saw the cameras panned the crowds, I had to wonder how so many normal looking people could be so messed up in their heads. I'm waiting for the moniker P.I.A.P.S. to start hitting for Kamala.

There should be a toteboard in the corner of the TV screen of how many babies have died (aborted) during the convention. Men snips optional.
I did like Hillary's outfit better than Jill's dress. She reminded me of a Tesla truck.

What could have been was Hitlary on TV screeching at us every night. I don't understand why all these Rat women think they need to scream into the microphone. I'm glad I'm currently on a cruise and had better things to do other than sit and watch the dumpster fire the DNC put on last night. Listening to the lowlights on F&F in my cabin this morning was bad enough. And it's all downhill from here.

With a space full of demons and evil activity, it's no wonder Chicago doesn't burn to the ground.

Thank you, #5, for the ref to "4th Street." I spent my better formative years majoring in classical music and have only just now read the lyrics. Wonder what else I missed!

I vote for keeping that "glass ceiling" firmly in place for a while longer.

Hillary has done her share of damage and is now forced to pass the broomstick to someone she knows is an absolute idiot. Obama is running that gig and she won’t be allowed anywhere near it. She’s done.

Missed her bitter antics...I simply turned off the whole mess of plot hype....the county is in a mess and she thanks biden for his destroying American drive....ole crooked Hillary will never get over her loss to President Trump..she's angry and bitter and feels like she was robbed of being the first woman president...never mind she lost fair and square...

An additional comment. Barack Obama is speaking tonight and I find it amusing that on June 17, 2024, he was assisting Joe Biden off stage from a fundraiser. I guess Barack Obama is just as confused as Joe Biden. I thought he was supporting Biden but now I guess it is Kamala Harris.
Democrats are all about confusion.

#25 Your comment reminds me I was wondering which Old Joe was on the stage last night. Only 2 months ago one of them couldn't find his way off the stage. The one last night yelled for a half hour and seemed much more awake. I have heard there are a few 'Old Joes.' I'm looking forward to when ALL of them are gone off our radar.
