The RNC Daily Outrage - September 1

RNC - DAY 1: Top 5 Outrages

(I can neither confirm nor deny that any of these news reports are accurate. Plan accordingly.)

5. Fascist Republicans denying alcohol consumption - "That included a warning to Louisiana delegates against traditional alcohol-laced "hurricane parties" — following reports of a late-night celebration on Sunday ahead of the storm's landfall on Monday."

4. no substantive news coverage of protests - "About 2,000 protesters waving peace sign flags rallied at the state Capitol on Monday before an anti-war march to the convention site. Hundreds of police wearing bulletproof vests and carrying billy clubs stood by."

3. if it really is country first, why did it take until today for McCain to put on his "American hat?" - "the overall theme, "Country First," which is designed to reflect or highlight John McCain's record of leadership and service to America."

2. Maybe the GOP does have a direct line to God. How else could they have gotten out of this one so easily? - "The White House announced this morning that President Bush won't attend the Republican National Convention, making him the first sitting president to skip a convention since President Johnson did it in 1968."

and the number 1 RNC outrage (a two-fer actually), Karl Rove's calling Biden "doofus." - First, why is Karl Rove still walking around and not in jail? - And second, the "journalist" who asked if Biden would respond should be fired. Immediately.
