[Scripted and choreographed. There may not be any faux Greek columns this time, but the script will be the same. The Chicago Jesus will trot out those whom he has saved. Throw down your crutches, get up out of your wheel chairs, toss away your bandages and your fluocinonide or neosporin creams, tear off your Adult Huggies, your dark glasses and toss your white white canes, and rush to the stage, shouting all the way "I've been saved Lord Obama, Chicago Jesus, I've been saved through your help and intervention! Let us just touch the hem of your coat?"
"PS! For all you media convention goers, your freshly worn, still warm and moist undergarments with your network and/or news media logos embroidered onto them tossed onto the stage after our Chicago Jesus finishes speaking would still be a nice touch, and appreciated, this year as it was in 2008. Thanks for your cooperation."
"This is the day the oceans stopped rising and the planet began to heal. Nobody has a job, but lets try not to go there."]
"Advisers to President Barack Obama are scripting a Democratic National Convention featuring several Republicans in a prime-time appeal to independents and planning a blistering portrayal of Mitt Romney as a heartless aristocrat who would devastate the American middle class, Democratic sources tell POLITICO.
According to convention planning documents, the three-night convention in Charlotte, N.C., early next month will seek to [e]xpose Mitt Romney as someone who doesnt understand middle class challenges while also burnishing the Presidents image as someone whose life story is about fighting for middle class Americans and those working to get into the middle class.
Each night of the convention will include a star turn for what planners call real people for instance, an auto worker whose job was saved, a student who benefited from college loans and an entrepreneur fueled by federal research-and-development funds.
The most innovative and harshest element of the preliminary program is a nightly social contrast in which two people describe their personal experience with a hot-button issue one person lauding the presidents actions, the other taking Romney to task. Each paired-testimonial should have an unexpected participant, the documents say.
But the plans show organizers intent on steering clear of controversy as well. For the gay marriage social contrast, for instance, the documents state the participants should be not a gay couple but a parent and gay son or daughter."
