The big mystery of the 2012 GOP convention

be6eb3a071c9b318190f6a706700d39e

Can anybody identify that rectangular item in the upper left-hand corner of this AP photo, taken during Paul Ryan’s speech last night to the Republican National Convention?

The vice-presidential nominee seemed to be glancing at it quite a bit last night, almost as if he was reading from it. Anybody got any ideas? In fact, I believe that every single speaker at the convention with one exception — Condi Rice — has been staring at that thing during their speeches. It’s almost as if they needed somebody to tell them what to say.

I’m going to be watching Mitt Romney closely tonight, just to see if he too starts staring at that … whatever it is. Weird, huh?

Turns out I am not leaving just yet after all.

Towncrier: Ann Coulter has a history of misusing evidence. She will make a claim, then use evidence that does not support her claim, and say that it does. Since YOU are the one asserting that the welfare ad is accurate, perhaps you would like to actually read analysis which asserts otherwise from, oh, EVERYWHERE else?

I do not sully my computer with anything from The Daily Caller anymore, not after they have been shown, repeatedly, to get things wrong. If your argument is then that other fact checkers cannot be relied upon because they sometimes get things wrong too, then you are simply creating an impasse on purpose to avoid examining the evidence that shows the welfare as is not only inaccurate, but a flat out lie.

That comment rubbed me the wrong way, too, and I was ready to use it against her. The more I watched her though and the more I thought about it, I can see myself saying something very similar, say, if Unmentionable were elected President (ha! perish the thought, I wouldn’t vote for him. He’d give the country back to the Indians!) She was inexperienced in the ways of the glaring limelight. She learned quickly and has been consistently one of the most gracious First Ladies, accepting the traditional role with warmth and charm. She won me over when she chose the Huckabee show to announce her “cause” of childhood good nutrition, a cause on which she and he agreed and were passionate. That was a class act on both their parts, imauo.

“Towncrier: Ann Coulter thinks people being liberal is a “religion.” Of course I am not going to listen to her. Especially when she indicates that the welfare ad is accurate. That’s just plainly dishonest. Stupid people can’t get away with as many lies as she tells.”

Well, then, you are just stopping up your ears and being close minded. I have read some of the liberal articles you have linked and often read articles from sites like the Huffington Post, the New Republic and others. I listen to arguments here as well, because while I have different values from many here, I also recognize that liberals are not always wrong (any more than conservatives are always right) and vice versa.

RE: “why don’t you take [Ann Coulter's] argument on instead of dismissing it simply because she is Ann Coulter?…

Actually, I did take one of her arguments on. She falsely claimed that everybody was quoting a single fact-checker about the welfare ads. That clearly wasn’t true.

That statement alone, a statement in a piece about others not telling the truth, illustrates (yet again) that nothing she tells us can be trusted. It’s tiring to argue with somebody who continually demonstrates that she’ll say anything to defend the indefensible.

Towncrier: Don’t play the high ground card. Ann Coulter has EARNED me not listening to her, as has Daily Caller. I used to read both, and now I don’t because I have seen it’s a complete waste of time. If you can find someone else who isn’t also on my ignore list who says the welfare ad is accurate, then fine. And if you have a separate link to an analysis by “someone in the liberal camp” then that’s fine too. But this is Ann Coulter we are talking about. It is unlikely (but not impossible) that she misused whoever you were talking about’s analysis.

Clearly? Who says so? Coulter couldn’t pick a more irregularly and counterintuitive liberal if she tried.

Holding Kaus up as being somehow emblematic of liberal thought is like holding David Frum up as an exemplar of American conservatism.

“If your argument is then that other fact checkers cannot be relied upon because they sometimes get things wrong too…”

That was not an argument; it was a statement of fact in my opinion. In my book, purporting or claiming to tell the truth or facts and then NOT doing it then you lose all credibility. They are calling themselves “FACT CHECKERS”, for Pete’s sake. And they have been shown to be wrong many times. So they should cease and desist, imho. Coulter is making claims and arguments – she is NOT calling herself a fact checker.

“…then you are simply creating an impasse on purpose to avoid examining the evidence that shows the welfare as is not only inaccurate, but a flat out lie…”

Not so. But my problem with these so-called “fact checkers” is that I think we all want to be able to go to some authoritative source of information to determine the truth amidst all of the conflicting statements and evidence. So they were attractive to me – after all, who wants to spend hours determining the truth or falsity of every claim? But as I have discovered they, and the “evidence” they adduce, are not entirely reliable, I am put back in the same position. I no longer can trust their verdict so I refer to them only as a possible source of evidence for conducting my own investigation.

When they purport to present the facts and don’t then they are being dishonest and maybe worse.

Not many have the success that this lady has had. And you won’t celebrate this success because she belongs to the “wrong” political party. Hell, she even endorsed Bozo for president along with Colin Powell. And to you, she is still some kind of pariah. Liberal logic is at best confusing and at worst…….

You just don’t get it, do you?

no you don’t!! Why didn’t she mention anything about the weapons of mass destruction? Is that one of the reasons that we went to war with Iraq? Were those weapons EVER found?

TC, so how do YOU explain how the GOP has elected exactly four black US Senators since the first year of the Chester A. Arthur administration?

Yeah, I thought so.

LOL…

Adam,

Well I did see an affiliate tv station of NBC which is the most liberal of the major networks. And the station if I remember was from philly- not exactly a Republican stronghold of course. If it was you wouldn’t have mobs randomly attacking people in the streets now would you? Just another Dem cesspool of anarchy and urban decay.

Now, look, it may be true that the WMD thingie was used as an excuse and none were found, but if you ask the Kurds, Sadam did have them and did use them…

JamVet, 7:35,

Don’t be such a twit!!! You might be surprised at who we could elect to public office. Rice, however, did endorse Bozo in 2008. That might get her some flak from the ultra right wing Repubs but most of us are not so far to the right as you might accuse us of. Black presidents have arrived. Didn’t you notice?

Don’t see ryan as having any substance at all. Maybe we have a different idea of what constitutes substance.
I see Ryan as one of the most two demensional characters in politics we have had in a long time, if not ever.
The guy has nothing going on.

Condi had plenty to say about the president’s foreign policy but nothing about her lack of knowledge about those weapons.

Those WMDs? Most of the Democratic party signed off on them prior to going to war. I won;t do your homework for you but you might google all of the Democrats that voted to go to war, stated that we have to find those WMDs and bring Saddam to a just end. And you blame Bush and the Repubs.
