But, back to the real topic now....

...who is up for creating a drinking game for these proceedings?

What in the world would the game be. It's not focused enough to promote any binging. The RNC's fears are pretty wide spread.

Easy. Every time they show or interview a black person with a cowboy hat take a drink. Every time they use the words repeal ObamaCare, take a drink. Every time someone yells out Crooked Hillary, that's two shots and every time the word "Bhengazi" is uttered, beer and a shot.

Any one notice that the lady whose son was killed by a Mexican gang blamed Obama for not doing anything? Problem was it occurred in the summer of 2008. The election was in the fall iirc. Or that Melania says she wrote the entire, speech so what speech writer do you fire? Details, details.

Got to love the Leader's entrance with backlighting and fog. "We're gonna' win. We're gonna' win big." Wonderful theatre.
onward...through the fog

RNC Drinking Game – This is for speeches given on the main stage:

1 drink every time someone says "Crooked Hillary"
2 drinks every time someone says "BENGHAZI!"
3 drinks every time someone says "email server"
Take a shot every time an actual elected Republican member of Congress or state governor actually mentions Trump

I guess my title of the subject was prophetic...

Norovirus outbreak reported among GOP convention staffers

So now, it's literally...a s**t show.   ;D

I think I heard that on several of Trump's construction sites people have died, there have been safety violations, warnings, complaints, etc.  

If Hillary is responsible for the Benghazi deaths, couldn't it be argued that Trump is responsible for the deaths on his development sites?  

I wonder who is responsible for "murdering" (if we are going to use that language for these tragedies) more people under their watch?

If he can't manage a few construction sites, how are we supposed to believe he is going to be more responsible handling the entire US government including its numerous embassies?

Looks like the speechwriter fell on the sword.  Evidently Melania read passages from the First Lady's speech to her, and she wrote them.  Not necessarily verbatim, but at this point, the damage is done, although the Donald responded to it by saying 'any publicity is good publicity'.

How's that for plagiarism?

This week sure hasn't lacked for entertainment.

He has also been illegally misappropriating copyright material for his own entertainment objectives.  Stealing Queen's music.  Just another layer of criminal activity he engages in.  Remember the college kids that have been prosecuted and fined hundreds of thousands of dollars for downloading just to listen in the dorm?  Well, Trump is using this in his "sales pitch" to the nation.  Classy as always....

So, after a day and a half of denying it was similar or that it was in any way copied from Michelle's speech, they now say that she read the speech to someone who wrote it down? So basically, yeah... we copied the speech from Michelle.  You think our helping, but...

Listened to a number of highlights, seems like the RNC really hates Hillary, really loves Jesus (who is on their side), hates Obama (who is a Moslem), and are going to make America great again. Other than that, I haven't gotten anything from the convention.

What did you all expect to happen? Maybe it's me that just doesn't understand what is supposed to happen at a convention. I'm not saying it's not a dog and pony show, but that's what I expected it to be. Who here thought anything different.

It's exactly what I expected.  As will be the DNC convention.
