1. Why does this sound like something a dictator would do?

eom

[Doosh]

4. lol, yea BUT

it will come across nicely on TV, the Dem planners should've thought up something cool for our convention.

15. I heard the RNC was going to adapt this stage ...

... they're negotiating to bring it out of mothballs.



The stage has four ramps: two in front (marked (a) and two in the sides (marked (b)! The two front ramps have lights built into them, that chase in patterns.

2. Whoop-de-sh**

A monkey in a sea of sycophants. Lovely.

3. Since he walks on water

will the sea gobble him up?

What a pompous fool!

5. A change of image

From how they run his events of recent weeks where people have to sign the loyalty oaths etc. Maybe some theatre along with tweaking his image.

7. It's for security reasons!

People in his own party can't even be trusted to protect him! ROFLOL

[bobbieinok]

8. earlier DU thread said he'll be in a protective bubble

[troublemaker]

13. Wow. I guess he really IS worried about his base

[w13rd0]

9. Will it rise up...

...lifting him into the air as he speaks?

If I were an evildoer, I might hope for a mechanical malfunction. Perhaps the circular stage will rotate, matching the "spin" his bullshit puts on his own failures, and he'll go flying off into the audience like Jerry off a phonograph.

10. I heard he was going to rise up from under the stage in a

bullet-proof bubble. Kind of a Christ-like ascension.

11. I can only pray that its something like that

I just want to see it in my lifetime.

12. This may or may not work out for Bush

It's different. Many people are NOT used to seeing performances "in the round". It's going to catch people off guard and they're going to say WTF?

But on the other hand, much of the press may "love" it, calling it "progressive, new, dynamic, open", just like the pResident!

The press has to play along for it to benefit bush. If they ignore it or pan it, bush takes a hit.

14. gee, i wonder which way the press will play it?
