Obama's New America

A few notes on the final night of the Democratic National Convention:
1.) Why is anyone at all surprised that Michelle Obama, Joe Biden, and Bill Clinton praised President Barack Obama? Why did the NBC anchors tear up over Biden praising his boss and Michelle lauding her hubby. They are his family, his political cronies, his buddies. They sup at his table. Why is it impressive that they praise him and look deeply moved at the mention of his name?
2.) The GOP made a big mistake at the convention not paying homage in a huge way to the military and their families. The Democrats drove a truck right through that hole and the Republicans got run over by it.
3.) Mr. Obama made much of the truth that the USA is producing a lot more energy from oil and gas domestically now compared with some years ago. But he gives no credit at all to the oil companies and the gas companies that made that possible. In fact, he endlessly damns them. What sad hypocrisy.
4.) Did anyone but me notice how when Mr. Obama said he would not allow the Iran regime to get a nuclear weapon, there was no cheering in the hall? Did anyone notice no cheering for his support of Israel? This was a highly pro-Arab, anti-Israel group in Charlotte. Pro-Israel voters be warned. This is the future.
