I am thrilled about the Democratic Convention which is no surpise. I am a life long Democrat. The joy and positive energy is desperately needed and gratefully accepted. I have experienced anxiety, anger, and sadness about our country's future.
However, there is the humorous side, and I think political parties are prone to exageration.
With weary eyes, from staying up too late to hear Biden, Obama, and Walz, I offer these:
MIDDLE CLASS IN, NOUVEAU RICHE OUT
HAND ON HEART IN, V FOR VICTORY OUT
FOOTBALL IN, SOCCER OUT
HIGH SCHOOL COACHES IN, HIGH SCHOOL COUNSELORS OUT
MC DONALDS IN, TAVERN ON THE GREEN OUT
WORK STUDY IN, RICH KID ALLOWANCES OUT
STATE UNIVERSITIES IN, IVY LEAGUE OUT
PROSECUTERS IN, DEFENSE ATTORNEYS OUT
LOCK HIM UP OUT, THANK YOU JOE IN
MIDWEST IN, COASTS OUT
SUITS IN, JEANS OUT
MILKSHAKES IN, SMOOTHIES OUT
CHICAGO IN, NEW YORK CITY OUT
CALIFORNIA IN, FLORIDA OUT
BLUE TIES IN, RED TIES OUT
HUGGING IN, HANDSHAKING OUT
REVELATION IN, STIFF UPPER LIP OUT
CRYING IN, STOICISM OUT
TRUTH IN, LYING OUT
BIRACIAL IN, ONE RACE OUT
RESPECT FOR OLD GUARD IN, DISRESPECT OUT
