  • I’m guessing #RNC2012 speakers are telegraphing messages to people who only watch FOX cuz some of the talking points don’t make sense to me. #
  • Ryan just criticized Romney’s taste in music? Then how can his taste in running mate be trusted?!?!? #hyperboleisfun #
  • My playlist consists of a string of podcasts. I never commit to songs. Then again I’m gay, what do I know about marriage or commitment? #RNC #

  • My favorite are the blonde GOP latinas // RT @prplst: Let’s cut to another blonde wearing pearls, applauding. #RNC2012 #misogyny #
  • I’m actually tearing at watching the #RNC2012 …since it is becoming clear that Romney had a looooong way to go to win this election. #
  • Awkward entrance for Mittens. #RNC2012 #
  • Code for the unborn will soon vote // RT @felixsalmon: what on earth is a “kinship with the future”? #
  • If Americans watched a crowd screaming “Iran, Iran, Iran!!” the way GOPers are doing it at #RNC2012 they’d be horrified. #
