After Caleb and I had finished reporting on the goings-on with the poor Fox News crew, we followed the march all the way to the Pepsi Center (I always thought that all you would find there is more Pepsi).
Along the way, I got a little bored listening to all the chanting and cranky from baking in the sun. There was no water anywhere.
To amuse myself, I decided to play a little joke on the protesters. My plan was to start them chanting, "Fight the Power," and then change to "Bite the Tower" halfway through. Why? It's funny to me.
You can see from the video how that worked out.
As luck would have it, I again found myself on the flipside of the same coin, with Caleb Howe filming my very serious protest toward the end of the march.
Towards the end of the march, this guy got on his bullhorn.
So I decided to balance things out a little. If Fox can do it, so can I.
Tommy Christopher, a Democrat, and Caleb Howe, a Republican, are on the ground in Denver to bring you their dueling political perspectives throughout the Democratic National Convention. Check back to follow their feature, "Floor Fight."
Obama keeps harping that he is African American. How does he hide the fact that he is Arabic and a couple of other nationalities thrown in. With what he projects as his answer for our economis problems, it will take down Wall Street and most of our future savings

It's amazing to me the arogance of the Democratic leadership, We have a president who upon taking office imeadiately worked to change the bankruptcy laws. now millions are going bankrupt and we ask for change. We have a president who lied to us about weapons of mass destruction and now has caused the deaths of thousands of our youth, we ask for change. We have a president who has manipulated the federal oil reserves over and over again driving the price of oil out of sight, we ask for change. We have a president who pardons his friends when lawfully convicted, we ask for change. We have a president who took a $750 million dollar surplus and turned it into an eleven trillion dollar deficit, we ask for change. We have a president who thinks it ok to violate any civil law in the bill or rigts & constitution he wants, we ask for change. We have unemployment, inflation,bankruptcies, foreclosures,and again we ask for change. So as a solution they tell us to vote for Obama who knows nothing and Biden who is an unknown, so now im going to give them change ... So now im changing... to Republican and voting for McCain in 08...

Obama is unqualified and unfit to become Commander-In-Chief. In fact, his association with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, among others, would prevent him from getting the security clearance needed to enter the military as a private. HE HAS NEVER SERVED OUR COUNTRY!
American citizens are beginning to realize that Obama and his angry wife are the most dangerous socialists to ever attempt a White House takeover.
It used to be that a candidate running for the highest position in the United States had to have an impeccable reputation, patriotism above reproach, outstanding ability and experience, a wife worthy to be first lady, and a character of the highest integrity.
There has never been a candidate for the presidency of the United States with more questionable background, more controversial issues, and more conflicts than Obama.
Obama has neither ability nor experience.
He truly is a Muslim who wants to be seen as a Christian. (How's that for disloyalty to both religions?)
There is much controversy regarding his birth place? He is receiving large donations from China, Iran, Iraq and who knows where else? Now it's being denied.
He is half white but identifies only with black.
His wife is a militant black who thinks like Malcolm X.
The conflicts and controversies, rumors, myths grow bigger by the hour.
Years ago this would have been a formula to reject such a candidate simply on the basis he was too controversial and suspicious to represent America.
Now --- none of those items seems to matter to a large percentage of voters as long as they think he is black, Muslim, and looks good.
Why not let O.J. become a member of the Supreme Court of the United States. So what if he killed two people! Why did Ted Bundy have to be executed? He would have made a good crime investigator! So what if he killed all those women.
In other words, it seems it doesn't matter how wrong or controversial a person may be as long as he is popular.
What is wrong with the minds of the American voters? If Obama is elected, then God help America --- It will get what it deserves!
The Honorable John McCain has proven he loves our country enough to die for us! As a Proud American, he gets my vote!

IT'S THE STUPID MEDIA......STUPID ! ! !
Thet are the ones promoting the two pronged mis-matching of the favored Obama Democratic Party against the defrocked Bush-Cheney-McCain Republican criminal Party and......
and the phony attempt to pit the Barack supporters against the Hillary loyalists !
It's the stupid media...stupid that wants confrontation, contention and conflagration in order to build viewership and audiences and allow them to charge more for each ad ! ! !
For my money...they can have it in spades...let's throw the Democratic convention wide open and let's have a floor fight for the nomination...nothing has been decided until sufficient REAL votes are counted ! ! !

WHY DOES THE OBAMA CAMP KEEP BRINGING UP PRESIDENT BUSH? HE IS NOT IN THIS RACE! HOWEVER, Bush and Cheney BOTH had "EXECUTIVE" experience. Bush had governed the great state of Texas for many years!
Neither Obama nor Biden have "executive" experience. Obama chose Biden because he, himself, lacks ANY experience. Biden has been in Washington 10 years longer than McCain --- So much for NEW and CHANGE.
OBAMA CAN KEEP HIS CHANGE, BECAUSE IT KEEPS CHANGING!
AS FAR AS I KNOW, JOE BIDEN IS A GOOD MAN; HOWEVER, BIDEN DID NOT RECEIVE 18 MILLION VOTES!! OBAMA'S DECISION TO IGNORE SENATOR CLINTON IS AN AFFRONT TO HALF OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. IN SHORT --- OBAMA HAS DISCREDITED HIMSELF AND SERIOUSLY DIVIDED THIS DEMOCRACTIC PARTY.
MICHELLE OBAMA IS A MEAN, HATEFUL WOMAN. Everyone knows Obama's wife is jealous of Hillary. She dared Obama to choose Hillary. We certainly don't need Michelle running a country she hates. Biden does not change the nature of the race. At the end of the day, we will vote for a "president" --- not a vice president!
VOTE FOR JOHN McCAIN IN NOVEMBER!

Hey PilotJim,
I hear you about his heritage. At best he should be considered multi-racial. And why should we look at him as African-American when he worked so hard to have his nose whittled to smooth out the African!!! So proud of black? Yea, everything but the Negroid nose.

THIS WEEK WILL BE TORTURE FOR THE SANE PEOPLE OF AMERICA. THE INSANE WILL SIT AND WATCH THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION. A GATHERING OF PIGS, COMMUNISTS, SOCIALISTS AND ENEMY TO AMERICA. ALL OF THIS AND MORE. THE ANTI CHRIST AND HIS BITCH WILL SPEAK. YOU CAN PUT A DRESS AND PEARLS ON MRS. OBAMA AND SHE WILL STILL BE WHAT SHE IS. A HATER OF AMERICA AND AMERICA'S WHITE POPULATION. INSIDE IS A TERRIBLE PERSON, OUTSIDE AN UGLY FASADE. I WILL KEEP MY TELEVISION OFF EXCEPT FOR THE WEATHER UPDATES ALL WEEK. G-D HELP US ALL. VOTE MC CAIN OR NOBODY HERE SURVIVES.

Did these Hippy-wanabe dipshi*s ride thier bikes to Denver from Boulder?? Is Denver Public Works Dept. going to have to foot the bill for the cleanup of these great pot smoking,stinky-ass loosers? Or maybe we should back charge their DNA deficient parents for footing their crack bills and Tuition. They too, are probably waiting for their Gub'mint checks so they can buy grow lights and Mallomars! I bet they could'nt be more proud of the nasty beasts, getting their 5 of fame by "PEACEFUL" protest...
