A Look Back at Reason TV's DNC Coverage

Zach Weissmueller and Paul Detrick | 9.8.2012 10:00 AM

The Democrats wrapped up their convention this past week with President Obama officially accepting his party's nomination. But before we turn our eyes to Election Day, let's take a moment to reflect on the facepalm inducing moments of the week through the eyes of Reason TV.

Is it appropriate to call these anti-choice religious fruitcakes that fascist word?

  Yes, they are Mussolinis. All of them.

    Just when you thought Republicans were as loathsome as you can get......
    
    Hey honey, these are the stultified, envy driven apple-polishing fascists of today's American Police/Welfare/Warfare state. Not one word of criticism of the Government is allowed....

Still wondering if I should subject myself to the inevitable torture that is the above video.

Democrats: Let's Ban Profits!
1. Caleb Turberville 13 years ago
  
  But doesn't banning profits "feel" like the right thing to do?
  1. Killazontherun 13 years ago
    
    Well, obviously the 'sensible' solution is the middle ground as most of those asked had a knack for finding it. Instead of banning corporate profits we should put a cap on it. Really, they've trained their itty bitty heads so well, the 'sensible' third way always comes to them at the ready. That just how mature, common sense oriented people think. A cap!

  These folks need to buy up the voting majority of shares of several publicly-traded companies and elect board members who will run the place along those principles.
  
  I'll grab the popcorn.

  Mmmm...all the desserts, deep-fried pork rinds and candy you want and watch those pounds melt away.

Wow, the last few seconds of the video sum it all up nicely. Statist pricks!

Who had the idea for the "pro-choice" segment? Genius. Pure genius.

They had me at hypocrisy, but the sheer, rank, blatant contempt they have for fat people in that section of the video is just appalling. Tell me again how much you care about bullying, you self-righteous, feel-good pricks!

  That gal in the cowboy hat was rather zaftig. I think she's made some poor choices. I hope the Party sends someone to help her make the right ones...or else.

Government should make all bad choices illegal, so that we're free to only make good choices.

They cockblock

You keep on using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

Much respect for the Reason crew with this portrayal of exactly what's wrong with the Democrat party and what's wrong with modern American citizens. These conversations further my belief that the America that should be is no longer.

Why are young people so in love with government? I don't get it. What the fuck is wrong with them?
