RNC convention positive, uplifting contrast to leftist sourness

  Not a big fan of watching hours and hours of self-congratulatory groups of people scream and wave banners; that said, last night's Republican convention was rather enjoyable.
  Several themes ran throughout the speakers' speeches; strong marriages, independence and "We built this!"
  Without checking Leftist blogs, I'm guessing Ann Romney's comment that she has a real marriage (as opposed to a fairy tale one) will rile some of the easily riled pro-gay marriage crowd. Not that it should, but the Leftists seem to take great umbrage these days at anything traditionally American, patriotic, humorous or whiffing of Christianity.
  You might have noticed quite a few minority speakers on the Republican stage; well, you wouldn't have noticed those minority speakers if you were watching MSNBC because they cut away to their talking heads every time an Artur Davis or a Mia Love took the stage. At least that's what Newsbusters says:

When popular Tea Party candidate Ted Cruz, the GOP nominee for Senate, took the stage, MSNBC cut away from the Republican National Convention and the Hispanic Republican from Texas’ speech. 

MSNBC stayed on commercial through former Democratic Rep. Artur Davis’ speech, as well. Davis, who recently became a Republican, is black. Then, when Puerto Rican Governor Luis Fortuno’s wife Luce’ Vela Fortuño took the stage minutes later, MSNBC hosts Rachel Maddow and Chris Matthews opted to talk over the First Lady’s speech. And Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval? Noticeably missing from MSNBC, too. Mia Love, a black candidate for Congress in Utah, was also ignored by MSNBC.

  I personally wouldn't know because I can barely stand the stink when I skip over MSNBC, which I did to get to cSpan because Fox News ALSO had the talking heads on, like when Three Doors Down was on. I mean, sheesh.
  MSNBC truly is race obsessed as Newsbusters points out.  Every action committed by conservatives/Republicans is viewed through the prism of race: wait, isn't that a racist dog whistle I hear? And if I don't hear the racist dog whistle, that's why the MSNBCers are there to point it out to me.
  Again to Newsbusters, we learn why Leftists have claimed early and often that this RNC convention was going to be ugly and racist.

Liberal Daily Beast writer Michael Tomaksy has already labeled this year's Republican National Convention as "reprehensible."  In his insufferable knowingness, Tomasky claimed that the next few days will be a "toxic waste dump of hate and lies and race-baiting."  In other words, it will be the most racist gathering of party delegates in the history of the republic. Why? Because The New York Times said so, of course:

Tom Edsall said it without quite saying it this morning in the Times, that this Romney-Ryan campaign is becoming among the most racist we've ever seen. The two key lies so far are totally about race--that Obama is soft on welfare recipients, and that he's "robbing" $716 billion from Medicare (77 percent of recipients are white) to "pay for Obamacare" (that is, to extend health care to black and brown people who don't deserve it, havent earned it, etc.).

  Obviously I'm not objective but I heard no hate last night.
  I actually heard the word "love" over and over. I heard a call for leadership. A call for action. A call to save our country from the vast caverns of debt our leaders have led us into.
  Some of the racist howlers claim that Republicans can't just "throw a brown face" into their convention and pretend that they're diverse.
  Yet their speakers last night were very diverse, even if MSNBC was reluctant to disclose that fact.
  But, the squealers will squeal, those rascally Republicans had to dig hard to find those "brown faces."
  Uh, no.
  They did not.
  While it is true that many in the Republican audience are white (though statistically DNC delegates are wealthier many of whom are white), those who are leading states are not!
  What does this mean?
  It means that the magnificent Artur Davis, Mia Love and Ted Cruz are willing to take risks leading the way, just as the framers of the Constitution and the founding fathers of this country did.
  These people are the future; they are brave to face down extraordinary opposition in their races to forge a new path. 
  Racism is a powerful charge; when it rears its ugly head, it motivates those of us who hate it to denounce and revile.
  That is what has happened in the country today.
  There's one party that sees only race and racism under every bush.
  They're driving people into the Republican party, where they're welcomed with open arms.
  Last night's activities were positive and upbeat; little was said about Obama, other than the sorrowful state in which he has brought this country.
  In contrast, we are hearing that the primary focus at the DNC convention will be abortion and free stuff for women, which, of course, will only last as long as the country can afford to throw free stuff out there.
  Interesting that a Tweeter observed that Howard Fineman tweeted that Christie's speech was "a tough harsh nasty speech--but effective for the GOP base if nowhere else."
  Jonah Goldberg tweeted back: U write ur tweets in advance?
  Because that is definitely not the speech Christie gave last night. The harshest words from Christie were: Mr. President, real leaders don't poll. Real leaders change polls.
  But I guess for the Mr and Mrs Pantywaists out there, that's too harsh. Not like anybody was accused of murdering someone or being a felon or anything.
  I got news for ya, bimbos.
  The point of these conventions is to discuss differences.
  The point of these conventions is to put their parties in a position to win.
  So let's compare again.
  Republican themes: solid marriages, independence, we BUILT that.
  Democrat themes: abortion even in the third trimester and after birth (which some might call murder), free stuff, war on women
  Yeah.
  Sounds like a plan.
  We can clearly see the differences.
