Democrats Ransack The Pepsi Center

by Joe @ MHH on Aug 25, 2008 12:05 PM MDT in News Comment 60 comments

The Democratic party has already stormed into the Pepsi Center for their presidential convention, which begins today. Unconcerned for the sanctity of the facility, they selfishly wrecked the place just to further their all-about-me, blame-America-first campaign to put some guy named Hussein in the White House.

Here is some photographic evidence of the destruction:

What a disaster. And it only gets worse from here.

All this chaos and destruction just so they could put up this monstrosity:

Seriously, what the hell is that? Some kind of float for a San Francisco sodomy rights parade? Do these people have no shame?

They obviously have no concern for the Avalanche, those heroes in burgundy and blue who have long fought to keep us all free from the tyrannical onslaught of the wretched Calgarians and Edmontonians. Did you know that Joe Sakic spent five years in a Canadian prison camp? True story.

Is it just me or..

Did they take down all the sports banners of won divisions, cups, and retired numbers?

Also, I think they took down the Canadian flag next to the US one.

Yeah, it appears so. Not that it doesn’t make sense. I mean, a Canadian flag at a US presidential convention might look a little out of place.

Their anthem is better, though.

Seperation

Did they take down all the sports banners of won divisions, cups, and retired numbers?

First the Dems try to take “under god” out of the pledge of allegiance, and now They took down Roy’s Banner? This separation of church and state business is getting out of hand.

the fact that they out such a monstrous piece of of background is enough to desicrate the our burgundy, blue and white, oh the shame!!! and the sad part is that for the next 50 years all the can will be known for is that ugly ass dem. convention background thingy, oh the missery!

you know

I wonder if they will do the same thing at mile high stadium. Maybe they will take down the bronco statue because it represents a false idol. Maybe they will cover up the ring of fame with a ring of fame of presidents.

Ring of fame of Presidents, that’d be a short ring. Is there even enough good presidents to make a ring?

You’re a great hyphen-user, and I should know, because I’m Mr.-I-use-far-too-many-hyphens-all-the-time.

You should also have thrown in “re-sign,” which some people continue to misspell.

I hate to do this, but you misused the word yesterday in your FanPost about the EA rankings:

Totally ripped from Die By The Blade, I figured I’d have a look which Avalanche player will have the best personal stat, according to the ever trustworthy EA Sports NHL 09, Keep in mind they assume Foppa and Sakic will resign:

That’s why the Brits leave it at maths (at least, my British maths teachers did).

55% of the country got the president they deserved while the other 45% got crapped on. I wouldn’t call that a country who got what they deserved.

Uh, go Avs.
