Prepare for Fun

 
The Democrat National Convention is next week. It will be a well scripted coronation
of Barack Obama as the standard bearer of the Democrats in the upcoming election.
But Wait.... The Clintons have 2 nights to rile up the crowd. Hillary's delegates get to
vote. Could there be drama?
There are some lingering questions, Is there a Michelle Obama 'whitey' tape? Is there
an issue with Obama's birth certificate? Is there an August surprise?  Probably not,
but then, these are the Democrats.
 
But that is not where the fun is.
It's outside. There will be the usual cast of zanies. Code Pink, gay groups, angry
feminists. Idealistic zealots all. They will put on a show. (The media will even act
like they are normal people).
 
Now, if there is any shenanigans inside the convention hall, that will manifest itself
outside in the form of loud and angry protests.
Then it will really be fun.
 
Wisconsin Guys
There is a style of humor in the upper midwest that revolves around sight gags
and plays on words. ("Nice beaver."  "Thanks, I just had it stuffed."  If you are
smiling now, you have seen the movie. If not you are going, like whaaat?)
 
The Zucker brothers capture this type of humor in their films, especially
'Top Secret'. They are most famous for the movies 'Airplane' ,a spoof of the
ubiquitous Airport series, and the 'Naked Gun'.
 
One of the brothers, David Zucker, produced a movie to be released
in early October. It is a spoof of Michael Moore.
'An American Carol' is destined to be a Conservative Comedy Classic.
