I just saw something "odd."

FOX news was talking about its coverage of the Democratic convention. The commentator stated and visually displayed, that their coverage would begin exactly at 9:11 a.m.
:wow:

4. That is odd.

I just heard that the authorities are investigating a report that terrorists were planning to poison Denver's water supply. Some of Denver's water comes from springs. One spring is located under the Brown Palace Hotel and, to my knowledge, it still serves as the hotel's water supply. Does anyone know where the Dems are staying while in Denver?

6. They are staying in a multitude of hotels

Each state is "assigned" a hotel and there are usually several state delegations that stay in each hotel. In 2004, I was a delegate from Kansas. We shared a hotel with Tennessee (which is how we met the Gores), Utah and one of the Dakotas.

9. The hotel's water is supplied by an underground spring?

That seems hard to believe.

11. You can call them.

Brown Palace - 321 17th St., 303.297.3111
Built in 1892, still using pure Rocky Mountain spring water from its own artesian well and serving high tea, the Brown Palace is one of Denver's most elegant hotels. From The Beatles to past presidents, the Brown Palace has hosted many famous visitors.

5. I'm VERY surprised the RNC didn't plan their extravaganza to fall on 9/11

Edited on Wed Aug-20-08 08:29 AM by bushisanidiot

to celebrate it as the big day their clueless leader got the biggest jump in the polls he ever had.

I use to see FOX every time I went to the Bank and a few business places.

They were not on in the Bank anymore - I hope that is a trend.

13. Know your enemy.

If I had not been watching I would not have noticed this tidbit propaganda.

15. Actually, I was just flipping channels and that headline caught my eye.

But I do occasionally watch it in the morning. "Fox and Friends" doesn't seem too partisan, and have some funny segments.
