Scott Ott's take on the DNC's 'united',cough,cough, tent:

Obama: DNC Tent Big Enough for Pro-Hillary Voters

by Scott Ott for ScrappleFace

(2008-08-25) — As unified Democrats unite together under one roof in Denver this week, Sen. Barack Obama reminded his united party that “our Democrat tent is big enough for all kinds of people — big enough for those who are pro-choice and pro-life, big enough for those who are pro-Obama and pro-Hillary.”

“Democrats are all about diversity,” the presidential hopeful declared during a tour of a Christian crisis pregnancy center, following brunch at a Planned Parenthood abortion clinic. “One of our core values is that you don’t have to give up who you are in order to join the Democrat party. Our policy is B.Y.O.A. — Bring Your Own Agenda. And if your agenda is that you want Hillary Clinton to be the next president of the United States, then who am I to trample on your freedom of speech? We rejoice in the wide diversity of our party.”

Sen. Obama said the convention in Denver will “demonstrate to the nation, and to the world, that true unity is achieved not through ideological agreement, or political reconciliation, but through fanning the flames of a white-hot hatred for the enemies of diversity.”

“In other words,” said Sen. Obama. “We really don’t care what you believe, or who your favorite Democrat candidate might be. All that truly matters is that you fear and loathe Sen. John McCain, who is nothing more than the next incarnation of George W. Bush, a man who has turned this once-great nation into a 3,000-mile-wide Abu Ghraib prison camp.”
