live: democratic national convention

September 6, 2012

i didn’t have the patience (or spare time, or the death wish) to sit through the Republican National Convention this year, but haven’t missed a beat of the Democratic alternative. i’m a horrible person, but i’m in a much better mood because of it.

evancparker … proud to be an American. now excuse me while I turn off the TV for the next two months. #DNC2012
