Default A New Hope

After watching the Kerry speech at a community house party where over twenty strangers got together, I am heartened that Kerry is truly a strong candidate.

He showed vision, wisdom,wit and character, He was positive yet unequivocal on his vision of a united America.

While the critics may try to wiggle between the lines, they know that there is a truly great context they ignore when they do so.

From the mouths of conservatives "We may have seen the acceptance speech of the next President of the United States...unless Bush and Cheney craft a careful vision of where they want to go." Robert George July 29, 2004, CNN

Default Thanks...

...for posting the post-speech DNC talking points, Bub. Hope the fax didn't burn your fingers rushing to the keyboard with it.

Now, go smoke another joint and tell yourself that crap a few more times.

And while your at it, be sure to click your heels together and repeat:

"There's no place like home. There's no place like home..."

Default Aah yes yet more insightful rhetoric from one of the

right-wing nutjobs that infest this board....

Did you actually listen to the speech, or would that have taxed your brain too much...?

Default My favorite lines

"Lets never misuse the constitution of the United States" to GWB

"to have family values you must first value families." (paraphrased)
"say not that I am doing God's work, but pray humbly we are on God's side" (paraphrased)

"I'm reporting for duty"

and so many more!

The real promises to the military to support our troops--to give them the healthcare they deserve and to support the military families.

(NOT with an 87Billion dollar package that supported Haliburton, et al. and left military families doing donation drives to get flack jackets and goggles and new equipment to our troops--then left families on food stamps.) <--my op ed.

He took back patriotism and he took back God! Fear destroys!

Obviously I don't have the transcript ... yet!

Help is on the way!

We can do better!

Nothing I could say would demonstrate the total and complete ignorance (of both reality AND religion) than this quote does of Kerry's supporters.

"He took back God"??

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!

Like I said in the "Kerry flopping big" thread....

I feel a WHOLE lot better.

Thanks John-John, for showing us all that you simply do not have what it takes to be a POTUS.

Lordy, can you imagine how his speech writers must feel? Having to get to work on a concession speech so quickly? Sucks to be one of them....

that video is pretty (*)(*)(*)(*)ing, I must say. I didn't like Kerry before I saw that, and I like him much less now. He is playing politics with our national security, and that upsets me more than anything else.

You think we are brainless Republicans or something. We are saying we agreed with what he said, and somehow you are incapable of understanding that. Now I see why you are a Republican, you obviously can't believe anything unless it is a 2 second sound bite laced with fear. Well you should be afraid, because the United States is going to have a real leader elected in November. (p.s. leaders lead people, not act unilaterally through force and coercion)
