I deeply resent you calling the President a descipacle creep. For your information there are many of us who love and respect the President and think people like you are ......well...... I can't say it or I would be banned.

Re: The Republican Convention

I thought tonight was a good night for the Republican convention!

Fred Thompson gave a great speech as I knew he would. I think he not only painted a picture of the life story that McCain has to prepare him for the Presidency but did a great job of contrasting his actual accomplishments against the zero accomplishments of Obama other than him being a great orator.

Joe Lieberman also did a good job bringing an outsider's perspective to supporting McCain for President. He also did a good job of contrasting Obama's lack of experience againt McCains accomplishments.

I can't wait to hear Governor Palin tomorrow night!

I thought it was humorous that Lieberman even gave a little plug to Clinton, to contrast Obama's lack of experience ect. Saying this would probably be a first before he mentioned Clinton in such a positive manner at Republican convention.

Fred Thompson hit it out of the park. dude was on fire.

I heard Newt this morning. he was being intervewed on some tv show last night and said something along the lines of
"all Obama has done is write a couple of books and run for president. You show me where his experience compares to Sarah Palin"

dude was attacking the lib host! it was funny!

I would say I disagree with most of what Lieberman stands for, but he is one of the most honest guys in Washington and he deserves credit for that.

He did do a great job. I found something interesting today and wonder what that is about.

Last night my husband and I were listening to Fred's speech. When he talked about McCain's stint in Vietnam he said that his bones may have been broken but his honor was not.

I turned to my husband and said, "He should have said "spirit".

NOW, today I am listening to his speech again on this link:

http://www.dingonation.com/politics/...peech-on-video

And he uses the word "spirit" here and not "honor". I wonder what that was about? How weird.

I also found it very interesting that ABC News covered every detail of each speech of the DNC, but only was highlighting portions last night.

Re: The Republican Convention

That's why I've been watching it on C-Span. You can see it all without commentary.
