2. God F#@&ing Damn....
The repuke convention is nauseating. How anyone can be swayed by the pant load of crap offered by these idiots is beyond comprehension.

3. mark414, I'm not a spring chicken any more and have high blood pressure
and my heart races and I could feel my blood pressure and heart rate going up while listening to this lying piece of crap, so I changed the channel before I throw something at my tv. (I was just about ready to puke)

4. My 17 yr old Daughter came downstairs to ask me if I was watching
cheney's speech? I told her I really couldn't stomach watching any of the RNC. She was so upset at the lies that he was telling that she told me that she had been yelling at the tv.... :-)


She started her Senior year on Monday of this week and has a U.S. Government class. She took notes of the speech and brought it up for current events. Her teacher a staunch Dem himself... has to be careful to not be biased..... was beaming a big grin as she pointed out to the class several mis-truths..on Veterans, Education and the Economy. Now she wants to start a Political Current Events club in her school... so she and others would have a place to discuss issues more in depth with her peers. :-)

I am so proud of her...:bounce:

I would be beaming if I were you. You raised a great kid.
She is female, can think for herself, and she is a leader.

5. Did he rise out of the floor or not? There was some confusion about
that earlier. Did he walk out, or did he have a little Frampton Comes Alive moment? :p

19. I was big-time bummed.
He just walked out. After the pre-event hoopla, I was expecting him to rise from the bowels of the earth with smoke filtering through the arena.

I think it would have been appropriate, but alas! He just strutted out to the Presidential Seal stage and read a teleprompter.

Bummer.

9. Where are the protesters?
Certainly there must be a few. I wouldn't mind seeing a riot about now.

17. I made the mistake of looking at * for a few minutes...God, am I sorry!!
I've been laid up a couple of days with an ear infection. It was improving today -- then I watched Shrub's crocodile-tear act for a few minutes, and I swear, my entire head is throbbing.

Big mistake.
