please have your barf bag handy, folks.

"Fulfilling America's Promise: Building a Safer World and a More Hopeful America"

Senator Zell Miller (D-GA)
Excerpts from Keynote Address to the 2004 Republican National Convention

Senator Miller on his second Keynote Address, and first to a Republican National Convention:

"Like you, I ask which leader it is today that has the vision, the willpower and, yes, the backbone to best protect my family? The clear answer to that question has placed me in this hall with you tonight. For my family is more important than my party."

Senator Miller on the Democratic Party:

"Time after time in our history, in the face of great danger, Democrats and Republicans worked together to ensure that freedom would not falter. But not today. Motivated more by partisan politics than by national security, today's Democratic leaders see America as an occupier, not a liberator."

"...They don't believe there is any real danger in the world except that which America brings upon itself through our clumsy and misguided foreign policy. It is not their patriotism - it is their judgment that has been so sorely lacking."

Senator Zell Miller on his colleague, Senator John Kerry:

"Twenty years of votes can tell you much more about a man than twenty weeks of campaign rhetoric. Campaign talk tells people who you want them to think you are. How you vote tells people who you really are deep inside."

Senator Zell Miller on the differences between John Kerry and President Bush:

"John Kerry wants to re-fight yesterday's war. George Bush believes we have to fight today's war and be ready for tomorrow's challenges. George Bush is committed to providing the kind of forces it takes to root out terrorists."

Senator Zell Miller on President George W. Bush:

"Right now the world just cannot afford an indecisive America. Fainthearted, self-indulgence will put at risk all we care about in this world. In this hour of danger our President has had the courage to stand up. And this Democrat is proud to stand up with him."
