Kerry reception at Guard convention "icy."
PBS "News"

Just watched the account on PBS news of the Kerry Guard convention speech. They juxtaposed about 3 minutes of Bush's speech a couple of days ago with 3 minutes of Kerry's speech today. Although they made no verbal comment, the difference was so devastating for Kerry that I am amazed they showed it! (Bush was recieved warmly, smiling faces, appropriate applause, etc.) Kerry on the other hand delivered his defeatist screed to stonefaced silence. The camera panned at times to a few listeners walking out, a few boo's and NOT A SINGLE CLAP BY ANYONE IN THE CROWD! Kerry paused as if waiting for applause a few times, but NOTHING! I was dumfounded that they showed this on PBS!
Did anyone get another view?

I watched excerpts of both; what did kerry expect after trashing the National Guard for months? This deal with danrather was the icing on the cake for these guys. God bless the National Guard.

you could count each clap when he did get applause, he looked very strained, all the networks cut away........it was kerry's just desserts.

Thanks for the update. I'm surprised this sort of thing would slip onto PBS airwaves. Someone is going to be in big trouble tomorrow for making "their" candidate look bad!

C-SPAN is replaying Bush's speech to NAGUS right now. What a reception -- standing ovation for W!

I posted this on another thread and I'll repost it here:
Oh.my.God.
At the top of the hour WABC news, they played a clip of Kerry saying to vets today that Bush has not been telling the truth about Iraq and that each day is met with more chaos and INDISCRIMINATE killing.
Yes, he said indiscriminate killing. What the h*ll does that mean?
Can you believe this a$$hole?
Just so everyone knows.

Thanks for the heads up. I just turned it on. Tired of hearing that it's not the fact that the memos are forged, it's the core allegations.

. . . and most of the short clips of this Kerry speech show smiling and clapping National Guardsmen on stage in uniform.
Once again, the press shows the Democratic side/spin.
