"Don't listen to the voices" spam....
Good idea, I want some popcorn. Maybe shower first... it's so hot here...
Dang, he were good...
Yeah! It was good!
The song that is on right now "I hope you dance" always makes me bawl.
I really like this man.
This speech was interesting, from a technical point of view. It was almost like a Concerto, or maybe a symphony in six movements. It began sorta mezzo piano... had the occasional Dolce moment... subsided into soft movements, then punched the occasional mezzo forte... dunno if it ever caught the fortissimo moment. Maybe for me but maybe not for others. But the movement when he started in about the difficulty of sending soldiers in harms way I thought there for a moment that he was just about to lose his composure and tear up.
In absolute terms he's delivered more powerful speeches... but this one did something extra.

I think we ~are~ in some kind of Bizarro universe.
You're in SanFran overhearing conservatives in a bar.... and over at DU there is France bashing and someone just posted a prayer thread.
....and my brother is talking like my husband.
I like that description! Ramius, are you secretly a poet?
I think it was a very good speech for his audience - sort of assuming we're all fired up to get him re-elected, and now laying out the logic of why he, not Kerry, ought to be President. I know that sounds backwards but it helps clarify why I'm voting for him. Other than all the obvious reasons.
Dubya done us proud, as always! :-D
I'm gonna try to hit the hay everyone. I don't know if they'll call me into work tomorrow, so I've got to get some rest if I can!
Good night!
Nice metaphor!

Have a good night, and stay safe... (maybe your car should have trouble starting when you try to leave for work in the morning?)
Awww, you got the line I was gonna use. Oh well, this one is good too.
They're both good lines.
Nite folks.
Good night....
I'm feeling all timpani on the brain cells today. I spent entirely too long in meetings with consultants and auditors this week... and I'm feeling very much fortissimo... to the point of violence.
I'm having very bad thoughts about Mister Sorbanes and Mister Oxley. Bad things. Hurtful things. Things involving vats of superheated and/or supercooled liquids. Or both.
