Saw the address. What a contrast between tonight's speech by G.W. Bush and last night's pathetic display by presidential wannabe Howard Dean.

The shots of Ted Kennedy's ugly mug were revolting. During Bush's speech, the cameras kept panning to Kennedy who was constantly shaking his head and grimacing as he wiped his brow. What a classless act. He looks like he put on 50 more pounds since last time I saw him. And if Ted Kennedy is so against the war in Iraq, then why was he in Iowa last night shilling for John Kerry - who also supported the war in Iraq?

BTW, Teddy Kennedy is fortunate that Howard Dean's burnout stole the spotlight. Otherwise, it would have been Teddy's drunken and incoherent introduction of John Kerry that would have been the laughingstock of the nation today.

I haven't read this whole thread yet - but I LOVED W's "Dean Moment" when he talked about criticism of Iraq not involving the world community and he said something like "Well I'm not sure how some of our partners will take that, Like Great Britain.. and Spain, and Australia, and Belgium and Morrocco, etc. etc. (probably said 10 more), then Applasue. Applause stops and he continues naming 5 or 6 more countries and says "plus seventeen other nations". I wonder if a speech writer put this in at the last moment, or if W did it himself? Glad George didn't freak out in the delivery like Dean did. :-)
