What's the point of listening when the RAT's have nothing to say?

The Rats have a huge uphill battle. Bush will win, the question is by how much?

Bush recalled that the country has not suffered an attack since the 9-11 hijackings - and see him as an exceptionally strong leader.

And, just imagine what the American populace will have to say about Kerry, the possible leader, when the public finds out he was a "thrower of someone else's military medals" kind of guy.

Democrats will find it harder to be heard

Why, someone taking the NY Times away from them? Is Dan Blather retiring? Is the Washington comPost taking a hard right turn?

Shhhhhhh! Let's not let the cat out of the bag on Kerry too soon. We've already lost Dean as a possible opponent. We don't want to do anything to lose Kerry.

His Democratic would-be opponents, meanwhile, had to settle Tuesday night for a few seconds of air time on those same networks, responding to what the president had to say.

Oh, and a thrill that was... Nancy with her fluorescent teeth and catatonic gaze, reading her platitudes with a quaalude gait, and rambling tiny Tom, realizing for perhaps the first time that he had indeed just been neutered.

YES! I figure the Clintons will allow Kerry to rock ahead for awhile............then kablooie!!!

Kerry may have to start singing the national anthem for very little reason, just like Doc Dean!!! ;)

This is all set up for The Rotten Crusty!

You may joke now that Bush has November all sewed up, and President Bush and his advisors may feel secure in his lead in polls at the moment. But need you be reminded President Bush won by a only a slim margin in 2000, and if he's not careful, he could easily alienate the more extreme conservative margin resulting in a loss of the White House?

Taking the constituency for granted? Nothing in politics is a sure thing until it's in the past tense - especially promises.

"...had to settle Tuesday night for a few seconds of air time..."

A clear falsehood to anybody who actually watched. They got much more time than this and had plenty of opportunity to throw mud on Bush's SOTU.

When you can blast money out of a firehose, you can knock down most any opponent...

Well, the only thing I can suggest is that you not read these threads. I do not read books that do not interest me.
