ATLANTA -- Michael Stanley Dukakis, a self-described "very, very long- shot" candidate just 16 months ago, last night became the Democratic nominee for president and his party's best hope to win the White House since 1976.
Earlier, Sen. John F. Kerry took to the convention hall podium, telling the delegates that the "moral darkness" of President Reagan's presidency will soon end.
"A Republican president once reminded us, 'There is absolutely nothing to be said for a government of powerful men with the ideals of pawnbrokers,' " Kerry said.
"That president's name was Theodore Roosevelt. And today Theodore Roosevelt would be ashamed to be a Republican."
Said Kerry: "It is time we once again had a government of laws and not of lawbreakers."
And if we had a media with an ounce of honesty, this would be on the front pages this week not hidden in a forgotten archive!
And yet he'll stand and grin with the Clintoons.
I wonder if during the Clinton regime Kerry called it a period of moral purity and enlightenment?
Great find...........we need to catalogue this bile, for posterity to show the stark contrast between what most of us remember Ronald Reagan as (a kind and decent man) and the putrid crud these dimwits have projectile vomited at the unsuspecting public, for so long!!
We need to show that history, once again, has proven him and his effin' party associates, WRONG!!!
John F'n...what a POS.
Um, this is on tape somewhere. Has to be. Let's poke around on the web and maybe this thing will turn up digitally.
The libs and the networks wonder why people don't trust them anymore, when they supported and revered a degenerate like Billy Blythe Clinton, and treated a wonderful man like Ronald Reagan with nothing but contempt. Moral darkness, indeed.
Isn't it amazing, that with a public record stretching three decades, the press has reported almost nothing about John Kerry's history?
Why the lack of curiosity, I wonder?
Don't worry, I will be reporting it here.
It's always amusing when somebody tries to speak for another person, especially when that other person is dead. Frankly, I find it impossible to imagine that outdoorsman and "Rough Rider" Teddy Roosevelt would ever take John Kerry's position on abortion, feminism and homosexual pervert's "rights"; let alone gun control, pacifism and a free ride for illegal aliens. Were "Teddy" Roosevelt alive today he's be labeled a 'radical right-wing conservative' by Kerry and his liberal ilk.
"It is time we once again had a government of laws and not of lawbreakers."
I'm confused....is he talking about Reagan or the Clintons? Oh, that's right, the Clintons and their lies about files, BJs, property, and a host of other things had not yet appeared on the public scene. I guess when I hear someone talking about the presidency and lies in the same sentence, Slick Willy just instantly comes to mind.
Now this can't be true, Kerry just went to California to spit on, oops, pray over on his casket.
Kerry and his idiot fellow travelers think we can't remember what asses they've been for the last 25 to 50 years. Screw em, one and all.
Email the quote from this article to everybody in the media you have an email address for. Lets get this one into the media while they are still covering Reagan.
bump.
BUMP!!!
Kerry=Moral Darkness placemarker.
I love when Democrats put words into the mouths of dead Republicans...
