President Bush is about to speak to our troops.
You can tell. These guys love him! WOW!
I love that picture! Haven't seen it in ages.
Perfect.
LOL
Actually, I think that VP Cheney gave the press that bitchslap when he said "the press is often lazy"
Good for McCain, good for the President, good for the VP, good that our side is starting to grow a pair!
I checked CNN - they immediately went to "Clintonmania"...and how his book is already #1 and how a million people are wanting to talk to him and ask questions and how is book is already outselling hillary's by 7 to 1. The media makes me soooooooooo ill.
It was probably punishable by death...
There evidently is not a publishing house running them off in huge numbers, it at all.
For sure!!!
Well, Fox News went to a stand-off in Texas instead of analyzing the President's speech. I guess we will get plenty of that throughout the day........
The transcript is posted in its entirety here on FR. I didn't see the inteview but read it.
The New York Times will be out to bring him down--Big Time.
Pray for him, but I have no doubt he will win that battle.
Hey, thanks. We didn't know McCain and Prez Bush was going to be on. We ran to the TV and caught the last moments of McCain introducing Prez Bush. They both did one fantastic job! Thanks for the heads up!!!
How do you get those pictures so fast? Is your TV hooked up to the PC??? That's excellent!
I shouldn't have laughed--I guess two police officers were shot and wounded. Thank goodness, nobody killed--and hopefully nobody will be.
Some person in a blue van, evidently.
Did anybody cut away? I had MSNBC on for the speech and they carried the whole thing. I only surfed after GWB finished speaking and that's how I saw the Fox Walmart story. I do believe CNN carried the whole thing, too.
"President Bush: Therapy's not gonna work."
LOL, did he say that?!
Cheney are Secretary of State, Powell to go to Baghdad as ambassador/generalissimo, reporting directly to Bush. Yeah,I know it is not going to happen. Too wild. But talk about drama!
That is good news..I stayed on Fox..They carried it all.
This is a great thread.
John McCain did a great job of introducing President Bush and clears the air re WMDs.
Please read as a news item to make conservatives for GW feel good.
I will be sending this to my friends and relatives who are working and could not see this.
Please ping your friends on FR republic so they can share this great event in Washington.
I guess after this, John McCain will not be al Querry's #1 choice for VP anymore.
got the box thanx for the extra cookbook
LOL, did he say that?!
You'll note many of us transcribed it. Yes--he said it!
Fox now analyzing.
"Event designed to kill Mcain-Kerry speculation"
Running excerpts.
This was a PIVOTAL speech! I am one Bush volunteer who was a little depressed over Kerry's seeming momentum, especially with his fake military coalition announcements and Teresa's BS Cleland-as-victim theme, but this has rejuvinated me and will sustain me in the fight!!!
I would really like him to speak about what the Iraqi people had to endure though. I really believe that it would help to take a group of brave and fantastic soldiers to a new level of committment. --Make it even more real for these troops. After a few definite examples of how awful it was. I know he mentioned children being beaten in front of their parents, but instead say,
"Imagine how awful it would feel if the leader of your country took YOUR child and because YOU wouldn't do _________, YOUR CHILD got ___________. Then, a couple more examples, using family members...if YOUR MOM were taken away from YOU and ___________." Then say, these people are scared and frightened because they've endured this type of behavior from their evil dictator for 30 years!!! ---Yet, they are fighting back, they are saying NO!!! We need to help them fight back! We need to shout NO with them! THAT's why you're here. THAT's why you are such special, decent men and women. THAT's why AMERICA is so great!!!!"
Okay, ....a little something like that ;-)
I can hardly wait for Karen Hughes to be back in August -- she'll make sure words with this "connection" happen in W's speeches again!
P.S. Karen - if you are reading this - I was the one that gave you that letter in La Jolla at your book signing! YOU GO GIRL!
---HELPING W WIN 4 MORE FOR THE GIPPER!!!
I have to find the thread about Putin/Iraq/attack on U.S.
Wolf Blitzer just said: "My antenna are up" on this story, and he noted that Putin just attended the G-8 and spoke with GWB there.
Could it be that Blitzer was implying they "cooked up" that story then? I think that's what he was implying...
