Take that back... John Lewis is beholden to no one.. He is stubborn and stupid... You can depend on him being himself and is true to his beliefs. John is good to his word which makes him an honorable man. Like him or not.

"Democratic Rep. John Lewis, who called the senator's decision "a shame and a disgrace."

Yet - JumpinJimJeffords is hailed as a courageous man of convictions. John McCain gets described as a maverick and a bold politician yet Zell gets tagged as though something happened to him because he does not meet the RAT definition of independent.

You can bet the mortgage that the alphabet networks wont show this speech when covering the convention.

[Delphinium]

Well, I shouldn't be complaining about those Rino's when its such good news about Zell Miller.

I just heard both of them bad mouthing Bush and it offended me.

[Kaslin]

Why?

[Delphinium]

Why?

I hate to see anyone who does not stand for Republican principles become a big star in the party.

[Wyatt's Torch]

How's this:

John Lewis is a consistently stupid, race-baiting, whore of a politician who remains true to his stubborn and racially divisive beliefs.

Better?

;-)

[blanknoone]

Is this the kind of bipartisanship the Dems are searching desperately for with McCain?

THAT is the winning point of the day for me!! Kudos!

Sure wish we could convince him to switch parties. Goodness knows, Sean Hannity tries to get him to do it anytime he has him on the show! I would really love to see Miller as the vice presidential candidate (Republican)!

[Tamzee]

Thank you, Zell...

[zbigreddogz]

This has to be the most obviously slanted report I've ever seen, but oh well. It'll be great to have Zell at the convention.

[Urbane_Guerilla]

I cant tell you what a big kick I get out of that "Seal" Makes me laugh every time.

[zbigreddogz]

Lincoln Chaffe won't say if he supports Bush or not. So take that for what it's worth.

[Republican Wildcat]

Excellent. Any chance Ed Koch could also speak?

[ILuvW]

I'll be so tickled if Zell gets a standing ovation when he comes up to the podium to speak. He's quite a guy!

Drop the regionalism, pal.
There are many Conservatives, who are intelligent enough to know pragmatism puts more candidates in office than principles. Principles aren't destination, they are moral guidelines.
There are many Conservatives who understand the status quo is determined by which party is in control. The only reason the media can portray conservatives as "out of the mainstream" sucessfully is if citizens recognize a laissez-faire atmosphere. When citizens realize they have a president with honor and character, his opponents are put into panic.
Before you open your mouth, check the facts. NJ is in in play for Bush this election season, last time around Gore took it 56 to 38, if I'm not mistaken. Just a little anecdotal for you, boy-o, here in NJ, seen a lot of Bush/Cheney on bumpers. Don't recall seeing a Kerry, although I've seen a Nader or two.
Next time, don't pass up your meds!

(1) Spare me the ad hominem silliness. It's undignified.

(2) I live in New Jersey, genius.

(3) It's a pretty well known fact that the NJ Republican party, like the Republican parties of NY, CT, MA, RI, ME, etc. are RINO organizations that rarely support real conservatives.

Do I have to remind you, O New Jersey expert, that our state Republican organization did the best they could to destroy Bret Schundler's candidacy?

There are plenty of NJ RINOs elected officials who would prefer to see Kerry in the WH.

1. -
2. Excuse me for not checking your profile. I do apologize.
3. It's a pretty well known fact, union leaders rarely support the best candidate for the rank and file members. I think most of the politically astute differ from the leadership.
4. I really didn't care too much for Schundler, I did however believe the leadership of the NJ GOP and the candidate should have been stripped naked, put into dresses, wigs, and high-heels and prodded around the Trenton State compound then tossed into the Delaware.
On your final point, I think it's time for these people to be exposed. I also believe its time to consider starting a NJ FReeper Chapter. There have been many NJ related issues that could have been addressed. I may have only be here a short time but I've noticed NJ is playing a secondary role to NY. I understand national events are more focused and take place there but the NJ government is running roughshod here.

[Hi Heels]

Doggone it!! I FLEW across the internet to post this thing and you beat me.

Welp. All we can do is completely take over the Democratic party. It's obvious they can't run it. You can hear it implode like pine trees in a forest fire. Crack. Pop. Snap.
