Look at the speaches that Cheney and Bush gave for Regan. They have hit stride, and the professionals are handling it. They don't have to do a lot to look a whole lot better than John&John. Just a little taste, a little class, a little restraint, and a little substance and it is theirs.

[Mo1]

John Edwards proposals will not lift the poor, they will simply lessen the value of personal responsibility.

Exactly and they be more dependent on the government

It's the Democrat version of Welfare ...

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

Sharpton's act was much funnier when he used to rant, scream, wave his arms around, and babble about white policemen gang-raping Tawana Brawley. He used to make the Top Ten List on David Letterman.

[Joe_October]

No I did not. But I heard hour after hour of the rats giving their talking points and spinning their answers.

They used to never let the junk get by them.

Beating up idiot girl doesn't impress me.

[Darlin']

Well, I appreciate what you're saying and I can honestly say that I hope I'm wrong and that you're right. :)

[lavrenti]

Hell yeah the Dems seem to nominate mentally distressed types to run the country. It is also reflected in the people they chose to run their campaigns.

Hope is on the way? Not only is it a rip-off from the 2000 Bush campaign, it also implies an excuse for failure.

What is this concept of "hope"? It is not an end to itself, certainly. Hope is a form of desire, a wish, a prayer spoken but yet unfulfilled. "Hope is on the way" means that if these assclowns are elected we can all look to them a make a little wish. That's it. It implies nothing more than an opportunity for people to lay on whatever desire or dream fragment they want, but no guarantee, promise or contractual agreement that any of these "hopes" are fulfilled.

It is the dumbest slogan ever created, written by morons. This promises nothing but an opportunity to express a feeling--nothing more. Also, it doesn't take much for a retort.

"Expressing hope means nothing without action--I assure you the latter." Now, that's the killer line to defeat that lukewarm bromide.

OMG-Greta wants to ask the woman from TN why we didn't go for Gore last time. The woman thinks TN will go for Kerry this time..

[Joe_October]

When I see those Bull Sh*t shirts I wonder if they would post shirts that said,

"Vote for Kerry because French Penis doesn't taste that bad"

would be allowed. I mean, isn't that his policy. We need the French who can't protect themselves to help protect us.

I apologize if my comments offend but isn't that the Kerry policy?

[JustaCowgirl]

I have no choice and will not give the rats satisfaction but I would be a much happier Fox viewer if they would return to their more balanced positions.

I agree. Seems like the last month or so, they've been pandering to the libs. I used to like ED Hill, now I find her unwatchable. Maybe that's why Tony Snow went radio, he couldn't stand it.

[Ichneumon]

I keep hearing the "hope is on the way" and I can only think of Ron Popeel saying "set it and forget it".

He sounded even more like Ron Popiel with his repeated, "...it doesn't have to be that way" mantra.

[Barlowmaker]

The Democrats are desperate to package their ossifying ideology into young vessels. It's pathetic.

Zell Miller delivered the best moment of the night. He chopped Alan Colmes into Iron Chef precision chunks with his truthful statement that the Party of American hope, faith, strength and working families is the Republican Party.

Zell is going to be DEVESTATING in the New York Convention. Every blue collar guy and catholic woman in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, MN Iron Range, Iowa and New Jersey are going to listen to Zell and go ... "HELL NO I'm not part of the party of gay marraige, abortion, gun grabbing and racial preference."

Zell's speech will be the "point, game, set, match" of this election. Trade unionist Americans in the rust belt have nothing in common with the 2004 Democrat Party, and they're going to figure it out during Zell Miller's speech.

[Darlin']

Did the woman answer Greta's question about Gore ?

[pnz1]

Are any stars scheduled to be at the Republican convention?

[lainie]

Image of the entire week. Hands down.

[pnz1]

She said something like people in TN voted for Bush with high expectations of what he would do (but hasn't done). She thinks TN will go for Kerry this time..

[bray]

Of course he had to throw out the RACE CARD!! Rich against the poor, Whites against the Blacks and Old Against the Young. The Rat way to Unite (DIVIDE) America!!

Pray for W and Our Troops

[NYC GOP Chick]

Liberalism is a form of mental illness, no?

[streetpreacher]

Are any stars scheduled to be at the Republican convention?

Yeah, Arnold and Rudy to name a few.

[smonk]

as long as there are no limits to the tastelessness of our comments about Liz, here goes: do you think that poor little john had to tack a playoy centerfold to the headboard to conceive those last two kids?

[pnz1]

I know, it's a shallow question. But I was just wondering..
