Listening to Kerry speech at AL convention live
9/1/04 | Self

Posted on 09/01/2004 8:59:28 AM PDT by Blood of Tyrants

Kerry on local radio at the American Legion convention in Nashville.

He starts off by buying John Glenn's support by promising him another trip into space.

Opening joke about him having a problem keeping his speech under 10 minutes falls absolutely flat.

Don't you know that Kerry has a right to privacy about his military and medical records? /sarcasm off

I wondered about that licking of his lips -- someone said that drug users do it. I don't know it that is true and I'm not implying that Kerry is using.

Everyone can ask for and receive an absentee ballot. You don't have to use it, but, it's a safeguard just in case you can't make it to the polls.

Not so here -- if they mail you an Absentee Ballot, you're not allowed to vote at the polls. You can drop your AB at the county courthouse, though. Probably true most places.

The former residents of the whitehouse knew he was toast before they encouraged the dnc to get rid of dean and come up with kerry. They want to make sure ole broadbeam has her chance to once again destroy the integrety of the United States, make sure we have socialized medicine, control the number and kind of doctors allowed in medical school, fill the various departments of our government with boy/girls and girl/boys, deplete true judicial employees in our Justice Department, set up her personal police force. I know I'm exagerating somewhat, but it's not far off. Remember what she tried the first year x42 was in office.

I think a body language person would tell you it was a sign of great discomfort. He had to have known that they would hate just about anything he said.

Once in a while the camera slipped back. It's a full house. But from the applause you'd think he was trapped in an elevator or something.

Thanks! I didn't see the crowd, but I figured it would be big. Vets can get pretty rowdy, so they obviously were disgusted with Kerry. I can't believe he's so stupid to try to talk to them after he received such a poor reception at the last veteran's group he spoke to. Kerry seems to be the only one who doesn't remember how he treated them after the Viet Nam war. They sure didn't forget.

The second guy from the right looks kinda like Will Farrell

Does anyone know the identity of the guys on the cover of Kerry's book?

I'd certainly like to hear from them today. If they are still anti-war and bitter, it hurts Kerry. If they regret their actions, it still hurts Kerry.

Win/Win

ATTENTION

In Maryland, if you ask for an absentee ballot, your name will not appear on the voters' list books at the precinct, and you will have to fill in a 'provisional' ballot, which is a hassle.

Thanks. I should have realized it's not going to be the same in all states.

I checked again with out state RNC, and here in Arizona you are able to vote that day even if you had requested an absentee ballot.

Everyone should check their state voting regulations. Sorry for the confusion.

He has been in the Senate 20 Years , what has he done or tried to do for Vets other than testify against them before Congress.

Is a supporter without connections to a vet welcome? My husband and I would love to be there.

You should make this idea into a vanity post. It is too good an idea to be buried as the 200+ post in a long thread.
