I'm watching this on the BBC, and something just struck me.

Smug little miss BBC is saying '9/11 is being brought up quite a lot in this convention. Why is that?'

I'm thinking...Well HELL WHY WOULDN'T IT.
Why is is WRONG to mention 9/11?
Is it politically incorrect to mention a terrorist horror and cite it as the reason for a president to focus much of his energies in a global fight against Terror?

WHY is that surprising?

You can be DAMN sure Bill Clinton would have been biting his lip and milking 9/11 - even though he might have been able to prevent it.

My stress levels are going up!

Sorry to keep repeating it but:

Don't let the leftists get away with calling our hero Zell a racist.

Remind those leftists that Zell was Clinton's keynote speaker in 2002 at the convention.

He was good, but as Governors go...Arnold and Mitt kicked his butt.

after this week, all bets are off and the liberals are going to unleash HELL ON EARTH.

Who knew George Pataki could send me reeling with speech. After that SLAM at Clinton we are going to see them go nuclear.

Pataki was GREAT!! He started off quietly and calmly, then gradually built it up. He set the ball perfectly for Dubya. Now .. It's Spike Time!!

Governor Pataki had hard acts to follow. I think he did fine. I'm a former upstate NYer.
