Party on, dudes and dudettes!!!

[COEXERJ145]

I predict that after the President's speech, the talking heads will spend the following hour trashing it. The ones on Fox will be the worst of all.

[sissyjane]

I thought that Gen. Tommy Franks was added to the line-up?
I don't see him listed.

SPOKANE AND EASTERN WASHINGTON FREEPERS:

You are invited to a Convention Watch Party for the President at GOP Victory 2004 HQ (202 W. Riverside Ave.) at 6 pm, to watch the President give his acceptance speech.

Good morning. How are you today? Glad to see this thread. Wasn't last night great? I am listening to Rush and he played parts of Zell's speech. Can't wait to hear President Bush's speech tonight.

[prairiebreeze]

bump for hopefully later participation, especially on slow dialup

[gopwinsin04]

Can we possibly top last night with Bush in the round?

[Jaysun]

Zell reminded me of a Preacher I once had. He didn't even crack a smile after making his "spit balls" and "bowl of mush" comments. He also didn't move around a lot. He just stood there with his hands on the podium and let it fly. He was mad as hell and I loved it.

I can't wait to see the President tonight.

[GraniteStateConservative]

I thought they were going to showcase Mel Martinez tonight.

Pledge of Allegiance
Mary Lou Retton and Kerri Strug

Interesting.

Mary Lou I would expect. Don't hear much from Kerri Strug. Glad to see she's a Republican. She's from here in Tucson!

[tapatio]

Good afternoon everyone,what a night last night was!

[cyncooper]

A short while ago President Bush was in the Convention Hall getting the lay of the land.

He looked terrific. Dark suit with flag pin, Laura wearing a very nice red suit (I'm sure they'll both change for the evening)

Karen Hughes was with President Bush going over the stage and such. Then some men with FDNY hats on got their pictures taken with President Bush.

What was interesting was for a pretty long time---5 minutes?---President Bush and one of the men were involved in a pretty good conversation.

That segment is over.

The stage is round now.

[lonevoice]

Assuming Pataki comes on at 10 PM EST? Does anyone know how long he's scheduled to speak, and the approximate ETA of President Bush for the acceptance speech?

[Soul Seeker]

Franks should be there, mel martinez is likely to show as well.

[bushfamfan]

I thought LeAnn Womack was performing? I don't see her listed either.

[AnnaZ]

I was watching the Prez prep at MSG on FNC this morning... is it just me, or is W really quite handsome?

 

</mindlessquery>

 

I've been loving the Convention so far, BTW (and you?); love the FNC numbers but CSPAN has become my channel of choice. I hope that the next RNC features Lt. Gov. Michael Steele a little more (prime time) prominently.

[Jewels1091]

Is or is not Tommy Franks going to be on tonight or any military guys???

[Jaysun]

Here's a little something to set the mood. Ray Charles and his rendition of "America the Beautiful"

AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL

[Ciexyz]

[starvingstudent]
