Its hard to know what to think of Morris.

I do. I don't trust me. Seems he must have gotten a raise at FOX. He is a wh*re. If CNN would give him a larger contract he'd be there in a second singing Kerry praises.

Wish Morris's first analysis was the uppper half of Drudge. . .

I thought it was an incredible speech that surely gave sharper contrast to the turkey-like Kerry shortly after; who looked even more cartoonish in his ramblings and with his inappropriate timing of his appearance.

Was more surprised by the commentating - even on Fox - where, for whatever reason; seemed unable to grasp just how 'great' GW's speech was; and just how great a leader we have in fact, in our midst.

Wondered if Brit Hume had taken allergy medicine or what. . .

"Before he spoke, supporting Bush was a duty one owed to the fallen. Now, it is an honor."

I love that line! Now it's my tagline.

It was obvious in this convention with the cream of the crop minorities in attendance that Republicans appeal to the energetic and patriotic of all races. We do not look at black and brown groups of vote fodder but welcome every individual who has something to offer to this country, no matter their skin color. That's the way it is supposed to be in America.
As for the President's speech, if he had not devoted a good part of it to future plans, the media would have faulted him on that too. But the speech soared when he spoke of liberty, and isn't that the way we want it to be?

"He combined dignity and simplicity."

Yes, and elegance and sophistication. This is George Bush.

The elegance and sophistication of his dignity and simplicity are lost on the convoluted, hypernuanced pseudosophisticates of Europe and Democrat America. President Bush is to them as the simple, dignified, elegant, and sophisticated citizens of Athens of the Age of Pericles are to the decadent Romans of the failing and falling Empire.

That is great news. I still think Zell Miller's speech that was a reach to Reagan Democrats from a blue dog democrat may have really turned the tide. Especially after Arnie and Rudy's great speeches.

"For what it's worth, I think he's right. (Gen. 12 - "I will bless you so that through you all nations will be blessed.")"


So very true no nation in all of recorded history has been as blessed as this nation.

"Does anybody know who Peggy Noonan is working for this year -"

Was sure I heard Peggy as well; and I do believe she has been on board with GW for the past few months.

She resonates beautifully on the 'Repub plane' ;^).

Peggy is back on the Bush team. I'm sure she had a hand in that speech, especially the end. And was she the one that came up with "the soft bigotry of low expectations?" It was good to hear that one pulled out again.

I'm so tired of Morris. I think he's a know-it-all-know-nothing who changes his opinions like a hysterical woman. And like a stopped clock, he's right twice a day.

Bush has always spoken to our souls, it's just taken longer for some souls to hear it.

I don't think Peggy came up with the soft bigotry line, because Bush has been using that for years, and I don't recall her leaving the newspaper and tv gigs in 2000. He definitely used that phrase then (maybe even here in Texas) because I've always liked it.

Just because he does this ---> doesn't mean you can't trust him.

The speech was clocked to be under 40 minutes. But when you are interrupted 108 times for applause (WOW!), it is bound to be a bit longer than planned.

Here's an e-mail I just received after W's speech:

"I just spoke to two friends in FL. Both Dem. These dem are voting W."

Good to hear! I know of several VERY LIBERAL people that say they are voting Bush because although they don't agree with him on a lot of social issues, they trust him with our national security. One person told me "With Bush, at least we know where he stands on the issues. Kerry is too unpredictable and wishywashy".

I too believe I heard Peggy in the "heart by heart" line, and elsewhere. It was the speech that he needed, and every bell is ringing.
