AFTER ZEL MILLER'S SPEECH AT THE CONVENTION, HE HAD SEVERAL INTERVIEWS. ONE OF THESE WAS WITH CHRIS MATTHEWS HOST OF MSNBC'S "HARDBALL". MR. MILLER HAD STATED IN HIS SPEECH THAT JOHN KERRY WOULD USE "SPITBALLS" AS WEAPONS IN THE "WAR ON TERROR". MR. MATTHEWS QUESTIONED MILLER'S USE OF THE TERM AND ASKED MR. MILLER IF HE TRULY BELIEVED MR. KERRY WOULD USE "SPITBALLS" AS WEAPONS.
MR. MILLER INFORMED MR. MATTHEWS THAT HE WAS USING A METAPHOR. FURTHER QUESTIONING AND SOFT PROBING OF MR. MILLER'S SPEECH RESULTED IN AN UNBELIEVABLY ANGRY RANT BY MR. MILLER. MR. MILLER WENT TO THE POINT OF SAYING HE WISHED DUELLING WAS STILL LEGAL SO HE COULD CHALLENGE MR. MATTHEWS TO A DUEL AND - BY UINDENIABLE IMPLICATION - DO HIS BEST TO KILL MR. MATTHEWS.
IS THIS ONE OF THE FUNDAMENTAL FIBERS OF THE CORE OF THE CURRENT REPUBLICAN PARTY? WHEN PUSH COMES TO SHOVE, DOES THE REPUBLICAN PARTY BELIEVE THAT CHALLENGES THEY DO NOT LIKE CAN BE STOPPED BY KILLING THE CHALLENGERS? ZEL MILLER EXPRESSED WITH UNDENIABLE CLARITY THE PENALTY HE THOUGHT WOULD BE APPROPRIATE FOR MR. MATTHEWS WHEN HE, IN EFFECT, SAID HE WISHED HE COULD SHOOT HIM.
SUCH SELF-RIGHTEOUS POMPOSITY IS ALWAYS ONE OF THE PRIMARY ARTERIES DRIVING THE HEART OF ALL DICTITORIAL REGIMES. NEVER OPEN TO REVIEW, CRITISM, OR QUESTIONING BY ANY - EVER; TO DO SO IS TO INVITE DEATH. WHAT HAPPENED HERE? ARE MR. MILLER'S VIEWS THE VIEWS OF THE MAJORITY OF ALL REPUBLICANS? IS MR. MILLER ON THE FRINGE? ARE THE CORE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY HAMMERING HOME A SENS OF "PATRIOTIC" NATIONALISM SO STRONG THAT IT CANNOT BEAR SCRUTINY OR REVIEW? THE DAY OUR GOVERNMENT AND POLITICAL PARTIES CANNOT AFFORD OPEN QUESTIONING BY THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY IS THE DAY DEMOCRACY DIES. IS THIS THE DIRECTION WE WANT TO GO? IS THIS THE DIRECTION THE CORE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY ARE LEADING US? I WOULD THINK NOT; HOWEVER, AFTER LISTENING TO THE SEETHING ANGER AND BLATHERING RAGE OF MR. MILLER I MUST CONFESS I AM CONCERNED. CONCERNED NOT ONLY FOR MYSELF, BUT CONCERNED FOR AMERICANS, AMERICA, AND THE REST OF THE MEMBERS OF THE WORLD COMMUNITY.
Zell Miller spoke with courage and honesty.
Those who are "offended" are either a) refusing to hear the truth about the fall of the once great democrat party or b) unpatriotic (Yep - I said it!)
Ah, he shoulda clocked him like that Astronaut did with a "Moon program was a hoax" whacko.
HERE! TAKE SOME OF MINE!

Allow us to clarify our stance: we listen to INTELLEGENT review, criticism , and questioning.
Zell made a point, Mr. Hardball missed it. Zell delivered it in a sarcastic manner to drive the point home. Matthews then becomes a standing-ovation moron, and Miller gets peeved. (Just like you did when you posted your "1 Thesis" about whats wrong with the Republican party.)
BTW Zell Miller (D)
I know you will never come back to try to defend yourself, you're to big a liberal coward. But for you DUmmies reading this: We got your number, it came across loud and clear (thanks to either a Caps Lock, or by his rant, a really strong Shift Key finger).
When will Dems learn? They can't even provide us with a reason to listen to them, let alone vote for their guy. All they have is attacking character, and doing a poor job at that I might add.
(Hark, do I hear thundering paws in the distance?)
Benzodiazepine withdrawl must be a real b**ch!
ZEL MILLER EXHIBITS BEHAVIOR WORTHY OF NOTE
(ZOT!!! REPUBLICANS STOLE MY LOWERCASE LETTERS). You have just been ZOTTED by Zell Miller !!
He's dead, Jim.

Using all caps is a sign of laziness. Why don't you exercise you brain a little more often. And don't forget your finger.
