Kerry reception at Guard convention "icy."

PBS "News" | vanity

[Jerry W. Howard]

Just watched the account on PBS news of the Kerry Guard convention speech. They juxtaposed about 3 minutes of Bush's speech a couple of days ago with 3 minutes of Kerry's speech today. Although they made no verbal comment, the difference was so devastating for Kerry that I am amazed they showed it! (Bush was recieved warmly, smiling faces, appropriate applause, etc.) Kerry on the other hand delivered his defeatist screed to stonefaced silence. The camera panned at times to a few listeners walking out, a few boo's and NOT A SINGLE CLAP BY ANYONE IN THE CROWD! Kerry paused as if waiting for applause a few times, but NOTHING! I was dumfounded that they showed this on PBS!

Did anyone get another view?

But it sounded like he was getting a lot of applause in the audience, and a few whistles and cheers toward the back. I was a bit surprised, but I do realize there may have been some in there who like him, no matter what he might have done, or does now.

You are aware that there are Kerry staffers in the audience.

Kerry is a looser; a traitorous looser; a Communist-Loving traitorous looser; a Veteran back-stabing Communist-Loving traitorous looser; a lying Veteran back-stabing Communist-Loving traitorous looser, .


I take it you aint voting for the dishonorable JFK.

He uses more words to say so little that I may fall on my face here at the keyboard.

[gortklattu]

OK, everybody is applauding him.....all fifty

[LibFreeOrDie]

Sounds like he's delivering the eulogy for his own campaign...

Heck when I was in NAM, my momma asked me when I was coming home. I said when my thirteen months were over unless I got dinged. I wanted to go home! So did everyone else.

Hehehehe!!!
Post that on MoveOn - maybe some will actually do it!

"They tell me it is Kerry. I am seeing Dukakis."

Kerry makes Dukakis seem like Mr. Charisma.

What is it with this guy and the selective memory of not voting to fund the troops? The Hell?

[arasina]

What did he just say that got a more or less healthy applause? I habitually tune out his words so I missed it.

[cajungirl]

they aren't getting paycheck in time. My word. They don't have body armor. He is trying to appeal to the griper, the complainer, the perpetually angry people. Appealing to the worse inthem. And promising benefits. What a total pitiful excuse of a man.

My dog is a lot more fun to watch!

[TC Rider]

Now he is telling them they are shortchanged,,

LOL, he's telling the people who run the Guard, what they're doing wrong.

[gortklattu]

It isn't applause. It's the sound of the Kerry staffers slapping the sleepers awake...

[Lovergirl]

Wouldn't you thimk he would have chapped lips by now? LOL

[arasina]

wonder if Teraysa is there to perk him up after the speech - I wonder how she handles the common people rejecting her husband.

She tells them they're idiots and to shove it, of course.

[Bahbah]

You captured that perfectly.

The only thing Clark ever did was bomb the Chinese embassy by mistake - He didn't have the guts to put any troops on the ground - that girlyman

No, he didn't and there is never any mention of the damage done, they instead brag about our lack of losses. Somehow that has always struck me as arrogant.
