Kerry reception at Guard convention "icy."
PBS "News" | vanity

Posted on 09/16/2004 5:08:31 PM PDT by 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?

I told you last night that the contrast would be stark.

Completely incompetent. Dems completely have no idea how to address an audience like this.

Kerry is a prime example of a product of the left-wing media. He has never learned any subtleties about human nature. The media has probably won all his campaigns for him. As media becomes more answerable, these Democrats are going to be left in the lurch.

You're a conservative and even though you obviously are not military, you're smart enough to understand. As an older female (ok...old lady! LOL), I understand...and like...and respect...them too. That makes us both smarter than Kerry, the much ballyhooed Yale grad.

Hint to Kerry: You MIGHT have gotten some applause if you had sung The Battle Hymn of the Republic.

You'd have to wake the 'hooker' up first.

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