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

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?

Bush got at least 3 standing ovations, plus MANY applause interruptions during his speech.

I was dumfounded that they showed this on PBS! Looks like the folks at PBS are more concerned with their funding than they are in getting Kerry elected.

Now I want to see the reception that Kerry got! Not only that, I can't wait to compare the postive message of the President compared to Kerry's negative message.

Did you see the DNC ads following the Bush speech?
Darn, I'm glad I'm not stupid enough to be a democrat

I'm watching the Kerry speech to the NG now. Don't hear any clapping. Must stop chewing potato chips.
Yeah, he was introduced as John Kennedy.
To: ride the whirlwind
