I am always coming up with a better way to explain something in a conversation I have had....after I get home and get a minute to put my thoughts and facts together. Even Rush has said when he goes on TV programs, he kicks himself when he gets home for not have put out the better answer he knew but did not come to him in the very short time provided.
I listened to parts of it on the radio and was encouraged by a few questions (not like the night Jim Lehrer came out shilling for the DNC)...The President was much more upbeat and it helped contrast the 2 candidates. Bush made his points, repeated them and drove them home...Kerry really acted the arrogant snob especially in 2 separate questions on morality: the stem cell and the abortion question. His first response was to state he respected their beliefs, but them seem to trample them down, belittling morals and faith as if only for the simple-minded.
History will NOT parse over the questions of WMD possession down the road as it will address whether freeing Iraq from a brutal dictator was a positive transformation for the Iraqi people and a more secure region...Shouldn't THAT really be the TARGET point for discussion? I did feel that the questions were broad, straightforward, and generally, well thought out and chosen...
