Yeah should be on soon. I'd hit the sisters though. But then again I'd hit everything, shouting to the honour of Kagulem!

I care not for Kerry's borrowed rhetoric. Especially the part where he said we will experience a "new birth of freedom." Just a few minutes ago, he talked about how he wanted to "move America forward." This is the name of a right-wing organization. :hmm: What's the deal with this?"You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won.

Well seriously. Why the hell would you quote the Republican Party founder at the DNC?
The other thing that disturbed me was when he discussed the Berlin Wall, and how great West Berlin was and how horrible East Berlin was. He called the wall a dividing line between Communism and Democracy.
Firstly, that's comparing an economic system to a political system. Secondly, it makes me wonder if he's afraid of praising capitalism...
BTW, if it makes you feel better, I think he will repeal the Patriot Act if he gets the chance."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

Have her vote Nader if she's liberal.

BTW, how could she be swayed by this snoozefest of a speech? It's just a bunch of soundbites cobbled together.
...and he just quoted Lincoln again.

BTW, a new slogan of Kerry's is "Help is on the way!"
But notice that this was a campaign slogan for Cheney in 2000.

Kerry gave a good speech, much better than his norm. Amazing.
I thought he should've trimmed some of it, though.

No. It's just about the best delivery I've ever seen from Kerry.
BTW, a new slogan of Kerry's is "Help is on the way!"

It's not an ideological campaign slogan, why is that strange? Or a problem in any way?"Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before.

It's just funny because although they hate each other, and their bases are completely polarized against each other, they use exactly the same soundbites. Verbatim.

I will double our special forces to conduct terrorist operations. - John Kerry
It was an accident. He corrected himself and meant to say anti-terrorist operations. I'm sure it's gonna get lots of right-wing play though.
Over all it was a good speach delivered by a mediocre speaker at his best performance. He seemed like he was in a hurry to get it over with, but that could have been excitement. When you're doing something that you've built up to your whole life, it always seems like its over too fast (thinking of my recent wedding).
One thing that really iritated me though was his continued quieting of the crowd during his speech. He'd make some point and he'd get a cheer, and he'd try to talk overthem, once four times before he was able to get going. He wasn't prepped on effective use of the crowd, let their cheering sell him. He seemed impatient with them, which is odd, considering that his speech seemed very much tailored not for moderates, but to win the hearts of the Democratic left.
Considering how much they made of no Bush-bashing in the whole rest of the convention, it's almost odd. Unless maybe they didn't want to steal Kerry's thunder. He didn't directly attack Bush, though. He attacked everything Bush's done instead.
Overall, I'd give him a B+.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment
