[Leprechan29]

1. "or try to anyway"

beat me to the line. Then again you were the one who posted

[w4rma]

2. They *never* cover Sen. Kerry's speeches.

And they sure don't give much (positive, especially) advertisement beforehand when they cover what little they cover of Kerry's speeches.

[Tellurian]

3. Bush has suffered a big blow to his political base of support..

2/3 of the Baptists Alliance have LEFT him..

The only remaining support Bush has is the Southern Baptists.

[bluedog]

4. Max Cleland to Be Here Air Criticisms.......LOL

Advance Criticism

Bush's visit today is billed as official business by the White House, not paid for by his campaign, and the public will not be invited.

The president will arrive about 10:30 a.m. to address the troops and get the briefing at headquarters for the command directing military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. He will depart at 1 p.m.

Anticipating his arrival, former Georgia Sen. Max Cleland and other veterans for Kerry converged on Tampa to air some criticisms Tuesday.

Cleland, who was targeted and defeated by the GOP in 2002, charged that Bush and Cheney have overextended the military and are cutting veteran benefits.

``Although Iraq was not an imminent threat, they built it up to be,'' he said. ``It's Bush's war of choice.''

Joining Cleland at La Teresita restaurant was Bill McBride, the Democratic candidate for Florida governor two years ago and a fellow veteran of the Vietnam War.

``John Kerry has served his country with distinction since volunteering for duty in Vietnam knows what it means to be on the front lines,'' McBride said, drawing the not-so-veiled distinction with Bush's National Guard service during the same era.

Such Democratic criticism - whether on war, security or the economy - won't work, said Reed Dickens, a Bush spokesman. ``Their pessimism makes them look extremely disconnected from reality.''

5. omg, That is rich isn't it?!?

"Their pessimism makes them look extremely disconnected from reality.''

Once again the repukes are describing themselves while critisizing the Dems. Hey Mr. Dickens, have you seen that Iraqi Poll the CPA tried to hide from the US public? Talk about your disconnect... :crazy:

[Cat Atomic]

6. Someone should ask Bush why he only speaks to

paid audiences. The WH Press Corps, the military... that's about it for Bush.

[bluedog]

11. the base is

a fenced in base.guards all over and the soldiers couldn't get out if they tried....talk about "caged".....these men are in one...as they have no choice to listen to him or do the soldiers in Iraq or Afghanistan

[leftchick]

7. Update from MSRNC....

It is to be a "rally the troops" speech while giving updates on all of the terrific progress in Iraq! I can't wait!

Hey, I'm also playing with my kids, I can't devote 100% of my beautiful mind to this shit.

[mopaul]

hypnosis and jingoism are just so effective

[hatrack]

35. Please, please tell me - I've GOT to know . . . .

Has he used the word "freedom" yet????

[goclark]

37. LOL Wallpaper People

It is so funny to see the wallpaper that stands behind the idiot.

I especially like "The Lip Biter" behind Chimp's left shoulder. His eyes are darting back and forth and you can tell he is NOT into this at all. His claps are very soft.

I could swear that the Asian American soldier over his right shoulder has been Chimp's wall paper before. He acts like he doesn't understand what the hell Chimp is saying(or trying to say.

The biggest cheer was for the Chimp's remarks about the Olympic Games in Greece. They were thrilled, as most would be, to know that more countries will be included.

Now the lip biter is searching the audience for someone that thinks this is crazy. It looks like he has made eye contact with some others.

Did I hear Chimp Boy mention Rush? I think he called his name in some stupid way.

It also looks like Chimp Boy's lips are getting more narrow. They are probably very tired from all the lies that have to come out of his mouth.

The gushy CNN reporter said that Chimp received a standing ovation-she was sooo happy to report that lie. First of all,most appeared to be standing already. IMO he did NOT receive a real standing ovation. Many did not move their bodies. Many of their faces were blank stares.

There were some cheer leaders in the back, high up on some bleachers. That group was really cheering but the rest were politely clapping, in my opinion. They were being held captives by our government which provides their pay checks.

Oh please..send us a REAL PRESIDENT and put this Chimp in the Crawford Zoo.

[Tracer]

38. Ya know, they could save a whole lot of dough ...

... if they just sent a life-sized cardboard cutout and a tape recorder to these "events", instead of sending the Turd-In-Chief.

[maynard]

39. 10,000 in attendance in the hangar?

Please someone confirm that the commentator (MSNBC) said that there were 10,000 in attendance in the hangar? I work in an arena that holds 15,000/14,000 people. The inside of a hangar is not even close to the size of an arena. One more lie for the Bush resume.
