[Dizzy]

I heard that the noob president told the OG president that, the if the thread went into the RealTalk Forum that noone would be responding and the noob pres wants to get more people involved into politics since November is right around the corner.

Some Washington pundits and media big shots are in a frenzy over the selection of a woman who has actually governed rather than just talked a good game on the Sunday talk shows and hit the Washington cocktail circuit. Well, give me a tough Alaskan governor who has taken on the political establishment in the largest state in the union — and won — over the beltway business-as-usual crowd any day of the week.

Let’s be clear … the selection of Gov. Palin has the other side and their friends in the media in a state of panic. She is a courageous, successful, reformer, who is not afraid to take on the establishment.

Sound like anyone else we know?

She has run a municipality and she has run a state.

And I can say without fear of contradiction that she is the only nominee in the history of either party who knows how to properly field dress a moose … with the possible exception of Teddy Roosevelt.

The rest of thompson's speech on McCain was actually really good. Agreed Harold.

Is Thompson a moron? The Largest state in the union? How, by sheer land mass? (Which the Russians are fighting us for?)

Lieberman's RNC Speech Transcript:

Transcript: Lieberman RNC Speech | MonkeyCrash

Every day…Every day across our country, millions of our fellow citizens are facing very big and real problems. They’re worried about their homes and their jobs, their businesses. They’re worried about the outrageous cost of gasoline and health insurance, and they are worried about the threats from our enemies abroad.

But when they look to Washington, all too often they don’t see their leaders coming together to tackle these problems. Instead, they see Democrats and Republicans fighting each other, rather than fighting for the American people.

I don’t have to tell you that we were blessed in this country to have a great generation of founders. And they foresaw the danger of this kind of senseless partisanship.

In fact, our first president, George Washington, in his farewell address, warned that the spirit of party could be the worst enemy of our democracy and enfeeble our government’s ability to do its job.

My friends, I think tonight we can say that President Washington was absolutely right. The truth is, today we are living through his worst nightmare in the capital city that bears his name.

The rest of his speech is garbage though....

whatta cocksucker. talking about "spirit of party" when he's been an opportunist douchebag.

President Bush's Speech:

Transcript: President Bush RNC Speech | MonkeyCrash

My fellow citizens, we live in a dangerous world. And we need a president who understands the lessons of September 11, 2001: that to protect America, we must stay on the offense, stop attacks before they happen, and not wait to be hit again. The man we need is John McCain.

When he takes office next January, John will have an outstanding leader at his side. America will have a strong and principled vice president in the governor of the great state of Alaska, Sarah Palin.

In the time the Oval Office has been in my trust, I have kept near my desk reminders of America’s character — including a painting of a West Texas mountain lit by the morning sun. It reminds me that Americans have always lived on the sunrise side of the mountain. We are a nation that looks to the new day with confidence and optimism. I am optimistic about our future, because I believe in the goodness and wisdom of the American people. I am optimistic because I have faith in freedom’s power to lift up all of God’s children and lead this world to a future of peace.

And I am optimistic about something else: When the debates have ended, and all the ads have run, and it is time to vote, Americans will look closely at the judgment, the experience, and the policies of the candidates, and they will cast their ballots for the McCain-Palin ticket.

His speech wasn't anything special, but I'm biased so...lol...

[TeeJay]

I saw it....I was most disappointed with Lieberman

[Dizzy]

I heard they started the RNC off with a prayer to jesus? Is this true?!?!

[TeeJay]

^I don't recall that happening...I might have not been paying attention though....

[indecentspeech]
