Great Speeches

A great night at the convention. The speeches by George Bush, Fred Thompson and Joe Lieberman were spot on. Fred’s speech was so energetic and had so many memorable lines you are left wondering where this was during the primary. As far as Joe Lieberman, he may have just committed political suicide in order to put his country’s welfare over his party affiliation. That is inspiring.
A last thing, it is just absolutely amazing how far MSNBC has tilted. There isn’t even an attempt to appear judicial and fair in their reporting. I believe it was Ron Allen interviewing Newt on the floor after the speeches concluded. Of course he took a shot at Gov. Palin inferring she was too inexperienced. Newt quickly shot this down, listing all of her accomplishments and qualifications. He then asked Allen to explain why Obama was ready to lead and Allen just stuttered, said he wouldn’t argue the case and sent the feed back to Olberman. What a coward, if you are gonna take a shot at somebody you better be able to argue your case as well. Andrea Mitchell wasn’t going to be outdone when interviewing Lieberman after his address. Visibly peeved about Lieberman’s speech she spent nearly the entire time continually bashing Palin. As I continued to check their coverage as the night went on they continually quoted the Washington Post, a known liberal publication second only to the New York Times, in accusing McCain of picking his Vice President nominee Sarah Palin out of a hat. They claim he just picked her at the last minute without doing any research just because she was a woman and that this clearly shows he has bad judgment. Am I really supposed to believe that McCain in picking a Vice President didn’t do any research on her? Come on.
Liberals claim to be the party for strong woman with equal opportunity and a fair shake. But now it is clear, they only support woman if they are democrats. If you are a Republican woman you deserve no such rights. Instead you are just an itty bitty woman who doesn’t deserve what she has earned. Disgusting.
