How is his speech any different than other passionate speeches made by the
Democrats during the primaries? How is it different than Shapton's speech
at the convention?

You are very willing to ignore the mud slung by democrats, but get very
upset when it is against your guy.

Is Zell Miller lying now or then? Think back to the comments made by
democratic candidates in the primaries and then how they kiss and make up at
the convention. I believe Zell was saying what his party wanted him to say
a few years ago. Today, he is planning to retire, and is speaking what he
believes. You may think he is insane, addled but he was sincere.

As far as your backhanded comment about the right wing in rec.boats, if you
could not see that
"I'm amazed that we don't have some of the usual suspects celebrating his
health
problem and expressing hope that he dies on the operating table." was not a
complement you have allowed yourself to get too overworked concerning the
election and need to take a break.


The only person in rec.boats who wished someone dead was Harry when he said
he wished he had a stroke while making his keynote address.

Gould,
Don't you think the most prolific poster has set the tone for discussions
in
rec.boats?

I think we are each responsible for our own deportment. Calling names
because
"TMPP started it!" is not adult behavior.

You normally discuss issues and not personalities, I like to believe that
most people even though who did not like Clinton's policies wish him no
ill
will.

And didn't I commend our right wing contingent for not jumping on the
"hope he
dies" band wagon? It isn't inconceivable that the same people who have
accused
Bill Clinton of murdering 18-20 people during his presidency would express
some
hope that he, himself, would now die.

What was your problem with his speech?

1. It contradicted statements he has made about John Kerry within the last
couple of years. Was he lying then, or lying now?

2. The accusations were not based on fact. He simply repeated the same
lies
that Kerry has cast specific votes against
all of those individual weapons programs.

3. It represents where our country is going.
If the founding fathers could have seen how their brave experiment in self
government was going to deteriorate into the polarized, hateful mess we
see
today, they would have saved us all a lot of bother and simply crowned
George
Washington king.
