Only thing that kept me awake were the shifting colors on the TV (something minor is wrong with my sat rcvr, so the colors occasionally shift a little bit... red->pink->orange->red). <BR/><BR/>Oh no... listening to 1280. The Rusty Humphries show just came on (11:06pm CDT). He's time delayed. He's carrying the debate live. It's starting all over again. <BR/><BR/>Funny thing... Brokaw reminds the audience to restrain themselves with no outbursts. Those of us at home have no such restraints. <BR/><BR/>Even tho its bedtime, and this would be a great way to put me to sleep, I don't want this getting into my head subconsiously. I'd rather listen to FM static.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10932601.post-8434435404837695902008-10-07T23:01:00.000-05:002008-10-07T23:01:00.000-05:00well AE I am going to guess that you were disappoi...well AE I am going to guess that you were disappointed by McCain's performance tonight. <BR/><BR/>I've seen folks fight harder to avoid picking up the check at lunch. <BR/><BR/>I hate to say it but things are looking way bleak for McCain and by extension, America.RStar23https://www.blogger.com/profile/03225175664547749205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10932601.post-5518182435825253782008-10-07T21:35:00.000-05:002008-10-07T21:35:00.000-05:00The only fighting tonight was struggling to stay ...The only fighting tonight was struggling to stay conscious and not die of boredom. <BR/><BR/>Did I mention it was B-O-R-I-N-G.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10932601.post-12936023869698284202008-10-07T19:37:00.000-05:002008-10-07T19:37:00.000-05:00At the RNC convention, Sen McCain said "Fight with...At the RNC convention, Sen McCain said "Fight with me. Fight for what's right for our country. Fight for the ideals and character of a free people." In <A HREF="http://portal.gopconvention2008.com/speech/details.aspx?id=84" REL="nofollow">the speech</A> he said he would fight a lot.<BR/><BR/>Especially more fighting at the end:<BR/><I><BR/>I’m going to fight for my cause every day as your President. I’m going to fight to make sure every American has every reason to thank God, as I thank Him: that I’m an American, a proud citizen of the greatest country on earth, and with hard work, strong faith and a little courage, great things are always within our reach. Fight with me. Fight with me. <BR/><BR/>Fight for what’s right for our country. <BR/><BR/>Fight for the ideals and character of a free people. <BR/><BR/>Fight for our children’s future. <BR/><BR/>Fight for justice and opportunity for all. <BR/><BR/>Stand up to defend our country from its enemies. <BR/><BR/>Stand up for each other; for beautiful, blessed, bountiful America. <BR/><BR/>Stand up, stand up, stand up and fight. Nothing is inevitable here. We’re Americans, and we never give up. We never quit. We never hide from history. We make history. <BR/></I><BR/><BR/><BR/>Good words, but does he mean it? Is it empty rhetoric? From what I've heard about his early years in the Navy, we could use that John McCain again. <BR/><BR/>Fight Sen McCain, <B>show</B> us that you want it. Fight for this country again. Stand up to those that are trying to destroy us. You went through hell and served honorably in Vietnam. America needs someone that will fight the enemies that try to destroy her, both foreign & domestic. <BR/><BR/>Sen McCain, if you can't or won't, then at least unleash Palin and let her at 'em. She'll destroy them all given the opportunity. And she'll do it with the darndest smile.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
