Cheney's coming after all? Well, he'll fill one of those empty seats. Guess they're really getting desparate to get somebody to come to their convention...

Well at least the people that do show up at this convention will be there because they truly care about what's going on, rather than people just being there because it's the popular place to be, and that's pretty much how the Democratic National Convention will be this year. Nobody truly cares about what Obama has to say, because all he will say is Change and everyone will get all excited and that will be that, same old story.

AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH where have writing and gray matter going together gone?

On the one hand the only reason people are going to the Dem convention is not because they truly care but because its the popular place to be. Then once there not because they want to they will get all excited being there not because they truly care. Is McCainitis spreading?

Bush drew HUGE crowds overseas in every place he went and no one covered it. He drew record crowds in Korea and other places with signs thanking him and of course no media.

Don't kid yourself, he is getting credit for freeing us from terrorist, helping many nations such as Korea and others and has become a hero himself in many of these countries.

But of course, liberals in this country hate the man who is has become a hero to many countries and who will get credit for freeing millions and creating a country from scratch in 6 years to becoming a self run, independent country with everything ready to go. Not to bad, most countries took 20-30 years to get going, Bush did it in 6 years.

Believe me no one cares what liberals think anymore, they can draw crowds with free hot dogs and concert tickets all they want, but they have been on the wrong side of right on several key issues.

Fact is, I didn't like the man much myself, but now beginning to think he was right all along.

Bush and Cheney will bring crowds and money to the convention.

Bush and Cheney freed a country and helped many others along the way.
Despite what libs think he has been a wonderful commander and has kept us safe.

This party will be unified, liberals will be attacking each other like a pack of wolves once the Clintons abuse Obama like a wet noodle.

The liberal party is in chaos, their record for this congress, being on the wrong side of oil drilling, Iraq and many economic issues and with Obama dividing people like he does, the liberal party is a disaster.

Wait and see, the rep party will be one, the liberal party will be a total dog fight on who is running it.

Look up the crowds the hero got overseas, and he didn't talk bad about American like the baby blowboy did. And he didn't screw up history again like baby blowboy does one day after another.

I am sending McCain another 1,000.00 today just because Bush is showing up.

Time to get your triple voting and passed away people votes ready libs, your going to need it.

There was lots of coverage about the dueling demonstrators while Bush was in Korea. Here are some links to help you get a good helping of.

That would be a hoot, watching him walk on stage in hunting gear and gun hand. Run, duck hide as the audience dives behind something.
