1. Alphabetical n/t

4. I'm an idiot. Thanks for pointing that out.

[Connie_Corleone]

2. I hope it's early primetime

I can get some housework done during his speech.

[never_get_over_it]

13. It should be about

3:30 before the convention starts - maybe he can announce that he is leaving the party - I know we're the party of inclusion but for Holy Joe, I'd make an exception. Can't stand him....

[Endangered Specie]

3. And you thought Bob Graham would put you to sleep?

[NightTrain]

5. Say what you will about Lieberman, but...

...at least he never left the party. And unlike Zell Miller, he's not speaking at the RNC!

Beyond that, I find Lieberman a major embarrassment. And I'm from Connecticut!

[thebigidea]

9. I hold it against him that he never left the party.

[JI7]

6. ALL primary candidates get to speak primetime

[theboss]

7. I forgot about Warner....

Which is unforgiveable since he is my governor. When is he speaking?

Why in God's name is Biden speaking?

12. He should be speaking at the Republican Convention

He STILL stands behind Bush's decision to go to war in Iraq. He has been a shill for the GOP for years. He still thinks that Iraq and Al Qaida are connected. He is a democrat in name only.

22. only in the minds of the completely delusional. See Dick Cheney.

Is that all you guys have now?

"Somewhat connected"?

Thousands dead for "somewhat connected"?

Fucking embarassing.

30. I notice you skipped the subject entirely.

Its not a matter of "personal beliefs" - you don't send our troops to die over "personal beliefs."

If you have some facts, share 'em.

What connection?

How are they "somewhat connected"?

"Fucking narrow minds are what's embarassing."

What's embarassing is brainless repetition of a long-discredited canard.

So you're saying its "open-minded" to believe an outrageous lie like the Saddam/Al-Qaeda connection?

[name not needed]

23. LOL!

You're not serious, are you?

32. Now you're posing as some independent freethinker for buying a LIE?

A lie sold to us by the Bush administration, and believed by a majority of Americans despite all the facts to the contrary?

What, pray tell, is so gloriously independent-minded about swallowing such nonsense hook, line, and sinker?

And I ask you again - how were Saddam and Al-Qaeda "somewhat connected"?

[name not needed]

36. Well good for you

but you have no way of proving your point. And until you do prove it, your claim is total bullshit.

[PeaceForever]

24. Why do you like Joe?

He's prowar.

10. Does he still have the Joementum ?

[Renew Deal]

14. I wonder if he will get booed.

[nomaco-10]

15. We're under Kerry's big tent.......

plenty of room for Joe, McCain and a pro war, trial lawyer with little or no experience. Well hell though, he's the son of a mill worker and all that, so what the heck. All is well in the dem party.....

[SarahB]

16. I heard him today on local radio.

He talked about how he was going to talk about how Kerry voted for the resolution and how he believes most of the delegates don't support the war, therefore (I'm paraphrasing here) were very different from most Democrats. I think PNAC's Democratic poster boy is losing his mind. God, I hope someone in CT has the nads to run against this man for the Democratic slot in 2006.

[nomaco-10]

17. Just mention "outsourcing"... the crowd goes wild NT

[nomaco-10]

19. Oh, and the ever popular "roll back tax cuts" "Applause".

[name not needed]

27. Not prime time, nap time.

[Bluebear]

28. Whee! Joementum!!!

yikes

[umtalal]

33. WHY LIEBERMAN? n/t

[nomaco-10]

38. He fits perfectly in the Kerry/Edwards big tent.....PRO WAR and PRO ISRAEL

39. The Fools: Did they Read the 9/11 Report?????
