She interrupted Junior's speech. But, I didn't hear what she said.

3. With all that security |
|
if they can't secure their own convention from protestors, how're they going to protect us from the terrorist? The Democrats kept order much better. Of course the Democrats weren't stupid enough to go to a city that hates their guts, either. Republicans just can't seem to stay out of places where they aren't wanted.

Madison Square Garden is singular, not plural as you have it now. Thanks in advance!

What do you suggest? Should we all just fold our tents and go home?

23. From what I saw at the MTV Awards |
|
They were booing the Bush twins. When the names of the Bush twins were given I heard boos. I did not hear them booing the Kerry young ladies.
It was, however, noisy, it's MTV.

19. Stuff like this happens at all |
|
Kerry rallies and had the repugs had enough courage they would have done the same and Kerry would have handled it with aplomb. As one person observed on anothe thread: If repugs can't keep the protesters out, how are they going to ensure security. Another thought, they could have let them in on purpose to whine about it.

25. This Was NOT A RALLY Open To The "Public" |
|
it was the REPUBLICAN convention.
For the DELEGATES.
Just like the DNC was for DEMOCRATS.
And the DNC let in Democratic Delegates ONLY.

28. Yeah, well, shows how good Fatherland Security Is |
|
I bet you would have told Sam Adams and his buddies not to raise a ruckus. This is not the time to play it safe. The lives of ordinary Americans are at stake here.

Protest outside with passion and anger and be peaceful. Show the American people that we are better than the Rethugs. Those protesters acted like a bunch of immature punks. I would be furious if they did that to Kerry. People see that and see disrespect, not passion.

17. And a lot of Dems see the election stealing Bush as disrespectful |
|
of democracy. If the pukes had agreed to count all the votes there'd be little more respect accorded.

You may see it as disrespect, but not everyone does. I see it as passionate and dedicated. I could just as easily say, people see that and see passion and dedication. But I can't speak for "people" any more than you can. I can only speak for me.
If and when a disruption happens to Kerry and it will, go ahead and get all pissed off for all the good it will do ya. Kerry is a big boy and can handle himself accordingly, I'm sure.

Which side do you consider the other side?
It doesn't help Bush when the American people stand up to him.

20. Two days in a row protestors made it to the convention floor. |
|
I would have expected them to tighten security after the 7 protestors made it in.
