Some who see clearer than you obviously don't share your distorted vision.

Friday, September 3 2004: THE BUBBLE HAS BURST: It's 4:30 am, and after less than two hours sleep I'm off to the airport to head home. I'm afraid your humble convention correspondent has been overcome by exhaustion.

This has been an amazing week full of amazing moments, capped off last night by what I thought was one of the President's best efforts ever behind a podium - the final twenty minutes of which I would rank as some of the best political oratory delivered in recent memory.

During that span many in the hall were moved to the edge of tears, along with the President himself, as George W. Bush poignantly recalled encounters with our fellow countrymen during their grief torn moments over the last four years. Then we were moved to laughter by a by a man confident enough tell jokes about himself - and to let the country laugh along with him. It was a remarkable few moments traveling that emotional trajectory along with the President in the hall last night, and it displayed in a very raw, real way many of the qualities that many Americans have come to appreciate and admire about him over the last four years.

I can't be sure it played this way in your living room or in living rooms across America, of course, but I have a hunch that it did.

Back with more thoughts later - from home. - T. Bevan

Tell us how you really feel.

Tell us about your pain.

Your pain is nothing compared to what it will be after the election.

The horror, the horror.

We want to feel your pain.

Kerry is going down like a mined Swift Boat.

Kerry paraded out Vietnam victims.
And use the death toll in Iraq for his campaign.

It is a dishonor to use them in such way.
Most if not all were doing what they believed in.
Pulling out now, is probably the opposite of what they wanted and could reverse the good they have done.

However, that is what Kerry during Vietnam, betry
his fallen and living commrades.
