IS this bush's major speech going on now?
I see he's going with the red tie now, following Kerry once again.

2. Yes, the mulligan has begun. CNN said that is what the Dem's are calling
this speech.

5. What an absolute piece of shit
The media had better call this out for what it is. A sensational attempt to get his stump speech -- completely pre-scripted -- on television to make up for the IDIOT DUNCE he made of himself in the presidential debate.

Dem heads better be all over this, after.

7. This is clearly an act of desperation, I'm surprised
he's that worried now. Internal polls must be worse than we think.

9. The boy in the bubble again,
making a carefully rehearsed speech in front of a carefully picked crowd ordered to applaud and cheer and make as much noise as possible. I don't think this will sway any undecided voters, and anyone stupid enough to think that this -- rather than the bumbling twit we saw in the debate -- is the "real president" is so stupid he or she will be voting for Bush anyway.

14. I cannot watch him for 5 more minutes
So I'll just read what everyone is saying. I did listen for about 30 seconds and he's got his twangy southern drawal working overtime.

20. WTF? Is this his "major speech"??? It's a fucking campaign speech
Why is this a "major" speech that should be covered by the media?

This must not be it. He cannot get away with this.

22. He's talking about "frivolous" lawsuits and Massachusetts "politicians".
A rousing, free campaign rally....not a major speech. He's testing some lines to use in the debate on Friday. He's reading poorly.

23. It's a dumb speech,just tuned in for a little, saying
the same things he has said before. Doesn't even sound like he believes it.
Keeps mentioning Kerry by name now, and bashing him.

24. Why aren't they showing the audience?
I bet it's only a few hundred people and they're trying to make it sound like Madison Square Garden.

26. I turned it off already
Can't take this blatant crap!!! Sure bill this as a major policy speech and nothing but another well scripted speech built on lies and half truths, in front of a hand picked adoring audience!!!

35. Nope, they're only using one camera straight on Bush
With a 'crowd' this enthusiastic you would think they would want to show the audience?

30. This close to an election it seems unfair for the media
to support an obvious campaign speech
by AWOL. There should be equal time given
to Kerry as a rebuttal.

32. ALL he can do is distort Kerry's positions and make snarky insults
If he couldn't lie to people, I don't think he'd have anything to say.

What a lying monkey.
