GOP Convention goes NEGATIVE, in one of the nastiest displays I've seen



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

This is absolutely incredible. I'm watching the GOP convention, Zell Miller is speaking in prime time at 10PM Eastern, and this is the most horrendous screed I have ever heard. The ENTIRE Miller speech is Kerry-bashing, like I have never seen. He even linked Kerry to flag burning! Flag burning!

I can not even begin to control my rage. This is offensive. It is outrageous. It is mean-spirited. It is filled with lies.

I'm quite serious. Everyone needs to read this speech when the transcript comes out. Practically the entire speech is horrendous, HORRENDOUS, Kerry-bashing. Miller even invoked the name of Paris, France, to suggest that Kerry would let - eh gads - the French decide when America could go to war.

Folks, the Republicans smeared the Democrats for making one or two comments at Paul Wellstone's funeral that were partisan, and now we have an entire evening devoted to the nastiest political rhetoric of this campaign - certainly the nastiest political rhetoric from anyone speaking officially on behalf of the campaign.

If we do not rally against this speech. If we do not find a way to ensure that this speech lives in infamy, and is exposed for the hate-mongering that it is, then we do not deserve to win this election.
