Yes John, I'll Fight with you!!!!!!!

John looked great (as always), his message of a strong America, and keeping guard against future attacks....definitely caught my attention. Creating jobs, by building more Nuclear plants, drilling for oil...

Vote for John McCain....:).....It's time for change.

Latest CBS news Poll......Closing the gap.

I thought the speech was ok...give it a B.

What's 270?

Come on KK don't be so naive............

History alway's repeats its self............

We'll watch it together, it'll be funner that way..........

Mf

This is all pre-Palin...the game has changed.

McCan't looks like he is getting old, talks in a low squeekie voice, and probably wont make it another 4 years. I think Obama should give him another medal and set up a fund to build a memorial for him. Just because he served his country doesn't make him the best candidate.

Won't make it another 4 years? Ever heard of the word Karma?

Missed it. Finished grooming 180 feet of ditch. 4" of variation along the way, so I'll live with that.

Why are you, so excited about the potential VP. I mean really, look what Cheney has done for your Party.

McCain is a relic,

Oh and don't forget the humor "Its so dry in Arizona, the trees chase the dogs"

McCant is old and out of touch with reality and Carribou Barbi while she may be a Gilf, is a Gillnetters wife and lacks the experience needed to run the country when Old John dies in a year or two. I honestly dont care for Obama a whole lot but once again it comes down to voting for who I think is the less of two evils. He (McCant) had so much make up on tonight to try to make him look younger that it made him look even older. As conniving as the Bush administration has been for the last 8 years I am really surprised that McCant was the best thing the Republicans could come up with this go around.

Cheer up Hankster. He did fine in the debates, He likes open forum, townhall style. Hes much better on his feet than the opponent. Palin has gone up against Murkowski, a 22 yr senator and beat him as well as republicans.

Let me guess, you sponsor cock fights for Thanksgiving and eat the losers.

Whatever you say LB.

I thought the speech, while decent was poorly written. Too many heroic phrases that McCain spoke as if totally canned and as flat as a pancake.
The words were good, but his delivery was pitiful..punching the wrong words and at the wrong times.

Still, that chick get's yer attention, and while they are really playing up her Alaskan toughness, McCain isn't making any friends in Washington by acting like she is some political bulldog he's bringing in to clean the place up.

KK,
Are you a Baghdad Jim McNumbnuts supporter also?
That was random..............
Does it matter who get's in the office. 4 more years of getting sold down the road either side of the fence.
Both canidates have that Holy Sh1t were screwed appeal.

Was there anyone under the age of say 70 or so in the audience ?? Looked like they taped it at an AARP convention.

McSame didn't say much besides " how about my vice president !!!"

If you're not at the negotiating table, you're on the menu.

Broke the key off in the backhoe and area of teh ditch is behind a silt fence, so no machinery can get back there, so this has been pick & shovel work. 20 more feet and I can use the backhoe! Got a nice run in last night, kind of like running line drills in basketball. Hopefully the new ignition shows up today.

My ditch...

That stuff I'm digging in is like concrete.

No me moleste'

Holy sh!t.

You were running an idiot stick to get that ditch dug out?

You're a f'n animal, Andy.

speaking of jobs nobody wants..anyone notice how none of the candidates have addressed closing our borders?

I dug out 560 feet of ditch with the backhoe, now I am doing final grading with pick and shovel.

Sounds better that way.

For McCain it wasn't to bad of a speech...But enough with the same ol stories...He sounded like he had great ideas, but didn't follow up with how it would be done. If you watch the canidates speeches back to back, you'll notice a difference in idea then answer, idea then answer. Only Obama consistanty gave you that feeling of how it would be accomplished...

I did enjoy the fact that McCain didn't led on to the fact that he didn't care for our current administration...He didn't say BUSH once!!!!

KK-

For being an astute observer of political machinery, you missed the totally obvious flaw in your thinking. Bush didn't get all the electoral votes both times. Well, until the supreme court said so and ................

Stole the election... yada yada yada.

So about my ditch....

If you were really cool, you'd fill it full of water and sharks with freakin' lazor beams and have it be your new moat!

It's a beaut. 560 feet long, approximately 400 feet of it is 24" deep or more (not including the berm between the ditch and the property, which is anothe 2 feet higher), and 4 feet wide, while the other 160 feet is 24" wide and averages 18" deep, but this is at the headwaters of the ditch. Total average slope from beginning to end is 2.51%.

What?

I thought folks would find a discussion of my new ditch more fascinating than what McCain or Palin said. Apparentlyt KK, Parker & Dan S agree.

It also makes a great fighting position, should the need ever arise.

Andy's starting to sound like an engineer.

That is mighty fine ditch, I bet it works like its supposed to.

I think Andy is figuring on burying somebody.
My lips are sealed.

Yeah, I'm gonna bury an engineer and a city administrator.

Don't worry, RR, you're safe.

Toss a lawyer in that mass grave ditch of yours, and I'd call it perfect!

PS. That ditch kinda makes me want to come over with an E tool, an M1 and a fixed bayonet!

Oh wait, that's a trench, not a ditch. Sorry. Was having some WWII flashbacks again.

ISO, no one could handle those interuptions and the chanting. You break the flow and the emphasis of the speech. Code Pink got into the convention using passes of the Ron Paul (interviewed on radio, she said disgruntled republicans) in order to disrupt the speech. The man cant raise his hands over his head. He walks with a limp. He doesnt have the booming voice of Fred Thompson or an actors delivery. Sometimes you have to focus on the words.
As far as friends go in Washington, its the very last consideration. Democrats are in control. He was talking to the moderates, who dont like the divisive nature of politics. Frankly, Id like to see someone throw the trash out on both sides. How many tell all books are written by congressman and senators. Ive yet to find one.

Oh, I also hear that more than 38 million people watched his speech.

Latest Poll:
47% Obama
43% Mcain
10% Undecided
Looks like the Republican convention really swung the public opinion. Cant wait for the debates.-T

Ditch the ditch.

Here you go KK.

Ain't over until McCain says it's over....

Your funny KK, don't lose that sense of humor.... Obama for president...lol

Mf

I was thinking of painting my fence if anybody wants to come over and watch it dry you are welcome.
Andy's ditch is a lot more exciting than watching 72 year old John McCain talk for 30 minutes. I remember listening to my granpa tell stories like that. He would go on and on then ask " now what was I talking ablut "?

I personally thought the highlights of the convention were;

1.) Fred Thompson, the near life long actor, talking about Obama being a celebrity. Hmmm.....

2.) Palin trashing Reid and the 'do nothing' Senate, and then immediately mentioning her running mate 'Senator John McCain'...

I'm not a Republican, and I still would have had someone other than Thompson take the 'celebrity' angle, and put some space between Palin's remarks.

Of course, I would have been inclined to have them actually address the issues instead of barking for three days on tabloid fodder, but of course, they never asked...

Watching paint dry at your house could be alot of fun Steve.
