In the late 1970's, on the show Saturday Night Live, there was a character played by Gilda Radner. The name of the character was Emily Latella. She was a mixed up old lady who was constantly mispronouncing words and very confused about the topics of her news editorials on the mock TV news portion of the show. When the main news casters of the show, usually Chevy Chase or Jane Curtain correct her on the mistakes in her stories, should would simply reply, Never mind! and just smile.
I was reminded of Emily Letella when watching the last debate with Bush and Kerry. This occurred when Kerry was commenting on his plan for medical coverage and after wards the moderator asked Bush to reply.
Bush started to reply by saying, "I don't know how he can compare........um....um....Nevermind! and starting chuckling like a jackass. Then Bush went on to another explanation trying to rebut Kerry's comments about insurance.
After watching that, I don't know why anyone would want to vote for him. He is supposed to be highly educated and a good speaker. He made an fool of himself on national TV for all of America to see.

Wrong... he made a fool of kerry for all to see...
President Bush came off the best of this one...
To me that makes one debate for kerry and two for President Bush...
President Bush will be getting my vote... we need a strong leader, not somone who wants to pass a "global test" to see what action to take for this country, one that understands this country is becoming more conservative everyday, because the socialistic tendencies of the left does not work....

Just Nevermind! trying to make that point. ABC said it was a tie, CNN-Gallup said the Kerry won by a landslide. Check today's news, and you will see the light.

A CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll, conducted less than one hour afterthe 90-minute debate in Tempe, Arizona, showed that 52 percent of the 511 voters surveyed thought Kerry won the debate and 39 percent chose Bush as the winner.

Haven't you learned by now.... I don't care what polls say for or against President Bush... I know what I saw and heard... President Bush said the right things... and as usual kerry fell flat on his face.
My opinion is the only one that counts for me... those other people don't vote for me and I don't vote for them...
