RNC @ MSG: 9/11 Tribute

The 9/11 tribute was moving and motivational. The KerrySpot summed it up well:

It will be hard for Terry McAuliffe and company to accuse the Republican Party of exploiting 9/11 in light of the comments by the widow and the sister of the passengers on Flight 93. What was the GOP supposed to say, ‘No, you're not allowed to speak at our convention’?

In my humble opinion, this was miles ahead of the schmaltzy Glenn Close speech and musical tribute at the Democratic Convention.”

It was miles ahead because it was real. Distill all Republican-Democrat differences down to one essence, and what you get is that Republicans are genuine, and Democrats are phony, because Democrats cannot be honest about what they believe and have a hope in hades of winning nationally. Eight years of Bill Clinton spoiled those people, and they’re still only beginning to discover how tough that spin machine is to operate on their own.

All year Dems have been warning – warning! – Republicans not to “politically exploit” 9/11, even while launching an unending moldy stream of libelous attacks on the President regarding that hideous watershed event. Monday night in the heart of liberaldom, the GOP told their foes where they could shove their cynical, hypocritical “advice.”

No wonder the networks didn’t cover it.
