Teddy is speaking now.
He said he wants to help Obama change America.
UPDATE: HERE'S THE EXACT QUOTE VIA THE NYTIMES:
“I have come here tonight,” he continued, “to stand with you to change America to restore its future, to rise to our best ideals and to elect Barack Obama president of the United States.”This is another rhetorical BLUNDER.
Maybe change DC and politics, BUT AMERICA!?!?
Listen Dems: America is the best country on Earth.
You need changing, not us.
And he and Pelosi are promising HEALTHCARE AS A RIGHT.
This is socialism folks.
VOTE ACCORDINGLY.
More: Teddy is invoking JFK'S moon challenge - as in "the USA can achieve anything."
HEY TEDDY: IF WE CAN PUT A MAN ON THE MOON, THEN WE CAN WIN IN IRAQ! So... if we Americans really have a CAN DO attitude, then why withdraw from Iraq and call ousting Saddam and helping Iraq build a democracy a mistake?! THAT'S DEFEATISM, BABY! And JFK would have NEVER supported it.
More: It's over! Short speech. GOOD. Now they're playing STILL THE ONE. "Still having fun and you're still the one!"
He sure had fun the night before he swam at Chappaquiddick. Mary Jo not so much.
AP weighs in here.
FOX HERE
I haven't checked any media reaction.
ReplyDeleteI did, however, catch all of the Admiral of Chappaquiddick's speech. I'm betting that even conservatives will give him a pass on the socialist message he delivered -- out of pity. Now, I might pity him on a personal level. But politically? Hell, no!
Healthcare as a right is indeed pure socialism.
Caroline Kennedy's introduction to her uncle was too sappy for my taste -- not to mention her endorsement of BHO when she basically said that BHO is a JFK replacement. Sheesh!
