No mention in the RNC ....hmmmmm.... I just think it's sad.

Not mentioned? Are you watching the same convention I am watching?

Here's something that isn't mentioned....

....Kerry's senate record. Not mentioned in the DNC convention. Hmmm. I just think it's sad.

I'm sure he's fine under the piece of rubel that our bombs left him in after we bombed his cave.

If it is mentioned I must have missed it.....I havent been watching each and every speaker but I have certainly watched the main ones, McCain, Rudy, Arnold, First Lady....they certainly didnot talk about him specifically.

Can you pass me a link or point to what exactly was said about him and his hunt?

From the impression I get, I think the focus has not been on about talking about Osama and his nexus (the REAL threat to USA).

His name will be front page soon enough, in the upcoming press release announcing his capture. Just before the election.

And to some of you lefties, apparently the only one. :rolleyes:

The first two nights weren't so much about policy, as much as praising the president and certifying his traits such as leadership. Cheney and Bush will outline plans and address concerns tonight and tomorrow (I'm assuming).

To paraphrase, McCain basically stated, "We haven't caught UBL, but we're right in his ***"

The Democrats didn't mention him by name either, to the best of my knowledge. Kerry certainly didn't. And Bush will not either. And they shouldn't.

1) We aren't fighting bin Laden. To say we are is to make this look like we are fighting some kind of criminal gang, that once we get the members, we can rest easy. It isn't so. We're fighting a movement that has it's own ideology, and we're fighting that movement, Islamic Jihadism. Bush was too PC to say it, but honestly, its the most honest way of describing our opponent. Not one man, but a militant ideology that calls for our destruction. This is what a lot of Democrats don't understand, and its why the public continues to give the edge to Bush on the issue of fighting terrorism.

2) Putting bin Laden's name in a speech at a national convention of either party, at such a great democratic institution, is insulting. Flat out. And for any of these guys to mention him by name elevates him to a status he doesn't deserve, and I might add, only adds to his completely unwarranted neo-Che Guevara image in some parts of the Muslim (and non-Muslim) world.

I'd be angry if they did mention Ossama bin Laden. We can old his scalp high for all to see once we get him. Until then, lets not grant him a level of legitimacy and prominence he does not deserve.
