#5 I'd put money on Zell in any standup fight. He'd whip Skeery with a stare-down alone. Edwards isn't that smart - he'd have to bitch-slap him once or twice... it'd prolly make him cry.

I'm amazed by the stable of hardcore solid people waiting in the wings in the Pub party. I only see one, one single person in the Donk party that I'd even talk to - Joe Leiberman. And the Dhimmis - dissed him like he was a leper.

Well, if Bush pulls this one out then it will be The Witch of Bottomless Ambition in '08.

Cheney's doing a little bitch-slapping of his own - he's too controlled to be a Zell, but he's damned solid. I would love to have been there when he got in Leahy's shit and dissed him eyeball to eyeball. I already know who blinked. Sorry Mucky, but this guy's 24K Gold - and you'd better get over it, lol!

#9 HOLY SCHITSKIS! WHAT A SPEECH! Just amazing. He covered all the main points with facts and passion. And I read the transcripts, never heard the audio. He laid out the choices, plain and simple. My hat is off to you Zell. Masterful work.

Posted by: Frank G 2004-09-01 11:09:22 PM Comment Top Page Two

#11 They're discussing Zell on Fox - and Mara Liasson & Mort Kondracke are saying he went into demogoguery on the point of saying our troops aren't occupiers, they're liberators and the Donks don't get it, that Kerry even thinks of them that way... Then it was pointed out that 90% of the DNC delegates were against the war and likely would have said precisely that.

Since the 2 Libsquirts on the Fair & Balanced panel are squealing, thus we know that he really hit 'em where they live - and it hurt.

Now the spitballs line is getting a good laugh, some of it nervous laughter.

And Bret rocks, as always. No one even comes close to him as a newsman, today.

#15 Just as a sample of how much this freaks them out - look at this discussion thread list... They're all counting on various CNN, MSNBC, etc "personalities" to put Zell to shame, somehow. I don't think that any interview with Woofie Blitzer, no matter what Woofie did, would balance with the speech.

This information from the Farm Animal Fuckers For Truth Organization

2)But there is another group who has documented evidence against Zell - the Pig-Fuckers of America. Zell is a card-carrying member. And now these heroic Goat-fuckers come forward - a truely great day for American politics!

#17 Zell was just on Hardball and he really laid into Mathews and his set up questions. It was hilarious! Zell yelled "get out of my face", "don't pull that stuff on me" and "I don't know why I came on this program" among others. Chris Mathews was dumb founded and ended up trying to kiss Zell's ass. lol

#18 OMG! I just saw Zell rip a new a**hole in Chris Matthews and challenge him to a freakin' duel. Zell got ALL over him about interrupting him when he tried to answer.

Zell gave a real stem-winder tonight and topped it off by totally Kobe-tizing Hardball guy. Zell made Matthews his bi-otch, big-time!

#2 Listing all the weapon systems that Senator Kerry tried his best to shut down sounds like an auctioneer selling off our national security but Americans need to know the facts.
The B-1 bomber, that Senator Kerry opposed, dropped 40 percent of the bombs in the first six months of Operation Enduring Freedom.
The B-2 bomber, that Senator Kerry opposed, delivered air strikes against the Taliban in Afghanistan and Hussein's command post in Iraq.
. . .
The F-15 Eagles, that Senator Kerry opposed, flew cover over our Nation's Capital and this very city after 9/11.
I could go on and on and on: . . .against, against, against.
This is the man who wants to be the Commander in Chief of our U.S. Armed Forces?
U.S. forces armed with what? Spitballs?

In all due respect Senator, you forgot Kerry has a secret army of Snowboarders and Windsurfers...

#7 Zell not only zinged Kerry, he zinged the media and all the other loony left wingnuts out there who think they're so brave for "dissenting" by slamming the war in Iraq. This was great - Zell was pulling people back to the real world, a world where there are people out there looking to kill us dead, even while the loony left fiddles. This guy is magic.

#15 Ship will like this...

Zell's confrontation with Matthews sounds like a true clash of cultures.

Matthews, a truly wussified Modern whatever convinced that he can say and do anything to almost anyone - and is immune to response or retribution.

Miller, an old-school Southern Gentleman and Statesman with values, pride, and clear-cut ideas of honor and appropriate deportment... and he suffers no fools.

This very clearly reminds me of Nathan Bedford Forrest's statement to his Commanding General, Braxton Bragg...

Forrest's scolding against Bragg in fall 1863, is regarded by some as the greatest insubordination speech ever given by a US military officer:

"You commenced your cowardly and contemptable persecution of me soon after the battle of Shiloh, and you have kept it up ever since. You did it because I reported to Richmond facts, while you reported damned lies. You robbed me of my command in Kentucky, and gave it to one of your personal favorites -- men that I armed and equipped from the enemies of our country. In a spirit of revenge and spite, because I would not fawn upon you as others did, you drove me into West Tennessee in the winter of 1862, with a second brigade I had organized, with improper arms and without sufficient ammunition, although I had made repeated applications for the same. You did it to ruin me and my career.

"When in spite of all this I returned with my command, well equipped by captures, you began your work of spite and persecution, and have kept it up. And now this second brigade, organized and equipped without thanks to you or the government, a brigade which has won a reputation for successful fighting second to none in the army, taking advantage of your position as the commanding general in order to further humiliate me, you have taken these brave men from me.

"I have stood your meanness as long as I intend to. You have played the part of a damned scoundrel, and are a coward, and if you were any part of a man I would slap your jaws and force you to resent it.

"You may as well not issue any more orders to me, for I will not obey them. And I will hold you personally responsible for any further indignities you try to inflict upon me.

"You have threatened to arrest me for not obeying you orders promptly. I dare you to do it, and I say that if you ever again try to interfere with me or cross my path, it will be at the peril of your life."

Reportedly, Bragg's face was totally white when Forrest left. After exiting Bragg's tent. Dr. Cowan told him, "Well, you are in for it now.". Forrest turned and replied, "He'll never open his mouth. Unless you or I mention it, this will never be known."

This incident was reported later in detail by Forrest's doctor, Dr. Cowan.

It is cut off before it was over, but it included a couple of bits MSNBC edited out of the replay (wonder why?) - the moment where he tells Matthews to shut up and that there's no point in asking a question if he's going to talk over the answer - and Matthews says, "Yes sir." and STFU!

#28 Lucky - read this single page about Forrest at Fallen Timbers. We're talking Big Brass Balls and the most awesome fighter of either side in the Civil War.

The most hardcore guy the North had, General Sherman, had a little to say about this - he was there and witnessed Forrest's charge... Check out what he says privately, at the top, versus his official report, which follows. Lol!

And this sort of action by Forrest occurred throught the war. Brice's Crossroads is another classic - which is studied in detail for the fact that it was hopeless - yet Forrest turned it into a victory.

#34 .com, did you see this story of Retired Rear Adm. William L. Schachte Jr? Novak has interviewed him about Kerry's first Purple Heart, but the Schachte's story is pretty incredible itself. As a Lt(jg) he is certain that he was aboard a motorwhale boat with Kerry when JFK injured himself with a gernade launcher. Schachte is sure because he developed the "Batman" technique and rode along on every mission that "Batman" was used. "Batman," it turns out, is the technique of flushing enemy fighters by offering up a motorwhale boat as bait. Schatchte must clang when he walks.

#38 SH - Sorry - I went shopping - it's great at 1:30 AM! I saw the Novak piece - and read about his always being on board the Whaler - thus Skeery's BS story about his first mission, being alone on the Whaler, lol, is just more Skeery BS. And he was, indeed, the Batman with his unique homebrew technique for drawing fire. A Good Man - among men - and that's as good as it gets. Melike!

AC - Agreed! Susie Estrogen and CC whatever (WaPo slug) are on now saying Miller was frowning and mean and negative - and that he hurt the ticket... LOL! Sure as hell he didn't among men. Among the wymyns, well we've heard from Jen - I guess we'll have to hang on a few hrs to see what our other Femalian RBers thought. I believe that he may have grabbed the undecided wymyn too - because of the family being more important than party, and that was why he was there to speak. Solid logic and solid appeal in that for wymyn, I think. I saw Estrogen transform from her all-eyes and smoky voice persona to all teeth, full screech, and eyes popping out maniacally angry once. Not a pretty sight, lol! She sucks so much I can't figure why the Donks parade her around.

#40 The spin from the left was near-instantaneous. I started on FNC. Mara Liasson "Zell looked angry, I don't know how it will play on TV." Over on CNN, Wolf Blitzer and company were ganging up on someone talking about how "Zell went too far". Chris Matthews was hyperventilating directly at Zell, and Zell was having NONE OF IT. "I wish I could be there so I could get a little closer to your face," he said.

He's been my favorite Democrat for awhile. This demonstrates why in no uncertain terms.

#42 I guess we'll have to hang on a few hrs to see what our other Femalian RBers thought.

Zell at RNC: Bloodied Kerry up but good-entirely deserved and a pleasure to see. Hurt the ticket?-hahaha. I think some other aspects of the convention will alienate a considerable number of independents/undecideds, but not Zell's speech. He was spectacular last night, and as was the case with Rudy's and McCain's speeches, his speech hit exactly the issues Americans are agitated with Kerry about. This should beef up Bush's numbers in the south.

Zell at Hardball-You guys are real teases, you know that? I am dying to see it, but this PC has no soundcard. From what you say, it sounds like the host of Hardball better learn how to take a punch if he wants to play with the big boys.

#46 Zell is the face of the Democratic Party of yore, before Communistist infiltrated and changed the face of the party. Listening to Zell brought FDR and Truman back to life.

#47 Dear DNC, If you found my speech inflammatory, mean spirited, harsh, non-pc, and angry good it was supposed to be! You can kiss my southern ass if you donât like it! P.S. if any of you want to âdiscussâ this man-to-man I will be in the parking lot at recess!

#48 Damn posted on wrong Zell link. hehe

A day late and a dollar short...saw this thread at work earlier and was finally able to read and watch (Thanks .com!) it just now. WOW! Powerful speech. No punches pulled there. He's a feisty old bastard...and I love him! If only the Democrats had more people like him, then maybe I would give them a look. Fat chance in the next 50 years is my bet.

Best line....And, no pair has been more wrong, more loudly, more often than the two Senators from Massachusetts, Ted Kennedy and John Kerry.

That must be the most truthful sentence ever uttered by a politician in modern times.

Final Note: Chris is an absolute fraud. I guess that's the Dem's version of what O'Reilly is suppose to be like. Unfortunately, he's WAY more Howard Dean then Bill O'Reilly.

#50 Thank you, Sen. Miller, for showing The Caveman how a true gentleman thinks, speaks, and acts.

#51 Chris can only bully around small Asian women. I listened to the piece and what a JERK! I bet Chris stays a fair distance away from miller for a while.

#52 Excellent NBF post .com.
Weird thing is Braxton Bragg damn near kept the war going another year or so with his hail mary valley campaign in '64. Grant had to yank a corps out of Petersburg to handle the threat to Washington.... which by then had been deluded of it's fortress troops.

#54 You see how it goes:
A German has the idea.
An American realizes it.

#55 Dawned on me late last night that it was Jubal Early not Bragg who freaked out Washington in '64.
