Warning to conservative readers: partisan thoughts belowDavid WeinbergerI don't think I'm going to have the fortitude to watch the Republican Convention. I know that makes me a small person, but I just can't take it.I'm getting some blow-by-blow commentary from Mitch via IM right now and I can understand David's feelings.Mitch on IMMitch: sorry, distracted by the glaring whiteness of the RNconvention. no people with any color while Rudy talks
Mitch: pretty wretched talk -- it is ugly in several dimensions, suggesting anyone who disagrees with Bush is an appeaser
Mitch: he literally just said "either you are with us or with the terrorists"
Mitch: and followed by comparing Bush to Churchill
Mitch: Rudy is sure he's ChurchillianRegarding David's post, Mitch says, "too many years as a reporter -- I can watch anything."
