Excerpts of Obama's speech

Joe Reed, Miami, FL — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 23:06:44 GMT

That's right Baby, the truth hurts, McCain and company cannot take this...Go Obama! Tell it like it is, McCain is way out of touch with American Values and his war mongering and his POW stories are old, shallow and say nothing about where we want to take our country into the future.

It is our turn to carry the torch for Martin Luther King, Jr. and for everyone back in the 1960's who marched, who died, who defended, our fellow Americans.

It is our turn to march - to the polls in November - and bring the Democratic Party back to the White House.

Wow, I'm tingling already. I can't wait for him to take the stage! This is going to be spectacular! The Republicans have no orators that can even remotely compare!

Yes We Can!

Ron Indiana — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 23:11:10 GMT

Yes, yes we can. Sock it to them Barack. As Bill Clinton said, History is on the side of Barack Obama. The Democratic party delegates will leave Denver return to their homes and we will work hard for this man, Barack Obama.
Now for the other news: Huffington Post talks about an MSNBC implosion. It is obvious that the likes of Joe, David,Pat need to find a new home. Actually one of their best reporters is David Shuster.

Barack and Joe, give them hell.

Dave in OC, Vets for Obama — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 23:13:30 GMT

Go Barack!

Smart of him to say McHouses voted with Shrub 90% of the time.

Why?

-- Because everyone's going to say "I thought he voted with Bush 95% of the time!"

Smart.
Vets for Obama!

Looks great on paper but no one can deliver those words with the sincerety and dynamics of Barrack Obama.

Thank you Joe Louis for the fantastic dedication to MLK.

If people vote agaist Obama because he is Black they deserve what they get another Howdy Dowdy.
The problem is it will effect all of us.
Call 4 freinds and get them to vote for Obama and have them call 4 friends and we can take america back from McCain-Bush

Maybe he needs the Clintons to that for him as well. ! Time to move on from obama to Mccain. This dem is backing McCain ! Iwatched Hillary and Bill then was done. I may not agree with everything McCain stand for but, the Y choice is much better than the X choice.

Thank you for allowing the truth on MSNBC — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 23:18:39 GMT

Ya, know what? I love that MSNBC allows this posting. I am also very grateful that we have at least one network that is positive towards Senator Obama,that is MSNBC. The other networks just fake balance. At least here you have sense and stand for right! I Like MSNBC for having the courage to speak the truth! That is what's missing in America! That's why the other networks are hollering, they just spin. Keep doing what you are doing!

Will there be a fog machine going as obama descends the cross?
Will Nancy Pelosi be wearing a toga and sandals?
Will there be a chariot race around the track after the speech?
No wonder Bill Clinton left town. This is over the top and Americans will see it that way.

Future President Obama's convention Speech is POWERFUL! Thank you MSNBC for giving the Obama spotlight it deserves as CNN has proven to have there own agenda. Obama doesn't need to trash Dark Vader (Cheney)or that stubborn little simpleton (Bush) to build himself up. Class rules out and him taking the high road only shows his administration is above the fray and will run business in a effective and new way come January.

We are mopping up and completing the war on terror in Iraq where there was no war on terror in the first place until we invaded and created an environment that encouraged terrorism. And now that we have reduced the level of terrorists acts we can claim victory even though terrorists acts in Iraq were non-existent before we invaded. How's that?
C A, Tuscalossa, AL
**************************

The truth is we don't know if there was or was not any terrorist activities in Iraq before 2003, and bacause of the invasion we may never know. Iraq has always been an open country to Arab neighbors (except Iran). People come and go as they please. In 2003 The US invaded causeing more and more millitant types to engage US forces. Truth is we don't know how many terrorists are dwelling in our own country. 9-11 took years to plan. terrorists both in the US and abroad were planning this out for years for the right moment to strike, and to those who say say it won't happen again are just fooling themselves To say that tighning security here has kept us safe from terrorists underestimate how clever people can be. However if there is anything positive to say about the situation in Iraq is that since the invasion there has been a record drop in terrorist activities outside the country in Iraq. As bad as it sounds to here about US casulties in Iraq and Afghanistan, it still is alot better to hear than casulties in New York, Chicago, or LA.

Casey | Tecumseh, Mo. — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 23:32:35 GMT

This will be an historic day whatever the words are, but I expect Senator Barack Obama will rise to the occasion and do us - and Dr. King - proud.

I hope the MSNBC team will realize that we want to see and hear everything that is happen and not talk over the events. We love you, but you are on every day!

And just a comment about McCain's adviser who suggested there aren't "technically" any Americans without health care because there's always the emergency room. SHAME ON YOU and doesn't it just show how out of touch McCain is?

How like a Republican to redefine the problem so that there ISN'T a problem -- rather than find a real solution. Now that's problem-solving! NOT.

Cindi in Louisiana — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 23:33:43 GMT

I don't ge Hillary supporters who are voting for McCain. If you trusted the judgment of Hillary and Bill, you would vote for Obama after hearing what they had to say the past two days.

The Repukes will try to start this "celebrity" crap again and try to suggest that he can't connect to the average American. I just saw the size of that crowd, and guess what? I think there are PLENTY of average Americans there to hear what he has to say!!!

Mitch Ca — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 23:39:22 GMT

Polls show Obama one point ahead of McCain
maybe that's because of the unconventional convention
coverage where you kept asking for the 'red meat'
but everytime a speech came on you didn't show it you just talk over it
