7. Kick
Best line of the speech.

"But America is stronger still when we work with our allies, stay true to our values, and treat the rest of the world with respect, WITH RESPECT! That's the America that Connecticut voted for today."

8. That's a big part of what the election in November
will be all about. The Lamont victory was a warning shot accross the bow of the American empire project.

10. I can agree to an extent.
But I will never condone treating terrorist groups such as Hezbollah with respect.

11. Should he be going around making sense like that?
Is that legal, all this wild uncontrolled logic?

12. I agree to respect nations, but I don't respect terrorists
I don't respect anyone that straps a bomb to their chest and purposely kills innocent people in the name of their religion.

13. Lamont didn't say TERRORISTS
But you are doing a good attempt at GOP-style spin.

14. Lamont never said "nations"....he said "the world."
That can be interpreted in many different ways. He should have been more specific.

I wanted to make sure my opinion was specific.

15. Yet you take the WORST possible spin from that
and imply he included terrorists.

It's like saying you're "proud to be an American" and getting slammed for linking yourself with serial killers like Ted Bundy.

Face it, Joe LOST. Move ON.
