Ms. Barber, you have so much heart and sincerity. Your blog is extremely readable but extremely thought-provoking, too. It is enjoyable as well as enlightening.

Enjoy your break.

Thanks for the update, William. I plan to blog about the convention when I return, and I have some things to say about Michael Steele and some so-called controversial statements he’s made. I like him, but many don’t.

I’ve been listening to some of the convention on the radio. This is going to be controversial, but I need to address Bush’s choice to have a Muslim Imam give the invocation. What’s up with that? You know me, and I can’t wait to get into this discussion!

Too bad you aren’t watching! Lt Gov Steele was excellent!

Have enjoyed watching this convention more than I expected

Best wishes …

La Shawn, Michael Steele made me proud last night and showed the country how smart our governor was in choosing him as a running mate. Let me go out on a limb here and say that if Robert Ehrlich ever runs for president, he would have Micheal as his vp candidate.

If Ehrlich wins reelection in ‘06 I expect a run for the White House in 2012, unless there is a Republican incumbant from 2008, and I expect Michael Steele to be right along side him.

{La Shawn, exhausted and burnt out by the news, is slumped in a virtual chair, wanting to call out to John, “Wait. Don’t go. Stay awhile and read my archives until I return.”

But she’s too tired to speak. “He’ll be back someday,” she sighs.}

{John makes his daily pilgrimage into LaShawn Barber’s Corner. With his hand behind his back he just stares into the void. Pacing this cyber-void, he can hear the echo of his heals against the virtual floor. As he stops, there is complete silence. Heading toward the exit he takes one futile look back, in hopes of seeing evidence of new content. Sadly, there is none and shall be none for what seems like an eternity. Adieu ma amie! Adieu!}

La Shawn:

You missed some great speeches yesterday at the Convention.

Guliani and McCain were great – especially mocking Michael Moore who was there (can anyone have less shame?).

Then the Iraqui lady – telling about how life is so much better for her.

But most of all – the 3 911 widows were the best -

After tne media has fallen all over the professional 911 widows (Christian Breitweiser, Monica Gabrielle and others)who just hate Bush – it’s about time some of the widows who like Bush had their “day in the sun”.

Clear message from Guiliani and McCain speeches were terrific. The night was a wonderful tribute dedicated to our service members, a tribute so very well deserved. Really great night for America.

And, the speech by Ron Silver. The man took my breath away! The video is a keeper.
