Re: Aronscott // Jul 24, 2009 at 3:15 pm –

Thanks, Aron.

Apparently there’s no transcript. (*SIGH*) At least it hasn’t been posted at AEI yet.

See, this is the problem with “technology.” I don’t care about the video. I don’t care about the audio. Besides the fact I’m not going to commit an hour to the exercise of watch/listening, what am I supposed to do with an audio or video… transcribe it as I watch/listen?

(When I write *I* I’m really saying “interested parties, people in general.”

With a transcript I can cut/paste/cite for blogging purposes. What the heck use is a 60 minute video/audio if that’s my purpose. (Rhetorical question… the answer is “none.”)

Anyway… just my perspective. Others may disagree. Thanks again for providing the link to the video.

“I was reporting from the event.”

You failed to note that in your original post.

“I’m really not quite sure what links you’re looking for.”

A link to the actual text of the speech.

I tried to located one before, but the AEI website was down.

Always include links to what you’re referencing, Tim; that’s the lesson I’m trying to impart. (No charge!) (*WINK*)

Are we back to deleting posts…???

(Or did I not hit “submit” earlier…???)

Anyway… to reiterate… TIM – include LINKS.

(I just can’t believe I need to tell him this… look at the kid’s “bio.” Educational standards have apparently slipped even further than I have in the past feared.) (*SIGH*)

Republicans would be INSANE to nominate this man for Prez. Sure he’s better than Obama but who wouldn’t be ?

Guiliani’s credentials are overrated. He became the media darling after 9/11 because they didn’t want to give focus to Bush – it was soooo obvious. The fact that Guilani believes this crap tells me he’s another out-of-touch elitist. I just can’t understand why some politicians act like they, and they alone can save us.

BTW What is a “full-throated conservative message” anyway?

Well Tim, I hope you are correct. What more is there to say, still difficult to determine why “outstanding governance credentials” didn’t get him there before.
