I was surprised that Bush actually managed to maintain
some semblance of perspicacity against Kerry's ivy
league eloquence. But the Bush quote that got my goat
(not however, my vote):

"We have unleashed the armies of compassion"

This brought an Orwellian chill to my spine.
This hidden subtext whether intended or not
immediately flooded my mind.

"Yes, my fellow Americans... it is time to cry
"havok!" and unleash the armies of compassion to free
the world. Free them from their lives, their property,
and the suffering that these things entail."

"He stands like some sort of pagan god or deposed tyrant. Staring out over the city he's sworn to . . .to stare out over and it's evident just by looking at him that he's got some pretty heavy things on his mind."
