Does anyone have a video link of the moment that the troops applauded
during shrubs speech last night? I swear I thought I saw a few of the soldiers, all together in one row, instead of clapping, feigning a cough like one does when he/she wants to say BS, and then looking at each other and laughing. Anyone else notice this? Or was I dreaming?

5. I can get to C-span...
but, the link on that page doesn't work. Maybe I've screwed up some setting on my computer. Thanks anyway. I'll try again later.

11. I found out the problem.
I'm borrowing a friend's laptop, and she hasn't installed RealPlayer. Only has windows media player. I'll install it and then follow the link.

I swear I saw this though. If anyone sees a clip of the applause on TV, etc.--look about two or three rows back from the front of the audience frame. Tell me if you see it too. Thanks. I'll check back. I've got to go. But, I'll be back.

Thanks again.

12. ABC reports applause was faked...
ABC reports that White House advance team FAKED the applause
by John in DC - 6/28/2005 08:34:00 PM

ABC's Terry Moran just reported that the only time Bush got applause was in the middle of his speech when a White House advance team member started clapping all on their own in order to cajole the soldiers into clapping, which they dutifully did.

So even the applause was fake.
