My God, Jim Webb is speaking so much more eloquently tonight...
than he did in his campaign speeches (and I'm fully aware of the impossible weight he had on his shoulders back then).

I'm proud to have him representing us in the Senate.

Virginians, you are lucky people.

8. Exactly - Dems always talk about owing the troops that careful consideration.
GOPs are too busy funnelling the big money they claim is for the troops to the defense INDUSTRY executives.

6. great point..
he is doing great... I loved what he said about bringing the troops home, and not taking one step back against international terrorism... and now, the part about the rich raking in the majority of money over the poor people threatening revolt...

7. Oh my goodness. I read the transcript of this speech earlier but hearing
it from Webb is 20 times as effective and stirring. He's kicking ass.

This IS the speech we needed at this time and this is the man, someone who served, who's father and brother served, and who's son is serving, to give it.

11. Was he about to break out in laughter 2/3 of the way into the speech?
It seemed like he was having a hard time not laughing.
