"We ought to do more thanking, less thinking. No one ever says 'think you'."

Joyce McGreevy (no relation to the guv) at Salon shares an advance peek at Bush's acceptance speech. Quotable quotes:

"You know, we all have a obligation to vote. But that doesn't mean you have to."



"...if John Kerry doesn't want his record of admirable service in Vietnam to be attacked, he shouldn't have had a record in the first place. He kind of set himself up for that one by serving admirably and then testifying to the Senate about the lessons of Vietnam. You didn't see me doing that."



"So let's turn a corner, any corner, and spread the good word that America is now so much safer that terrorists could attack us at any minute, and you might be one of them."



"I want to thank the workers of America who helped us overcome the Clinton recession that had 22 million jobs threatening the security of this country."



"This is America. You can't just take somebody's tax cut. You have to inherit your own tax cut. That's the American dream."
