Late Convention Date

The late GOP convention date is sending Maureen Dowd into new paroxysms of rage:
Even as they stifle their Pax Americana impulses in Iraq, the imperialists swagger with a Pox Americana at home. Karl Rove has broken creative new ground in appalling political opportunism by pushing back the Republican National Convention in New York City to September 2004, the latest date for a convention in the party’s history and only days away from you-know-when.Mr. Rove envisions merging the Madison Square Garden party with the 9/11 anniversary commemorations into one big national security lollapalooza. Perhaps President Bush should just skip the pretense of the Garden and give his acceptance speech at ground zero.
Perhaps he should. Meanwhile, the Democratic theme of the day is… a plot to steal over $200 billion (!!) of your money every year and give it away to the tiny minority (13%) of Americans without health insurance.
