I don’t remember where I saw this first: “Remember, Veteran’s Day, this year, is 2 November.”
I can’t believe the absolute ridiculous claim that because Kerry thinks the war in Iraq isn’t going well, he is “obviously hoping the U.S. military fails.” Shouldn’t people that are supposedly supporting the troops care that Bush lied to get them there, failed to plan, and is now leaving them out there to die with no real direction? Isn’t that a bit more aggravating than say, ya know, pointing out the fact that things are going well?
Well, while you’re busy mocking, you might as well have the chance to mock this one, too. [grin]
Did you catch this?
“Kerry knew from Vietnam what it felt like to face the bullets without the support of the folks back home…”
That isn’t true. When Nixon was elected, a majority of Americans were behind the war effort (Kerry was there until March ’69).
Support for the war decreased *after* groups like VVAW and others began telling tall tales of American malfeasance in the field.
Newsweek simply cannot help but write something disingenuous.
– A mildly satisfying visual – Imus beating his head against a jukebox trying to figure out what [the hell] Kerry had just said to him in response to a question clearly discribe his position on the Iraqi war. Imus tried mightily to carefully frame the question and gave the Senator plenty of time to answer it. Once again, as on so many other occassions, Kerry sounded like Olive oil on that bridge in Sweethaven trying to walk and talk both directions at once….Imus just gave up…Even more interesting was the segment with Joe Biden…Much as I’m totally with and support Bush, ole Joe has done his homework and knows what he’s talking about concerning Iraq and the upcoming meetings by Bush at the UN…Wish he was in Bush’s cabinet…. one of the few right thinking Dem’s ( pun intended )….

The news media is working harder than ever to help Kerry. Notice how now all the gloom and doom articles on Iraq are coming out just as Kerry unvails his newest position/strategy? Here’s an article I wrote on the media and the election for the magazine The Intellectual Conservative:

Bill- If Kerry runs his whole campaign on the fact that the war in Iraq is going badly then obviously he will take every opportunity to make it look like the war is going -well, badly.
He will be putting himself into a situation where he must have GI’s die for him to score political points. If you don’t see the problem with that from a marketing point of view then I’m afraid I can’t help you.
But then I see you are one of the “Bush lied, people died” crowd so your analytical skill are lacking anyway.
