I like especially the remark about Kerry's "four month in Vietnam" in relation to President Bush's remarkable success there.

LOL how low can you sink ...

Homophobia and the Frenchophobic shtick all rolled into one uptight, nasty bit of non-humour ... the whole "monsieur" Kerry thing alone! if this is the voice of the American right, they deserve to lose on points of style and sympathy alone ...

Remember when Tory chairwoman Theresa May called her own party "the nasty party", in an attempt to warn her flock of the way it started to look? Yeah. Xactly.

One compliment tho. In terms of compacting as many out-there smear insinuations into as concise a condensation of words as possible, its a diligent piece of agitprop ...

He acquired all those medals in just four months?

That's amazing, isn't it?

Until quite recently I thought Bush would win. But the polls, Michael Moore and articles like this suggest to me the tide is turning.

You mean to quote from The Washington Times?


Well, sometimes you have to quote even such papers, if only to prove, like Foxfyre certainly wanted, the low level of such a paper, here with the words of its editor in chief.

to contrast with the chilly Republican images projected by George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, who keep their legs crossed and their hands to themselves at all times. No one imagines George W. inspecting Dick Cheney's cheek for razor burn in anticipation of a friendly kiss to greet the day.


Now are we talking the same Dick Cheney who had to hold Bush's hand in their 9.11 testimony?

Is this the same Dick Cheney that ran the country after 9.11 because his little bushie sat frozen in the classroom not knowing what to do? I mean know one told him where to go, what to say and Cheney was too busy.

Of course there's a chilly image do you often take your brain out and talk to it? and we all know that Cheney is Bush's brain.

That was from its editor in chief?!

Shocked

OK, there's one newspaper I'll never take seriously again.

Imagine that, say, the NYTimes (just to come up with one of those much-maligned liberal media), wrote an editorial full of tasteless puns on Bush's sexuality, foreign loyalties, etc. Imagine the outrage. Yet we are still to believe newspapers like this one provide a reasonable alternative to the "liberal media"? Way out ...

It is really very simple. Kerry brought Edwards in as veep candidate in order to counter the perception of him as a stolid, anal retentive, dullard. One of the few things that the political naif Edwards has going for him is "charisma" (you should pardon the expression).

When the two of them were running in the primaries for president, it was obvious that the two of them didn't particularly care for each other. Now they are joined at the hip.

It's all hype, kids. But the media will have a blast with the pics!

I dunno but this kind of rhetoric gives off an "insecure of ones masculine side or threat to it" kind of ring.

Really is this the kind of issues the Republicans are going to run on? The " I am uncomfortable with men being that close" platfrom. Rolling Eyes

It's interesting. I really wonder what the effect (if any) the pics will have on the swing voters. I still think that many men are uncomfortable, if not completely turned off, by obvious shows of physical affection between two men, whether it is genuine or not. Other people, who may see through the staged affection as an obvious political ploy, may be turned off too. Most of the folks who are comfortable with the pictures, IMO, would have voted for Kerry anyway.

[quote]Really is this the kind of issues the Republicans are going to run on?[/quote]

If the Republicans are smart, there will be no comment about this from them.

Stay tuned!

I think the White House is pleasantly surprised, laughing its collective arse off. Why do the Republicans to "do" anything right now?

They're gaining in the polls simply because of the Keystone Cops element of the Dem ticket! Save it for the fall.
