I'm watching it right now, and Shakespeare comes to mind, specifically Macbeth: It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. I can't wait to see a transcript of this, because listening to Kerry actually speak could be used as an anesthetic in hospitals for major surgery. *UPDATE* OK, […]
New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson on "Fox News Sunday": John Kerry has been very clear on Iraq. Someone's let Richardson in on Kerry's "secret plan" -- unfortunately, no one else gets to see it. It's been put in a lockbox.
Things like this just tick me off -- whoever does it. Three-year-old Sophia Parlock cries while seated on the shoulders of her father, Phil Parlock, after having their Bush-Cheney sign torn up by Kerry-Edwards supporters on Thursday, Sept. 16, 2004, at the Tri-State Airport in Huntington, W.Va. Democratic vice presidential candidate John Edwards made a […]
When I saw this in the Sunday paper, my blood began to boil. Sen. John F. Kerry vowed Saturday to "fight tooth and nail" to ensure every African American vote was counted in the November election, saying Democrats would not "stand by and allow acts of voter suppression." The Democratic presidential nominee stepped up criticism […]
One of the commentors over at Little Green Footballs had an interesting take on the document story vis a vis the Kerry campaign. After all, as the New York Times coverage of the "web of connections" between the Swift Boat Vets demonstrates, anything bad that happens to one campaign is without question orchestrated by the […]
If today's faked documents weren't bad enough, the Democrats have sent out Vietnam era veteran Sen. Tom Harkin to attack President Bush, again. Yes, that's the same Tom Harkin who repeatedly lied years ago about serving in Vietnam, when it turns out he was based in Japan and if he was ever in Vietnam it […]
No, it's not one of those made-up critics quotes for the next Hollywood blockbuster, rather it is the media's coverage of President Bush's service in the Air National Guard. Let's ignore the fact that the mainstream media dismisses the Swift Boat Vets for Truth as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bush campaign, yet 60 Minutes […]
According to Editor & Publisher a grand total of nine reporters were arrested and held for varying periods of time during last week's Republican National Convention. The reporters held for the longest period of time were not credentialed and weren't from major, mainstream publications. The kicker to this whole story, however is the complaint that […]
Today's Boston Globe article on President Bush's National Guard service during the Vietnam era is Exhibit A in a double standard in the mainstream media. Let's set aside for a moment that Bush has ordered the Pentagon to make available to the press all of his military service records and Sen. John Kerry has not. […]
You expect this sort of thing from the fever swamps of Democratic Underground and the like, but newspaper editors need to learn to just say "no." As I watched Tuesday night's network coverage of the unrelenting political propaganda hour known as the Republican National Convention, the first thought that came to mind was of old […]
