I'm not talking about the term starting Jan. 20, 2005, for George W. Bush. The barking moonbats over at Daily Kos, completely nuts with the defeat of John Kerry, have suggested a "tactic" to continue their attacks on Bush's legitimacy. Second, gut any Bush hopes for legitimacy. Find the places in Florida and Ohio and […]
Just got a pre-recorded phone call from the Governator inviting me to a Saturday rally against various propositions at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. Schwarzenegger claimed to be traveling up and down the state campaigning -- a typical Republican lie -- while he's stumping for President Bush in Ohio. The real news is that this phone […]
Let's set out a couple of facts about Republicans and the military. Unlike some on the left, Republicans have an extremely high degree of respect for those who've chosen to serve their country. The morale of those in the military is important to Republicans. For these two reasons, Republicans would be the very last ones […]
Before each of the presidential debates this year, the New York Times editorial page has invited some noteworthy and some not-at-all noteworthy individuals to pose hypothetical questions for President Bush and Senator John Kerry. Unfortunately, the questions the Times' first feature are no longer available online. But my distinct impression after having read them was […]
I watched the Cheney/Edwards debate. Didn't have the energy or inclination to blog about it after working a 12-hour shift -- half of it sitting in a classroom learning all about the wonders of Adobe InDesign. [Looks like a good, powerful program -- as it should for what they're charging for it.] On the debate, […]
President Bush volunteered to go to Vietnam as part of a military operation called "Palace Alert." Evidence here and here. That is all.
I'm nearly finished reading Hugh Hewitt's latest book with the extremely unwieldy title of "If it's not close they can't cheat: Crushing the Democrats in every election and why your life depends on it." Overall the book is pretty good. You can read it in easy-to-digest bites and, despite the title it's pretty independent and […]
The New York Times reports that the "60 Minutes" segment that was bumped two weeks ago to make way for the infamous forged documents piece is being held until after the election. The Times cites a Newsweek report that claims CBS producers now feel they cannot criticize President Bush prior to the election because of […]
Julian Sanchez points out that the outrageous Dick Cheney quote from yesterday isn't quite as outrageous as the press has made it seem. As I read this, he's not saying the danger is that if we elect Kerry, then the danger is that we'll be attacked. He's saying that if we elect Kerry and we're […]
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. […]
