If the libs cannot get W to fight dirty against them, they will do it for him. Just repeat the lie often enough....

[Mr. Mojo]

The lamestream media doesn't even pretend to be objective anymore.

[Paul Atreides]

Methinks that Kerry and his friends do protest too much about his patriotism.

[LiteKeeper]

INTREP - Black is white; and, evil is good - in the mind of this idiot!

[Ronly Bonly Jones]

“impugning John Kerry’s Vietnam era guts and patriotism.”

Which is impossible as he had neither guts NOR patriotism. How can you slime what has, under objective observation, never been seen in 30 years?

Kerry is a traitor, and so is this CBS swine who should be sent to the Sudan to see what the islamists do to people like him.

[uncbob]

Unfortunately for Meyer’s premise, top Republicans have actually praised, not impugned, Kerry’s military service.

Unfortuntely the GOP doesn't have the gonads to go after this phoney's REAL RECORD

[KellyAdmirer]

Ok, Mr. Meyer, how about we rail against admitted war criminal John Kerry then?

[Conspiracy Guy]

Never confuse the left with facts.

It is me that keeps blasting Kerry. But since George W. Bush is the President, he should apologize.

[blanknoone]

There is no media bias.
There is no media bias.
There is no media bias.

Surely this professional journalist sets aside his personal biases in the conduct of reshaping the world to his twisted worldview...er, uh, um...reporting the news in an unbiased manner.

I never watch CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN and many others. I made a point last night of putting my TV on the History Channel during the final Friends show. I was outside on the deck not even watching TV but I wanted the cable company to know that I wasn't watching that, NBC crap either.

[A.A. Cunningham]

From Against the Grain, Meyer's inbox:

"A few others wanted to know if I was ever in the military and said that if I wasn't I had to right to pontificate. I wasn't in the military. I was too young for Vietnam by a few years and never volunteered. What does that have to do with my freedom to bloviate on this topic?

[dead]

Many of the 'nays’ pointed out that no one in Bush-Cheney officialdom explicitly used the word 'unpatriotic’ about Kerry. Maybe so, but not only is that suggestion implicit -- perhaps subliminal?

Yes, Dick, they’re beaming the message into your brain through infared flashing lights and gamma rays guns.

[SpinyNorman]

For the record, I don’t think the biographical questions about Kerry -- or Bush -- are irrelevant sideshows that obscure the great debates of the day. I think they’re important to voters. They’re important to me. I want to know if Kerry lied a little about throwing away his medals, or why he wouldn’t 'fess up to a youthful exaggeration if he did. I want know if Bush really did blow off months of his National Guard stint.

Isn't it amazing how Bush's NG record, which the liberals and their media monkeys claim is inconsequential as it does not have the Vietnam combat stamp of approval (which didn't exist for Clinton), is important enough to splash all over the front pages of liberal newspapers and the blighted nightly news?

Yet Kerry, lying about atrocities, claiming to have committed his own, and lying about nearly everything else in his military career, topping it off with bugging out of Vietnam, leaving his so-called "band of brothers" behind, is relegated to the inconsequential.

Yep, no bias here!

All I have to say is summed up neatly in an article by a RESPECTED journalist, Fred Barnes http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/05/03/opinion/main615239.shtml

[marlon]

It just dawned on me we now have a great argument when the left tries this argument, as they do on a daily basis. We can say, so what you're saying is that those soldiers in Iraq that mistreated the prisoners are fit to be commander-in-chief since they have served in the military and no one dare call then unpatriotic!

I made a point last night of putting my TV on the History Channel during the final Friends show.

Nah. That doesn't do any good. You gotta steal it.

Record the show you'd like to watch and then fast-forward through the commercials.

That'll stick it to them! ;-)
