This is all so macabre ... a little bit of gallows humor stuck out to me when I read this, describing Kerry as a young lieutenant:

Galanti said he didn't know Kerry's name then, although he had seen a newspaper photograph while in captivity that showed someone who looked like Lurch (a character in The Addams Family television show in the mid-sixties). ...

So he looked like Lurch even as a young man.

<< If John McCain personally wants to forgive John Kerry ... that is his prerogative. For him to condemn others who [Can not and/or will not] .... is appalling. >>

John McCain did it again.

#22 great stuff.

The empty-suited and room-temparature-IQd John Kerry branch of the "DemocRATic" potty is but the self-annointed-elitist branch of the Rich-Soros wing of the Socialist International -- and represents only the pure evil manifest in that wing.

Which evil's envy-motivated hatred-engined and rage driven un-and-anti-American psychopathologically-hesperophobic intentions, given its head, would make the paled-into-insignofigance-by-comparison activities of the Moscow and Peking wings that own operate control and pull the strings of the treasonous KKKartah-KKKling Tong empty suits -- and the activities of the late Usama bin Ladin, the Taliban and al-Queda -- seem like Boy Scouts' outings.

Blessings -- Brian

I heard O'Reilly today talking about having Steve Gardner on tonight. It was very obvious O'Reilly already has his mind made up, and doesn't see any proof the Swiftboat Vets are right. He said, "All the proof is on Kerry's side."

On tonight's O'Reilly, the ratfink said, "Who cares if Kerry lied about Cambodia? He was against the war!" He pretty much left that thought right there, without elaborating. Well, how about this, Mr. O'Reilly? This man wants to be President of the United States, and you admit that he lied about being in Cambodia because he was against the war effort? In other words, he wanted to use that to hurt the war effort, right? You still think that's no big deal?

Thanks. Here is another.

Leaving on His Jet Plane

Leaving on a Jet Plane



JohnDenver

All his records sealed, he’s ready to go.
He’s flipped and flopped, as we well know.
But we must now wake up,
And say goodbye.
Now the light is shining,
It’s a new morn.
His bus is waiting,
He’s holding corn.



Already he’s so funny,
I could cry.


So wave bye, don’t look at me,
Turn around and really flee.
Told you that, you really need to go.



He’s leaving, on his jet plane.
We all hope, he won’t be back again.
Oh John, we wish you’d go.



There’s so many times, he’s lied, we found.
We all just wish, he would leave town.
The words he says, they don’t mean a thing.
Everything he says, a lie to you.
As he flips and flops a time or two.
When he leaves town, much sunshine it will bring.



So wave bye, don’t look at me,
Turn around and really flee.
Told him that, he really needs to go.



We all hope, he won’t be back again.
Oh John, we wish you’d go.

Now the time has passed we’re tired of you.
Please be gone we won’t miss you.
We’ll hold the door, you get on your way.
Think about the time will come.
You will see that you are dumb.



We’ll recall the day we got to say.



So wave bye, don’t look at me,
Turn around and really flee.
Told him that, he really needs to go.



He’s leaving, on his jet plane.
We all hope, he won’t be back again.
Oh John, we wish you’d go.

I hate to rain on your parade, but everyone-and I mean EVERY LAST PERSON-who is going to vote against Kerry on this issue is already a Bush voter, and has been a Bush voter for a long, long time.

Kerry will be beaten over being the most liberal US Senator and over his policy votes, or he won't be beaten at all.

No, I'm not buying this. Certainly there is more polarization than before but there are still plenty of folks who are not that mad at Bush, who normally tow the Democratic party line, but who would be swayed by info like this if they actually received it. Fewer than in other elections, perhaps, but still, there are some.

Thank you. I say serious things in a funny way. That makes it sting more to the humorless left. Frequently trolls from DU come over copy one of my posts and repost at DU then they have a hate fest over it.

The first time someone gave me a link, I was astounded. It was like I was a Bush Cabinet member or something. Conspiracy Guy, Secretary of Humor and Tomfoolery.

It is they who should forgive us. They did nothing to apologize for. We, collectively, did. We turned our backs on them.

I will not commit this same sin twice.

AMEN TO THAT.

John O'Neill on Hannity tonight, Tuesday, August 10, according to press group in Houston. I hope so. Last night was a disaster.
