We rise, unaccustomed, in defense of Vice President Dick Cheney.
Cheney told a campaign-trail audience Tuesday that if the Democrats win the White House, "the danger is we'll get hit again" by terrorists. A vote for John Kerry, in other words, is a vote for more terrorism.
Nasty, to be sure. But in a campaign where charges and countercharges (mainly, in our view, those coming from the Republican side) are surging way past the merely nasty to the utterly vile and brazenly dishonest, making distinctions is important.
The war on terrorism is the central issue in the campaign, and both parties' candidates have various points to make about it. But the issue boils down to one question: Which candidate would do the best job, as president, of making sure that we don't "get hit again." That is what people really care about.
Sens. Kerry and John Edwards have been criticizing President Bush's performance on terrorism since 9/11 and promising to do a better job at it if given the chance. In doing so, they surely mean to suggest that the risk of another terrorist attack will be greater if Bush and Cheney win the election. A vote for George W. Bush, in other words, is a vote for more terrorism. Or if Kerry and Edwards don't mean that, it's hard to know what they do mean.

This one really blows my mind.
and hell freezing over?
(Sid is in the news again, so I figured that I'd take this opportunity to make one of my rare posts!)
Perhaps . . . someone at the LA Times, finally, I don't know what . . . GETS IT!?
Someone will get in trouble for this.

It shouldn't...if Kerry wins, Hillary loses. Put that into the equation and see how it computes...

It was worth repeating (although I didn't mean to...)
Sorry.
I think this is a forgery.
You can say that again.
Bump, and watching for flying pigs.
Kerry and his minions have been saying since before Saddam's removal -- no scratch that, since the before the Taliban's removal -- that GWBush would create more terrorists by not appeasing them and/or leaving it to the UN to formulate America's defense.
After the fact, they are saying that Dubya has created more terrorists by making them mad at us. [We all know how effective the previous president's terrorist policies were.]
They have been gloating over every single soldier lost in Iraq, implying that the world would be a better place if Saddam were still in power.
The clear implication from the Demos is that Bush had put us more at risk. They know that they are weak in this area and react hysterically to any criticism thereapon.
What comes around goes around.
The truth hurts.

I just finished reading this in the early bird, and checked my pulse, I was not dead. Well, LA Times, now you have a high bar to follow.

"Be on the lookout for flying pigs!"
And fairies wear boots too. You gotta believe me!
Sabbath!!!
I was wondering how long that would take. :)
Trivia: Ozzy wrote the lyrics after one of his bandmates (think it was Geezer) made a comment on the foot fashions of the "poofter" community in London. After he remarked "the Fairies in this town are all wearing boots" Ozzy took it from there...
