Brownie, I've noticed that in almost all of the history I read about John Kerry it is rarely mentioned that he was the Lt Governor under Dukakis. Why is that? Do you know how long he acted in that capacity and what his record during that time was? Maybe we need to examine it a bit more carefully since Kerry never talks about it.

Oops....I don't think I said that right. He wasn't the Lt Governor, was he?

Was Kerry involved in the special release program for prisoners?

I Don't know what his political background is. I found this on Encarta.

Although Kerry's new job had little authority, he used it as a platform for favorite issues, including his call for environmental controls on power plant emissions that caused "acid rain" to fall on Massachusetts. (Kerry served under Michael Dukakis, who in 1988 ran for president against George H. W. Bush.....)

Now you know as much as I do. Acid rain. LOL!!

With the money from his first rich wife he financed his campaign for the Lieutenant Governorship of Massachusetts, and as such he supported Governor Dukakis' prison work release program which put Willie Horton back on the streets to recidivate. This wasn't a good program, as Al Gore pointed out in his unsuccessful bid for the presidential nomination in 1988.

That's what I thought but I really am sketchy on the details.

Thanks for pinging your list to FR's own chapter whose sole purpose is to combat/expose/repudiate the utopian dreamers in the MSM. "Teenagers in Suits" is my take on the newsies generally.

Dan Rather has been served a healthy dose of reality recently that could usher in the final phase of how people view the Rathers of the world. And maybe more importantly, how they came to be. What continues to drive their agendas in the face of declining audiences and subscribers? Add to that, many reputable research groups' findings that a majority of Americans no longer trust what the newsies have to say. THAT'S telling. You'll recall one of Winston Churchill's famous quotes: "Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened".

The empty MSM suits could learn a few things from recent developments, but for whatever reasons, they'll likely pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened.

This is also a difficult subject to research as actual involvement by Kerry on Horton is mostly in the bloggesphere..I did find only one blogger who seemed to have done some research and he/she said:

"as U. S. Senator, he DID defend Dukakis when Dukakis came under fire for it. But his endorsement of his boss's program of what came to be known as "weekend passes for murderers" was, to my best knowledge, more nominal and peripheral than central and decisive.

There was actually something about the release of prisoners who shouldn't have been released. I need to do some research on this. Thanks for your input.
