I suppose Kerry wants to see form 180s on Admiral Hoffman, John O'Neill, Col. Bud Day and others......to compare his 4 month service with their extensive service and accomplishments.

Like to see that comparison myself....published of course.

The Vietnam War veteran also has come out in favor of a timetable for withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq. But he got precious little support, even among fellow Democrats, in recent Senate debate.

How this whackjob can run again while putting out contradictory bills that get virtually no support from his fellow libs is a mystery. I wonder if he will sign the form 180 this time? I am still waiting....

Kerry's only shot against Hillary is to ok the release of the Barrett Report. Of course he has to weigh that against the very real possibility that Hillary has copies of his actual discharge papers...

To Senator Flip-Flop, every form and every statement is a 180.

It's rare when Democrats give the nomination to a candidate who just failed.

Heh heh heh...too bad...I wish he would be nominated again...the first time was so much fun.

Dole said the climb gets steeper on the next try.

I'll say. He ran out of breath halfway through the last time.

Was that before the Viagra or after?

This time Lurch forget about taking a Swift boat ride into Boston harbor. Break out the wetsuit and windsurf your tall lank into the harbor instead with a Sam Adams in your hand.

"Kerry's only shot against Hillary is to ok the release of the Barrett Report"

Thanks for reminding us. That did drop off the screen rather quickly.

Behind the scenes, Hillary will leak info to her favorite sources and destroy Kerry. That is how she plays the game. Unlike the women and others in 1992, at least Kerry doesn't have to worry about Pellicano.

Still considering all his flaws, he nearly came close to unseating Bush. That says something about the progress of the French Disease in America.

I think it speaks volumes about the poor performance of the Bush team in the last election. The guy was practically "phoning it in," didn't seem all that interested in winning or not.

Don't get me wrong; although I'm not a Bush-bot or even a big fan of Bush, I did stand in a long line to vote for him as I couldn't stand the idea of President Kerry. Yuck, that was hard to type.

BOROWITZ REPORT
Monday, July 03, 2006


Humorist Andy Borowitz is a regular commentator on CNN and National Public Radio. Here is his latest twisted take on the news of the day:

BUSH OPPOSES MARRIAGE BETWEEN A MAN AND A FLAG Constitutional Amendment Could Become Hot-Button Issue for November.



In what many political observers think could become an effective wedge issue in the 2006 midterm elections, President George W. Bush today proposed a constitutional amendment banning marriage between a man and a flag.

In a nationally televised address from the Oval Office, the president said the proposed amendment is intended to protect two embattled American institutions: traditional marriage and the American flag.

"We must define marriage as a union between a man and a woman, and not between a man and a flag," Bush said. "Additionally, just as we seek to protect flags from being burned, we must protect them from being married."

The president’s proposal seemed intended to cause trouble among congressional Democrats, many of whom have no stated opinion on the issue of man-flag unions.

But 2004 Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry was quick out of the box in response to the president’s speech, telling reporters, "Before the end of the day, I intend to have at least three or four different positions on this issue."

On the other side of the aisle, Bush’s proposed amendment received immediate support from Sen. Rick Santorum, R-Pa., who suggested expanding its scope to ban marriage between a man and any inanimate object.

"We should not only forbid marriage between a man and a flag; we should also forbid it between a man and an inflatable love doll," he said, adding quickly, "Not that I know about that sort of thing."

Elsewhere, scientists released a list of the top 10 causes of obesity, including being suddenly fired from The View.
