As Mark Steyn writes this morning, election time is always bad to announce an ill-considered quip. Especially the Nuancy Boy pronouncemrent from John Kerry about the U.S military's intelligence or lack of it. His quip is more of a statement on the Left's lack of comprehension about the vital role soldiers play in preserving America's freedoms both abroad and at home.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus

The left still doesn't understand that it's the soldier who guarantees every other profession -- the defeatist New York Times journalist, the anti-American college professor, the insurgent-video-of-the-day host at CNN, the hollow preening blowhard senator. Kerry's gaffe isn't about one maladroit Marie Antoinette of the Senate but a glimpse into the mind-set of too many Americans.

Did anyone read the remark by Dan K. Thompson, in a recent issue of USA Today?

I loved the last two lines:

"Even if he meant only to imply that Bush was stupid, he had to have been aware that the president's record at Yale University was better than his....Under the circumstances, he should not be making jokes about intellectual acuity."
