What does the law say? What constitutes illegal collusion?
Poor pitiful John Kerry. I'd expect that the whole Swift Boat issue was anticipated by their campaigners. They knew this stuff would come up (O'Neal has been around) and all Kerry talked about for months was Vietnam. So the dems figured they'd use the issue to make John Kerry "the victim". The whole Democratic party loves "a victim". Remember poor Bill Clinton? Those mean nasty right-wingers were beating up on him. Now we have poor John Kerry, the victim of Republican "attack ads". And of coruse the media being a bunch of frustrated fiction writers all love Dickens and Dickensian characters. The Democrats being the party of "victims" comply and parade a bunch of poor pittiful characters in front of the camera. Let's see can we name all the victims... Didn't the Clinton's highlight some woman who lost her health isurance. And Al Gore had a "can woman"? Of course Max Cleland is the current victim of evil Republicans. Any more?
Also, on H & C last night, Colmes addressed a transcript in which O'Neill supposedly tells Nixon he was in Cambodia. O'Neill replied that he was not in Cambodia and the next line in the transcript says that he was not. Anyone know what that is all about?
Maybe, if we ever defeat this enemy, there will again be a place for Bobbby Sherman and David Cassidy.
Let's not forget the all-time greatest poster!
As opposed to sending Cleland there to kick the president's a**.
Collusion is when two or more persons have a meeting of the minds with the goal of somehow pissing me off.
"Vets at VA hospitals often have limited reading materials, a wonderful gift is to donate your Unfit for Command to you local VA medical center and state run veterans homes so that our fellow brothers and heros will know more about John Kerry before the November election. "
I saw that. Textbook liberal media trying to gin up dissent where there isn't any. Claire Shipman was pathetic tryiung to gin it up.
BTW, how come no ping list?
Oh, the tingly feelings of youth!
This kind of desperation politics would normally be condemned by elected officials, on either side of the aisle, let's see how the media reports it.
I can't wait to see how Bush handles this. Cleland isn't going alone..Rassman (sp) is going with him. This is a Secret Service call at the ranch gate, isn't it? You know Cleland will bring his cameras and reporters, you know the traveling White House press corps will report every detail.
but will the media report how dangerous a precedent this sets, how much it impacts the Secret Service. Has the Kerry campaign even considered how this will encourage copy cat protestors to invade the Bush ranch.
this is reckless, this is dangerous, this is incredibly bad judgement by John F. Kerry, the man who wants to run our country.
GMA ping to the Today Show ping list.
Thanks for pointing out the lack of a ping list. I actually thought I had pinged it, but when I went back I see that I only succeeded in pinging it . . . to myself! Mistake now corrected.
And yes, wasn't Claire Shipman playing the good little liberal soldier, trying to pick a fight between Dick Cheney and W?
I know there must be a pony in here somewhere.
There certainly is. Even when the MSM think they're helping Kerry by claiming the story has turned, they're still keeping it on the front burner and reminding people about it. Every minute spent discussing the issue is one minute keeping Kerry on the defensive.

Yep and the usual handwringing "concern" by Gibson over how this will affect the convention, yada, yada, yada.
VP Cheney hasn't stated anything different and supports the President's actions in making sure that gay marriage isn't shoved down the nation's throat by unelected judicial edict.
Good one!
"We have totally defeated the Swift Boat Veterans. Go to the airport! You will see! We are in control! The Swift Boat Veterans are fleeing for their lives! We will utterly annihilate them! Pay no attention to the sagging opinion polls standing behind my right shoulder. We will obliterate them!"
The alphabets have not been intersted in this story until they could spin it Kerry's way, so I am not surprised if this story DOES begin to benefit Kerry. Let's face it Bush has the fight of his life on his hands, and if he wins this election, it will be a true miracle.
Uh . . .
