Hi nopardons,Where you going girlfriend.
Going sleepy byes.See you soon. :-)
Night.
It looks to be about 5%. And Rove is no genius. Bush won despite Rove and others. They not only insisted that he SLAM the Swifties, in deference to that loser, McCain, but that he begin talking about 'gay partnerships' just days before 'gay marriage' was defeated on eleven ballots around the country, which some think help explain part of why Bush got so many votes from those who showed up to vote on such propositions.
That horrible miscalculation - ALONE - could have cost the GOP the election.
Coulda, shoulda, woulda. Whatever.
I swear, the über-Right can't be satisfied with a win no matter what.
If you win the Superbowl 33-32, you still get the ring.
Bush was not there with these vets on those boats..That is why he did not run with it..and you can second guess it all you want but that group could not become a part of the campaign as it would have given them LESS credibility..
There were people in the swift boat group who were dems, like John O'Neill.
These men were dismissed, called liars by some in the press and who came out winning?..They did..Kerry lost which was a partial victory..They will continue to work on this campaign for truth...They did not do it for Bush..They did it for TRUTH!

Ooooh. W '04 Road Crew jacket. Imagine how much you'd get on eBay...
Read Horowitz. The candidate should remain above the fray, and let his allies butcher his opponents. The attack on Kerry by the SBVs was perfectly orchestrated (remember, Rove and Horowitz are good friends).
Moreover, the SBVs are the worst sort of enemies that Kerry could have made - and the ones he most thoroughly deserves. I'm going to enjoy watching them pursue him - because they will, and with any luck the #$%^&! will wish he'd stayed in his Commie schumerhole of Massatwobits and never run for President.
From what I've heard, it was Karl Rove that chose GWB.
Thank you, as you have just made my point. Rove had nothing to do with the Swift Boat Vets as we all know.
If you remember, Bush and Rove were continually producing his National Guard papers. The Bush campaign was going nowhere until the Swift Boat Vets came to the rescue.
My husband is blind and he had no problem "seeing" good vs evil.
There you go!
Shelby CO, TN? My sister used to live in Memphis when she was married. Lamar & Winchester, I believe. Near Germantown.
As we often said at work, "The Bush team is playing chess while the Kerry team was playing checkers." It was great to see the libs crumble at the reality of Kerry losing. After all his initials were JFK. That alone to them was a sure thing.
I'm not sure where this Old Wives Tale got started but the popular vote margin is 3% not 5% - about a 3.5 million margin and 116 million votes currently. It is hard for me to believe that the absentee count will increase this by another 2 million.
Lots of praise to go around. Much work to be done.
Yes!
