Look---Issues are the thing.

This entire business of Swift Boats is past history and merely something to obfuscate the issues.   The man was there, the man got a medal, the man disagreed (later) with the war, and proved his worth which GWB did not. He merelyproved influence works. He being GWB---and I do not mean Geo Wahington Bridge.   The man referred to above is, of course, Kerry and not the flight suit renter.   

The point is to focus on issues and not tragic past history that was at least covered in an honest way by Kerry.

The American public votes---thankfully that is still so. Let us keep it that way. Kerry may not be the most dynamic of candidates---things have changed over the years. He is, however, a viable alternative to one who has brought us into chaos with the cry of patriotism. One who never did get the popular vote and (see today's NY Times) had his dear brother help out in the shenanigans---which continue to this day---eliminating Black voters by scare tactics by the State Police.   


Sure--we live in an age of Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee politics, (except for France)where Adolf rears his ugly moustached head.   Though I do say that Chirac is trying to nip this in the bud. Do you think that Ashcroft will grow that little bristle---I doubt it---Goebells never did. Just Adolf.
