A thirty-minute docu? I think it's going to start bumping up against outrage-fatigue. If this gets spun as just more shit from the Mad Swifties, he's gonna get the sympathy vote from it.

The Switfites lied.

It's about Kerry. Bush can demand equal time. Equal, and good, time.

Let's do a documentary about Bush's accomplishments over the last four years!

Come over to our side and you'll see where the committed people are. It is Bush's fundamental selling point.

Simple-minded concsistency for its own sake is not the same as commitment, although the two are often confused.

Constantly changing one's views in light of opinion polls is not the same as careful, nuanced thought, although Terry McAwful and Joe Lockhart tell me they are one and the same.

A question for the Con side: name five living people to whom you would award the Peace Prize. Note: Kissinger is already taken as a non-ironic answer.

I don't see a difference between the 2.

"Terry McAwful"? I've seen that before. Oh, yeah, the nine million times you've previously posted here about anything relating to the Dems. I guess we've gotten over our crocodile tears for the cheap political name-based shot.

Pete Sessions caught in indecent exposure flap! (No pun intended.)

(Good thing Frost didn't win minority whip if he lost his seat in TX redistricting. I'm just sayin'.)

Putting aside that I asked for five, Mandela won in 1993 and Walesa won in 1983. Back to the drawing board.

The Pope
Maggie Thatcher
Vclav Havel
Bill Gates and the Gates Foundation
Bono
Sir Bob Geldorf
Dr. Charles Lee and Falun Gong

Need I go on?

Now why don't you do the same? I'm sure you can find at least 5 more anti-US types equally as abhorrent as President Carter
