If I gave you the answer that I think is the correct one, you'd just get all high and mighty and dismissive with me, so let's not do that.
Edit:
Naw, what the hell:
1. After the AWOL shit, he's not a good deliverer of this particular message;
2. In any event, he gets to stay above the fray. Let Kerry yell about Nam, AWOL, lies - in short, let Kerry be the slanderer - Bush gets to be "above all that tawdry shit";
3. The vets, and the reporters who found chemo-lady, and all the other primary connections, make much better deliverers;
4. The part that I think will make you bellow - I have a much higher opinion of Bush's sense of honor than you do (not a high bar, I know), and I don't think Bush is the type to fight these kinds of battles, in this way. I agree that this has degenerated into a dishonorable campaign, but I am comforted by the fact that youse guyz started it about two years ago. I think he's uncomfortable with it, and isn't going to be spouting off such personally insulting crap.
