The only mistake Kerry's made is his predictable gutless quasi-apology. I knew what he meant. You knew what he meant. Everyone with enough brains to know not to enlist in the fucking Army these days knew what he meant. His point was very sharp and properly nasty for this election season. He could have shoved it right down the fucking GOP's throat when they came back with that tired and utterly disingeneuous charge that he was insulting soldiers. But instead of saying "I meant what I said - this war is being fought with the blood of people the GOP doesn't care about, and are being manipulated/forced into service," he apologized.

Since I missed his apology, I just took a look at the Washington Post, which doesn't say anything about it. Instead, it quotes Kerry as saying:
- "I make apologies to no one about my criticism of the President and his broken policy that kills and maims our heroes in Iraq every single day. This pathetic attempt to distort a botched joke about President Bush is a shameful effort to distract from a botched war."
You're mailing it in today, aren't you?
