Hank, this is one of the reasons that they trotted out Dole with a (left handed) axe to take swings at the Kerry candidacy.

You got to hand [pun intended] it to Dole, though. 3 purple hearts and he didn't even bleed. LOL!!!!!! You go Bob.

I guess if you like the concentration camp victim look. Actually, no, all she has is an emaciated upper body. She is hippy. And no tits.

From the undelivered letter in defense of Kerry:

"Our pain from seeing these slanderous attacks stems from something much more fundamental, that if one veteran's record is called into question, the service of all American veterans is questioned."

Yeah, rally around Mr. Kerry boys because an attack on him is an attack on all y'all! Except that he already attacked all y'all when he came back!

Do they shoot Republicans in Canada or is it safe for me to go there as a political missionary?

Man Found Not Guilty of Decapitating Mother

ROLLING MEADOWS, Ill. — A 28-year-old man accused of decapitating his mother and displaying her head on the front porch of their home because he believed she was Satan was acquitted

From today's Chron:

"There are too many secrets" and maybe too many secret-makers, said Rep. Christopher Shays, R-Conn., chairman of the Government Reform Committee's national security panel. There are 3,978 officials who can stamp a document "top secret," "secret" or "confidential" under multiple sets of complex rules.

No one knows how much is classified, he said, and the system "often does not distinguish between the critically important and comically irrelevant."

In light of W's purported lack of intellectual curiosity, this quote could be taken in a different way than Shays means it:

"This administration believes the less known the better," added the Connecticut Republican, noting sadly he was speaking of a GOP administration. "I believe the more known the better."

But aside from cheap double entendres, there's a bunch of other good things in this article (including a reference to pisco sours). I especially like this anecdote, which gives new meaning to the term "selective declassification":

Some classifications were made in error or to save face.

The CIA deleted the amount Iraqi agents paid for aluminum tubes from page 96 of a Senate report on prewar intelligence. The report quoted the CIA as concluding, "Their willingness to pay such costs suggests the tubes are intended for a special project of national interest."

That price turned out to be not so high. On page 105 of the same Senate report, the same security reviewers let CIA's figure -- up to $17.50 each -- be printed twice, along with other estimates that the Iraqis paid as little as $10 apiece.

10 Nobel economists endorse Kerry
Experts criticize Bush's 'reckless and extreme course'

The Nobel Prize is, in fact, for the cultural elite. I'm guessing this won't sway the average Bush voter, who probably thinks the Nobel is conferred by the UN.

What's worse, this will probably be the subject of an upcoming BC'04 ad.

"Kerry. Endorsed by Kim Il Sung, the French, and now .... Nobel Prize Winning Economists. 10 of them!"

How coordinated are the Bush-Cheney folks and the Swift Veterans? So coordinated that they have a lawyer working to make sure they aren't coordinated.

From the MA Supreme Court

• Court: Lesbian Can Forgo Child Support
  
  BOSTON (AP) - A woman who agreed to have a child with her lesbian partner, but split up with the mother before the baby's birth, cannot be forced to pay child support, the state's highest court ruled Wednesday.
  
  The split ruling by the Supreme Judicial Court - which legalized gay marriage in a landmark ruling last year - comes in the case of a Hampshire County lesbian couple, identified in court documents as "T.F." and "B.L.," who lived together from 1996 to 2000.
  
  B.L. at first resisted T.F.'s wishes to have a child, but later changed her mind.
  
  The couple broke up after T.F. got pregnant by artificial insemination. After the baby was born, T.F. sued her former partner for child support. A Probate and Family Court judge turned to the state Appeals Court, which in turned passed the case the case up to the Supreme Judicial Court.
  
  Associate Justice Judith A. Cowin wrote that the informal agreement between the two women to have a child together did not constitute an enforceable contract, and B.L. can't be forced to pay child support.

I know you are your own man and probably don't want my advice, but i'd just say, this message could be more effective if delivered by Max cleland.

Is Josh going to also insist Joe Sandler, lawyer for both the DNC and MoveOn.org, a group running anti-Bush ads, publicly resign?

Mr. Sandler recently said there is nothing wrong with serving in both roles at once. "Attorneys are ethically bound to maintain attorney-client confidentiality, and could lose their law licenses if they violate that," he said.

The increasing hypocrisy on the left is pathetic.

Kerry publicly calls Bush AWOL but then when called out on his own embellished service record, he calls it a "smear" and sends Max "don't play with grenades while heading to the beer bash" Cleland to go cry foul.

You guys persist in creating these Kevin Bacon-ish steps to tie the Swifties to the President when you have hundreds of people like Joe Sandler doing the exact same thing.

eta: Michigan Rep. John Dingell has now sent a letter asking Attorney General John Ashcroft to investigate the possible "illegal coordination" between the two.

Having watching John F. Personality on Stewart last night, its no wonder this dullard won't discuss policy - or anything for that matter. Vietnam was probably the only interesting thing he's done in the last 40 years, other than marrying Zsa Zsa.

Boy oh boy, where to begin:

Mayor Daley says the Tribune's editor (or something like that) should have his moth sealed shut.

William Kennedy Smith is accused of another sexual assault in a lawsuit.

The Dave Matthews Band dumped its waste on citizens of and visitors to the great democratic city. They mayor still thinks its a great band. Need one guess their likely political leanings?

Is there anything worse to be in this world than a Chicago democrat?
