this ridiculous set of "questions" concerning kerry's war record is yet another karl rove special, served up brown and steaming on a bun, with total impunity.
it is not like there is any mystery about where it came from....
yet there are folk who are more than willing to bite right in.
i do not understand it.
you would think that, by now, the modus operandi of mr rove would be obvious enough that the "messages" themselves would fall flat.
what is the bushline in this campaign?
vote out of fear
change is bad, change is scary
bush is present in a manner of speaking, your vacant guide to the "war on terror"--the absurdity of the "war" itself makes change even more scary.
at any rate, it would not do to have someone at the helm in who understands anything about war. no, for a ridiculous undertaking like this, you need a ridiculous little man--besides, he is familiar in a kinda of captain kangaroo way, and you liked captain kangaroo even if you would not have watched him to get shakespeare or even anything intelligent--nonetheless, there is something reassuring about seeing him in his goofball outfits and with his patriotic props--and there is something endearing about his awkwardness with things like language and not being on vacation...
change is scary: the irrational, idiotic policies of this administration are legitimate because they exist.
having nothing to say to justify the present administration, feeling that justification unnecessary, karl rove has organized what you are now getting.
what a guy.
what a perfect example of how conservativism really works.
karl rove, american hero.
