What am I looking at here?

I'm sure you've all heard the hoopla going on about what Kerry said about the troops lacking education and them ending up in Iraq.<br><br>Why did he say such a thing in this hot political climate right at this point? <br><br>The right wing media has been blitzing this thing all over the place. <br><br>It's obvious that the right (or left) will use anything they can get their hands on to win an election. No mystery there.<br><br>But the mystery is, why did Kerry hand them this little gem?<br><br>Or am I just being paranoid? <br><br>They're going to get play off this "mistake" for days. And the Dems cannot afford to take their eyes off the prize for a moment. <br><br>What am I saying? Both sides suck. I'm talking here as if I really believe we are a republic, as if I don't believe the elections are rigged. <br><br>Even so, I'd like for the Dems to win so that I can see with my own lying eyes that they are one and the same as the Republicans. Because if they do get into power and something is not done about this shit that's been coming down in the past 6 years (and before) I'm going to know, FOR SURE, without a doubt, without relying on messageboards and the lying media and blogs that what I think about them is true. <p></p><i></i>

Wonkette's take -<br><br>GOP Secret Weapon Strikes Again<br><br>Imagine you’re a Top Democrat Strategist looking at this week’s numbers: 13 House races are leaning Dem, along with a half-dozen Senate seats. Republicans are imploding from a seemingly endless supply of lurid scandals, the ceaseless horror of Iraq and a whole lot of depressing intangibles like the housing crash. Not only are the independents and libertarians and swing voters going Dem, but a million or two hardcore Bushbots are likely to stay home because they’re so depressed. What would you do with John Kerry?<br><br>Lock him in a cage and throw away the fucking key.<br><br>Instead, Kerry is doing useless things like attending rallies in California for Phil Angelides, who doesn’t have a chance in hell of kicking Arnold Schwarzenegger out of the governor’s mansion. Worse, Kerry is saying things into microphones. Things like this: “You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.”<br><br>The conservative faithful is roused. Tony Snow has a whole script prepared for today’s spoon-fed question about how John Kerry thinks the troops are morons, talk radio and blogs show the only enthusiasm they’ve managed in a month …. It’s like the White House is paying Kerry to be out in public screwing things up.<br><br>Wait a minute!<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.wonkette.com/">www.wonkette.com/</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br> <p></p><i></i>

Good to see it noted how strangely futile it is to be campaigning for Angelides.<br><br>A generous read of Kerry's antics could be that it's over-compensation, and pandering to the anti-war left he'd alienated. But it also reminds me of something I wrote a couple of years ago: <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Skull and Bones remains to some a silly issue, but an issue it will remain so long as the question "Do you know General Russell?" can send an old boy into a trance faster than "Why don't you pass the time by playing a little solitaire?"</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> <p></p><i></i>

Sunny, <br>I saw a dem on tv last night and he was no better than a neo-con. (I can't remember the state or his name, not from my state) but you know how you get those little moment when the truth just comes shining through to you? Well, the truth is this guy is no better than the worst of what we have now, stands on the same principle and made no secret about it.<br><br>My inner voice said, "WTF?!" when I saw that and honest to goodness, I've never felt more in despair since I woke up to this entire sordid state of affairs the world has become. <br><br>I don't know what to call myself now except a citizen that wants to preserve the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Period. But, I have no choice other than to vote a straight dem ticket. <br><br>The neo-cons are a horse of an entirely different breed than your average republican and now I am see these new Democrats.<br><br>This neo thing creeps me out, it strikes me as a buzz word that doesn't simply mean new, but means a distortion of ideology and doublespeak for "we're going to ravage your political party's agenda once we get control".<br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=pugzleyca3>pugzleyca3</A> at: 10/31/06 10:29 pm<br></i>

"Criticizing Bush's handling of the Iraq "War" misses the point - it's illegal to invade another country preemptively."<br><br>No shit. The Dems are not protesting enough or glomming onto all the gems and outright gimmes that the Republicans have lavished on them. <br><br>Edited to say: wait a minute. Kerry voted for the "war" didn't he? How could he possibly say it was illegal when he condoned it up front, if that is what you are getting at and if I am correct in what I am saying. I'm a bit foggy on just what Congress did when Bush went into Iraq. I'll admit it, I'm suffering from full-blown scandal fatigue. Didn't they authorize him power he should never have gotten when we went into Iraq? Only Congress should be able to take us to war and all that?<br><br>Nevertheless, even without that, they've been handed all the pearls and diamonds a king could want and if their true agenda was to make change, they'd have found a way to diseminate this information and rallied the people way before now.<br><br>But, I'd venture to say, the last thing any politician wants now is to rally the people for real. They only do it for their fake-assed agendas.<br><br>Fuckers, every damn one of 'em.<br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=pugzleyca3>pugzleyca3</A> at: 10/31/06 11:50 pm<br></i>

How bout we just face the fact that in 2004 Kerry was recruited to take the fall. Yeh maybe Kerry didn't really want to do that but he haddd no ccchoice. He didn't want the presidency. He didn't want to be a big shot in govt cos he already had all the power he wanted or needed. But he is a bonesman. And he was faced with going along with Cheney's plan or god knows what he was threatened with. <br><br>All that was sooo obvious at the end when he conceded without a whimper, early early early with NO questions or protest. Then one looks back at the campaign to see the forced arguments he made, the anger he pretended so unconvincingly. Too bad - an actor John Kerry is not.<br><br>So yes hate the traitor, hang him with all the rest.<br> <p></p><i></i>

I am going to make a prediction. Clinton will become president in '08.<br><br>Why do I say this? Because she's already been tapped by Bilderberger years ago according to some information I read a long time ago. It's strange to watch this coming to pass and how it is happening. <br><br>Maybe the dems and republicans and everyone else at the bottom of the totem pole have gotten too loud for the elite and they know if they don't do something now to uncork the bottle the top is going to blow off it. So it's time to give the appearance of change in party control.<br><br>My guess is the Dems will continue the march in trampling the Constitution and Bill of Rights, but with a different face and different spin and with different issues. Issues the republicans are having a hard time justifying right now, such as open borders at a time when they claim we're about to be overrun by terrorists in every hamlet at any moment. Switching horses will keep the elite safe from the masses for another several years and free to continue their march toward the North American Union and one world government. <br><br>The Dems are supposedly against what the Republicans are for. An elite has no party loyalties and the way the system is set up, you would need both parties in office, alternating them at different times, in order to grab the booby prize, which of course, is the erasure of borders and oppression of the people on a worldwide scale.<br><br>One fights terror and snatches your rights, spies on you, etc.<br>The other side opens up immigration and wants to disarm the population. It goes on and on, issue by issue generation after generation until... <br><br>Oh, well, I'm just ranting and probably stating nothing more than the obvious to you, so I'll stop now. <p></p><i></i>
