KERRY TOAST??? HE'S IN THE TOASTER

Kerry! How did this meltdown come to pass? Kerry ain't a bad guy. He went to Viet Nam when tons of other chickenshits refused to go and sent others to die in their places. He's won lots of elections fair and square. He's a Lefty, but so what? How can a minor thing like a possibly questionable purple heart and tossing medals (ribbons) over the White House fence as a symbolic protest against the Viet Nam War be turning out this way? Fake a Purple Heart? Lots of guys did it so they could go home early. Lots. In other wars guys shot themselves in the foot. Before I headed overseas I saw a guy in my barracks jump off a top bunk onto one foot til he broke his fucking ankle in about four places and was crippled for life. Maybe Kerry was playing the game but at least he was actually shot by the enemy.

A campaign is like a fifteen round fight without either fighter having a one punch knockout capability. Each will presumably have that granite chin. Will be able to take blockbuster punches and come back. The rules of combat state that you never punch yourself out early because it's a fifteen rounder. Well, Kerry and all the other Democrats came out of the gate like a multi-armed mythical God lashing punch after punch upon a hapless president. The Bush hating media reported the holy assault all the way. And that fucking Bush did nothing. He let Kerry and the other Democrats hit him with every punch in the book during the primary campaign without responding one time.

The classic "rope a dope", but it was Kerry who was the dope. The elite media was once again positive that the moron in the White House was too stupid to withstand the attack. Kerry showed every punch he had. Bush showed nothing. When Bush struck back in the fourth round it was Kerry who had no answers but to throw punches Bush knew were coming. He was ready to block and counter punch. We're now only starting round six so Kerry might find a miracle new punch, but I doubt it. His wife is another bomb Bush can detonate at any time. Bush hasn't paraded pictures of the San Francesspool marchers yet. Hasn't really outed all the Left Wing web sites. Hasn't so much as touched Kerry's non existent economic policies. And higher gas taxes, the ultimate get the poor out of cars forever tax, hasn't come up either. Bush hasn't thrown one straight right hand yet.

I think it was the decision to go after Bush on his National Guard Service far beyond what was the truth that gave Bush the first big counter punch. Kerry had Bush on the ropes with that phony charge, as well as the falsehood that the economy was headed into the toilet. Bush struck back. And back. And back. Until Kerry's life SEEMS to be a tissue of lies.

As I related in earlier posts during March when I was in Florida, the Kerry attack was in full swing and the people there were very upset about the economy and everything else about Bush. I left for a week but when I returned the Bush ads had been running for six days. What a change. Those ads are terrific. He carpet bombed the state of Florida. Simple ads. Repetitive themes. Suddenly when Kerry needed to respond and attack, he could only respond. He had punched himself out. He had no positive message to give. When a notorious Bush flogging columnist for the lefty Village Voice is talking about Kerry stepping aside, you know he may have a serious problem. The New York Observer, an ultra liberal but honest paper, is also expressing some doubt about Kerry: "digressions and obfuscations"; "his morose patrician mien and robotic delivery"; when your propaganda machine turns on you it means trouble.

Some serious problems. They have to do with lying. What foreign leaders back him? Who thinks the economy is headed down when every indicator since January shows a boom in the making? He's going to create so many jobs that we will have to have two million Mexicans cross the border to fill them and who believes he will create 10 million jobs? And the medals, the ribbons, the changes in stories. And it's only April. What the hell will he look like in September when Bush actually starts punching? Denise Rich is back with a new funding conviction. And her husband Marc is in play once again too, this time over the Oil for Terror bribes (Claudia Rosett said as much on Fox tonight and has a major piece in the WSJ again today ). Hillary is suddenly a negative.(see my post) Kerry wants to turn Iraq over to the criminally corrupt UN and Bush hasn't thrown that arsenal of punches yet. BTW the latest polls show that the UN is mistrusted by 44 percent of Americans; great timing Dems.

Among those who say they will vote for President Bush this November, 18% have a favorable opinion of the UN while 66% have an unfavorable view.
Among Kerry voters, it's 59% favorable and 21% unfavorable. Those not committed to either candidate are evenly divided--39% favorable and 33% unfavorable.

It looks like we will be protected from missile attack by North Korea so Kerry will have nothing but a short left jab flailing in the breeze there about why he opposed the missile Defense shield.

How did it get to be like this? I don't know, but you just can't be a slippery liar like Clinton when you are a Kerry. And we may not ever want to see another Clinton again.
