What the Republicans are now trying to do is sickening. Manufacturing some outrage about Kerry outing Mary Cheney, who has been out for almost two decades? Do the think we didn't see the vice presidential debate just a couple of days earlier when Cheney and Edwards talked about it? Or Cheney using his own daughter to deflect heat of the same-sex marriage issue a couple of months back. The hypocrisy makes me ill.
The adminstration spends so much time on these political games. Feigning outrage, manipulating the media, outing CIA agents, firing generals, disgracing people. All that takes a lot of time. Wouldn't it simply be easier to do the right thing? Wouldn't it be easier to make the right choice? George got all cowboy after 9/11 and decided to attack a country that was contained, hadn't attacked us and presented no threat to us. It was a mistake. Why didn't he do his homework and simply avoid the mistake in the first place? Then the administration wouldn't have to spend 90% of it's time manufacturing scandal to try and win the election, they could run on their record.
Posted by jherr at October 17, 2004 10:57 AMI so wish you had been involved in politics during the Clinton administration so you could have recorded all of their deceit and shameful ploys for all of us to enjoy.
And, God forbid, your guy wins in November (or January, however long this thing drags out, since the DEMOCRATS have laywers in the swing states, already launching a pre-emptive strike to discredit the election - even if there is no indication of any discrepancies in the election process, according to a DNC memo - GOD I hope it's a landslide either way) will you be as critical to his administration?
