Bias... In the Media

The Forged Memo’s, and more bonobory from the Kerry campaign.

The Proxies for the Kerry campaign are attacking Bush on the National Guard. This isn’t like with the swift vets where you could make a “Six degrees of Karl Rove” game out of it. The Chairman of the DNC is an obvious Kerry proxy, as official as unofficial gets.

First of all, if they think this is tit-for-tat, and then it is clear these people are bonobo’s (so as not to insult the chimps out there). George Bush in 1972 was not a good guy, and who says that? George Bush in 2000.

Both Bush and Kerry are running races based in the past, John Kerry’s past is the time he was on that swift boat (maybe even in Cambodia), while George W. Bush’s past is 9-11-01. If I were asked to vote on the pasts they are campaigning on, I’d vote for Bush. At least his past wasn’t that long ago.

But the Kerry campaign thinks the Guard attacks will matter (they won’t) and they are continuing them even after the lunacy of CBS on the new Bush “memo’s”. Not just for reasons to do with the unusually typing and signs of multiple copying. But also to do with logic, keeping such a document in your home is a liability nightmare. Indeed it is Sandy the Hambergler all over again.

So why during this time is Kerry still Pressing Bush=AWOL? During the Boston hate-in several globe reporters say Kerry doesn’t get close to people who weren’t in Vietnam. That Vietnam is the prism of which the Human John Kerry comes out.

Obsession in a word is the problem.

Kerry can’t let Vietnam go, Bush RIGHTLY doesn’t mention it.

I am still shocked the most important issue in this election will be “What did the Candidates do 35 years ago.”
