NBC reporter, Chris Jansing, standing in front of the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections, has just announced the arrival of the "best of the best" Kerry lawyers who honestly believe they can upset the Ohio results. They're looking at the numbers and the numbers say to them that "we can still win Ohio." Edwards announced only an hour or so ago that it was "worth another night" and punched the air in his awkward, childlike way, thanked the Kerry supporters and then sent his fellow trial lawyers off to fight for Kerry in the courts.

Fox news continues to report that the amount of explosives weigh just 380 tons.

Lawrence O'Donnell let loose, egged on by the anti-Bush John McLaughlin, the most vicious lies against the Bush Administration I've ever heard on the show.

If only a 527 Group would create one more ad--probably one that Bush/Cheney can't do (for some reason September 11 is supposed to be off limits)....

Kerry justifies vote against first Gulf War

The best reason to be skeptical that John Kerry has the gumption to defend America's vital interests and allies is not that he has been all over the map about this current war in Iraq. Although such erratic behavior is unpresidential, Kerry's unwillingness to support military action in 1991 against Saddam Hussein after Iraq had invaded and raped neighboring Kuwait is the best reason to question his judgment. The lesson of history -- Kerry's Senate vote against the first Iraq war that hindsight shows to be a reasonable and necessary conflict -- makes his claim that he would be willing...

Kerry and Heinz-Kerry's tax rate is just the beginning of their hypocrisy, which I hope will be something George Bush points out. But here's the most outrageous, and it has gone on for years: Kerry, like most politicians in Washington DC sent his kids to private schools.

Fox says Theresa will release tax returns but will the other Kerry secrets be released?

Tammy Bruce said today on the Fox News Channel that there's a quote in a small circulation newsletter that will soon be out and that she'll be using it.

Our mission continues. Al Qaeda is wounded, not destroyed. The scattered cells of the terrorist network still operate in many nations, and we know from daily intelligence that they continue to plot against free people. The proliferation of deadly weapons remains a serious danger. The enemies of freedom are not idle, and neither are we. Our government has taken unprecedented measures to defend the homeland. And we will continue to hunt down the enemy before he can strike. (Applause.) The war on terror is not over; yet it is not endless. We do not know the day of final victory,...

Halliburton's division Kellogg, Brown & Root has a long history of no-bid contracts with the government, but much more important, it was Brown & Root that made plenty of money during the Johnson Administration.

In the last week I read a coherent explanation in the New York Times, New York Post, or a conservative web page like The Weekly Standard or Wall Street Journal that makes the entire Kerry medals controversy clear. This blog, in fact, has a discussion about Kerry's first "tour" on a boat kept off shore and facing no danger and not even considered to be a "tour" in Vietnam but his second was more dangerous than he ever expected.
