Severin is just saying what should be obvious to even the most obtuse Bush worshiper. He messed up on Iraq and the reasons we went there. Heard him tonight. Weird to read the threads on FR that slobber over Bush's performance with Russert and then hear someone with an open mind actually review that interview. Bush was abssymal as Severin said. I winced all the way through it. And as National Review Online has said and other conservatives in the media. Severin doesn't worship Kerry or even praise him. He is being merely realistic. If you equate honest critique of Bush with disloyatly that is your problem. But fawning uncritical sycophancy is worse than no help at all. Sean Hannity's picture is in the dictionary under the word "sycophant" and I wouldn't listen to him to save my life.

Severin, like myself, will be voting for Bush (though it won't matter in Mass that much I suspect)- but I appreciate the fact that he doesn't ignore flaws and problems for partisan purposes. I like to be treated like an adult.

"Severin doesn't worship Kerry or even praise him. He is being merely realistic".
I beg you the difference. Yes, he is not praising Kerry everyday but he said many times that he admires him. Moreover if he really wants Bush to be re-elected he should be attacking Kerry every second on his ultra liberal record, his treason of his fellow soldiers when he came from Vietnam, his flip flpos and huge contradictions on very important issues, and his hypocracy. At the contrary President Bush is his primary target every day for the last few months and this is not the work of someone who wants Bush re-elected.
