I think that someone said that Turnipspeed is a FR lurker and that he is really upset with how the media used his words out of context.
Daily Telegraph: Mark Steyn -
So it has come to this - a choice of scandals ***
..Now let's consider the Kerry scandal: If you read the British newspapers, you'll know all about it. It's not about whether he was Absent Without Leave, but the more familiar political failing of being Absent Without Pants. It concerns a 24-year old woman - ie, 41 years younger than Mrs Kerry - and, with their usual efficiency, the Fleet Street lads have already interviewed her dad, who's called Kerry a "sleazeball". But if you read the US newspapers or watch the news shows there's not a word about the Senator's scandal. Though it seems to have a somewhat sounder factual basis, and at least one witness more relevant to this situation than the loose-lipped Gen Turniphead was to Mr Bush's, it's the media that's gone Awol. In this case, it seems it would hurt to ask. So Mr Bush has been unable to do the John Kerry routine, declining to comment but adding that "it's not my marital record that's at issue". We have two flimsy "scandals" tangentially related to character, but only one of them's all over the networks.
If character is the issue, Bush can relax. And, if doing your bit for national security is the issue, then John Kerry's been Awol for two decades.***
I think that someone said that Turnipspeed is a FR lurker and that he is really upset with how the media used his words out of context. Yes and the reporter from the Globe took his words out of context
Notice the Globe fails to take responsibility for that
If he is then I apologize for snickering at his name.
I still wonder how Turnipseed becomes a family name.
