This hit-piece got a very prominent, almost entire front and back covers with one-inch high bold headline, in today's editorial section of the Sunday paper. There are lots of pictures with the article to lure people to read it.

Kevin Phillips has turned into a crank. In 1992 he predicted the end of the GOP. OOPS

I guess under the guise of an "editorial" you can weave and assume and guess and insinuate with impunity.

Typical of the "enlightened" left.

Anybody happen to see From the heartland last night? The leftis pundit threw out the typical conspiracy theory about the "bush crime family". When he was cut off he ripped off his mic and left in the middle of the interview.

Not one adult in the lot.

It sounds like phase 2 of the Democrats' smear and doubt campaign to me. Paint the 'Bush dynasty' as some kind of multigenerational evil empire. As if the BFEE hasn't been one of their foci all along since 2000.

Will this bring about a proportional response from the Republican camp? The more we delve into John Kerry's past, it seems to be a target-rich environment for a conspiracy theory.

Will the 2004 campaign end up in the media as a Skeletor-vs-Darth Vader kind of clash of the evil empires? Or will they eventually get down to business and focus on the real issues, the principal one being who best to lead this country through the next four dangerous years?

Phillips is an odious scoundrel enamored with himself and his own "big ideas about the way things ought to be."

All you have to do is listen to the guy speak for a few seconds to realize he's a jerk who couldn't get elected dogcatcher.

They really can't help themselves it seems. They continue to rehash the same info over and over. Much of this was run through the ringers in 1999-2000..... Guess it's time for a new round of books to hit the stores.....

Example they mention the Bin Ladens investing in Carlye, but they never mention the amount or percentage of the investment which was very minor in the accurred money totals in the various Caryle fundings.

Invest in tin foil producers:

When you see "Kevin Philips" in the "author" slot -- just move on. Sort of like seeing Charlie Rangel appearing on Meet The Press. Just turn the channel.

They've been dissing Kevin Phillips in National Review's The Corner this week.

KEVIN PHILLIPS [Rick Brookhiser]
Always remember that Phillips, like Pat Buchanan, is a Nixon man. His whole vision of the future was pinned on the Trickster; his ideal of American politicking and governance was Chuck Colson (once-born), plus wage and price controls. He has been wandering in the wilderness ever since Nixon's helicopter took off from the White House lawn in 1974...

Phillips also suggested that the person Bush should put on the Iraq Intelligence failure commission is Scott Ritter, of all people. That is, if they can keep Scott out of the high school parking lots.

Phillips is "respected" by the Left because he is a "crank" Republican who has made it his business to dump on Republicans.

Idiot.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

I wonder why I never saw such an in-depth amount of reporting about the clintons, him and her, in any sort of mainstream paper? Never did anything like this see the light of day, not that I can recall.

He went on to became the first vice president — and then the first president — to have either an oil or CIA background.

Not fully true-LBJ was linked to Texas oil if not the CIA.

"As early as 1964, George H.W. Bush, running for the U.S. Senate from Texas, was labeled by incumbent Democrat Ralph Yarborough as a hireling of the sheik of Kuwait, for whom Bush's company drilled offshore oil wells"

This is the liberal's main problem. They take a statement from another liberal, and purport to make it a sinister truth. Just because an "incumbent Democrat" LIED ABOUT George H.W. Bush, doesn't make it some kind of truth of a DYNASTY. How ignorant.

This is the same thing they have done with the "awol" statement.
