Democrats, stuck in Gay Quagmire debate, say Bush is to blame
The four remaining Super Titans clashed over lobbyists, Iraq, trade, as well as who was born the poorest, who could beat on Bush the hardest, and who would crack down the most on evil right-wingers in a debate 5 days before Super Tuesday, blasting Bush for his dreadfully extremist, 'out-of-step-with-Rosie-O'Donnell' position in favor of protecting traditional marriage, even if it means a Constitutional Amendment.
Channeling to Miss Cleo, John Francois Kerry noted how Bush is "doing this because he's in (political) trouble. He's trying to reach out to his base." (Bush phones Rosie O'Donnell Thursday: Hi, Rosie! It's me, George W. Wanna do me a big fav, hon? As you know, I'm in political trouble so I need you and Kelli Carpenter to dash on over to city hall and get gay married today. Can you do that for me, sweetie? Thanks! Always knew I could depend on my loyal base).
San Francisco Mayor, Gavin Newsom, obviously a toady of George W. Bush, vows to continue the gay marrying. MESSachusetts' top court, another Bush stronghold, set the wheels in motion back in November when, sensing Bush was 'in political trouble' and needing a 'wedge issue,' ordered the Legislature to legalize gay marriage.
Kerry noted he opposes gay marriage and opposes a Constitutional Amendment opposing gay marriage because he thinks that gay marriage should be decided by the states which would be forced to accept gay marriage without a Constitutional Amendment. Johnny Edwards says he agrees with whatever Johnny Kerry just said, which took almost a whole debate segment to spit out. Kerry strongly defended his vote against the Defense of Marriage Act in '96, calling D.O.M.A. gay-bashing, and firmly assured the audience that he doesn't know if he would vote the same way today. (Sources familiar with the period in question say notorious gay-basher Bill Clinton signed the Act into law).
"The law today does not require one state to recognize the marriage of another state," observed the Breck Girl during the 90-minute debate. That's because of D.O.M.A. Displaying exceptional grasp of the subject, he says he would vote against the law that does not require one state to recognize the gay marriage of another state. (Isn't that special?)
Kerry touted his impressive foreign policy experience, his unparalleled record of being on the wrong side of history all of his splendid career. (Supported Nuclear Freeze, the Sandinistas, the Viet Cong, Castro, bet against Ronald Reagan . . . Ah, bet you're thinking, 'How does he do it?') It's hard to believe a record could be that flawless. Regarding global affairs and defense, Kerry has this special gift for getting things wrong. C'mon, check out his 'nay' votes on every major U.S. weapons system and tell me he's not a natural. Kerry won't settle for anything less than Useful Idiotcy. Go ahead and belittle Kerry if you wish, but this stuff takes years of practice, yet Kerry had honed being wrong to an art-form from the get-go. (Think it's easy, eh? Well, try it at home and see. Bet you can't do it). Kerry's got what it takes for colossally screwing things up. (Please don't give me this baloney that Kerry has few admirers in uniform. He has at least a million -- in North Korea).
Kerry can think big, too. I can imagine him standing before the gate, thundering, 'TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!' Problem is, it's the wall in Guantanamo holding al-Qaeda. On the other hand, the move would be a hit with both wings of the Democrat Party: Dean and Deaner. (To be fair, it's silly to think Democrats would vote for Saddam Hussein in their primaries. Unless Bush entered their primaries).
Kerry and Edwards, sitting elbow-to-elbow, clashed on who has a better shot at beating Bush in November (I can beat Bush better than you can! No, you can't! I can can beat Bush better than you can! Can not! Can to! Can not! ...)
Congreesscritter Dennis Kucinich, basking in the glow of his dazzling second-place showing in Hawaii's Democrat caucuses Tuesday -- a stunning upset catapulting him from triple-asterisk (***) candidate to single-asterisk (*) candidate -- said last night that "I'm here to provide the people of this country with a real choice in this election." Riding high in fourth-place in polls against his 3 rivals, Kucinich, his newly-energized campaign drawing crowds of 5 or 6 as it criss-crosses the country, heads into Super Tuesday's 10-state contests with enormous momentum.
Host Larry King asked Kerry, who opposes the death penalty except for terrorists, why a child killer should not be put to death.
"Larry," Kerry replied, "my instinct is to want to strangle that person with my own hands. I understand the instincts, I really do," but he said no way to the death penalty. Kerry believes putting murderers to death isn't punishment enough. The death penalty would be letting them off easy (That's why you see Death Row inmates demanding their death sentences be overturned -- they wanna suffer more by getting room and board, 3 square meals, recreation and entertainment at taxpayers' expense for life). Life in prison, not the death penalty, is the ultimate punishment, Kerry believes. Kerry also believes putting terrorists in prison for life isn't punishment enough. Life in prison would be letting them off easy. The death penalty, not life in prison, is the ultimate punishment in cases of terrorism.
Hope that clears everything up!

Anyway, that's...
