To: Always Right
It's more like charishing his elite status with NY Manhattanites, and east coast snobs.

Like all of the Presidents so-called "friends" in "journalism" and Bush's so called "base", he jumps out of the foxhole, when the fight gets tough.

The complaints of Bush being too conservative or not conservative enough ring hollow, and tend to be simple contrarianism.

This election is about the men who are running, who they are, their character and their medal.

War is uncomfortable, as is the re-alignment of US relationships abroad.

Tying to return to pre-9/11 feelings comfort, and yearning for a President who makes no waves, leaves pots boiling, and turns to the UN instead of making an actual decision,
is a comforting thought to elites.

But is illogical, emotional, and utopian minded.

As is all liberal thinking.

Sullivan's tale is cautionary, but there are inherent weaknesses in a Kerry candidacy that Sullivan hasn't addressed. Bush will address them, however.

That's why Sullivan's analogy is cautionary, but somewhat wide of the mark.

In short, John Kerry, you are no Clement Atlee.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

Sullivan was pretty much blackballed from American newspapers and magazines (the NYTimes in particular) when he was supporting Bush and the War on Terror. Now that he's a Bush-basher, he magically is getting all these high-profile writing gigs again. Shocker!
