Those pesky speechwriters again! As Slate's Mickey Kaus mused, what's next? ''Kerry reveals he went to Vietnam after reading a draft of his autobiography that said he went to Vietnam?''

Thanks for the ping...
Because of tax loopholes, thousands of CEOs find it advantageous to take out Mexican citizenship, swim back to America and work as ''undocumented executives.'' Undocumented executives. I love it!

Senator Flippy has now decided this line is nonoperative. As he told the chaps at the Journal, ''You know, I called a couple of times to overzealous speechwriters and said 'Look, that's not what I'm saying.' Benedict Arnold does not refer to somebody who in the normal course of business is going to go overseas and take jobs overseas. That happens. I support that. I understand that. I was referring to the people who take advantage of noneconomic transactions purely for tax purposes -- sham transactions -- and give up American citizenship. That's a Benedict Arnold. You give up your American citizenship but you want to continue to do business.''

Well, it's good to know the senator has finally found a way to neutralize the flip-flop question. Many of us assumed that, when he was for the war and then he was against it and then he was for it again, that he kept changing his mind. But now it's possible he was just being entirely consistent -- he's always been for it, or against it, it's just that his ''overzealous speechwriters'' kept putting the wrong words in his mouth. That's right. I have no problem understanding he's always been for it, or against it, most definitely against it or for it, but always consistent, lol.

Mincemeat. Steyn just made mincemeat out of Kerry, and it was a BEAUTIFUL thing to read.
Thank you for a FULL-LENGTH Steyn article.

Thanks for the ping; I really needed this laugh and was Steyn-deprived for the last several days.

Recommendation to members of RAM:
Save this article handy to your telephone - to use as talking points when you call a talk show to refute the brain-dead kool-aid drinking Kerry supporters.
These 'observations' of virtual candidate Kerry are brilliant.
