Agreed. This reads as if she just took some of her stray notes and stuck them together to meet a deadline. (Oh-oh --imagery attack... Ann Coulter... stuck together... excuse me... must be alone for a few minutes).

Excellent comment MadIvan!
I don't know what can be done against the NYT...but something certainly should be done and said nationwide against this kind of censorship. The DNC is always so big against anything of this kind, and they are so avidly the ones making headlines with their partisian stories and headlines. If emails and telephone calls would work, fine, but the powers to be that run the paper are the big guys...who write the headlines. Look what Hearst did for 40 years with his papers?? It is a quandry.
I hate to admit it, but the USA Today editors were right.
Thank you for posting this!
What a shame; more than a shame; a travesty against an honest, Repub-Conservative voice trying to dim just a little; the rancorous and dishonest politicizing being celebrated by the Democrats in Boston.
These folks not only cannot stand the 'light of truth'; they shrink and run from it.
Sen. Kerry, Pioneer Linked In "Big Dig" Overpayment 02/06/2004
An insurance company led by Bush Pioneer Maurice "Hank" Greenberg has been connected to Sen. John F. Kerry (D-MA) - currently the frontrunner for this year's Democratic presidential nomination - in a series of events that appear to illustrate a trade of favors involving a huge Boston transportation project. The Associated Press reported Feb. 5 that in 2000, Kerry stopped a bill that would have forced American International Group (AIG) to repay $150 million related to overpayments for insurance premiums on the Central Artery/Tunnel Project, a $14.6 billion highway, bridge and tunnel complex better known as the "Big Dig." In 2001 and 2002, AIG paid $540 in travel expenses for a Kerry speech in Vermont, gave $18,000 to Kerry's Senate and presidential campaigns, and donated at least $30,000 to a tax-exempt "exploratory committee" Kerry set up to examine whether he should run for president.
The bill that Kerry blocked came after the Transportation Department found in 1999 that Big Dig managers overpaid AIG $128.9 million for unneeded worker's compensation and liability insurance, then let AIG invest the money in the market and keep about half the profits from the investments. Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) introduced a bill in 2000 that would have taken $150 million in federal funding from the Big Dig while banning insurers from investing any excessive premiums paid with federal money. McCain relented when Kerry and Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (D-MA) asked McCain to drop the bill; instead, McCain held a hearing on the issue before the Senate Commerce Committee. A spokeswoman said Kerry called for hearings to determine whether the investments were legal, but opposed cutting funding for the project.
This one should be in the USA Today Headlines, but they would never investigate it. OPS4 God Bless America!
I promise that one of these days I'm going to learn how to post pictures.
