Yes, Morris has recently been very impressed with Bush.

Bump for Steyn!

Wow..this is the first I've heard that Morris, who voted for Gore, is NOW voting for Bush.

Seems like another sensible Democrat who, like Zell Miller, has had an epiphany. They are most likely the leading edge of many more. We welcome the Reagan Democrats home once again.

Senator Kerrikaze is running for president because he thinks he should be president -- who needs a platform?

Ouch! And how true!

Thanks for the ping, Pokes!

Thank you for your post at #6. Because of it, I'm sending this thread to a friend of my family who had the same experience you did, being spat on in an airport.

And thank you for your service.

Thank you, Mark Steyn, for a great column. Again.

[hershey]

Wow.

Actually I think it should be "Kerry's Semester Abroad"

That's better. :-D

Earlier posts have noted a condition caller para imsomnia, Kerry had to be led back to bed for sleepwalking, Teresa notes he wakes up in terror, etc.

One of the Swift Boat Vets (can't say for positive whether it's one of the Swift Boat Vets for the Truth or one of sKerry's Band 'o Brothers) who shared a tent with sKerry was quoted as saying that he had to put sKerry back to bed when he slept-walked. Has anyone else seen this? Citation?

This is a fabulous article, even for Steyn. I may have to change my tag line to incorporate one of the many great lines in it.

General Vo Nguyen Gaip , the Commanding officer of the North Vietnamese Military ...

Great post, succinctly laying out a case against sKerry.

I have heard this story about General Giap several times - I have also heard it's not true. Some times it's cited to Giap's autobiography, but then I read he never wrote an autobiography. I also have seen it cited to the Wall Street Journal. Does anyone have a definitive answer as to whether this is the truth? I want to use for ammo against sKerry, but we need to be sure of our facts.

Robert "Friar Tuck" Brant Cdr., USN (RET), a member of SBVfT, whom Kerry called to whine at and ask why the Swift Boat Vets didn't like him.

When I returned home to Los Angeles from Vietnam in 1971 my head was spinning as I walked through the Terminal at LAX, thinking about the culture of war that I had just left while looking around at the opulence in America. When I stepped outside onto the sidewalk a group of “Longhairs” walked by and one of them spat on me while the others called me a “Baby Killer”. I feel that the treatment that I received, and have lived with for the past 33 years, was due to John Kerry and his lies. John Kerry does not have the moral integrity, honesty, or judgment to be the Commander-In-Chief of the world’s most powerful military. John Kerry IS, unfit for command.

You came home the year before I was born, however, I'd like to apologize on behalf of my country for the despicable way you were treated on your return. Please accept my apology, and my heartfelt thanks for giving me a free country to grow up in, on behalf of a grateful nation.

[Martin Tell]

Thanks. I wonder if sKerry also wet the bed.

I see a new series of adult videos in the making: "Kerry Gone Wild !!"

[ApesForEvolution]

Kerricelli option watch...Ft. Marcy Park watch...Arkancide Alert watch...

I bet the DEA could score big on that train that John and Evita are incoherently traveling on...

with kerry trying to get back on message and reclaim some of the media attention, I just watched 30 minutes of cable news coverage of a sailboat bobbing around in a florida harbor.
