Schieffer asked a loaded question hoping to force President Bush to say homosexuality was a choice to be immoral and the President didn't fall for the trap.

Senator Kerry recognized that Schieffer had failed to produce a homophobe's answer, so he tried to provoke the President over the fact that his VP, gasp, had a homosexual daughter.

Since there isn't a single bigot cell in President Bush's system, he ignored the clumsy attempt.

The fact that the Kerry symps in the general media keep bringing it up is not to criticize Kerry, but to hang the homo-lover tag on the President and thus continue to chip away at the base.

Don't give Couric any kudos for this stunt.

Sorry, but I disagree. There was no mistaking that there was some personal conviction and heat behind Katie's suggestion to Dee Dee that Kerry's statement was not magnanimous but a calculated political move. I can't believe that the Kerry people are happy to have this story dominating the news and to have their own spokesman criticizing the candidate.

Thank you for saying so, it was my feeling too. Kerry is going to use this and get as much milage out of it as possible.
