Along with President Nixon, Senator Eugene Joseph McCarthy and my grandmother were great friends.
To the Mary Cheney issue add Edwards' "arise and walk" clip re Reeves and stem cells.
I'm sure we could think of others... so have at it!
Good. Looks like Safire has woken up and decided to write a useful column.
This is in the NY Times? I'm shocked! It must be buried way in the back right? Good Article.
Truer words were never spoken. It was a blatant attempt by all involved Kerry Kampaign Workers to hang pink triangles around the necks of the President and VP.
Kerry has no decency. Makes it better for Bush's campaign of course. But the man hasn't the sense to apologize and he certainly doesn't have the sincerity to pull it off.
The dummycrats keep saying "But its alright, because VP Cheney thanked Edwards, graciously afterwards..."
***** I BEG YOUR PARDON?
What else was Dick Cheney supposed to do? Turn around and punch the daylights outta Edwards? (I wish...)
Dream on, Bill. Keep the chest going in and out.
Kerry and the Democrats are so sleazy that if they thought it would get him any votes, they'd run an ad saying that Bush told a close group of friends that God was dead.
God Bless Vice President Cheney and his wonderful family. Mary should never have been brought up. Whatever personal family issues are, I think they are off limits.
That this issue was brought up shows the dysfunction of the democrat party that I left.
"Kerry will, I hope, assert his essential decency by apologizing with sincerity."
Like most Democrats, Kerry has no "essential decency" nor does he have sincerity.
I think Mrs. Edwards is use to saying whatever she wants and not being held accountable. She is arrogant and mean.
I believe Sen. Eugene Joseph McCarthy was Eugene McCarthy, the antiwar presidential candidate from Minnesota called "Clean Gene". I think you meant to refer to Joseph McCarthy (no Eugene), the senator from Wisconsin.
I like seeing that this was in the NYSlimes.
I've heard this line of argument stated a number of times in slightly different ways but I don't quite buy it.
This battle has been for the undecided voters for quite some time. The way I look at it, Sen. Spitball is basically assuming that most undecided voters are homophobic.
President Bush's core constituency is informed enough to know that John Kerry is the one to worry about when it comes to legalizing marriage between people who engage in homosexual acts. Undecided voters are not.
A caller to his show tonight made an excellent point about Kerry's comment:
Suppose the moderator of the debate had asked the two candidates a question about the growing problem of obesity in the United States, and President Bush had said something to this effect: "We should ask the wife of my opponent's running mate about this -- 'cause she's 'bout as big as a house, ain't she?"
> Kerry will, I hope, assert his essential decency
> by apologizing with sincerity.
This is not going to happen.
Kerry is psychologically incapable of apology,
about anything.
Further, he incapable of sincerity as well,
and his acting skills are inadequate to fake it.
Ms. Edwards is very lucky that W didn't associate her with a serious over-eating disorder when he answered questions recently about health care.
Such is my hope.
