In the real world, poverty can only be combated by the povertyites themselves. All the money poured down the rat hole in the name of ending poverty, since LBJ began pouring it in, has just eroded rat hole into an abyss.

My big brother made great comment during 2004 election he said

She be cool person party with

As First lady what a drunken skank LOL!

[Just A Nobody]

In case ya'll missed it on the news...

Yeah, I missed it all right. I might as well sell my TV.

So, does this mean no more trips to Kennebunkport for the Toon family???

[Emmett McCarthy]

No, you've got it all wrong. Mickie divorced Minnie and the judge said, "Mickie, are you saying you're divorcing Minnie because she's crazy?" Mickie says, "No, I said she was effin' Goofy"

Hmmmmm, this is the exact wording on replies from every SINator I have e-mailed. Most recently sphinter and whystein.

Look Who's Stalking


Remember all those angry speeches Bob Dole and Jack Kemp delivered about Bill Clinton in 1997? Or the anti-Reagan orations of Walter Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro circa 1985? Neither do we, because they didn't happen. Last year's losers, however, lack the dignity their predecessors possessed.

"Kerry, Edwards Blast Bush Over Katrina" read an Associated Press headline yesterday, and one could be forgiven for wondering if Kedwards realize this is 2005 and not 2004. Here's a particularly rich line from the AP account:

In a blistering critique, Kerry said former Federal Emergency Management Agency Director Michael Brown was to Hurricane Katrina "what Paul Bremer is to peace in Iraq; what George Tenet is to 'slam dunk intelligence'; . . . what George Bush is to 'Mission Accomplished' and 'Wanted Dead or Alive.' "

How about "what John Kerry is to 'bring it on' "? Really, this is about as "blistering" as a glass of warm milk. Another AP story, meanwhile, reports that "Edwards is calling for a return of depression era job programs to rebuild the hurricane ravaged Gulf Coast."

Remember how when they were running for president, Kedwards argued that their plan would better prepare the nation for a natural disaster? Remember how Edwards, during his six years in the Senate, repeatedly introduced legislation reviving Depression-era job programs? Neither do we, because it didn't happen. Or maybe it did happen, but they certainly didn't emphasize it in their campaign, which centered on other issues:

John Kerry served in Vietnam.


Vietnam veterans are liars.


The war in Iraq was "the wrong war, in the wrong place, at the wrong time," and Kedwards were right to vote for it.


"Dick Cheney's daughter . . . is a lesbian."
This was the case for Kedwards. Amazingly, it was enough to attract more than 30 million votes, but they still lost--and they are evidently having great difficulty accepting that reality.

Do Kedwards--and, for that matter, much of the rest of today's Democratic Party--remind anyone else of a jilted boyfriend stalking his ex? (The ex, in this analogy, being the United States of America.) He hears that she is having a rough time with her new beau, so he seizes the opportunity to win her back, by badmouthing the beau and trumpeting his own virtues: How could she prefer him, I'm such a nice guy! But of course he isn't acting nice at all; his behavior is annoying, creepy, even menacing. Anyway, even if things don't work out with the new beau, there's no way she's going back to the ex, whom she ditched months ago for reasons that remain as sound as ever.

When you think about it this way, you realize why hate-harpy Cindy Sheehan is the perfect symbol of today's Democratic left. She spent the month of August literally stalking the president, and her various rantings on far-left Web sites reflect the same sort of narcissism and delusion that characterize someone in the grips of a romantic obsession.

Then again, Sheehan actually did lose someone she loved, whereas Kedwards only lost an election. They should follow the example of Mondale and Dole and take it like a man: get over it, move on and stop bothering the country that rejected them.

What an awesome site. Great juxtaposition of Bush / Kerry photos .
Normal vs Abnormal.

[Gucho]

...and a TRAITOR!

[Radix]

Klueless Kerry is simply trying to make himself relevant. He is so completely irrelevant when it comes to 2008, except in Massachusetts where he'll be running for reelection.

I am continuing to be amazed that anybody pays any mind at all to that imbecile.

"Kerry, testing the waters for a second presidential run"

Now you both know why I never let up,
despite being told "Get over it, kerry's done, move on."

Karl Rove knew to at least Thank Swift Boat Vets
because Rove knew they would be called again to serve
their country.

Rove Credits Swiftvets With 'Energizing' Bush Vote (Thank You Karl Rove!)

I was not a Swift Boat Vet
BUT I was there the same time as Hanoi Kerry
and my Destroyer, among other things,
resupplied Swift Boats in the mouth of the Mekong Delta.

Tests waters for presidential run

RUN being the key word, RUN KERRY RUN, to France preferrably!!

[Wally_Kalbacken]

C***!

[blondee123]

Question would Terezaaaaa campaign with him in 2008

I'm sure I just read the other nite that she has stopped using the name Kerry, hmmmm, wonder what that means???

[rlmorel]

I say-OH PLEASE RUN! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!

LOL!!! What a LOSER-As long as any Vietnam Vets are alive, and most will be alive as long as him, he will never hold the presidency.

His presence just makes the Dems look like barking moonbats.

[cubreporter]

Well, I just want to see kerry and hillereee and the rest of them go at each other.

[cubreporter]

Well finally he spoke up. I don't care if I were a partner in the relief efforts. If someone I was working with talked about my son who was the President like that I would tell him to go to haities and drop him like a hot potato. See? Put clintin the joke in the limelight and he tries to suffocate everyone around him. He's rotten and I think Bush Sr, should just quit associating with him.

'this is the exact wording on replies from every SINator I have e-mailed'

so not only do they have the same 'talking points' every day, they have identical e-m responses?

what a bunch of duds.

[nwrep]

Thanks for the memories, and yes, it was one heck of a year, whose stories will be written generations from now.

[Just A Nobody]

what a bunch of duds.

My sentiments exactly, thus the term SINators. ;*)

[T. Buzzard Trueblood]

We have to get angry, and organize around that

Yeah, Senator, get angry, you big skinny twerp.

For John Kerry to think that he even has a shot at the Dim nomination, much less the Presidency, is nothing less than dumb.

He's beyond stale. The Dims don't want him either. He's the only person in the country who doesn't know that.
