Thanks for the heads up on Greenspan. I haven't heard the news.

I also heard that Sasso was the dirty trickster. I think he is the one who put out the hit on Eagleton.

Come with me down memory lane: In September, 1987, Dukakis was running for president and Sasso was not only his campaign manager but a person Dukakis considered like a brother.

One of Dukakis chief rivals and a man neck-and-neck with him in fundraising was Joe Biden, senator from Delaware.

Sasso found some dirt on Biden. At the Iowa State Fair, Biden used some of the same words in a speech that Neil Kinnock, leader of the British Labor Party, had previously used. ...

In other words, a babysitter for Kerry? He is an object of ridicule.

Would not this be a DOUBLE FLIP FLOP?

Yes, but if you double flip flop and stick the landing, then technically it isn't considered a real flip flop, so he gets no points deducted and a technical score of 8.75.

Unless it Wednesday, which is humpday, so he gets a bump of .2, but must deduct his negative bounce from the Convention for a final score of 6.95.

Sasso IS a dirty trickster. He's the guy who leaked the Biden "plagarist" tape to the New York Times, NBC and Des Moines Register, denied he did it and was summarily fired in a very public press conference by Dukakis.

As you may know, Estrich was Dukakis' campaign manager, so she is very familiar with him. Kerry was Dukakis' Lt. Governor in Taxachusetts.

Whouley is a very smart operative. Do not underestimate him.

Ya know, if he keeps that up they will name the move after him, like they do in Gymnastics.

K stands for Knucklehead

Do you mind if others borrow your line? I gave passing thought last night to coming up with a "K is for (insert word with silent "k" here)" slogan for Kerry and you've hit it.

Thanks for clearing that up. When it comes down to a bunch of pig's wrestling in the mud, sometimes they get hard to recognize.

Weld said W would have to make sure his jaw doesn't drop when he debates Kerry when he hears all the lies Kerry makes up on the spot. Amazing, right?

What a great heads up. Thanks for posting that.

I sense an opportunity for a Reaganesque "There you go again" type of line.

no plan to win the peace

Of all the hare-brained catch-phrases emanating from the 2004 campaign, this one has to win the So Stupid It Defies Gravity Award.

"Win the Peace" is an air-whipped verbal confection cooked up by Democrat sound-bite chefs seeking profundity without the need for rational thought in order to achieve it. Wars are won or lost. Peace is first secured, and then defended - often by the armies that achieved victory on the battlefield. The government supporting those armed forces must have a plan to transfer responsibility for future control to civilian authorities. This is precisely what is occurring in Iraq today, and quite successfully, because that was the plan.

What was the plan to "win the peace" after WWII? We occupied Germany for years, fought off marauding bands of Nazi sympathizers and Communist rebels and criminals, and once general peace was SECURED (not "won"), divided the country with our Allies (unfortunately including the Soviet Union). What was the plan to "win the peace" in Japan? We firebombed and irradiated them into submission, forceably disarmed their military and then occupied the country until they could be trusted again.

Anyone really think we can trust JFK III with our armed forces in Iraq or elsewhere? Besides, The only "pieces" he's ever won had million dollar bank accounts.

I remember watching BrokeJaw on election night 2000 and it is seared, seared into my memory that any time a state went to Gore that Gore had "taken" another state, while any time one went to Bush it had "fallen" to him.

Kinda like when the media approves of a witness testifying before a committee or grand jury, they report that the witness "appeared". If the media disapproves of an inquiry, the witness is "hauled before" the investigating body.

Thanks for the info.

Maybe we need to try to find out. I don't have any sources but google but I'll look.

Bush is Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.

As another poster said before, it help's if you imagine Herman Munster jumping up and down in a temper tantrum.

Hope this helps.

RUSHED to war??? I remember at the time thinking we were giving Saddam Hussein too much time to get rid of his WMD stockpiles! We didn't "rush to war" fast enough, IMHO!

It took about 6 months to go to war after President Bush announced it.  I thought that the 6 months gave Saddam plenty of time to hid the WMD's.  Saddam buried everything else.  Why not the WMD's?

Good for Bush but the spinners are rewriting the speech for him.

"George W. Bush is WRONG" was the main message.

Not a major foreign policy speech but a bashing of the president's prosecution of the Iraq war with "no plan to win the peace". New mantra is "We've spent 200 billion dollars in Iraq" and then a list of all the domestic programs that "we don't have money for".

New line that I heard: Kerry took Bush's "Soft bigotry of low expectations" and said it's Bush who has set the low expectations.

Oh--and others caught at the beginning a heckler getting beaten. I didn't see it but I heard Kerry start the speech by saying along the lines that the Bush people always try to stifle dissent and the truth. Can you believe that? As if the Republican convention didn't just take place in New York amidst protesters in the streets and actually making their way into the hall several times, including the president's speech, yet GWB and the republicans didn't go crying to their mommys about it. But there was John effing claiming Bush supporters are the rude ones. Some here suspect the whole thing was a set up to provide the pompous ass the opportunity to project again.

Well, someone in the crowd got pummeled by some of his fans.

He has a new trick of a stifled laugh that is enough to make you sick.

He sounds as isolationist as Pat Buchanan on a grumpy day.

Mercifully, the rest is fading from my memory already.
