Even as Bush and Cheney run around the country attempting to misquote John Kerry (apparently they can only digest speeches sound bites at a time), polls (and newspaper endorsements) show the Senator surpassing the deceptor-in-chief. Which, while I won't hold my breath, puts a grin on my face. Then again, what do you expect from a guy who can't tell the difference between the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution? Read a transcript of the second debate if you don't believe me.
As the week begins, we have news of GOP stalwarts hiding information from the American people. For example, all major assaults in Iraq are on hold until after the election because - as they should - any casualties incurred would be blamed on Bush, irregardless of the success of the battles. More insidiously, a damning report concerning the Bush Administration's awful civil rights record has had it's release date pushed back by Republicans who don't wish you to know what their candidate's record has been. Similar bad news has, however, been released concerning the disrespect for women by this administration. And his environmental record only looks good because he omits data necessary to make an actual judgement of said record.
More voices of opposition from some Marines in Iraq. I just hope they don't get in trouble for being so frank. Thanks to Jim Doherty for the story. And apparently George may have problems within his cabinet...but who could it be? Heh, partisan snub there, just figured I'd warn ya.
Meanwhile, more deception from both in and outside the GOP. First, fake reporters have been used to tout the No Child Left Behind Act in ads made to look like government press releases. C'mon, isn't the existence of FOXNews enough for these guys? Then, Sinclair Broadcast Group - home of the "We don't honor our war dead" pledge - have chosen to air a blatantly anti-Kerry infomercial on it's public channels. These supposedly moral people (one of which got busted earlier this year in a prostitution ring) censored Ted Koppel when he wished to recognize the sacrifices of our troops but will stoop to slander a presidential candidate using illegal means to do so. All to keep their corrupt candidate in the Oval Office. And still people will vote for this so-called "leadership."
Incidentally, I have uploaded many Iraq pics from Lucas Seimers (given to Mom during his July visit) and a slew of pics from Tom. I also have two GMail accounts left to give (first come, first serve).
