Kerry Camp's Final Fumble (read it for entertainment value)
This article is by Dick Morris from NYpost, so that should tell you a lot.

I'm posting it for pure entertainment value...

**********************

October 28, 2004 -- ONCE again, John Kerry shows his instinct to go for the capillaries, rather than the jugular.

Kerry has embraced the dubious New York Times/CBS accusations about U.S. bungling permitting the theft of explosives from an ammunition dump in Iraq. The senator has chosen to predicate the entire final week of his campaign on the unsolvable mystery of what happened to the bomb-making material in the chaos surrounding the invasion of Iraq.

By stepping up to bat and running an ad in which he speaks directly into the camera in an effort to win votes over the issue, Kerry has made the dubious journalistic accusations his own and bet his credibility and his candidacy on the outcome.

How will we ever know when the explosives were removed from Al-Qaqaa and by whom? How can we tell if they were taken away by Saddam's minions before or after he fell from power, before or after the United States troops had passed by the dump? We can't, any more than we can tell who did what in the jungles of Vietnam 30 years ago.

For the rest of this stand-up routine http://www.nypost.com/postopinion/opedcolumnists/32831.htm

2. Dick Morris proves...
That there is hope for employment, even for anacephalics.

3. Dubious accusations?
Dick Morris has entered Bush's Twilight Zone.

4. NY Post...feh...not even good toilet paper.
Remember the old SNL joke? Post advertising sales manager asks Bloomingdales why it no longer buys ad space in the Post. Bloomies replies, Because your readers are our shoplifters.

5. Looks like the Toe Sucker "jumped to conclusions."
Facts are pesky little devils...

especially when accompanied by pictures!

6. Without toes to suck,
Morris seems kind of desperate for attention, and, of course, the rightwingnuts will embrace him, since they all long to suck toes, too.

He knows nothing, and all he can do is try to diminish the Democrats who long ago turned their collective backs on this dwarf weasel.

7. Don't these people get it? BUSH SHOULD KNOW.
Edited on Fri Oct-29-04 10:34 AM by aden_nak
That's the point. Regardless of if it happened before or after we invaded, Bush should KNOW. He should know because we should have checked the facility as soon as we go there. It's that simple. NOT checking that facility is just tactically STUPID. There simple fact that Bush doesn't have the facts regarding al Qaqaa is proof of his gross negligence.

Not that I'd expect anything less from the New York Post.

Fuck you, Rupert. I hope you get so many cancers they eat each other trying to get at those dried, shiveled inards of yours.

8. The Post has gotten more and more shrill this week.
I think they sense trouble. It's gone beyond journalism several times.
