at the www.johnkerry.com blog.

As is your wit, your comments, your good arguments and your good selves.

After all, defending honorable people can be fun. Especially on Halloween. Can't let *them* get away with all the tricks.

Just a comment or two or three and my thanks!

Tay

1. Posted there for the first time
Can you imagine? I'm sitting in London in my hotel room and can't abstain from DU. Must be love... or obsession. LOL

By the way, it looks like not only my daughter Julie and I will come to Boston in December but also my German friend Uli who will be in New Jersey around this time and would like to come over to MA for two days.

5. Just put a few comments in
Some pretty bad comments there; not sure if the Democrats are really Democrats. I am also officially mad at Andrew Sullivan and will not read him for a while (this always happens) as he sides with the WH's POV, and demands Kerry apologize. Today has been tough, and I'm not sure what the fallout will be. Does anyone know?

11. That was funny -- in the spirit of that thread
I apologized for all of the wars in the 20th century, and this century, too. I didn't mean it, but I'm sorry anyway.


Andrew will ALWAYS have a blind spot in regards to Kerry. His position today makes ZERO sense in light of what he said yesterday about the rage he felt with the actions of the Bush administration. What did Kerry do to him anyway to get so much scorn. BTW -- Joe Klein will go after him next; you can count on it.

Still, I'm reading overall, either a neutral POV of the "Kerry incident" or even praise. The lefty blogs thought he was great.

8. I just added a comment
Edited on Tue Oct-31-06 09:55 PM by rox63
I've been stuck at work since early afternoon. We're actually covering for a holiday in India today, where half of my department's jobs were outsourced. So we're running at half-staff, and I'm at work until 11:00 PM tonight. It finally quieted down enough for me to get a word in on this. My Gawd, the bashers and haters are all over the JK blog, just like flies on sh*t. :banghead:

9. Put in two comments,
but that's all I can stomach. My apologies for being a weak sister.

I think all those people are fakes and liars, and were called to the Kerry blog by a freeperville all-hands-on-deck alert. There's no arguing with them, and there are no minds to persuade. They are just junkyard dogs.

12. I think it's the same few people.
I was observing and posting a lot earlier today as PolitiCalypso.

Since you don't have to have an account to post there, I think that some of the freepers are posting under multiple names to make it look like there's more of them. If that's what they're going to do, we should play that game as well, and rotate several names when we post.

14. Kick, kick, kick, kick, kick,.
The base is under attack, repeat, under attack.

This is not a drill.

All hands on deck.

That is all.

15. I'm hearing rumors on the internets
that staff are reading and keeping track of the comments on the blog. So if you've got something to say, there's a place that will be delighted to hear it. :-)

17. Okay,
just dragged my sorry ass back over there.

Where are the freepers? It must have been a one-day attack order. :P

18. I'd just like to share a letter my brilliant daughter
Edited on Wed Nov-01-06 02:45 PM by whometense
wrote to CNN today (is there a maternal pride smiley??) and just posted on the Kerry blog as well:

    Just sharing with you what I couldn't resist saying to CNN:

    I think that any media outlet or reporter who does their work properly would know that Kerry's joke was at the end of a string of jokes about George W. Bush being incompetent. If someone would take the time to rewind the tape 30 seconds, we would all see that the joke had nothing to do with the troops. Everyone who cares to do their research knows this - and one would think that CNN reporters would fall under this category. I cannot believe that Kerry's photograph has been the front story on cnn.com all day long. With an election in less than a week, I am appalled that CNN, the "most trusted news network in America," is chasing this red herring thrown by the GOP to distract from their long list of failures, the top item being the war in Iraq. My 4 month old puppy is shrewder than you. After pretending to throw the ball for her 3 times, she figures out that it's just a trick. The GOP has been doing this for years, and you still haven't figured it out.
