So Dan Rather uses unsubstantiated documents to run a news story about the President, admits that they are unsubstantiated, and the right wing freaks out.

George Bush uses unsubstantiated documents to launch a war (which has killed 1000 soldiers and wounded 7000), refuses to admit that his documents were unsubstantiated, and the right wing shouts "FOUR MORE YEARS."

I ain't suprised, but I'm always disappointed.

How well do those Bush twins know their dad?

A few fun links to illustrate Jenna and Barbara's reasoning for why Daddy Dubya should be reelected:

"Our dad has qualities that are needed in a good president ? loyalty, humor (embarrassing as it sometimes may be), compassion, and, most importantly, integrity," the young women said.

Pity me, I need to find conservatives

Normally I wouldn't be, and I don't blame you for thinking I'm off my nut for seeking out conservatives. But hear me out and it might make sense. Read More

For those of us trying to persuade those potential Kerry voters with short attention spans, we need to explain what President Kerry will do for America in a very concise way- with a time limit of, say, five seconds.

For example, President Kerry will:

Raise the minimum wage to $7 an hour.
Create 10 million jobs in four years.
Affordable health care coverage for every American.
Use NATO to stabilize Iraq.
etc.

Now you try. The shorter and simpler, the better.

To all my neighbors in the Granite State: our state House Judiciary Committee will be holding a hearing on SB 427 Wednesday, starting at 9:30 am.

The New Hampshire Freedom To Marry Coalition will be holding a protest from 12-2 pm that day outside the State House. They want anyone and everyone who can come to drop by, even if it's just for a few minutes.

Also, be sure to contact your state reps before Wednesday and tell them what you think of this awful bill.

Nedra's back.

Dean supporters may not have defeated their primary opponents, but we've still got one sworn enemy working in the AP:

Dean: Bush responsible for deaths in Spain
By NEDRA PICKLER
Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) - Former Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean said Tuesday that President Bush's decision to send troops to Iraq appears to have contributed to the bombing deaths of 201 in Spain.

Didn't somebody have her e-mail address around here somewhere? She should know that we haven't forgotten about her and her "journalism."

Since numerous recent diaries have all missed this rule, it's worth repeating:

4. Use "Extended Copy" box. If your diary entry is longer than three paragraphs, use the extended entry box. Be considerate and don't clutter up the Diaries home page with epic entries.

Nuff said. Please follow this rule so those of us with limited bandwidth can peruse the Diaries more easily. Thanks.

Bush: 60 minutes to fight terror, 80 minutes for my campaign

At this rate no one should be surprised that the President puts politics before country, but here it is again, plain as day.

President Bush said privately yesterday that he believes Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) will be a tough and hard-charging opponent, but said he feels he is starting the general election from a stronger position than he did in 2000.
Bush's views emerged from an unusual 80-minute session in the Oval Office with five network correspondents who agreed that his comments would not be directly quoted or attributed to him.

snip

The Oval Office session was designed to show Bush as eager to campaign and fight back against Kerry, and to portray the president as engaged in the issues of the day. The meeting was supposed to run just half an hour, and Bush seemed to enjoy showing that he could handle whatever topics were fired at him, according to the accounts.

Stranger than fiction, indeed:

A man yelling "I'm a victim of terrorism" jumped a White House fence and ran across the North Lawn on Wednesday before being caught by Secret Service officers.
-----
A photographer for The Associated Press, who witnessed the incident shortly after 5 p.m. EST, said the man was shouting, "I'm a victim of terrorism and I need the president's help."

This was a close call. If Bush actually had met with that guy, who knows what country we'd be at war with tonight!
