Here's a link to listen to Kerry's interview on Ed Schultz today:
http://www.thedemocraticdaily.com/...
He stopped by to talk about the military paying for planted news stories in Iraq.
Seen also today at the signing of the bill to give Rosa Parks a statue at the Capitol. He was one of the co-sponsors of the bill, along with Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr.
More after the fold.
Busy boy that he was, the good Senator was also on the Today Show this morning (dang, why do I keep missing these things!?)

In other news, I also found something that, after yesterdays Kos festivities, amused me no end. From The New Republic, of all people:
http://www.tnr.com/...
Here is the pertinent amusing bit:
One particularly cunning variant of the "Cut and Stay" Democrat is the DailyKos Pleaseasaurus. These versatile creatures deliver a highly appealing mating call to the party's angry antiwar base--particularly blogosphere liberals who traffic sites like DailyKos.com--by issuing troop-withdrawal calls that seem more dramatic than they actually are. Chief among such creatures is Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold, a longtime war opponent who wants an announced timeline for full troop withdrawal by the end of December 2006. In reality, Feingold's exit strategy comes with major, often overlooked caveats that essentially call off the withdrawal if security conditions don't allow for it. Likewise, John Kerry preened for blogosphere liberals in an October Georgetown University speech savaging the Bush administration for its management of the war. "or misleading a nation into war, they will be indicted in the high court of history," Kerry thundered. "History will judge the invasion of Iraq one of the greatest foreign policy misadventures of all time." But Kerry's actual prescription is remarkably tame: a drawdown of 20,000 troops after the December Iraqi elections, followed by nothing more specific than "the withdrawal of American combat forces linked to specific, responsible benchmarks." (my note: with the goal of all troops out by the end of 2006 -- why do people like to leave that bit out?) Scientists expect to see more Gradualmorphs mimicking such tricks in 2008 primary state locales like Iowa and New Hampshire.
Ain't that just sweet? What a buncha kidders, eh? (Mutter, mutter)

In an unrelated comment, I'd just like to suggest re: the censorship of the Jean Schmidt billboard, that I think if anyone in Ohio has the ways and means to make up a large version of the DNC ad, they should do so, and hang that sucker from as many overpasses in the Cincinatti area as they can. Stuff it, Lamar Advertising. :P
Welp, that'll just about do it for this edition of the "Kerry News Dump O' the Day." Enjoy!
