John Kerry’s press conference: immediate impressions
This man—this base and stunningly unscrupulous fraud—will say absolutely anything to get elected. Bottom line? Kerry is a lanky, pampered, condescending skin tube stuffed with boundless ambition and not much else. Except maybe pate. And toast points. But you know what I meant.

Twentieth in a a series of real-time empirical observations
In the time it takes you to read this post, Bush nemesis and Texas prairie loon Bill Burkett will have “uncovered” a series of documents suggesting that Bush the elder passed nuclear secrets to former “To Tell the Truth” star Kitty Carlisle in exchange for “3 bags of toasted pecans and a nice long spanking on my anxious naked bottom.”*

Rathergate: The Final Frontier
Well, let’s see. I’d planned to jot down a few thoughts about the latest RatherGate revelations, but Allah has already covered those in excrutiating detail—and with that same sodden sense of jittery, overtired bemusement I find myself swimming in these days. So no need. Meanwhile, Bill INDC sharpens his beak and takes a few hungry pecks at that giant, stunned CBS eyeball (the one that crazed loon Bill Burkett hopes

Kerry campaign advisor Joe Lockhart puts his foot down

Rather to America: “I’m sorry. But not quite sorry enough to tell you the whole truth. For that, I’d have to be, like, really REALLY sorry.”
Who is your “unimpeachable source,” Dan? Out with it. Because it ain’t Burkett, that’s for sure. C’mon. We’re waiting…. **** update: visualize, my children.

Team Kerry: “Do as we whine, not as we assert”
Fresh off a week’s worth of faux outrage over Dick Cheney’s suggestion that a Kerry administration will make America more vulnerable to terrorist attacks (a suggestion he never made), the Kerry campaign today warned Americans that the reelection of George Bush will almost certainly lead to Armageddon. Because they have no shame. Whatsoever. None. random fabricated headline: “Incredibly stupid people in all 50 states threaten to cast votes for John

Hmmm.
Hmmmm.* For the record, I believe Burkett to be a classic patsy—an ideologue with an ax to grind whose history of anti-Bush lunacy is being exploited by someone with a bit more juice than Burkett could muster on his own. I believe Cleland was used by that same person or persons. Bill INDC shares my reservations—at least in regard to Burkett. Michele, too. I speculated early this morning that Burkett
