Kerry wins another one!!
According to the reporter at CNN, never has a candidate who won both the Iowa and NH caucuses,
not won the Democratic nomination. I'm not counting Dean out just yet. He's a fighter. But, if it should be Kerry who wins the nomination, that will be fine with me. I can support him with hope and a clear conscience. Now, if he should decide to take Clark or Edwards as his running mate, that could well be a match made in heaven.
On another note,
edwardpig has an excellent piece on the lies and the liars that are telling them, regarding the war in Iraq. He expresses my feelings to a tee, and he says it so much better than I can. He also has a link to a piece by Daniel Ellsberg on the same subject.
I have said it before, I just don't understand how so many people can think it is perfectly okay for this President to lie about something as serious as weapons of mass destruction. To lie and mislead the American people into believing that we had ample cause for declaring war on Iraq. Yet those very same people find it appalling that President Clinton lied about having a sexual liaison with a White House intern. I just don't see how the two compare. I have a dear friend who thinks that Bill Clinton is the epitome of evil. He blames Clinton for everything from Sept 11th, to the continuing failure to find and capture Osama Bin Laden. Yet he thinks the sun rises and sets on Dubya. This is a very intelligent, middle aged , retired Air Force Officer. He just cannot see that George W. Bush, has lied to us, that he and the men in his administration are determined to alter the very foundation of our country. It's people like him that really scare me. They are so blind to the truth. God help us all if they don't wake up and soon.

Translating Bush-speak
When he says...
Faith based...
What he really means is...
The purpose of the government is not to help the poor stupid peoples who don't have jobs. The purpose of the government is to help the ECONOMY. So, the people should go to the churches for help! Jesus loves you, but the government's job is to kill terrorist Iraqis and get their oil!
