Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but isn't the NAFTA/offshore jobs issue being raised into public consciousness enough that Republicans talking about "encouraging enterprise" isn't going to sound the way they want it to?

We can even have the two Osamas debate. Or make it a tag team with Bush and whomever ends up representing the Democrats. Like Bush + Republican Osama vs. Kerry + Democrat Osama FITE!

;) Seriously, I just heard a Bush soundbite on NPR saying Democrats were for and against the Iraq war, the Patriot Act, No Child, and so on.. "and that's just one senator from Massachusetts." Everybody laughs. Another George W Bush joke that's not really a joke, but wow, is his audience well trained to laugh on cue.

i actually think that's a pretty good criticism of kerry. he voted to support all those things - nafta, the patriot act, attacking iraq - and now he's running on a platform that says they were all weaknesses/errors of the bush administration. his voting record, honestly, is dismal. why he'll get the nomination is really beyond my understanding.

Oh well. I await Kerry's reponse - not that the Repubs will listen - but it seems entirely sensible to me to have supported No Child when the bill was supposed to be fully funded, and advocate fixing it now that Bush has seriously neglected to provide federal funds. Support tax cuts for the middle class, against tax cuts for those who make over $200,000/year. Support using the IWR to get inspectors into Iraq, against rushing to war with no allies and no plan. I don't find this too hard to understand, actually.

Most worrying, Mr. Tenet said, the radical anti-American sentiments and destructive expertise used by Al Qaeda have spread to other Sunni Muslim extremists who are behind a "next wave" of terrorism that will endure "for the foreseeable future with or without Al Qaeda in the picture."
"People who say that this is exaggerated don't look at the same world that I look at," Mr. Tenet told the Senate Intelligence Committee as he presented a stark annual report on the threats that face the United States around the world. The broader terrorist threat, he said, "is not going away any time soon."
In his State of the Union address last month, President Bush described the world as having become "a better and safer place," since American forces overthrew Mr. Hussein last year.

"Information warfare is a tenet of war. It's part of the strategy in war and it's something we employ in Iraq to win to gain the hearts and minds of the Iraqi people. And in some cases it looks as if the Department of Defense is employing information warfare back doing this at home by not releasing accurate information or making it difficult to obtain information. That prevents the story from being told or it makes it take longer for the story to be told or it frustrates people to where they don't even try to tell the story."
Steve Robinson is no anti-war liberal. A former Special Forces soldier with 20 years' service, he now briefs Presidents. He believes we're not being told the full story.
"People don't want bad news stories coming out from this war and at every level where I need information, every time I need information from the Department of Defense or the Department of Veterans' Affairs, about the injuries of this war, I run unto obstacles. None of this is national security. None of this will cause the collapse of the coalition. It's just information that we need to understand what's happening."
Wise words...

I did a wingnut radio check tonight and a caller to the Laura Ingraham show was complaining that she and Sean Hannity were being really hard on Bush. It was crazy.
You know, sometimes when I'm in a bad mood I try to imagine what it'll be like if he does lose this November. There will be this huge gigantic celebration all over the world. The Fox News Republicans will be all, whine whine whine, the French are happy that the Democrats have won, and Kerry will be like, JE VOUS EMMERDE TOUS !

When John Kezdy fronted the influential Chicago band the Effigies in the early 1980s, it was taken for granted in most quarters that the politics of punk were left. "Punk rock attracted kids who tended to think more about music," says Mr. Kezdy, 45, now a prosecutor and a member of the Federalist Society in Illinois. "So you would think that they would also put thought into their politics. And if they thought about it more, there is nothing punk rock about voting for a party that wants to put more government in your life."
