I think Matthews has been shining Bushs boots for years now, but this is awesome. Right wing asswipe Michele Malkin (the Asian American who just wrote a book entitled "In Defense of Internment") actually suggests that John Kerry shot himself to get a medal. Once Matthews hears this, he literally reaches over and rips Michele Malkins heart out. My favorite "this isn't the kind of show for allegations like that".
When you venture out of freeper land Michelle, prepare to get properly bitchslapped.
Ahh the sound of the twenty sided die rolling a +5 hit to magic resistant armor. It takes me back. Did I ever sound this pathetic? My head says no, but my heart says yes. Luckily I've put those days behind me and now concentrate on dorky computer games.
Happy Birthday Dungeons and Dragons. I sometimes miss you. But the call of Lady Vagina rolled a 20 with a +9 bonus to my penis.

To all the people who think Kerry is being a "flip flopper" or a hyopcrite, or stupid, for recently saying that knowing what he knows know he would still vote "for the war", heres how it is.
The vote was NOT a yes or no vote about going to war. The vote was giving the authority for Bush to go to war. The question is, did Bush use that authorty correctly, or did he, as John Kerry put it so succinctly then proceed to "fuck it up".
Kerry said that yes he still would vote to give him the authority. And on this he has been consistent. Here is what he said in the senate the day of the vote.
Let there be no doubt or confusion about where we stand on this. I will support a multilateral effort to disarm him by force, if we ever exhaust those other options, as the President has promised, but I will not support a unilateral U.S. war against Iraq unless that threat is imminent and the multilateral effort has not proven possible under any circumstances.
[snip]
In voting to grant the President the authority, I am not giving him carte blanche to run roughshod over every country that poses or may pose some kind of potential threat to the United States. Every nation has the right to act preemptively, if it faces an imminent and grave threat, for its self-defense under the standards of law. The threat we face today with Iraq does not meet that test yet.
[snip]
Congressional action on this resolution is not the end of our national debate on how best to disarm Iraq. Nor does it mean we have exhausted all of our peaceful options to achieve this goal. There is much more to be done. The administration must continue its efforts to build support at the United Nations for a new, unfettered, unconditional weapons inspection regime. If we can eliminate the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction through inspections, whenever, wherever, and however we want them, including in palaces--and I am highly skeptical, given the full record, given their past practices, that we can necessarily achieve that--then we have an obligation to try that as the first course of action before we expend American lives in any further effort.
[snip
In giving the President this authority, I expect him to fulfill the commitments he has made to the American people in recent days--to work with the United Nations Security Council to adopt a new resolution setting out tough and immediate inspection requirements, and to act with our allies at our side if we have to disarm Saddam Hussein by force. If he fails to do so, I will be among the first to speak out.
So. Kerry maintains that the president needed to have the option of force on the table in getting the inspectors to do there job. Thats what the vote was about. It wasn't a "Yes invade Iraq now" "No, let the inspectors finish" choice.

The "ask the president" rallies. One of my favorites is the "I dont have a question I just have 3 thank you's". Also notice the Kerry Edwards clip they show allows anyone, including hecklers.
The transcripts are absolutly jawdropping.
Q Mr. President, you were a fighter pilot, and you were with the 147th Fighter Wing?
THE PRESIDENT: Yes.
Q And flew a very dangerous aircraft, the Delta F102?
THE PRESIDENT: Right. And I'm still standing.
Q I want to thank you for serving our country. (Laughter.)
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you.
Q Thank you for serving.
And if John McCain still holds any lingering doubts that he is supporting a scumbag who stands by while people trash a hero's war record, like he did in 200, this will answer his question:
Q On behalf of Vietnam veterans -- and I served six tours over there -- we do support the President. I only have one concern, and that's on the Purple Heart, and that is, is that there are over 200,000 Vietnam vets that died from Agent Orange and were never -- no Purple Heart has ever been awarded to a Vietnam veteran because of Agent Orange because it's never been changed in the regulations. Yet, we've got a candidate for President out here with two self-inflicted scratches, and I take that as an insult. (Applause.)
THE PRESIDENT: Well, I appreciate that. Thank you. Thank you for your service. Six tours? Whew. That's a lot of tours.
Let's see, who've we got here? You got a question?
Notice he lets that vile statement stand without saying a word. In fact, he appreciates it.
Thats bringing honor and integrity ack to the White House all right.
He is a morally bankrupt human being.
