Like most good parodies…

this is almost completely accurate. In fact it is accurate.

Is this supposed to be satire? Sounds true enough to me.

It does seem to sum up Kerry’s platform very nicely: I don’t disagree with much of anything that George Bush has done, but if you vote for me, I’ll do it better. Unless, of course, Kerry is not telling anyone what he truly believes. . . .

Even after the Democratic Convention I do not know what Kerry intends to do.

This is by far the most lucid articulation of Kerry’s platform so far in this campaign.

Kerry spins so fast he vanishes up his ownĂ– anyway, no story…

Just watched Wes Clark and other Dem hacks describe the defense relocation announced made today as “playing politics with America’s security”. This plan has been openly discussed for at least the last year.

Look, I expect the Dem attack whiners to claim if Bush takes a dump that “it’s a worrying political statement and the President is playing politcs with the nation’s freshhwater supply system” but I’m sick of watching the media unquestionably lap it up. Clark doesn’t even say why it’s dangerous – apparently the bare assertion is sufficient (guess this is where Miss Wood and DippyCola get their technique). This from a guy who wanted to go to war with the Russians 8 years after the Cold War ended. Hell, in Clark’s dispute with Clinton re Kosovo, I though that Clinton was in the right (shudder).

I suppose that if Bush did nothing, he’d be postponing America’s security to play politics. I really do expect this from the Dems, but I am so sick of the MSM giving the Dems their own infomercials under the rubric of “Network NEws”
