Regardless of which side of the aisle you're on, you have to admit the Republicans have become world-class spinners. Man-O-man, the Dems are going to be afraid to say anything if this keeps up.
BTW, I'm a disgruntled Republican. I'm not too happy about the apparent disregard my party seems to have for the ordinary folks like us. The party's stated platform is what I support. Unfortunately, I don't see them following it.

Yeah, so Kerry was shooting off his mouth 30 years ago while GW was doing cocaine and smoking dope. Big deal....

3 distinct cultures can come together. It just takes time. A long time. Younger generations will weed out the old hate. There is still racist bigots in the USA and there always probably will. Although I think their numbers are diminishing and the hatred is not as intense. |

I agree with your point that it's a disgusting trend, but it's the status quo. Hard to fault any one person for playing by the playground rules. Now, how do we change those rules and make integrity count again?

As soon as both sides start coming back to the center. Take the far right religious nut jobs and the far left Howard Deans and Ted Kennedys out.

Here is what I consider an appropriate response, and from Dick Cheney no less: ""Aren't we lucky he lost that election?" the veep cracked during a campaign speech in Montana. Still poking fun at the Democrats' losing 2004 presidential candidate, Cheney added, "Of course, now Sen. Kerry says he was just making a joke, and he botched it up. ... He was for the joke before he was against it." He takes a good-natured swipe at Kerry that I thought was genuinely funny. Very different than the hate-filled bile GW was spewing a couple days before, trying to turn the entire military against one of their own. But you're right -- they all do it, and they do it because it plays.

It might under certain circumstances. I do not believe that's a realistic possibility here, given the unbridled animosity Iraqi factions feel toward the idea of the U.S. imposing itself as the nexus of this situation. Iraq will almost certainly need to be partitioned, and the result will be a more powerful and more influential Iran.
