The Kerry Kerfluffle
So we all know what Kerry said, right? Could there be any bigger example as to how desperate the Republicans have become? Instead of facing the Democrats on the issues (you know, Iraq... the deficit... corruption... pedophile congressmen...) they hit them with the fact that Kerry's a bad comedian. Forget about the fact that Iraq's prime minister ordered U.S. checkpoints in Sadr City to be dismantled so that a radical cleric can control the streets with his death squad. Forget about the fact that more than 100 U.S. soldiers were killed in Iraq last month. Forget about the fact that the United States Central Command says that Iraq is moving towards total chaos. Forget about the fact that... well, you get the picture.
No, the Republicans can't be bothered by all that "reality" stuff. The real problem facing America is that John Kerry can't tell a joke without fucking it up. That's the Republican message right now. That's how desperate they have become. Their new campaign slogan is going to be "Vote for us because we can tell better jokes." Maybe they've forgotten about that little joke Georgieboy played where he pretended to be looking for Iraq's missing WMDs in the Oval Office. Talk about fucking up a joke. I'll bet there are about 2,800 dead soldiers that don't find that too fucking funny right now.
So what should we take away from all of this? Other than the Republicans are desperate, of course. The lesson is this: According to the Bush administration, fucking up a joke about the education of our country's leadership is bad, but telling a joke about a mistake that has led to the death of American soldiers is okay.
Yeah, that's gonna go over real well. Only six more days until we flush these shitheads out of office.
