Heinz-Kerry's beef: Un-American activities vs. Un-American traits.

[MikeG]

She said traits. The Repig tried to say she said activities.

A McCarthyism accusation. Get it.

1. He mis-quoted her.

Plain and simple. Period. End of subject. The reporter was WRONG to do that. Why aren't they ragging on him? Could it be because he works for a REPUBLICAN Multi-Millionaire? Nah! Couldn't be that. :eyes:

2. You KNOW that bastard Scafe has a new agenda on Kerry..

.. as IF he'd just slunk into the darkness after fucking over Clinton with his billions. Tough shit for Scaife that Clinton came through it STRONGER! How many books has Scafe written that have sold over 1 Million?

3. I saw and heard...

her use similar phrasing in a speech days ago (maybe closer to 2 weeks)- and she was clearly expressing (my take, anyway ) that the 'hate' culture which has been midwived by the Pugs before and during Clinton was a trait not becoming to the American character. IOW, she was asking for a return to civility.

This hoo-hah is, at best, contrived - and another sign that the Rovebots are scraping the bottom of their barrels.

edited to clarify my statement.

4. "Reporter" is right-wing editor Colin McNickle, "major league asshole"...

from the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, if I may paraphrase our ever-diplomatic pResident.

In a column on July 17, McNickle wrote: "John Kerry and John Edwards, two Johns pimping for a populism that can only perpetuate poverty, haven't a clue. Now there's a campaign theme, eh?" In the same column he observed: "Liberals and socialists (is there a difference?) probably are nodding their heads vigorously about now. 'Yeah, that's the ticket! Go, Johnny, Go!'
