More on "Dems the fakes"
Reading Andrew's link to the Ezra Levant piece, I found it to be a highly amusing piece. A good article for a bluesy Monday. The Canadian (presumably) gives us a pretty tight summary of the Dem strategy this year: Trying to appear pro-war when they're not. Winning over non-Democratic Party Americans, convinced that the war in Iraq is right, is the daunting task before the Democrats. The crux of the matter is this:
But the fact is -- according to every poll since 9/11 -- the American public, while concerned about the war on terror and the situation in Iraq, wants to win that war, and that the war remains their most pressing issue.
That is a challenge for the Dems, who have been anti-military since Vietnam. There is not one major military system that John Kerry didn't oppose while in the Senate, from missiles to bombers to infantry fighting vehicles -- the very tools that America now relies on today.
According to a New York Times poll, 93% of delegates to the Democratic convention oppose the war.
But the American people don't, and despite the hysterics of the Democrats' Michael Moore/Howard Dean wing, the kind of anti-Bush, anti-war, anti-military hatred that Democrat activists feel won't work on election day -- it will result in a George McGovern-style blowout at the polls.

This is why we keep hearing about Kerry the "war hero", but not the anti-war protesting Kerry that showed up after his three months. Obviously, I'm convinced that Kerry is not the man for the job. It comes down to this: Would I feel safer with Kerry or Bush?
It sure does irritate me that I'm living in a state that will probably fall into the Kerry column come November 2. Is there any way I can get an absentee for Ohio?
