Today's the start of the mother of all backlashes!
“Out of desperation, the Bush campaign has picked the wrong fight with the wrong veteran,” said Jim Jordan, former Kerry campaign manager who now runs an outside group airing ads against Bush. “Today’s the start of the mother of all backlashes.”

Amen. Rove's plan all along was to play Hero vs AWOL and take attention away from the Summer of '72. I hope Karl finally pushed the wrong button.

1. Geez
Is Michelle Malkin starring in the prequel to the exorcist? In that picture it looks like her head's about to spin like Linda Blair's did.

3. I have an idea
Create some "chickenhawk" ads going after the service records of Bush, Cheney and the neo-cons. Threaten to air them, warning that they have ads that will make their heads spin. Then leak them to the media. As the ads will be so hard-hitting, the networks will be enticed to air them--for free--and the message will be delivered.

Symbolman. Haven't seen him here lately but I guess he's still doing Take Back the Media.

4. OMG...Michelle Malkin CRACKS ME UP!
She's actually a beautiful woman until she starts talking, then she goes Exorcist!! Try this: hit the mute button on MM, it is hilarious the faces she makes! Plus then you don't have to hear her whining. We did this when she was on Bill Maher and it was pretty funny!

5. thanks for posting this, its my fav paragraph tonite!
When I read it earlier I just knew Kerry was ready for the fight. I hear earlier on the news a dem stratagist talking about Kerry just waiting for the right time to fight back and watching. I guess while a lot of us wanted him to jump Kerry had the patience although scarey for us to wait until Bush sank deep into the mud. Think about it, if bush wasn't muddy enough it would just look bad for kerry to fight. now everyone knows he is justified.

7. Yes. A friend says that you can't beat up Bush too hastily
because then it looks like you are beating up the little retarded boy.


Now that it is clear to everyone (not just us) that Bush has been underhanded on all this, the time to hit back is NOW.

8. I actually get depressed when I see what Malkin stoops to
I wonder what her Filipino ancestors woulda thought of her actions today? I'm sorry but it's like seeing an African-American sticking up for Strom Thurmond
