(A note: This is my 1000th post! Hurray for me!)...Reason? They know that they can:
THE MILLER’S TALE: As we told you, he’s the biggest fake in American life (see THE DAILY HOWLER, 9/1/04). Last night, at the Garden, he set out to prove it. Uh-oh! His conscience wasn’t wearing those hob-nailed boots as he laughed in the face of the delegates:
ZELL MILLER (9/1/04): Motivated more by partisan politics than by national security, today's Democratic leaders see America as an occupier, not a liberator.
And nothing makes this Marine madder than someone calling American troops occupiers rather than liberators!
Wow! But who has called American troops “occupiers?” Absent-mindedly, Miller forgot to say. And of course, President Bush has routinely described the situation in Iraq as an “occupation.” But so what? Delegates wouldn’t confront such trivia on this glorious, smut-slinging night. And they wouldn’t have to know how fake Miller’s sliming of Kerry really was: (con't)
