Kerry says Bush took us to war at the wrong time for the wrong reason. Bush responds by saying Kerry flip-flopped. As a voter, I'd prefer if Bush responded to the substance of what Kerry said. I know that the Iraq war isn't with the people responsible for 9-11. The Republicans had better hope this little secret doesn't get out. I think that's why Bush does his little dance around the question, sneering at Kerry, while not answering the question.

I heard a report on NPR today from a reporter who went looking for US soldiers who had been wounded, not killed, and found that while the war supporters like to say they support the troops, they're mostly alone. She told the story of a soldier who was blinded by shrapnel and lost an arm, living by himself in a trailer in West Virginia. The man can't see.

To all the people who are disappointed in Kerry's campaign (I am one of them) I think we need to start seeing this as our campaign. If you love this country, we can't let Bush have four more years. I don't care if Kerry flip-flops, we'll deal with him once he's in office. We just can't afford four more years of Bush. To pretend this is Kerry's problem is to shirk our responsibility.

Ed Cone reports on John Kerry in Greensboro. "W stands for Wrong." Amen. I'm willing to give him the letter, as long as we remember that little association. W stands for Wrong. Excellent.

I've gotten a bunch of email from people wanting me to come to Vancouver for a spicy noodles type dinner. Twist my arm. ;-> I plan to be in Seattle through the November election, and Vancouver is just a hop over the border, I can even take a ferry, so let's plan a dinner, a couple of weeks from now, and I'll be there!
