Trib editorial about Kerrys wife....

saying she needed to be a lady before she could be a first lady. Anyone else see it?? Rather surprised at first, since most "Voice of the People" commentaries they publish are usually democratic in nature...

2. Yeah,

I remember reading that this morning. Feh. Betcha the same woman that wrote it wasn't bothered by Cheney's remark to a Senator. Probably thinks it's "just something that boys do".

4. Voice of the People Commentary is not an editorial.

It sounds like a long letter to the editor, or "guest column" by a reader. Editorials are written by an Editor and reflect the paper's editorial policy. Please provide a link, or at least the full name and location of the paper.

5. And Cheney needs to be a ...

Dick "I had other priorities than Vietnam" Cheney needs to be a gentleman before he can be a man.

Shrub Bush needs to be a thinker before he can cut the puppet strings and be a leader.

8. Here's a Newsday Editorial

"BY KEN KURSON
Ken Kurson is co-author, with Rudolph Giuliani, of 'Leadership.'

July 29, 2004

Since Sunday night I've waited for a single journalist to get this story right, this story of an ugly lie that's been reduced to an adorable quip."

http://www.newsday.com/news/opinion/ny-vpkur293909463jul29,0,7564215.story?coll=ny-viewpoints-headlines

Newsday has a Liberal Slant. And the story is not very nice to her.

In short; I'm worried.
