Reply #7: these planted questions are not getting nearly enough attention

the contrast in phoniness between Bush and Kerry should be a huge story in this election.

A Bush-Cheney campaign official said it was a coincidence that the issue of a "more sensitive" war came up a day before Cheney made it a centerpiece of a speech. During a forum with Cheney and his wife, Lynne, in Joplin, Mo., a questioner asked Mrs. Cheney "what in the world" Kerry was thinking about when he called for a more sensitive war.


"I just kind of shook my head when I heard that," Lynne Cheney said. "With all due respect to the senator, it just sounded so foolish. I can't imagine that al-Qaida is going to be impressed by sensitivity."
