B* on LKL
LK concerned about the lack of civility in America. LK "Is it hard to stay away from it?" B* "Not really (Cheney and Karl ensure that America is incivil)...I have a lot of explaining to do on decisions I've made...There's a class of politicians who get on the radio and feel like it's there duty to stir things up" (You mean like Hannity and Limbaugh?)

B* "When I travel the country, there are thousands of people who come out and wave (Note to B*: They aren't waving)

LK "Should Kerry's service record be an issue?" B* "I think it is an issue, cause he views it as honorable service and so do I...They ought to get rid of all the 527s (Refuses to condemn the ads...I haven't seen them)

B* Compares Japan today to Iraq in 50 years. "Free countries will be peaceful countries" (Like America?)

LK "The war seems never ending" B* "It's painful when we lose someone...I've met with many families"

LK Addresses 'The Pet Goat', B* "I made the decision there that we would let this part of the program finish, then I would calmly stand up and thank the teacher and thank the children... I think what's important is how I reacted when I realized when I realized America was under attack. It didn't take me long to realize we were at war.(7 minutes is not long?) It didn't take me long to develop a plan that would go after Al Quieeda"

14. He has not met with many families, I think.
He has not attended any funerals, for example, I think.

I doubt if he will ever meet with the woman in F911 who lost her soldier son. Not brave enough.

LK "You were first opposed to the 9/11 commission and then changed." B* "Not really. (Fact check time) I wanted to make sure it was done the right way. One of my concerns was that it would usurp the Congresses need to fully investigate. (?) Then I realized this was a good avenue. A good venue"

"I thought it was a great report. I read it...Well we have already implemented a lot of their recommendations."

8. CBS: Bush Opposes 9/11 Query Panel
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/05/15/attack/main509096.shtml

President Bush took a few minutes during his trip to Europe Thursday to voice his opposition to establishing a special commission to probe how the government dealt with terror warnings before Sept. 11.

Mr. Bush said the matter should be dealt with by congressional intelligence committees.

LK "Do you run into people who say, 'I don't know' (undecideds) or do you run into people who say, 'I support you'." B* "I run into both. And when you say run in, the President doesn't just run into anybody.(Especially if the rallies are by invitation only)"

B* "Occassionally there is a not so friendly wave... People are begining to understand my deep desire to spread freedom around the world. (Note: mayhem now equals freedom)"

16. She's even dumber
than he is. LK asks Laura, regarding her vocal stance against more stem call research, "Is it that you're morally opposed to it?" She says,
"No, I'm not opposed to it." Hello. Let's make a big deal of this.

LK "Does the buck stop with you? Pres. Kennedy was told the Bay of Pigs would go smoothly and he took the rap". B* "I've taken the rap too...That's what elections are about." LK "Didn't it say on that ship, 'The battle is over'". B* "Now be careful there, I didn't say (buck, prepare to be passed). I went on that aircraft carrier to thank the crew." LK "The sign said that" B* "The sign said mission accomplished and I was talking to sailors and pilots who had been on an extended tour...And I wanted to look them in the eye and thank them (Fact check time) In the speech I said, 'There is more hard work to do'. And I would do it again"
