Excellent Kerry/Bush Analogy: Man with a crucifix against the vampire
http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/chitribts/20040824/ts_chicagotrib/bushandkerrymayhaveoverplayedwarhands

(snip) "Until now it was sort of accepted that his performance in the service was valorous," said Ross Baker, a presidential scholar at Rutgers University. "The fact that some percentage of voters are reappraising this, I think, represents a victory for the Bush-Cheney campaign.


"I always felt that this was a man who was surrounded by a fence of medals," Baker said. "It's like the story of the man with the crucifix and the vampire. Here, clearly the vampire is more resourceful than we gave him credit for." (end snip)

What an appropriate analogy! The vampire may be resourceful, but what kills vampires......sunlight. Let the sun shine on these blood-sucking scum and it will destroy them.

1. Kerry being blamed for bragging about war hero...
status. Ok. So let bush brag about his non war hero status. Let bush brag about his war president status...

This reminds me of a jealous cousin. She attacked me for 'bragging' about my kids success in life. I was a single Mom. Both my kids graduated from Law School. They were time when my kids had nothing to eat and only had two sets of clothing to wear, but education was the ultimate goal. My cousin had everything money could buy, married to a doctor. Her kids turned out losers. I was sick of her attacks and one day, I just let her have it. Like Bush on Kerry, her attacks on me were due to her failures. She had lots of wealth to show off, but no substance.
