"Failure to perform"--working that line into Kerry's stump speech
From Liberal Oasis...

"...I ordered that 1st Lt. Bush be suspended from flight status due to failure to perform to USAF/TexANG standards and failure to meet annual physical examination (flight) as ordered.

Killian was quite prescient.

How could he have known at the time how perfect "failure to perform" would be to sum up the Bush record...

...there's something about "failure to perform" -- which can easily be woven into Kerry's stump -- that gives the whole critique some extra oomph.

For example:

-- When it came to forging a real coalition, Bush failed to perform, putting almost the entire burden on us.

-- When it to came to jobs, Bush failed to perform. He promised his tax cuts would create 6 million new jobs, and he's short 7 million.

You could go on all day."

I also read a comment suggesting that Bush own up to his mistakes and agree to go serve in Iraq to complete his obligation to the country. I'm sure his fellow guardsmen would welcome his participation.

1. That is good, but for variation Kerry should substitute "failure to
perform" with "impotent". I can already see the boils appearing on bush*s stupid monkey face when Kerry does that at one of the debates.
