I couldn’t help but enjoy this article…

Most of Americans look forward to the next four years with optimism. The millions of dollars spent by liberal 527s and the propaganda of the Hollywood liberals and Michael Moore was no match for Bush’s strong leadership and moral convictions. Liberals fought hard, and today we are the ones celebrating. And we have every right to celebrate.

Kerry supporters on the other hand are taking it hard.:

It’s a long way from the Manhattan office of psychoanalyst Sherman Pheiffer to the Cambridge, Mass., practice of psychologist Jaine Darwin. But both are in blue states that voted heavily for John Kerry, and on the day he conceded, they heard plenty of distress about the election.

“My patients were incredulous, depressed, angry, very frightened,” Pheiffer said. “Everyone talked about feeling frightened (about) the future of this country.”

Darwin heard the same kinds of reactions. At the end of the campaign, Massachusetts Democrats “kind of let themselves hope Kerry would pull it out,” she said, so patients felt “the roller coaster had crashed. I think we all had a little post-Red Sox magical thinking.”

And among Kerry campaign volunteers, of course, the loss was still stinging the day after the concession.

I have to say, I feel a little sorry for them, but they get no sympathy. These are the same people who stole Bush-Cheney signs, broke into Bush-Cheney headquarters across the country, vandalized property, attacked supporters of the President, etc. etc. For four years they personified the nastiness of politics, and the came out this year with a vengeance.

They’re not getting my sympathy. John Kerry in his concession speech spoke of the need to unite this country, meanwhile the supporters to whom he spoke are the very ones who divided us, and will continue to divide this nation. They are not going to go down quietly.

Truth be told, Democrats “misunderestimated” George W. Bush again. They’re going to have to accept that.

Arafat Dead

November 4th, 2004

According to the Turkish Press…

Veteran Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat died Thursday in a hospital in France, Israeli private television and military radio reported.

The 75-year-old had been treated at a military hospital on the outskirts of Paris since being flown out of his West Bank headquarters on Friday.

Doctors in Paris had earlier said that Arafat was in a coma while his top advisor had said that he was in a critical condition.

FOUR MORE YEARS!!!!

VICTORY IS OURS!!!!!!!!!!

In an interview on October 28, John Kerry revealed in an interview with Tom Brokaw (perhaps without realizing it) that his military records are in fact not all public - as he has previously claimed along the campaign trail.

That’s only half the story… Here is the original transcript of that portion of the interview via MSNBC Nightly News:

Brokaw: Someone has analyzed the President’s military aptitude tests and yours, and concluded that he has a higher IQ than you do.

Kerry: That’s great. More power. I don’t know how they’ve done it, because my record is not public. So I don’t know where you’re getting that from.

Now, since then, the Dateline NBC transcript has the incriminating line removed:

Brokaw: “Someone has analyzed the president’s military aptitude tests and yours, and concluded that he has a higher IQ than you do.”

Kerry: “That’s great. More power. I don’t know how they’ve done it.”

The latter transcript has “because my record is not public. So I don’t know where you’re getting that from,” editted out. Is NBC trying to save Kerry another controversy by removing that line because Kerry has gone on the record claiming he has released all of his military records?

A Blogs For Bush reader, Brent, has also informed me that NBC has actually aired a version of the interview with Kerry’s edited answer on Dateline.

Is NBC acting alone to protect Kerry? Or does the Kerry campaign have something to do with this cover up?
