"We're really blessed in this country to have the Judeo-Christian tradition of wanting to love each other and help each other have better lives and to enjoy life and be good to each other. As opposed to the tradition of some Islamofascist localities where they do the reverse - sending their own children off to be blown up."

    Michael Moore Makes Bush’s Point, That Kerry is Extremely Liberal

    The Drudge Report, with its famed nose for the money quote, unearths this gem about Kerry from Michael Moore:

    Moore said Kerry may not be perfect, but is far superior to former Vice President Al Gore and this year’s other Democratic presidential hopefuls. “There’s a reason that they’re saying Kerry is the No. 1 liberal in the Senate,” said Moore. “It’s because he is the No. 1 liberal in the Senate.”

    That’s what we like to see – Michael Moore, backing up the number one slam against Kerry currently being put forward by the Bush campaign, namely, that he’s a Liberal. Per Dick Morris:

    ...as Kerry moved to domestic policy and extolled his “plan” for job creation, health care, Social Security and Medicare, Bush shifted his attack much less calling Kerry a flip-flopper, much more accusing him of liberalism and tax-and-spend policies.

    By declaring in the third debate that Kerry inhabits the far left bank of our politics, well away from the mainstream, Bush hit pay dirt.

    Knowing that Kerry would seek to win the domestic issues by promising the moon, Bush, in great jujitsu style, used the Democrat’s strength against him, coming around his right flank adding up the cost of the promises and underscoring his adversary’s liberalism.

    Some people will hear that and say, “Yeah! Being a Liberal is good. It’s good that Kerry’s the biggest Liberal in the country.” But some others will say, “Yeah… ah… waitaminnit… so Bush is right… even Moore is admitting it… ahhh… so maybe it’s all true—Kerry wants to tax us like crazy and cut the military… maybe Kerry’s not the right guy to be President right now.”

    I’m glad to see Moore scoring points for the Right. And I don’t think it’s unintentional on Moore’s part. The guy’s inherently not a team player.


    Student Protest Planned for This Friday Against MTV/Dems’ False Statements About the Draft

    Kerry’s false statements about the draft have sparked a protest by college students planned for this Friday:

    Last week, the House of Representatives voted against a Democrat-sponsored bill to reinstate the draft by a margin of 402 to 2, and both President Bush and Defense Secretary Rumsfeld are on record saying that a draft is unnecessary.

    And yet MTVs Rock the Vote (www.rockthevote.com) posted a fake draft induction card signed by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld that says ‘this could be you.’ At the same time, John Kerry continues to use the draft as an issue in his campaign, saying that there is ‘great potential’ one will be reinstated if President Bush is reelected. Clearly, Rock the Vote has a bias toward John Kerry, which violates their non-partisan and non-profit status.

    A protest is scheduled outside the MTV offices in Santa Monica from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Friday, October 22. To get the flier, click here.
