Wasn't looking for quality... blah blah blah.

Kerry's been in the Senate for a long time and, as such, has built up a pretty substantial voting record. And it's not the most liberal in history. When Tim Russert asked Ted Kennedy on Meet the Press whether John Kerry was more liberal than he was, he had this to say:

"Senator Kerry is more liberal than me in the same way that President Bush is a compassionate conservative."

If I wasn't looking for quality, I must have overlooked his war record. Apparently, he won the Silver Star and the Bronze Star, both important medals of valor in combat, I believe. Toss a couple purple hearts in, the fact that he still has shrapnel lodged in him, his distinction in leadership, and the fact that he killed 20 enemy soldiers in Vietnam shows a bit of quality right there. At least more than you can say for President Bush getting in to the National Guard to avoid the draft because his daddy was big and important.

And then, John Kerry can formulate complete, grammatically correct sentences without long pauses. Unlike President Bush.

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)

"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)
