The Daily Bleat: Kerry supporters are "classy people!"
2004-03-09
Excerpted from today’s "Bleat:" Lileks fisks the Kerry campaign weblog--
Man: classy people, eh? Classy people!

So Teresa Heinz-Kerry passes out buttons that say “Asses of Evil,” with pictures of Bush, Cheney, Rummy and Ashcroft on them. There you have it: the President of the United States is an Evil Ass. I’d love for someone to put this question to Kerry in the debate: Senator Kerry, your wife handed out buttons that called the President an Evil Ass. Do you believe he is Evil, an Ass, or both? And if I may follow up, I’d like to ask if you can possibly imagine Laura Bush doing that. Thank you.

This happened on December 7, a day whose significance was not noted in the blog entry, and the author includes this interesting note:

He also spoke about the recent Bush Thanksgiving visit to our military in Iraq, carrying a platter laden down with a fake turkey, smiling for a photo op.

I’d love to know if Kerry said it was a fake turkey, or whether that’s the author’s addition. A glimpse into the heart of the faithful followed in the next paragraph:

People were hungry for the food we had prepared, but more so, hungry for John’s message of hope.

Which goes great with a béarnaise sauce, I hear. Chow down! Look, people, it’s one thing to drink the Kool-Aid, but it’s another to pee it into Dixie Cups and pass it around. . . .
Go read it all . . . if you haven’t already . . . which you should, every day.
