Liberal Mouthpiece: Kerry's Now Both "Looser" and "More Focused"

It's pretty damn amazing, when you think about it. John Kerry, the man who is both for and against the war on Iraq; the man who is both for and against funding our troops in the field; the man who both agrees with Dick Cheney on gay marriage and yet thinks him intolerant for holding his position; the man who is simultaneously for more spending but also less spending, in order to balance the budget; the man who simultaneously promises to be "tough" and "aggressive" on terrorism while doing less about it-- well, it turns out that lately he's accomplished a new trick.

According to Ben Goddard ("Who?"), he's simultaneously "looser" and "more focused" too.

It's funny. I've never succeeded at that trick. When I'm "loose," I'm not focused, and when I'm intensely focused, I'm not "loose." The terms seem to be contradictory, by definition.

I gotta tell you: I'm really starting to think I just might vote for this cat. On a daily basis he achieves the logically impossible. How freaking cool is that?

On the other hand, I still remain of two minds. I guess you can say I'll be voting both for and against him on election day.

Well, it's becoming clearer and clearer every day that John Kerry is, in fact, the God described in the Nicene Creed.

Makes you wonder how many angels could dance on his head, if it could be proved he actually had one (it's the physical body argument that causes so much darn trouble).

Anyway, all praise Kerry, yadda yadda yadda.

I read that whole thing, reading "loser" the entire time time, thinking what's the big deal whether or not he is more focused he's still a loser.

Perhaps that is what he meant after all, it is what I hope him to be come November anyway.

The way I see it, it's kind of like "New and Improved." Yeah, there's no way something could be improved if it's never been around before. But it's a marketing tradition. We can't toss out decades of tradition simply because it doesn't make sense.

This isn't Christmas Eve fare, and I thought about waiting until the 26th to post it, but supposedly an amateur detective has solved the Zodiac killer mystery. And the horrific Black Dahlia killing. He says it's the same person! I always thought of them as very far apart in time but I think Black Dahlia was mid-fifties (nope, 1947) mid and the Zodiac murders began in 1968 so it's possible it's the same killer.

The killer, if it's the same man, would have been in his 20s when he killed the Black Dahlia and his 40s when he did the Zodiac murders. Possible.

A little caveat: I saw someone snark on Reddit, "The Zodiac case gets solved more often than Wordle." There are a ton of coincidences here, supposedly, like a Zodiac cipher being solved by the name "Elizabeth." Elizabeth Short was the name of the so-called Black Dahlia.

If you don't know about the Black Dahlia, don't look it up. Just accept that it's grisly on the level of Jack the Ripper.

Yes, the named suspect resembles the police sketch of Zodiac.

Here's a podcast with the amateur sleuth who claims he cracked the Zodiac.

Megyn Kelly finally calls out Candace Owens
Whoops, I meant she bravely attacks Sydney Sweeney for "bending the knee." (Sweeney put out a very empty PR statement saying "I'm against hate." Whoop-de-doo.)
Megyn Kelly claims she doesn't want to call people out on the right when asked about Candace Owens but then has no compunctions at all about calling people out on the right.
As long as they're not Candace Owens. Strangely, she seems blind and deaf to anything Candace Owens says. That's why this woman calls her "Megyn Keller."
She's now asking her pay-pigs in Pakistan how they think she should address the Candace Owens situation, and if they think this is really all about Israel and the Jews.
