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.

Tomorrow is March 25th, "Tolkien Reading Day," because March 25th is the day when the Ring is destroyed in the book. I think I'm going to start the Hobbit tomorrow and read all four books this time.
The only bad part of the trilogy are the Frodo/Sam chapters in The Two Towers. They're repetitive, slow, and mostly about the weather and terrain. But most everything else is good. Weirdly, the Frodo-Sam chapters in Return of the King are exciting and action-packed and among the best in the trilogy. (Though the chapters with everyone else in Return of the King get pretty slow again. Mostly people talking about marching towards war, and then marching towards war.)

[A]n asshole is somebody who looks at a painting of two toddlers doing something totally normal for toddlers and decides that it represents homosexuality and then thinks that publicly saying that is somehow edgy and clever. Instead it is doing what we accuse the Left of, that is sexualizing young children. If that describes you, own it.

Reports: The A-10 Thunderbolt, better known as The Warthog, has been unleashed on Iran
It's a heavily armored (the pilot sits in a titanim bathtub) slow-and-low loitering plane with a massive minigun firing depleted uranium rounds. The capability it brings is the ability to just fly big circles over the country waiting for a target to present itself. This is a weapons platform for eliminating vehicles and personnel. Its first task might be strafing the seas, clearing out any remaining attack boats and minelayers.
