In the most breathtakingly brain-dead example of pot-calling-the-kettle-black I’ve seen yet in the Kerry/Swift Boat Vets brouhaha, this editorial accuses the Swift Boat Vets and President Bush (whom he is apparently unable to separate in the space available in his mind) of two primary things:
- flip-flopping
- fudging events in the past for political gain
And to top it off, sort of a rhetorical flourish, I suppose, to show that he knew he was on top of his game, he says:
If it is war-time recollections we must rely on, this handful of Vietnam veterans condemning Kerry is way outnumbered by veterans who were there.
Lessee…250+ Swifties in the SBV camp, less than a dozen in the Kerry camp…carry the 2…
I’m reminded of Colin Fahey’s noble attempt to get every question wrong on the SAT.
