Kerry is no longer a viable candidate

Speaking of the French...this guy get it

French driver targets pedestrian he mistook for bin Laden!
Wed Mar 17 2004 08:26:32 ET

A driver in the southern French city of Montpellier who tried to run down a pedestrian he believed was Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden on Tuesday was given a three-month suspended sentence.

On Monday, the driver, a 35-year-old craftsman, chased the would-be bin Laden through the streets of Montpellier, running a red light and driving through a pedestrian zone.

He only failed to hit the pedestrian when his car ran into a staircase.

The driver, who was not identified, said he had experienced a delirious episode, attributing his folly to current fears over the global terrorist threat.

The court in Montpellier also ordered the driver to seek counseling and pay 500 euros (615 dollars) in damages to the victim.

Good thing he isn't a Mountie ;)

Also, why would he have to pay the guy he chased if he never actually hit him?

Labour forges ties with US' Democrats

Norway's Labour Party is joining other European social democrats in linking up with the Democrats in the US. The goal is to be prepared with common strategies if a majority of them on both sides of the Atlantic come back to power.

A group of European social democrats, led by former British Foreign Minister Robin Cook, met last week with several top Democratic politicians and party officials. They included US senators Hilary Clinton and Joseph Biden.

They also had meetings with Ron Klain of presidential candidate Wesley Clark's campaign, and Stan Greenberg, former US President Bill Clinton's campaign strategist in 1992.

On the agenda was European concern over current US foreign policy and the effects of globalization.

Espen Barth Eide, who led the Norwegian delegation, said the group met "understanding" that "economic globalization must be accompanied by political globalization."

There remain wide differences between the European social democrats and their counterparts in the US, who tend to be far more conservative.

Barth Eide called it "natural" however, "to begin with those (in the US) who are closest to us (in ideology), even though the Democrats of course aren't social democrats."
 
Would this be the same Sen McCain that co-sponsored the bill limiting free speech? Of course it would. Yep, I trust him. :brush:
 
I don't trust any of them, Gonz. But I do see a growing apathy and cynicism that might manifest itself as low voter turnout come November. I know I feel it within myself. :shrug:

If you do not exercise your right to vote, you will surely use your right to remain silent... ;)
 
There once was a man from Nantucket
Whose misstatements could fill up a bucket.
Oft the truth he has bent,
Like his "Irish descent."
Of his record he says, "I'll just duck it."

"Sen. Kerry, You Voted Against $87 Billion To Provide Body Armor For Troops In Combat, Higher Combat Pay, And Better Health Care For Reservists And Their Families. Why?"

“I actually did vote for the $87 billion before I voted against it.” (Richard W. Stevenson and Adam Nagourney, “Bush’s Campaign Emphasizes Role Of Leader In War,” The New York Times, 3/17/04)

Dude...you've gotta look deeper than that for the truth. What is never as important as why. Think over that a bit...
