that the Bushitas told.

3. Kerry arranged for her family to see her when she was first rescued.
They sent the Heinz jet to pick them up to take them to their flight to Germany.

I think the Bush administration was trying to hold them off from seeing Jessica to control their version of the story for as long as they could.

Kerry used his connex in the military to rush them through.

Jayson Blair omitted that part of the story from his reporting. I thought it was odd and then concluded that Blair was likely part of the Bush payroll.

18. That's true...

I heard he was a cool NCO and he even admitted to smoking pot and enjoyed it, but stopped because he found it easier to study and debate without it. I heard this on NPR last week. I am so happy he admitted to this and so honest.

I still wish he hadn't voted for the IWR, but I'm glad he still hasn't apologized for the the crooks and liar comment,

5. Jessica Lynch turned out to be a real disappointment...
...for Karl Rove and the Right-Wing Extremists. They were expecting her to become a poster girl for the war on Iraq, and would have made her into a larger-than-life American icon, had she remained quiet and let the right-wing propaganda machine do all of her talking. She didn't, of course, so they forgot about her like yesterday's bad news.

8. What it WILL do is make sure that WV goes blue again.
They don't like how Bush tried to play them for fools.

13. did you see the west virginia rally ?
last tuesday on cspan they showed it. and the people there were so excited and happy to see him. i know it's mostly kerry supporters but you can tell they wanted more than just to see him, it was about them needing serious change from the mess bush has caused. many of them kept asking kerry to come back and he said he will.
