But seriously ...
But seriously, John Kerry's botched joke, the wingnuts' reaction to it, and his reaction to their reaction shouldn't be the point.
Here's the point. The Republicans control the White House and both houses of Congress. The President has gotten thousands of Americans killed in Iraq, in an unjustifiable war that has not achieved its goals (and will not, as long as this band of incompetents is in charge of it). Bush has repeatedly violated the law, the Constitution, and his oath of office, and the Republican Congress has let him get away with it, even to the point of changing the law to make his illegal actions legal.
Here's the point.
Vote next Tuesday. The Democratic party may not be perfect, but at the moment it's the only tool we have to take back this country.
