Another look at the convention.

Ouch.

Flip-flopper-in-chief

MSNBC - Bush promises: 'Nothing will hold us back'

Keep in mind, this is the same guy who said, just a few days ago, that he didn't think the war on terrorism could be won.

GOP backs away from Miller's blast

Wow, old Zell is too crazy for the GOP, too. So much for trying to look moderate.

Winning the war on terror -- or as the rest of the world says, "terrorism"

Worldwide terorrism-related deaths on the rise

Another pro-Bush flip-flopper

Democrat Miller crosses lines, assails Kerry

Just three years ago, Miller introduced Kerry at the Georgia Democratic Party’s Jefferson-Jackson Dinner, praising him as “one of this nation’s authentic heroes” and a colleague who had “worked to strengthen our military.”

Wednesday night, by contrast, Miller denounced Kerry, whom he hailed three years ago as “one of this party’s best-known and greatest leaders.

The best part is Zeller calling Kerry "weak," just days after Bush said he didn't think the war on terror could be won.

Judgment Day - Yes on Schwarzenegger. No on Bush.

Some good points by William Saletan:

I'm no huge fan of John Kerry. He sees two sides of every one-sided issue, and four sides of every two-sided issue. But the alternative is a president who sees one side of every issue, no matter how many sides it has. Given how many sides there usually are, and given how little effort Bush makes to learn about each issue, the odds are that, on average, he'll pick the wrong side. The record of the last four years shows that he has done precisely that. But because Bush refuses to 'waver,' as Schwarzenegger charitably puts it, we keep going in the wrong direction. The only way to stop such a president is to vote him out of office. Fortunately, an election is coming.

Just in case you're believing any of that crap coming out of New York

Giuliani Charges Lack Context

As usual, the truth is more complex than a soundbite.

I'm playing the beta. And it rocks.

Bush surrenders

Man, what a flip-flopper. And Kerry looks French?

TIME Magazine: The Case Against Him

As usual, Kinsley hits it right on the nose:

Against a backdrop of great events, even a mediocrity can seem great for a while. After Sept. 11, there was certainly a great flurry of activity. War on terrorism was declared. An actual war was started in Iraq and still goes on. A Department of Homeland Security was founded. Various American freedoms have been suspended. More than $100 billion has been spent. At the rate things are going, the toll of American lives lost responding to 9/11 may exceed the toll of 9/11 itself. The toll of innocent foreigners is higher already.

But what has it all amounted to? As the most powerful nation in the world, we have managed to track down and kill a few members of al-Qaeda. No more airliners have been flown into skyscrapers in the three years since 9/11, but then that was true in the three years before 9/11 as well. Are we safer from terrorism than we were before?
