And also in defense of Bush’s past record in the Guard, I would like to raise the point that no has proved that Kerry’s camp did not create those false memos.

There it is: issue closed.

I’m running about like a mad hen until Sunday, but for God’s sake, please.

(a) Kerry didn’t start a war on false pretences which hasn’t achieved any of its goals and in fact is costing money and killing people unnecessarily. While Bush has. Which is why I am so down on him, period.

(b) Absence of evidence against an accusation is damning? Hey Scott: Let’s see someone prove they did create those documents. Until someone does, I think it’s more of that “conspiracy mongering” you claim to hate so much.

(c) Kerry lied? Is this Swift Boat chatter or something else? Because those Swift Boat guys are lying, as everyone knows now.

(d) You shouldn’t declare any issue closed on any place but your own webspace. You can’t do it on mine, and it’s more than a little presumptuous to do so. If it was your page, and you wanted to end a discussion, fine. You showing up and doing it on mine is another story. Please contribute if you like, but don’t take it upon yourself to tell me when an issue is closed.

Someday soon after we get to know each other a little better I’m sure we’ll get along famously.

And I should stop replying to comments when I don’t have the time to read them carefully.

Scott, do you have a site? Can I sample more of your humor and get used to it?
