Harkin Calls Cheney a 'Coward' and Criticizes 'Backdoor Draft'

...Harkin also shot back at Cheney, who said in a visit to Iowa on Tuesday that presidential candidate John Kerry lacks a basic understanding of the war on terrorism and cannot make America safer.

"When I hear this coming from Dick Cheney, who was a coward, who would not serve during the Vietnam War, it makes my blood boil," Harkin said. "Those of us who served and those of us who went in the military don't like it when someone like a Dick Cheney comes out and he wants to be tough. Yeah, he'll be tough. He'll be tough with somebody else's blood, somebody else's kids. But not when it was his turn to go."

Kerry—dude— you should hang with Harkin.

NOTE: Posting has been light lately because, frankly, I’m burned out on the negativity, and I’m sure many of you are as well. Barring major events, I’m gonna lay low for a spell (maybe a few days, maybe a couple weeks).

Let’s face it, the battle lines are drawn. This country is clearly divided between the thinking people, the utter imbeciles who have drunk the BushCo Kool-Aid, and those who just don’t give a crap. The media is gamed for BushCo. I feel like I’ve pretty much run this thesis into the ground here.

Bring on November.
