10. I was impressed with Kerry's acknowledgement of his own responsibility...
...for this unjust war. He didn't hide behind "we were lied to." I never thought I'd hear those words from him or any of the Dems who voted for Bush's war.

But the situation is one of such egregious, thieving, traitorous behavior by the Bush junta--and utter lack of democracy, with Americans opposing every Bush policy, foreign and domestic, way up in the 60% to 70% range, for some two years now, and NO ONE IN WASHINGTON LISTENING TO US--that I CANNOT accept, and will not praise, any "benchmark" policy. I'm sure I'll have to swallow it. Neither my party nor my government cares the !@#$% what I or the vast majority of Americans think. They have Diebold and its SECRET, PROPRIETARY programming code to "select" whomever they want to rule over us.

I'm just saying--from my personal point of view, from my thoughts about the man--I'm glad he took some of the blame.

Gore is far, far, far tougher in his thinking. He called them on the torture, early on--raked them over the coals for it. That's what I want to hear: a politician on fire about the outrages of this junta.
