1. Jaysus, don't tell me Scarborough was fair?

WTF has happened to him? He seems almost human lately. I flipped this off in disgust. What did Lawrence O'Donnell say?

[wyldwolf]

2. nah... Lawrence O'Donnell was fair

[annxburns]

3. Any details?

Is it true that the one guy who did serve with Kerry and didn't like him got disciplined by Kerry?

7. Scarborough

Yes, I happened to see him speaking the other day when I was flipping channels, and he did seem normal and objective. Has he seen the light?

4. Is SCARBOROUGH Not Fit to Kill an Intern??? n/t

5. I think Kerry has been dealing with this O'neil creep his whole

Senatorial career. And, how do these people explain the shrapnal still in his leg?

6. Two links that are useful ...

http://mediamatters.org/items/200405050004 - it helps repubs that Fox debunked these guys (who would of thought?)

and http://www.snopes.com/politics/kerry/service.asp - totally debunks the purple heart crap

8. They miss the point about the severity of the wounds, IMHO.

Any of those "scratches" could have been life threatening if they had been a few inches in another direction. It's not the severity, it's that fact that he was in the battle and put himself in harm's way. That's the fate of war. Some get scratches, some die.

How anyone can even try to make that case is an insult to every American who ever faced combat. And it is particularly revolting when it's coming from people who are supporting a man who avoided the war because his Dad was connected....and still went AWOL on that obligation.
