1. It isn't on here yet
It's pushed back by pre-season football.

Not that that's an indication I live in Red Neck World.

2. Not here either.
I get ABC from NYC/LA and El Paso. Looks like they are running way behind. Koppel must be fuming.

5. "Adding to the murkiness"
They said "adding to the murkiness" of Kerry's service is the fact that some of the Swift Boat Liars praised Kerry's record in the past.

I guess it's not a controversy if they said, "It's BS!" It's got to make it "murky".

6. Kerry opened himself up to criticism...
...because he tauted his war record. Sure. But does that mean people can make crap up?

10. That's the "she was wearing a skirt, she deserved to be raped" theory
Kerry served in Vietnam and isn't ashamed of it, he deserves to be lied about and attacked for his service to his country.

7. For those on the West Coast/Mountain Time
Don't bother to watch. ABC didn't take apart the lies.

8. I didn't think it was that bad ...
basically made the smear vets look like disgruntled idiots. Tapper was obviously bending over backwards to appear fair - but I thought it was a plus for the good guys.

The best was Jon Stewart on the Daily Show (which has more people watching than Nightline, doesn't it?). He eviserated the ad. It was AWESOME!

9. Yes, that was great
Edited on Tue Aug-10-04 12:18 AM by alarcoeg
and I loved that Clinton picked up on it right at the start of his interview.
