Speaking of credibilty - has the media noted that the GOP's list of the books written by Lynne Cheney includes political tomes and children's history books, such as "America: A Patriotic Primer." - but missing is "Sisters," her 1981 lesbian romance novel set in the 19th century Wild West.
Or has the media noticed that Arnold said, "The president did not go into Iraq because the polls told him it was popular. As a matter of fact, the polls said just the opposite." when the reality based on Gallup was that invading Iraq was popular, with 64% of Americans supporting it in March 2003
Oh Heck - the media did not notice Zell's lies, so I guess that would be expecting too much..... sigh

GOP Fires Rhetorical Barrage at Kerry

NEW YORK — Turning from compassion to aggression, Republicans launched a withering assault Wednesday on John F. Kerry, using the third night of their national convention to attack his character, credibility and nearly 20 years in Congress.
Vice President Dick Cheney and Democratic Sen. Zell Miller of Georgia helped lead the barrage, with Cheney using Kerry's own words to portray him as too meek to lead the country at a time of peril.
"He talks about leading a 'more sensitive war on terror' as though Al Qaeda will be impressed with our softer side," Cheney said during a speech accepting his nomination for a second term.
"Faced with an enemy who seeks the deadliest of weapons to use against us, we cannot wait for the next attack," Cheney said. "We must do everything we can to prevent it, and that includes the use of military force."<snip>
Miller painted the Democratic presidential nominee as a waffler who would put the nation's security at risk.<snip>
