Kerry could use Churchill's famous "Never give in" speech against Shrub
Here is Churchill's speech as best I can remember it:

"Never give in. Never, never, never, never. Never give in, in matters great or small, large or petty. Never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense".

This, by the way, was one entire Churchillian speech to a graduating class at his boyhood public school, delivered during the darkest hours of WWII.


The trouble with George Bush is he remembers the never give in part, but doesn't give a flying fuck about honor, and would never admit a mistake even when good sense dictates a change in course is necessary.

Kerry should use this speech to beat Bush like a rug.
