Common?

I've heard this sort of thing from other Deaniacs lately - this one being "Bohemian Mama":

"Even worse than losing progressive voters and activists like myself, what about all the conservatives and republicans that Dean brought into the fold. Folks like my dad: a veteran who sees the hollow aspect of Kerry's claims regarding being a vet in that besides fighting in a war 20 years ago, what has he done in his entire political career to lead the way in helping veterans? What has he proposed in terms of concise policy for veterans and service members?"

And that's just talking about money! Let's not for get to mention the issue that's peeling a lot of responsible Democrats away from the likes of Kerry - protecting the country that the veterans protected in the first place!

By the way, in looking at Yahoo's list of Political Blogs (via Powerline), I have to wonder - how on earth to blogs like this get on the list, and Shot in the Dark doesn't? I get more visitors in a typical month than Bohemian Mama has gotten in the past year, and I'll bet dimes to dollars she gets a bigger spike out of this post than anything else she's done lately. For that matter, Fraters gets more visits in a typical week than this woman has gotten in the last ten months.

Where is the justice?

Yes, I'm snarking. Blah.
