Shot In The Dark: Blast from the Past

Blast from the Past

Remember the howls of outrage when George Bush answered Larry King's question:

Well, I haven't been briefed yet, Larry. They have offered to brief me; I just haven't had time.

They called him "willfully ignorant". They called him "Smirking Chimp".

That George Bush - what an idiot!

Except it was John Kerry.

Hewitt's right. This election is the big battle between Serious America and Silly America.

I'll agree (and be ripping Big John later tonight). Hardly his finest moment.

they said he didnt have the knowledge or experience in international matters to be in a posisition of such power. . . . .

and now Bush is saying the same thing about Edwards? so either hes admitting that the dems were right about him in 2000 or that he is wrong about edwards in 2004.

Ummmmm...sure, Jason. That's exactly what he's doing.

Sheeesh.

I figured you would love that.

But seriously. . . how are the republicans going to posit that Edwards is unqualified to be vice president based on his lack of experience when the current president didnt begin with any more foreign policy experience? (and im honestly not taking a swipe at Pres. Bush, simply pointing out that both he and Edwards neither had extensive experience with international policy)

I agree, bush is no condoleeza rice when it comes to foreign policy. But he didn't pick that fight. Remember when he was compared to Gore's vast experience?

Mud flies both ways I guess.
