Summary: Today we go over the reasons why you should vote, why you should help to get out the vote, and why you should help to get out the vote for Harold Ford, Jr.*. Also, who is this mythical Democratic candidate that Republicans say will raise your taxes your taxes and make you less safe? Repeat after us, “He does not exist.” You know what does exist? Missing weapons. As in, missing U.S. weapons. As in, 1 of every 25 weapons the military bought for Iraqi security forces is missing. That’s 14,000 missing weapons. And Freddie suggests that John Kerry zip it while Barack Obama can keep right on talking.
*Ford says, “Whatever the intent, Senator Kerry was wrong to say what he said. He needs to apologize to our troops…[but] words don’t alter the fact that the stay-the-course strategy pursued by President Bush and supported by Bob Corker isn’t working. We need a new direction in Iraq. I know how hard our troops work, and the sacrifices they make, for our freedoms. They deserve a plan for victory as good as they are, and as senator I intend to see they get one.”
