Kerry Bends Over
In the biggest test of his leadership mettle so far, presidential hopeful Senator John F. Kerry of Massachusetts has lined up with the cows. In a 45-minute speech, Kerry said he will vote for Bush's resolution to give him a free hand to wage war in the middle east without advice or consent from Congress. (See The Boston Globe. What a disappointment.Kerry is a fellow member of Yale's Skull & Bones, the bizarre cult that both George Bushes were members of, an association that incorporates rites that it is hard to envision any sane, civilized adult taking part in. So there was grave doubt about his character and credibility already. But he put on a good show for awhile. Oh well. Looks like we're on our own.
