REPUBLICANS: KERRY WORSE THAN KKK!
By Tweed
Taking a play from. . . well. . . their own play-book, Colorado Republicans in A Can of Beer's senatorial bid took advantage of a printing mistake in the Gray Lady (New York Times) to condemn U.S. Senator and war hero John Kerry as being worse than the Ku Klux Klan. Story Here.
Democrats condemn the comparison, noting that instead of talking about issues, Republicans resort to the lowest form of politiking.
We at LB in 04 say: let's not be too hasty, Democrats. A Can of Beer, like the RNC, has every right to engage in rough politiking. His campaign team has a right to make statements that are ridiculous - like A Can of Beer stands for family values. Indeed, it is only in the marketplace of ideas that truth, yes the truth, can be set free. So let's not be too hasty, let's join the debate, let's make comparisons about candidates, such as A Can of Beer.
And by the way, Pete, if you think a comparison to a sitting United States Senator is worse than a comparison to the KKK, then you must think this is worse than this.
