The Connections keep piling up...not looking good at all for Kerry/Edwards and their 527s...
4:15PM Update
Ann Coulter, of all people, has a funny piece about the ways folks are analyzing the Swifties and Kerry and his band. Here's my favorite part:
For starters, 254 swiftboat veterans say Kerry is a fraud; 14 say he's a hero. Partisan considerations aside, which would be more difficult to do: Get 14 liars to keep a secret, or get 254 liars to do so? As a student of recent history, I defer to any registered Democrat on this question.Heh. Which sort of reminds me of this Cox & Forkum cartoon...
Of course, the 14 in Kerry's camp are not necessarily lying, being bribed, or hoping for a position in the Kerry administration – possibilities the media will never raise, I note. But we're talking about 35-year-old memories here; 254 memories to 14 memories is what we used to call "evidence."
Why don't we just give both sides some swiftboats, a few machine guns and lots of ammo, put them on a river somewhere, and let them settle this whole thing like gentlemen once and for all?
Mark's Remarks
Doesn't Ann Coulter know: If the truth is freed, Kerry will screed!
It is amazing to me that where once people talked of 254:14 ratios as landslides, today we are told to look at 14 and ignore the 254. I mean, really, if 300 people saw something, and over 200 remember it one way, wouldn't you be more likely to believe the 200+ over the 14?
What am I thinking? I am attempting to imply logic to liberal arguments...never mind!
