Good on Big John

While I badger John Kerry from time to time, mainly because he didn't stand up to the Swiftboaters, he would still have made a far better President than Dumbya. He also has the right idea. C&L has an excerpt from his appearance on that old, rotting, lizard-skinned idiot Imus' show:

Kerry: No, what it does is provide the only opportunity for success. Stay the course is not a plan. And what this administration wants is to have a fake debate, as usual. There, there, you hear the drumbeat on every television show from every commentator, cut and run, cut and run, cut and run, cut and run. That's their phrase.

They've found their three words, they love to do that, and they're gonna try to make the elections in November a choice between "cut and run" or "stay the course." That's not the choice. My plan is not "cut and run." Their plan is "lie and die." And that's what they're doing...Our plan is very simple. It's re-deploy to win the war on terror. Change to succeed...

The distinguished junior senator from Massachusetts is absolutely right. It's time we start pushing this meme.

Republican plan for Iraq = Lie and Die
