Right Thinking From The Left Coast
"To what purpose are powers limited, and to what purpose is that limitation committed to writing,
if these limits may, at any time, be passed by those intended to be restrained?"

Mikey 0, Swifties 1
by Lee

Michael Moore has had his ass kicked by the Swift Boat Veterans.

Moore went after President George W. Bush with a blunt instrument, was a hero of the angry left and the darling of the old media, but did little, if anything to derail President Bush.  But lead SwiftVet John O’Neill used a scalpel to go after John Kerry, all the while being despised and hated by the old media and the angry left.  But his incisions into the Kerry campaign were precision like and left deep cuts and scars on the Kerry campaign and were considerably much more successful.  The scars remain on the Kerry campaign to this day.

The net results; a bunch of Viet Nam veterans and the New Media bested Michael Moore and his Old Media pals at their own game.

Read the whole thing.
