For once, Bush should fight his own battles

http://www.thehill.com/marshall/042904.aspx

It’s really not hard to see why many Democrats just plain old hate President Bush.

Yes, I know “hate” is a strong word and underlying it is a strong emotion. But it’s not an altogether inappropriate feeling in the face of unmitigated, unapologetic and seemingly endless gall.

Last Sunday, the president’s longtime handler and current campaign adviser Karen Hughes went on the talk shows to attack Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) over his military record and his subsequent work as a Vietnam war protester.

1. That's right, send him to Fallujah.
Pull out the troops and let him fight.

3. Yeah, let's see if his first words under attack are
"bring it on."

2. I love Josh Marshall
and I think he's got it exactly right. Kerry should not be stooping to *'s level, except to tell junior to fight his own battles. Where are the surrogates? Isn't this the prospective nominee of our party, our only chance to defeat * ? Why aren't there veterans and major Democratic politicians out there defending him? Geez...
