Nasty Hatred: Whoopee for Whoopi! Friday, July 16, 2004 Whoopee for Whoopi! She did more to reveal John Kerry’s true face than all his series of expensive Botox injections could do to mask it. Ms. Goldberg, not to be confused with Molly, that beloved lady of the radio and television series, has earned a Helping Hand Award from the Republican National Committee. Republicans have been struggling, with notable lack of overwhelming success, to get across to the American electorate that the most-radical member of the Senate is a shallow fraud when it comes to values. If he doesn’t lack them altogether, he keeps switching positions so fast and furious it’s been well-nigh impossible to pin down whatever they actually may be. Couldn’t Be Clearer Not anymore. Ms. Goldberg has up and saved the GOP the trouble, cutting right through the obfuscations of the leftist news media’s industrial-strength fog machine. It’s not entirely impossible that decent folk may be reading this. So, it won’t do to repeat here the unabridged text of Ms. Goldberg’s genitalic gutter language in venting her hatred of the president of the United States. In case anyone’s forgotten, that’s the same country that makes it possible for the likes of her to say whatever comes out of their dirty minds. The specifics of Ms. Goldberg’s garbage attack matter little. It’s what happened right after she vomited at the big Hollywood celebrity-spangled New York fund-raiser for John Kerry that says it all. Egging Whoopi On Even worse than Kerry-Edwards’ sharing the same platform with little Miss Foul Mouth, grinning like Cheshire cats and patty-caking like tickled children, was Kerry’s own volunteer performance as cheerleader of smut. Clutching the microphone and baying in his most-profound basset-hound basso, Kerry announced to the entire voting populace that this filth “conveyed the heart and soul of America.” Did you know such outhouse-wall utterances were what makes up your heart and your soul? Better Take Stock That’s what the multi-millionaire Massachusettsean who fancies to be president says is the very core of what you and your family and your loved ones and your neighbors are all about. Shame on you! Go wash out your heart and soul. So there you have John Kerry’s values – and by association, John Edwards’ as well. In words that can be repeated here, those values of Whoopi Goldberg, as gratuitously endorsed in no uncertain terms by John Kerry, are nastiness and hatred. They’re the Authorities This is not the judgment of someone who wishes to see George W. Bush returned to the White House for a second term. It is the open testimony of John Kerry and John Edwards, themselves. Ms. Goldberg, by her own words, is hateful. By his glowing endorsement, so is John Kerry. By his pusillanimous association, so is John Edwards. There You Have It The syllogism is complete: The values of John Kerry and John Edwards are hatred and nastiness. Thank you, Whoopi. You may sit down now. Friday, July 16, 2004 John Perry for NewsMax.com

To me, it all seems a little disingenuous. To me, that seems unfair. All the liberals in my set are very sincere about taking care of the little people. They pay their taxes without complaint and give very, very generously to charity. The better off they are, the more they count their blessings by spreading them around. They may be misguided in the notion that the world owes everyone a living and that government is the best way to provide it, but they are undoubtedly sincere about spreading the wealth. I have no reason to question John/John's embrace of that model and I don't think it warranted to call them "disingenuous." Unless, of course, you just said that to provoke John into a response, in which case forget I mentioned it. <g> Re your question about the difference between Kerry's approach and Hillary's, as I recall, Hillary was pushing a single-payer system whereas Kerry seems to be advocating some kind of a hybrid Medicaid/employer program just for the uninsured.
