Susan Esterich left her mind in Brooklyn when she moved to California years ago. Somebody in Brooklyn found it and thought that it was a kick ball. And those folks in Brooklyn have been kicking it ever since.

But that's all right. Susan doesn't even miss it. She is not of a mind to miss her brain.

Which specific Demo 527 ads do you believe are smearing Bush? I heard there were some on his Guard service, but did not see them. I've seen a number of the MoveOn.org ads, and they're all pretty typical political ads. Many do say that Bush has not done his job, but I did not see any that I would consider a 'smear'.

On the other hand, the Swifties are throwing up a lot of nonsense that has no supporting documentation, and relies on the memories of a few vets who have admitted to a deep disgust at Kerry's antiwar statements. Additionally, their memories are in many cases in direct conflict with the accounts of other vets who were closer to the actual action. Some, like Thurlow, even have admitted that their memories may have been affected by that disgust.
