RE: Character

Mr. Guttman,

I just saw you on the Laura Ingrham TV show where you said that since Senator McCain can’t discuss the “issues” he began a “character” attack on Senator Bambi.

One of the common denominators of modern American Liberals is a total ignorance of the past. C.S. Lewis was right when he referred to your type as “Men without chests”. When you say character as if it were a four letter word you have, to mangle an adage, forgotten everything and learned nothing.

Permit me to introduce you to some thoughts on “character”.

“Character is destiny” said Heraclitus.

“Character”, said James Madison “is the single most important thing to ask about someone seeking public office.”

“We can never be too curious about the character of men seeking public office”, said Samuel Adams.

On the other hand…Governor Michael Dukakis, the man who furloughed Willie Horton, the man who told Iowa farmers to think about planting endives instead of corn, the man who held the title of America’s Biggest Horse’s Ass for the picture of him driving a tank until Senator Jay Forbes Kerry claimed it when he wore a bunny suit for some strange reason, insisted that the 1988 election was about “competence, not character”.

Hard times don’t build character; they reveal it.

The only hard times I see that Senator Bambi had were not hearing what Pastor Wrong Wright said for 20 years, ducking votes in the Illinois legislature, getting an earmark of $1,000,000 for his wife’s employer after she got a $4,000 a week – repeat - $4,000 a week raise, being for gun control before he was against it, and being deeply, profoundly exorcised over the price of arugula.

That he countenances B list surrogates to attack Senator McCain speaks, sadly, volumes about his lack of character.

Senator McCain has been tested in a way that few men ever are.

He passed.

The grade on Senator B. Hussein Obama is…“incomplete”.

Guttman is a little whiner, scared Palin is overshadowing the Obamassiah. This is going to be fun. History will be made, one way or another, and it looks more likely now that it will be the right history.

Even more Hillary supporters will go for McCain now. Obama is no longer a near certainty. Heaven forbid something happens to McCain, but I believe Palin would rise to the occasion. She has the right attitude. Everyone knows Obama is NOT ready for POTUS, Palin is only for the VP. Look at Dan Quayle.

YEY SARAH PALIN! YEY John McCain! Great pick! The 1st woman for the GOP VP? SCORE!

She's conservative! SCORE! She's a Governor! SCORE! She's pro-drilling! She's a hunter! SCORE! She doesn't believe the MMGW Scam! SCORE! She's a hockey Mom and played basketball in school! SCORE! She's pro-life! And she respects women! SCORE! She fights corruption! SCORE! She's high-energy! SCORE! She's tough! SCORE! She's got 5 kids! SCORE! Her son is going to Iraq in the Armed Forces! SCORE! She's married to a Blue-collar professional! SCORE! She's smart! SCORE! She's young! SCORE!

And she's a Hotty to boot! SCORE! The Left is going to go nuts! SCORE!
