The Drudge Retort reports that Matt Drudge has lost a long-time advertiser in the wake of last week’s groundless report alleging that U.S. Senator John Kerry had an extramarital affair with a 27-year-old woman. AT&T Wireless has pulled all advertising from the Drudge Report in response to a complaint about its sponsorship of the site.
Meanwhile, the San Francisco Chronicle reports this story on a doctored image of Senator Kerry, a photo which places him attending a 1971 anti-war rally, appearing alongside actress Jane Fonda.
Needless to say, the photo of Kerry has been doctored.
The right would appear to be willing to go to any ends, it would seem, to see to it that George W. Bush is elected to a second term as President.

Suicide
Razors pain you; Rivers are damp; Acids stain you; And drugs cause cramp. Guns aren’t lawful; Nooses give; Gas smells awful; You might as well live. — writer and well-known wit Dorothy Parker.

Lie-berals: At It Again With Budget 2004
Although David Schreck is reticent about saying so, VanRamblings has no problem stating that the Gordon Campbell Liberals are liars (and ne’er-do-wells) who have mislead the public from the time the last election was called in April 2001, through to the present day. How the Liberals continue to get away with their almost constant stream of Orwellian Newspeak — or should that be “rhetorical transformations” — is beyond the ken of the administrator of VanRamblings to understand.
The estimable Mr. Schreck takes the Liberals to task in a series of items published on his Strategic Thoughts blog, on the subjects of budget “trickery” and welfare cuts. There’s also reference made on the site to a Mustel Group poll due out soon, which ought to gauge just how unpopular the Liberals have become going into the final year of their mandate.
