Soccer Mom: Unplugged

Brucy Braley, Dem contender for a coveted house seat in Iowa's first district has cancelled a campaign event with John Kerry in response to Kerry's being, well, a dumba$$.

Michelle Malkin has posted some great letters from outraged military folks and their families.  This is an excerpt from the funniest one:

"You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you, you can do well."

If you don’t, you may get lost in Vietnam and think you're in Cambodia during Christmas on a super-secret CIA-evil-Republician mission.

ROTFLMBO!  I'm no political weather vane by any stretch of the imagination but I think this story has legs.  It could impact the election if it gets enough play.  I only say this because my husband, a fairly apolitical person, nearly came unglued when he saw the soundbite tonight over dinner.  I can't remember the last time I saw that vein bulge next to his left eye...  He's really mad.  In his own words, "the last thing I expect is, after the effers send us to war, for them to tell us we were stupid for going!  These people [Kerry and co.] don't deserve to be protected. And this guy wanted to be our commander in chief?  He's not worthy of the sacrifices that our youth are making for this country." 

Gotta go calm the spouse -he's still muttering about this from the kitchen ("...he's a traitorous bastard...")  Yep.  I'd say the fallout from this revelation into the liberal mind could drive patriotic conservatives to the polls.
