It's perfectly OK to
smear John Kerry. It's perfectly OK to smear Iraq war veterans who support withdrawal from that country as
"phony soldiers."It's even OK to
hold a fundraiser for a chickenhawk who accuses a soldier who lost both her legs in Iraq of wanting to "cut and run" -- if you're John McCain.
Because in John McCain's world, only HE served honorably. Only HE is entitled to a free pass to the White House because he sacrificed for his country. Only HE is entitled to unquestioning devotion by the press -- and everyone else.
It's all about him.
There's a word for that. It's narcissism.
Haven't we had enough of that over the last eight years?
Labels: John McCain, narcissism

And the wheel keeps spinning.
Mr. Barnicle worked for Robert F. Kennedy and was a speechwriter for well-known liberals--he must know how far he's fallen. (Yeah, I looked him up.)
