I put Middle Earth Journal in hiatus in May of 2008 and moved to Newshoggers.
I temporarily reopened Middle Earth Journal when Newshoggers shut it's doors but I was invited to Participate at The Moderate Voice so Middle Earth Journal is once again in hiatus.

Did Viagra damage Bob Dole's Brain?

Senator Bob Dole will probably be remembered for being a war hero and for having run, what was without a doubt, the lamest presidential campaign in history. Well now his viagra clouded brain has drawn him into the Swift Boat Liars world. So now the vet who said this,
In a 1988 campaign-trail autobiography, here's how Dole described the incident that earned him his first Purple Heart: "As we approached the enemy, there was a brief exchange of gunfire. I took a grenade in hand, pulled the pin, and tossed it in the direction of the farmhouse. It wasn't a very good pitch (remember, I was used to catching passes, not throwing them). In the darkness, the grenade must have struck a tree and bounced off. It exploded nearby, sending a sliver of metal into my leg--the sort of injury the Army patched up with Mercurochrome and a Purple Heart."
has the nerve to say Kerry didn't deserve his purple hearts because his wounds were "superficial". Kerry still carries shrapnel from those "superficial" wounds. With the sell out and defection of John McCain, another victim of the Rove slime machine, I can only assume there are no "decent" Republican politicians.

Update
Duckman GR over at LeftCoaster has some thoughts on Dole and other Repug Hatchet Men.
