Edwards speaks out against Bush.

AJC: Democratic hopefuls score Bush.

I don't think Senator John Edwards has the experience yet to be the Democratic nominee, but I do like the guy.

“If you want somebody who has spent their life fighting for average Americans, if you want somebody who will dig in, take hold and never let go, if you want somebody who will take this fight to George Bush’s doorstep and then inside, I am your guy,” Edwards said.

To the enthusiastic cheers of his audience, Edwards challenged the president by saying, “I am proud of the children I represented. I am proud of the cases I won. And so, Mr. President, if you want to talk about the insider you fought for versus the kids and families that I fought for, here’s my message to you, Mr. President: Bring it on.”

Al Sharpton, who will never be the nominee, got a off some good ones also:

“He went to undergraduate school under preferences,” Sharpton said to laughter and then applause from the audience. “He went to graduate school under preferences. He’s the ultimate recipient of a set-aside program. The Supreme Court set aside a whole election to make him president of the United States.”

In the final minutes of his speech, Sharpton sought to confront criticism that his history of racial agitation and exploitation disqualifies him as serious presidential candidate. “Everybody in politics has baggage,” he said. “Just some folks have enough money; when they check into a hotel, they get others to carry their bags.”

The White House wants everybody to quit attacking the bumbling President Bush.

DNC Chairman Terence R. McAuliffe opened the session by describing an open letter from Republican National Committee Chairman Marc Racicot calling for a cessation of the attacks on Bush by the Democrats, saying their rhetoric was wholly negative.

“It’s negative all right,” McAuliffe said. “Under Bush, we have a negative stock market, negative family income and negative job growth. If I were in their shoes, I wouldn’t want to talk about it either.”

It is a good thing Ashcroft hasn't made criticism of the President illegal yet. However since Bush and Ashcroft seem to be remoldng America in the shape of communist Russia by outlawing civil liberties, you better listen to all the candidates while you can.

      

And they claim they claim it's not racist.

AJC: "Other" Georgia is split over flag.

"There ain't nobody but [racial epithet] and dumb folks that think that flag is racist," said Riley McMath, 83, of Americus, who has the old battle emblem flag on a post outside an office that he owns.

That pretty much sums up the flaggers argument. Everybody thank Governor "Moon Pie" Perdue for bringing this fight back up. The battle is going to get worse and more epithets are bound to be tossed around.
