John Pilger: Partner in Terrorism

In an outrageous piece of terrorist propaganda appearing on the cover of today's New Statesman, John Pilger puts the blame for the 7/7 London attacks not on the terrorists, but rather on Tony Blair:

Kerry's Lennon Gambit

NY Post: "Sen. John Kerry is distributing fliers in New York with a 30-year-old photo of him and Beatle John Lennon to woo anti-war presidential voters as he competes with rival Howard Dean in blasting President Bush on Iraq." Here's the photo:

Kerry & Herman

In the end, this battle appears to be a complete wash for Kerry. But in what may portend the future strategy of the Kerry campaign, high level talks were reportedly taking place between Kerry's team and Adobe, the makers of PhotoShop.
