Spanish Foreign Minister Miguel Angel Moratinos also urged restraint.

“We will try (to work things out so) that we don’t initiate spillover on the region” […] he told reporters.

George Bush is a master at disguising the punch.

In 2000, he fooled Al Gore into underestimating his talent as a politician, causing Mr Gore to overreach.

This time, he has forced John Kerry to have the wrong conversation with the voters.

“Forced”, eh? Back to the “evil genius” mode I see. I’m sure that an RNC commando squad broke in to Senator Kerry’s house, kidnapped the hamster an left a note saying “talk about Vietnam or the hamster gets it!”.
