Ben Shapiro is on fire with a blog entry about John F. Kerry's hypocrisy.

Shapiro quotes the Massachusetts liberal as blasting President Bush's self-deprecating humor:

"[KERRY PRESS RELEASE:] That's supposed to be funny?

If George Bush thinks his deceptive rationale for going to war is a laughing matter, then he's even more out of touch than we thought. Unfortunately for the President, this is not a joke.

585 American soldiers have been killed in Iraq in the last year, 3,354 have been wounded, and there's no end in sight. Bush Turned White House Credibility into a Joke George Bush sold us on going to war with Iraq based on the threat of weapons of mass destruction. But we still haven't found them, and now he thinks that's funny?

But Ben quickly reveals just what a fraud Kerry is:

"Well, Senator Kerry, if it's so tasteless and unfunny to joke about the failure to find WMD, why didn't you say that to Dennis Kucinich? In your Jan. 11, 2004 Iowa Black and Brown Forum Debate with the other Democratic candidates, Rep. Kucinich said this (from the Washington Post transcript):

KUCINICH: You know, first of all, I've been wondering why the president would, while we're still in Iraq, talk about gong to the moon and going to Mars. Maybe he's looking for the weapons of mass destruction still.

(LAUGHTER)

(APPLAUSE)


Here's video of the offensive incident. How did you react Senator Kerry? You certainly didn't tell Kucinich that missing WMD were no laughing matter. In fact, it looks to me as if you're laughing when Kucinich makes that joke. But how could you laugh about that? It's SOOOO offensive!

Ben's brief against Kerry is logically airtight.

The biggest mistake the Bush campaign has made to date is not putting Ben on the payroll.

And don't miss this Kevin McCollough column recommended by Ben: "Massachusetts Burning: 'Gay Marriage' Leads to Incest," which tackles the Massachusetts Supreme Court's opinion in Commonwealth v. Rahim (available here.) I think we've found our new Antonin Scalia.
