And, for once, so is Joseph Farah:
It seems White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card gave a speech to Republican delegates from Maine and Massachusetts at the convention in New York. His talk was threaded with references to President Bush's role as protector of the country. Then he said this:"It struck me as I was speaking to people in Bangor, Maine, that this president sees America as we think about a 10-year-old child ... I know as a parent I would sacrifice all for my children."
What?
Kerry called the remark "condescending." If anything he understated the case. It was condescending, patronizing and insulting. Unfortunately, I fear it's true. Listening to the first half of President Bush's acceptance speech at Madison Square Garden last week, I think he may very well view us as his children – helpless waifs who need a Daddy to take care of them.
