John Kerry laps up the
applause of the adulatory crowd at the Democratic Convention
in Boston. He shamelessly milks his military hero status, announcing
he's "reporting for duty". To the squeamish British
palate, this speech would have been better received in the vomitarium.
The crowd seem intent on raising him to god-like status, but
this god seems to want to be all things to all people. This reminded
me of multi-limbed Hindu deities.
