A Liberal's Thought Process

You'll love this one and want to share it over coffee: The Federal Election Commission dismissed a complaint from one Jennifer Messer during the 2004 presidential campaign because, it found, the complaint was groundless. Here's the deal: Ms. Messer was listening to her local Indianapolis radio station, WFBQ, and heard a commercial by World Class Gun Shows. She heard the word "Kerry" and, in her FEC complaint, alleged the commercial had no disclaimer but referred to the Democratic presidential nominee, John Kerry. KFBQ and owner Clear Channel Communications responded that what Mrs. Messer heard was a reference to the possession of a concealed weapon by licensed individuals...which is described as "concealed carry." Ms. Messer learned that "Carry" is not the same as "Kerry." Common sense should have told her that. (And who would want to tote around a "Concealed Kerry" anyway?)
