This guy's pretty good. I linked to him last night, via Instapundit, so thought I'd see what he was saying this morning. His post today lists 10 horrendous answers from Kerry last night. Glad to see that the Astute Blogger is analyzing substance, and I'm feeling kind of pathetic for not doing that myself. But we agree, Bush won hands-down on the issues.

I had heard that Tommy Franks said that the number of troops in Afghanistan went up after the Iraq war started so Kerry's assertion that Iraq was a diversion from Afghanistan and bin Laden is false.
Also, on CNN last night he said:
"...the allegation is that we had, I think, Osama bin Laden surrounded with a thousand of his people at the place called Tora Bora, that was one of a great many dots on a piece of paper at that time.
The fact of the matter is within 72 hours of the time we were receiving reporting on where Osama bin Laden was in Tora Bora, I received similar reporting every place from Baluchistan, to a lake up to the northwest of Kandahar.
The fact of the matter is, that at the end of the day it would be the Afghans who would make -- who would make the choice, who would make the decision about where they go in their country. And so we don't know. I don't know whether Osama bin Laden was in Tora Bora at that time, but I am reasonably sure, as I think the previous commentator was, that Osama bin Laden is not in Afghanistan today, as the Senator said he was."

thanks for the mention.
i'll try every day to post something worth reading that you can't read anywhere else, and that hits hard and true - but not below the belt.
i like your blog, too.
