ADVICE

     During the high school and college days, there was no shortage of wordly advice coming from parents, older siblings, friends, relatives, teachers, professors, bartenders, Ex-GIs, and virtually anyone else with experience or opinions. One example that still stands out in my memory is “You will be judged by the company you keep”. For a young man, I am sure that applied to both male and female acquaintances.  That saying, long buried in my mind, has been resurrected by John Kerry. Aside from his obvious waffling, he might earn the benefit of the doubt  — except for the company he keeps.

     When I see him chumming with Ted Kennedy, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Howard Dean, Michael Moore, Barbara Boxer,Whoopie Goldberg and the remainder of the left wing elite, I don't have to look any further. George Bush may not be beyond criticism, but look at the alternative. John Kerry has made his bed, and will now have to sleep in it. And above all, the image of Kerry turning to the UN as the “great authority” and subverting US autonomy to that lily-livered outfit is more than I can stomach. Sorry John, don't look for help from me or my friends!  It all comes down to the company you keep. Good advice that has stood the test of time.
