The New Soldier, by John Kerry

Kerry has a recurring theme - books he doesn't want you to read. "Unfit for Command" should be retracted and an apology issued in its place, he demands. "The New Soldier," that he wrote, cannot be reprinted.

Thankfully, we have electronic media. Here it is in full text.

Get your copy whilst it's hot!! I imagine the Kerry Campaign is going to blow a gasket soon.

Wise words: Abraham Lincoln once asked an audience how many legs a dog has if you count the tail as a leg. When they answered "five," Lincoln told them that the answer was four. The fact that you called the tail a leg did not make it a leg.

Aisling: (Irish: aislinn; pronounced ASH-ling): A vision poem.

In an aisling, the island of Ireland appears to the poet in a vision in the form of a woman, sometimes young and beautiful, sometimes old and haggard. This female figure is generally referred to in the poems as An Spéirbhean (the sky-woman).
