| CLAREMONT, Calif. — Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry asked President Bush on Thursday to name Sen. Bob Graham of Florida as a special envoy to Haiti to help find a political solution to the violence there. Thanks, Kerry, for letting us know, just how you will handle "problems" around the world. Our military is succeeding because of the training and practice that is so integrated into their beings. This practice, this training, of sending Graham tells us must of how you will react, as the leader of the world. (((Sheezzzzz,,,,, let me take out another bank loan to donate to Bush so this guy doesn’t get a chance to do such dumb stuff. I hope the money wins this election.... It seems our only chance!)) Graham, who plans to endorse Kerry for president in the next week, has been critical of the Bush administration’s handling of the crisis in Haiti, where opposition forces are threatening to overtake the capital and oust President Jean-Bertrand Aristide (search). "He knows the situation in Haiti extremely well and knows the cost that widespread violence will cause not only in Haiti, but on our shores," Kerry said of his Senate colleague, who abandoned his own Democratic presidential bid last October and has since expressed interest in the No. 2 spot on the ticket. Graham, 67, called this week for a police force — either U.S. or multinational — to restore order in the Caribbean country. His spokesman, Paul Anderson, said the senator would be willing to serve as an envoy if Bush asks him |

| #1 Bob Graham's diary: 2/27/04 - 7:15-35 am - Woke up, urinated, showered and brushed and flossed teeth. 7:35-55 am - Ate breakfast (bran flakes, OJ and english muffin) 7:55-8 am - Moved bowels (darn that bran works fast!) 8-8:10 am - President Bush called (at my good friend John Kerry's request) and asked if I would serve as his special envoy to Haiti. Despite the fact that I previously suggested that he be impeached, I accepted his offer because I think it's the right thing to do. He suggested that I meet with an NSC staffer and the Central and Latin American rep. from State Monday at 7:30 am. I agree to do so, even though Monday is Sausage and Egg McMuffin day. Perhaps I will eat two on Tuesday. 8:10-15 am - Another BM. Is it nerves over going to Haiti or the bran? 8:15-30 am - Spoke to my good friend John Kerry to tell him of President Bush's call. I had to cut the call short during his congratulations for another BM. What do they put in those bran flakes anyway? 8:30-9:00 - On the bowl. Good thing I brought my copy of Vanity Fair in with me. Graydon Carter sure is angry at President Bush. 9-9:45 am - Spoke to staffers to let them know about my appointment. Asked Mary to work with State on travel and security arrangements. 9:45-10 am - Watched my good friend John Kerry on CNN. That Paula Zahn is a tough interviewer, but my good friend John Kerry handled her well. 10-10:10 am - Another G** D*** BM! Took some Pepto Bismol. The shade of pink is sickening, but somehow mesmerizing. I wonder what color it is in my stomach. 10:10-11 am - Nap time. More later. (To be continued) |
