So shoot me. I missed the biggest JK story of the week.
We'll follow up with video if we can catch him tomorrow at the speech, but in case you haven't heard, Setti Warren, Senator Kerry's Deputy Director in MA, is being deployed to Iraq. And guess what? He's a real soldier (Navy, actually, like his boss), not a phony one! Yes, by God. An honest to goodness troop, who happens to be a Democrat, working for a Democratic Senator who, believe it or not, is a veteran himself! Who'd a thunk it?
Peter Gelzinis of The Boston Herald wrote a great column on Setti and his upcoming deployment, including reaction from JK.
Godspeed Setti. Come home safe and soon. The gang at KV sends our thoughts and prayers your way.
Speaking of bosses, Springsteen is releasing his new CD "Magic" on Tuesday, and I already have a favorite song. "Last to Die" is rockin and poignant and some of the words are vaguely familiar. My recommendation is buy. I've only heard the one tune, but if it's any indication, it's classic Springsteen.
I guess I should say something about the Senator. OK, I'm going to see him tomorrow at Faneuil Hall! Hmmm... I guess that was actually about me. But there's plenty of JK in this week's newsreel, so enjoy.
Thanks again to Danny and Shotgun Wedding for the tune. You guys rock.
