Mr. Kerry not only dropped the word "us," but he also rephrased his opening sentence extensively and omitted a reference to President Bush. Mr. Kerry's aides said that the prepared text read: "Do you know where you end up if you don't study, if you aren't smart, if you're intellectually lazy? You end up getting us stuck in a war in Iraq. Just ask President Bush." What he said: "You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq." That's OK as far as it goes. But they left out the rest of the correction: A reference that wasn't 'incomplete' would have vitiated the central premise of the article, which was that Kerry had gotten into trouble "with a single word — or a single word left out of what was supposed to be a laugh line directed at the president ." The Times would have been left with a large blank space on Page A-24 or might have had to confront the possibility that Senator Kerry had badly misread the prepared joke in line with preexisting beliefs about the academic achievements of American military personnel.

THE JOURNAL OF STEFFANIE RIVERS: Who’s In Charge Here?
Then again you can't teach what you don't know. No matter how you slice it there's only so many pieces of the financial pie. And if everyday Americans are forced to spend more money on fuel, food, health and childcare - with the same amount of income that wasn't enough in the first place - soon there won't be any more money to go around. It's simple math. In case you haven't heard about the proposed tax rebate let me break it down for you: If it's approved by Congress, tax-paying Americans will get a rebate check from the federal government. Taxpayers who file individually will receive $600 while couples who file jointly will get $1,200. Retirees, who don't pay federal income taxes, but pay social security taxes, would get $300 for individuals or $600 for couples.
