 The news from an alternative universe 
  
 By Kathleen Parker 
 The Orlando Sentinel 
  
 NEW YORK - President-elect John F. Kerry's rise to the nation's highest 
 office came as little surprise after almost four years of remonstrations 
 against President George W. Bush for his bizarre attack on the 
 defenseless people of Afghanistan. 
  
 Kerry, a decorated Vietnam veteran, was the right man for a nation 
 outraged by the Bush administration's pre-emptive war, which, it now 
 seems clear, was based on highly speculative intelligence that Saudi 
 Arabian-born terrorist Osama bin Laden was planning an attack on the 
 United States.
