#2 I'm old enough to remember every Democratic presidential candidate from JFK on (the real JFK, John Kennedy, not this Epsilon-Minus Submoron who's styling himself the "new" JFK), and I don't remember any who came across as more of a jerk than John Kerry. He's shifty, he's irresolute, he's pompous, he's boring, and he's also apparently a couple of pom-poms short of a full pep squad.

The idea of this guy being President is a little unsettling.

You know, I called a couple of times to overzealous speechwriters and said 'Look, thatâs not what Iâm saying.'

Uh-huh. Sure you did. Pull the other one.

Lying crapweasel.

#5 Maybe Kerry's speech writers should enroll in the 'Dr. Seuss School of Rhyme And Meter'. Like AlGore did during the 2000 Florida recount.
"I will count them on my hand.
I will count them in the can..."

Kerry wouldn't make any more sense, but it
would be much more entertaining.

#7 Isn't it strange - he always blames somebody. Just like the Arabs blaming somebody else for their crap.

#8 I'm trying to imagine the rudderless John effin Kerry as a war time CINC. Might be like General Gaston Billotte during the spring of 1940 as described in The Fall of France:

...morale at Billotte's headquarters in Douai was at rock bottom. On 15 May, Major Archdale, the British liason officer attached to Billotte, saw several officers in tears. For the next two days, to their growing frustration, neither the British nor the Belgians received a word from Billotte. Achdale, alarmed at the 'malignant inaction' he observed around Billotte, arranged for him to visit Gort's headquarters on 18 May. This meeting achieved nothing except to reveal to the British the depths of Billotte's despair and the fact that he had no plan of any kind. On the drive back to his headquarters, he told Archdale: 'I'm shattered and I can't do anything against these Panzers.'

'My God, how awful to be allied to so temperamental a race', commented (British General Henry) Pownall.

#9 Methinks Manbitesog is dumber than a bucket of hair, along with his liberal Democrat buddies (John Kerry included). by the way, I'm a Heartless Libertarian.
