[history]
March 16, 2004 -- WASHINGTON - The White House yesterday all but called John Kerry a liar, daring the Massachusetts Democrat to name the foreign leaders he claims want President Bush defeated. With Kerry again refusing to back up his claims, Team Bush turned up the heat to raise further doubts about Kerry's credibility.

I would love to see a President Bush-coward Kerry no holds barred debate. But only in a fair forum. Since Kerry is such a media darling, I'm not sure that's possible.

From Drudge:
(Boston)GLOBE REPORTER CLAIMS TAPE RECORDED KERRY 'MORE' LEADERS NOT 'FOREIGN' LEADERS; TRANSCRIPTION 'SCREW-UP'
A BOSTON GLOBE reporter at the center of a growing controversy over comments made by John Kerry last week in Florida now claims he "screwed-up" -- and John Kerry never bragged how "foreign leaders" privately backed his presidential bid!"I mistranscribed a key word," explains Patrick Healy, a political reporter for the BOSTON GLOBE who covered the event in a pool capacity.
"Listening to the audio recorder now, in the quiet of my house, I hear 'more leaders' and I am certain that 'more leaders' is what Senator Kerry said."
Too late. Kerrys already run with that football. When asked about the claim in a town hall meeting in Pennsylvania, Kerry still wouldnt specify names, but did mention allies that had been alienated. If he had said more instead of foreign originally, that would have been the perfect time to make the correction. He didnt do that but actually reinforced the fact that he had said foreign leaders.
Worst case of spin/damage control Ive seen yet. Kerry is starting to Dean-out.

"...or the only conclusion one can draw is that he is making it up to attack the president."Either that or he's having conversations with "people who aren't there."

We are going to more and more of this from Kerry in an effort to get attention from the media.
He is as shallow as they come.

The White House must define Kerry as a flip flopper and phoney elitist. Terrific.

Something stinks here. According to Boston Globe reporter Patrick Healy, he mistranscribed the word "more" to "foreign" and this is what has caused the problem for Kerry about the foreign leaders he has talked to. Ok..so why is Kerry not saying that? Why is Kerry just being defiant in saying that he will NOT tell WHO he has talked to especially if he hasn't talked to any foreign leaders and this is all a misunderstanding about a misquote. Can anyone explain this to me?

"Vice President Dick Cheney, speaking at a fund-raiser in Arizona, noted that at a campaign event Sunday in which a heckler challenged Kerry to produce names, the Democrat declined, saying, 'that's none of your business'."
He said more than that. He kept asking the heckler if he was a Republican and did he vote for George Bush in the last election. I wish I had been that heckler. I would have told Kerry that who I voted for in the last election was NONE OF HIS BUSINESS. I would have demanded that he produce the names of those so called supporters or shut the hell up about it.

Funny that this morning, the reporter who claimed Kerry made the statement about foreign leaders changed his tune and says that the tape now says only leaders---nothing about foreign.
To: wewillnotfail
"none of our business"? This comment is more telling than
the original comment about the foreign leaders' support.
This comment, made in an unguarded moment, was to a VOTER.
Did Jefferson, et al, waste their precious ink that we
end up with a Presidential candidate saying it's none of
our business? To me, it matters not what the foreign
leaders think of Kerry; to me, that is beside the point.
This man thinks of the VOTER as one of the great unwashed.
