States: "Mr Kerry, speaking to a group of California university students on Monday, 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."

He added: "If you don't you get stuck in Iraq.""

This is NOT what he said, listen to the audio one more time. If you're going to quote, use a direct quote, wanker.

Quote: "Education, if you make the most of it and study hard and do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well." He added:" If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq.""

The problem was that the BBC substituted two "and"s for two commas?

We go to war with what a leading Democrat said, NOT what he wished he had said and NOT what he wanted to say.

Al Jazeera prints only his actual words to rally those who are intent on killing our troops.

Kerry and the Dems have been trash-talking the troops, the CIC and the war effort, for 4 years now.

Just as they have done for the last 40 years, in any conflict.

They are embarrassed by Patriotism and the Flag.

They are the un-American party, and want to remake this country in Europe, and they want the UN to make foreign policy decisions for us.

This is who they are, Kerry was very clear in his efforts to pump up his voters, it is sickening.

I heard Kerry say he meantto say:" if you don't, you'll get US stuck in Iraq". He really must think America is stupid. He is a joke.

Whatever! Even if he ment to say that, he didn't and he should apologize! His coming out and screaming he won't apologize for that comment shows just who he is!
