Kerry's Bracelet

Posted on 08/26/2004 7:02:32 PM PDT by Joann37

I saw Kerry on TV today and he had some sort of a bracelet on, on the same wrist as his watch. Is that one of those abstinence bracelets, or maybe it's a hospital bracelet? Maybe a Madonna Kabalah (sp)? bracelet? Just wondering.

Never noticed it, though I hear Theresa keeps him on a much shorter leash than Hillary did with Slick Willy.

Was it the yellow one? If so, it's from the Lance Armstrong Foundation for fighting cancer.

Not political - I know conservatives who wear them. But I do think Kerry wears his for political reasons.

It's a bracelet that remembers the sacrifices of dead horses.

You can get them at livestrong.org - proceeds go towards cancer research through the Lance Armstrong Foundation. It's a good cause, whatever his reaons for wearing it. Bush wears one, too, and I've seen a lot of Olympic athletes wearing them. My whole family has them.

Wow. They're unevenly yolked. That relationship must have more than it's share of problems.

I got this SWIFT BOAT VETERANS FOR TRUTH EXPOSE KERRY'S FRAUD sticker on my truck the other day. The next day on the way to work and back I got lots of honks and 'thumbs up'!

The sticker serves 2 purposes:
1 - Shows visible support for "Swift Boat Veterans For Truth" to passing motorists
2 - Gets the swiftvets.com website visible to the public, so they can and find out more about 'Hanoi John' Kerry

Made by fellow FReeper disabled vet who has a bone to pick with Kerry, like we all do!
Large (24" Wide 12" Tall) like mine
Small (12" Wide 6" Tall)
Profits go to SwiftVets.com

FReep mail for details.

It was a bracelet that McGreevey sent him just before the cat was let out of the bag. It was originally pink, but because he refuse to remove it for any reason, his sweat turned it a urine color.

I noticed a co-worker wearing one the other day and gave him some good natured grief, calling it a Kerry band. He had no idea that Kerry has been spotted wearing the band and being a die-hard Bush supporter, he flared his nostrils in my direction. I gave it up, and we had a good laugh.

His dad is currently a cancer suvivor and my dad has just learned in the last week that he is fighting for his life.

A vet of WWII and Korea, he finally told me something from his life in the military.

He said: "We had people in (WWII) that liked to brag about their Purple Hearts and how they got them. We called them BLOW HARDS!"

Pray for my Dad.

A great American.

LOL... abstinence bracelets

Can you imagine his chagrin on receiving that as a gift from Tarayza on their wedding night?

Nike/Lance Armstrong bracelets are the latest accessory. Plus: iTunes and Motorola Showing support for a cause has become on par with sporting the latest fashions; in some instances, the two worlds collide, such as the Harvey Milk School t-shirts Marc Jacobs designed for the first accredited gay high school. The latest example of “socially responsible fashion” is the “Live Strong” yellow rubber bracelet created by cancer surviving cyclist Lance Armstrong in conjunction with Nike. Proceeds from the $1 bracelets go to the Lance Armstrong Foundation which benefits young cancer victims. Young Hollywood and New York have reportedly been stocking up on the bracelets lately but like most “cool” items, they were produced in a limited run. And at last check on the website selling them, they were on back order, which will no doubt spur the demand even more. With the great success of these bracelets, look out for other brands to create products with a cause. Braclet

If someone told Kerry that wearing a pink tiara is what all the cool kids are doing these days, that is what you'd see him in tomorrow. He is such a poser.

"But I do think Kerry wears his for political reasons."

Kerry only answers nature's call when it serves his political agenda.

Were you able to notice if he still had jelly on his forehead? Jelly from where the electroshock terminals were? If so, I'd say that's a bracelet from Dr. Jerry's Mental Health & Tire Store located in Correctionville, Iowa (real city).

You're all SSOOOOOO dense.

It's a copper 'yard bracelet that one of the green beanie guys gave him just before Kerry dropped him off to meet up with his Mike Force.

This was, of course, in addition to the boonie hat he was given. I'll bet Kerry still has the guy's K-Bar. As a matter of fact, a few months ago, didn't Kerry buy a jock-strap.

Won't this show up soon kinda mildewed and soggy?

"Edwards has suddenly began sporting the same thing......."

OK, that settles it. Those are ID bracelets they got in the psych ward.
