HERE IS THE KERRY JOKE ABOUT SHOOTING QUAYLE
SLATE DOT MSN DOT COM ^ | 1-25-04 | dfu

Posted on 01/25/2004 7:53:41 PM PST by doug from upland

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, a man who wants to be president really did tell a joke about the potential shooting of a sitting vice president. Drudge talked about it on his show tonight. This is just amazing. The Republicans are the ones who are mean spirited????

Excerpt from slate.msn.com ---

Quote: "Somebody told me the other day that the Secret Service has orders that if George Bush is shot, they're to shoot Quayle. … There isn't any press here, is there?" (Associated Press, Nov. 16, 1988).

Charge: Kerry delivered this joke at a business breakfast shortly after the election of President George H.W. Bush and Vice President Dan Quayle. The co-chairman of the Bush-Quayle campaign in Massachusetts called it "an extraordinarily reckless comment" that was "very clearly in bad taste."

If I posted something about wanting to shoot a
government official, I would be visited by the
secret service.

If you read the article, Kerry didn't post it. He said it at a business breakfast.

They are asking for $1,000, which ain't the same as going. (0) bids.

You obviously spent all of your time there until recently. In fact, you didn't sign up until tomorrow.

Liberal covens" aw...I think you got the wrong opinion of us. If we come across as mean, it's becasue we hear to much of ur crap. I mean, i saw earlier on here tonight about you defending rapists in the military. Lemme guess, ur probaly homphobic 2, that no one should served in the military but men right? Right, of course you do. Think outside the box man.



p.s. Bush sucks
