Good Morning America - ABC News

Can't wait to hear Limbaugh on this....

Me neither!

And he was fighting Charlie when Charlie was trying to softball him.

"Charlie was waiting for me...I could smell him. But I, JOHN KERRY, saw that ambush, and sprayed that trap with all the words I could muster, until the segment was over...and a commercial came to medevac me out."

[Toespi]

Kerry started flip-flopping the moment he returned to the US after his Viet Nam service, because he then realized a Viet Nam war hero was dirt to his elitist friends, it just wasn't popular enough for debate boy.

This is totally A Clinton, a bad Clinton, this guy is toast. He will not make it to the convention he will cede to someone else, any guess who?

You poor bastard. Now you're watching BOTH "the Today Show" and "GMA"?

[Molly Pitcher]

:-) Limbaugh's at his best in these election years, IMO.

[Tijeras_Slim]

His problem is he believes his own lies.

Danton said of Robspierre "He will go far, he believes everything he says." 18 months later Robspierre went to the guilliotine.

the kerry kampaign roars along

[StriperSniper]

don't believe our lying eyes and ears.

I missed the '71 clip, but saw most of the rest, and that was the only message E'ffin had.

Pathetic!

[Tijeras_Slim]

Clinton was the same way. He told his lies so vividly, even he believed them.

And the libs ate it up because he was such a "fun" liar. They will turn on Kerry because he lies down to them.

[Maigrey]

Many thanks for it. I plan on annoying people with his flip-flopping today.

[SquirrelKing]

Whew.

LOL. If I keep this up I might have to go on a constant Nexium IV drip! But really, it's just a one-day aberration given that GMA had the scoop. I did quickly flip to The Today Show. They were reduced to running laudatory coverage about fallen hero Pat Tillman. That must have stuck in Katie's craw!

"Charlie was waiting for me...I could smell him. But I, JOHN KERRY, saw that ambush, and sprayed that trap with all the words I could muster, until the segment was over...and a commercial came to medevac me out."

I guess he could always say that and start by saying, "GMA reminds me of my time in Vietnam..."

FNC had Joe Lieberman on discussing this. What fun to watch Ole Joe stutter and admit he's having difficulty following the story.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Boy is Te-RAY-zuh gonna be ticked when she sees HER jeep in the ditch! LOL!

What fun to watch Ole Joe stutter and admit he's having difficulty following the story.

I caught that too and found it very revealing. Lieberman was effectively saying that he was having trouble keeping up with all Kerry's lies!

[mystery-ak]

I don't have a clue what he is talking about...the ribbon signifies the medal....they are the same......your are given two ribbons(Bronze Star)..one tiny one so you can wear in civilian clothes, the next ribbon you wear on your class A's, the medal itself you wear on more formal uniforms like dress blues......they don't give you three, so you have an extra one to throw over a fence!......what a POS.

[new cruelty]

Bump

[governsleastgovernsbest]

I find myself wondering: if you're one of Kerry's senior aides, perhaps his communications director, what do you say to Kerry after his GMA appearance?

Do you lie and say: "great job, boss! You really have squelched this scurrilous smear. That should surely put an end to the controversy!"

Or do you dare to tell the truth?: "you came across as a Clinton-like weasel, but without the charm. We better do something else fast or you're toast!"
