Kerry melt-down following Gibson GMA interview

ABC Evening News

[A Citizen Reporter]

Peter Jennings just ran a piece on Kerry's Vietnam history. Included in the piece was a bit of video after this morning's interview with Charlie Gibson. Kerry (thinking he was off-camera) ripped out his earpiece, and said "I feel like they're doing the work of the Republican National Committee."

[A Citizen Reporter]

What? What time is it there? :^)

Methinks Hillary & Co. would have no trouble in arranging an accident.

I must disagree. They'll let GW have his four more, and Hillary will run against whoever we nominate in '08. Arranging accidents carries with it the possibility of being exposed and the consequences that go with that, as nominal as they may be for Democrats. Well, we don't have too long to wait to see.

No, I am actually being a pessimist. We'll be weaker when GW's eight years is over. She'll step in then. If I were an optimist, she'd never run.

"Kerrette's Syndrome?"

No doubt an entry into Freeper lexicon.

[TheLion]

Hannity on Fox covering this now!

[Stultis]

Excellent!

Swing voters aren't going to warm to Forbes Frenchy's thin skinned arrogance.

[Miss Marple]

Who is this guy Dalton? Under which president was he Navy secretary? What a clymer?

[TheLion]

Maybe HRC wants to make sure nothing stands in her way on the Democratic side in 2008.

[A Citizen Reporter]

MARGARET WARNER: John Dalton became Secretary of the Navy in July 1993.

"Who is this guy Dalton"


1993 Sec of Navy under Clinton...how he can defend Kerry on the medals is hard to take. These people have absolutely no shame!

[speekinout]

They'll let GW have his four more, and Hillary will run against whoever we nominate in '08.

I've heard this from loyal Dems. W might clear up the terrorist problem in 4 years. If he does, the Dem issues will be more promising. If he doesn't, we'll "throw the bums out".
I'm a pessimist. I think Kerry is the sacrificial goat so that hillary can run in '08.

[Stultis]

All that stuff about "I threw away ribbons, not medals" makes him sound flaky, even to average Joe. He gets that Clintonesque parsing his words thing going on and it sounds real bad.

Kerry doesn't know how to use the parse like The Rapist did. Clinton knew that you never voluntarily draw attention to the parse by explaining it, but instead follow up with diversionary tactics (and go "back to work for the American people).

Kerry, OTOH, can't restrain himself from lecturing questioners about why statement A and statement B are really contradictory at all.

[jmstein7]

BUMP!

[Stultis]

"are really contradictory" should be "are'nt really contradictory "

[Mich0127]

HAA HAA

Kerry-if you can't take the heat, get the heck out of the kitchen-you will not be missed

[cmsgop]

That was Amazing! I can't believe what I saw and on ABC no less! Kerry what a Doofus...

[Twinkie]

I wonder whether he is possibly doing that
intentionally in order to make points with the
public. Like the first time, he wanted to say
how crooked these "guys" are and couldn't outright.
This time, if the people think the media is against
him sentiment will turn to him? Could that be it.
If so, can we expect more "accidents" with microphones?

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

All I can figure is that they sense a chance to get Hildabeast in there and are now working to torpedo JFK.

Well it surely isn't for Hitlery in 2004, it's for 2008. She can't win against an incumbent JF'nK nor an incumbent Goerge W. Bush. 2008 is scheduled to be the year of the succubus.

Kerrette's Syndrome

"No doubt an entry into Freeper lexicon."

No doubt, and deservedly so. :-)

[KillTime]

I'll catch the left coast feed and post the video to this thread.

Were you able to get a vid cap of Kerry's off-mic blurb?

[Alberta's Child]

I think Mr. Kerry has lost all his marbles.

For the life of me, I can't understand how a doofus like that has run successfully so many times in the past.
