Little Red Corvette (Kerry's mid-life crisis) - Hugh Hewitt

Weekly Standard ^ | 5/6/04 | Hugh Hewitt

Hugh may have missed the Gore-esque imagination & creativity or even Bush-pilot-envy displayed during Hanoi John's elaboration of flying a jet fighter over Israel and Egypt.

this is funny

[nuconvert]

I missed the "electric-lemon Lycra shorts".
I think 'that's a good thing'.

what a joke

[Steven W.]

first you've taken something out of context - Bush was told to jump onto the Segway because, its builders insist, one should be able to do - only problem, it WASN'T ON at the time he attempted it.

second you haven't read the article - it has to do with Kerry's mid-life crisis. The point is he's behaving as if he has no core and thus trying to create an image of himself that isn't real and he's not up to the task of.

[GaltMeister]

The electric-lemon Lycra look probably won't play well outside the metrosexual caucus, and it can't be particularly inspiring to the troops living in holes outside of Falluja. Presidents can golf, and they can run, but they can't get dandied up and dart around on bikes in tights and fluorescent helmets.

LOL! This is spot on. The President of the United States, a Senator, or even a candidate should never venture out in public in thights.Every time I see JF'nK on his bicycle I can't help but think about Pee-Wee Herman.

[nuconvert]

And the point of that outfit is what?

[GaltMeister]

Ooops - should be tights. If Hildebeast were wearing them, they would be THIGHTS.

[LADY J]

Kerry is like a cardboard figure in an empty suit.

He has no real accomplishments and he's playing catch-up now and trying to invent some.

[dpwiener]

I hadn't really noticed before, but Kerry's bicycle has training wheels on it! Whuddsupwidat?

[January24th]

Ping! LOL!!

[theDentist]

Maybe we can get Bruce Dern to play him in the Movie of the Week!

[LADY J]

"In citing other examples of gravitationally-challenged politicians, you left out George W. falling off the Segway. Ineptitude knows no political affiliation."

And you left out an important fact. There was a malfunction of the Segway that caused this to happen and they were recalled.

[Dante3]

Kerry's bike does have training wheels! I hadn't noticed until you mentioned it. Is this the same bike he fell from?

[ModelBreaker]

Are those training wheels on JK's bike? Or some $879 yuppie, Sharper Image add-on to enhance gravitational calibration?

[avg_freeper]

" Kerry's bicycle has training wheels on it! "

They were "photoshopped" in during an earlier thread.
