What was he thinking? Or was he thinking? Did John Kerry forget how that widely ridiculed photo opportunity in the Army tank deflated the presidential campaign of his mentor Michael Dukakis?
Apparently not. Sen. Kerry continues to face fallout from his widely ridiculed photo opportunity at Cape Canaveral.
He must have thought wearing a baby-blue anti-contamination suit would somehow make him appear tough and less elitist than usual. The New York Post, however, in the lead story "BOSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM," with the secondary headline "Spaceman Kerry's goofy photo flub," today noted he looked instead like the sperm Woody Allen played in "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex but Were Afraid to Ask."
"The GOP effort to pull a 'Dukakis' on Kerry is shifting into
high gear," the Associated Press reported today.
But Kerry seems eager to pull a Dukakis on himself.
Republican chairman Ed Gillespie said, "We just thought it was a great photo."
Look Who's 'Stupid'
Perhaps the senator had to decontaminate himself from the first night of the Democrat convention.
Over at the GOP war room, Minnesota's excellent new U.S. senator, Norm Coleman, noted the presence of a certain anti-American left-wing hatemonger at the Bush-bashing Beantown bash.
"We had Michael Moore in the presidential box, someone who said
Americans are stupid," Coleman pointed out. "Michael Moore sits with President Jimmy Carter in his box. Is that the foreign policy coming out of this convention? Does that demonstrate the party's commitment to make tough decisions?"
Well, at least they've managed so far to hide Dukakis. And his junior-size helmet.
A Kerry-tubby.
Where is Dukakis, anyway? I mean, they are in Boston, and Kerry served in Dukakis's administration. They're showing a lot of gratitude to their former Presidential nominee, aren't they?
And speaking of former nominees, where's Mondale?
Sometimes who isn't there is more intriguing than who is.
Note to self: When running for president, never, NEVER allow self to be photographed while on my knees!
Our guy looks better in costumes. Deal with it.
... vs. Kerry-worm and Action Fightin' Tank Dukakis?
I love that one!

I don't mean to be disrespectful to the President of the United States, but he IS one gorgeous hunk!!!
LOL!
Any Seinfeld fans? I'm thinking of the early episode where Jerry dreams that his brain is playing chess against his, ahem, 'male member'...the visual was of a normal Jerry vs a 'helmeted' Jerry (Seinfeld with a round helmet on his head). Almost a dead ringer for Kerry...
Alas, I'm not computer savvy, so I have no way of posting any sort of picture...
Can one of you hot shot computer whizes produce the following :: ...
Make a picture of the President in his flight suit ... and juxtapose that next to a picture Kerry in his girley man suit. ... Add some appropriate text ... like for example ...
The Predisent of the United States .... and ... The Democratic Nominee ...
LOL >> I would love to get that to the Bush campaign ...
Someone ... and I would love to know how to do it too ...
That was absolutely the funniest thing ever! Nice work.
Don't get your hopes up. The Dukakis picture was effective because it showed how out of place Dukakis was in a military situation and by extension as Commander in Chief.
This picture communicates nothing but Kerrys dorkiness of which there are warehouses already full of such pictures.

One giant enema for Kerry, one great relief for mankind.
