Democrats hopping mad over 'bunny suit'
Washington Times ^ | 7/28/04 | Charles Hurt and Jennifer Harper

Posted on 07/27/2004 9:47:41 PM PDT by kattracks

The campaign of Sen. John Kerry yesterday accused NASA of leaking a widely circulated photo that shows the candidate wrapped from top to bottom in a baby blue "bunny suit," implying that it was a "dirty trick."
    One campaign official told The Washington Times last night: "All I can say is it was not an authorized release."
    But the National Aeronautics and Space Administration told Fox News that the Kerry team saw the photos before publication and passed on their release.
    A NASA spokesman told the top-rated cable network that the images were given to the Kerry campaign to review before several were posted on the Kennedy Space Center Web site.
    In no way were photographs "leaked," the spokesman said.
    But campaign manager Mary Beth Cahill said in an interview with Fox, "This was a leaked photo."
    She said the campaign never was told that the photographs, which are drawing ridicule and comparison with the Michael Dukakis "tank" photo on the Internet and talk radio, would be taken during a campaign stop at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

As long as it was Easter time, I'm sure you're in the clear.

Leaked shmeaked, any photo or Kerry is fair game. He's the one who decided to but the thing on and let himself be photographed.

It's the "John Kerry Jumps the Shark Collection" - courtesy of NASA!! The group photo is priceless - put that up next to a pic from that Woody Allen movie...the scene where he's a spermatozoa...

She said the campaign never was told that the photographs... would be taken during a campaign stop at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

The Senator had no idea that photographs would be taken.

I simply cannot believe that Kerry was stupid enough to put on that pajama looking outfit right before an election. Political Science 101 classes have pounded that Dukakis image into poli-sci majors for years. Now this.

The picture is bad enough, but it signifies a candidate so out of touch with reality, that he would submit himself to his humiliating costly shot.

Nice going Michael, ah, er, John.

Ah, yes, of COURSE Kerry thought there would be no pictures, that's why he was smiling from ear to ear during his entire NASA tour.

All this "leak" talk is goin to cheapen the stigma attached to leaks. That will be the time to really leak big time.

LOL! The bunny who cried, "Wolf!"

In no way were photographs "leaked," the spokesman said. But campaign manager Mary Beth Cahill said in an interview with Fox, "This was a leaked photo."

"NASA and Fox news are conspiring with the "Republican Attack Machine", working in conjunction with the "Vast Right Wing Conspiracy", with orders directly from Bush's handlers at Halliburton, based on a directive from the Saudi consulate, to spread this doctored photo taken unknowingly without Kerry's approval", added DNC spokesman Michael Moore.

That one picture looks like some new-age rebirthing process complete with a plastic umbilical cord. Maybe someone is trying to tell us something.

It would make a good ad for Planned Parenthood. Maybe registered can get on it. All your umbilical cords, I mean stem cells, belong to us.

Bush named a federal building after Robert Kennedy. Ted
paid Bush back with hate and venom, and blocked judicial
nominations, let alone puked up blather.

That amazes me how Bush went out of his way to be nice to him, inviting him to the White House for dinner and a movie I believe.

Did the President really believe Teddy would be nice in return?
