Why is the media so compliant in accepting THEIR role in promoting these blatant "youthful" MTV-age voting photo-ops?

I know.

Redundant question.

But it needs to be asked anyway.

[Always Right]

But he looks so metrosexual as he throws that football.....

[billhilly]

Because they want to elect Kerry.

OK, you asked.

[Blood of Tyrants]

The accept whatever he says and does without question, even if he refutes himself or reverses his own stance in the same speech.

[boxerblues]

They do this so that no one will question whether he is medically fit to serve seeing how he had prostrate cancer just before announcing he was running for President

[sarasota]

The media is working to keep the dead horse propped up by any means possible. And it's a Kennedy thing.

[Pondman88]

If you ask me, seeing botox boy kite surfing off Nantucket makes him look like an elitist snob totally out of touch with the common folk....which, of course, he is.

[OpusatFR]

The legs are a dead giveaway. My 80 year old uncle-by-marriage, Marine, Korean War Vet and Vietnam Vet still walks five miles a day and has legs I envy.

Kerry has the legs of a desk jockey.

He's also voting for President Bush.

[Juan Medén]

It's a no brainer: how else do you make a cadaver appear alive?

[revtown]

From stories of his snow boarding earlier this year, it seems like he was a novice. Falling down 6 times or more and then blaming the SS.

[FITZ]

I'm sure it was the media's idea in the first place.

[Lijahsbubbe]

Grandpa does not look spry or athletic here! Note the false teeth look.

[theDentist]

Because they can't get any film of him taking Geritol, or having his Botox injections... I'd laugh like hell, though, if he fell off a skateboard and broke a hip.

[Conspiracy Guy]

[Conspiracy Guy]

[OldFriend]

They are trying to prove he's healthy.

[Psalm 73]

Hey, are you questioning Kerry's INTEGRITY??
Right here on FreeRepublic? - you should be ashamed of yourself.

[kidd]

Mark Steyn had a great article in the paper yesterday (Manchester Journal-Enquirer). I couldn't find it on line.

He talked about Kerry's recent claims (made in South Dakota) about how he enjoys hunting for deer with his 12 gage, crawling along the ground.

Steyn notes that those who actually hunt deer quietly snicker at this. He explains that deer is usually hunted while camouflaged but standing up, or from a tree stand.

He then wonders why Kerry, who looks like an old tree anyway, would rather hunt horizontally and not use his natural camouflage to his advantage.

[MarkeyD]

Snowboarding and windsurfing aren't easy, so he has surely done them before.

[expatpat]

He got lessons in snowboarding and wind surfing while he was playing hookey from the Senate, during Intelligence Committee meetings, for example.

[TommyDale]

When the campaign is over, Kerry will begin his endorsement of Viagra.
