Back in 1982 a friend asked me if I was interested in attending a comedy show. He told me about a number of famous persons who would be at a benefit for charity. I agreed and we went as a group.
The benefit was for John Kerry who was running for Lt. Governor. I did not know it was for Kerry at the time until after I got there. There were the usual suspects there performing Robin Williams, Chevy Chase, Peter,Paul, and Mary, as well as a number of others.
I really did not know it was a political fund raiser. I would not have gone if I did know it. Kerry has always gotten an incredibly positive press in this area due to his war protester activities. This fawning by the media has continued until the present and it has really been elevated during the last year or so. The press and Kerry conceal a lot of things. That is their pattern.
The bum kissers at the Boston Globe must have been schizophrenic when Dean was leading in the polls. That situation put those subversives in a true dilemma. Dean was saying the right things, but Kerry had a resume(a bogus one) which they felt would be used to sway undecideds. Ultimately, the media managed to keep Kerry shining while soiling Dean. As if that maniac Dean wasn't going to implode without the Globe and other media's veiled assistance.
John Kerry is one person who has simply been shielded from criticism all of his life until recently. Many in this area simply get all of their information concerning politicians from such outlets as the Globe. The national media is not so completely enamored to Kerry as he is accustomed to. This is something which apparantly has perplexed the ersatz war hero.
I guess what I am saying is that the Media has clout and they use it. The voters in this area have never been informed by journalists about Kerry's lack of credibility. The media calls him a war hero, and the voters believe it as it has never before been disputed publicly due to the liberal press's agenda.
