KERRY GAFFE ON ITALY? [Michael Ledeen]
All Italy is abuzzing today about a Kerry gaffe aired last night on HBO in Italy. As reported in today's Corriere della Sera in Italy, Defense Minister Antonio Martino criticized John Kerry for an incredible remark that the conditions of the Iraqi Army were so bad that even the Italian Army could kick their a**es.
Martino remarked that Kerry, "instead of saying what he thinks, should think about what he says."
But that would be too much for the great statesman from Massachusetts, wouldn't it?
ROMA - Il ministro della Difesa, Antonio Martino, ha provato «grande amarezza e dispiacere» per le dichiarazioni di John Kerry, secondo il quale «le condizioni dell'esercito iracheno erano talmente patetiche che persino l'esercito italiano avrebbe potuto prenderli a calci nel sedere». Nell'apprendere le affermazioni del senatore, pronunciate in campagna elettorale e di cui ieri Kerry si è scusato in tv, Martino avrebbe detto: «Il senatore Kerry, invece di dire quello che pensa, dovrebbe pensare a quello che dice»
Italy still stands in the coalition, Kerry knew what he was saying & blasting our friends again
Cool, send Italy voter registration cards.
What a total moron. There goes the Italian-American vote, what little of it he had to begin with.
Correct.
Jeez, where have the Italians been? Kerry and Edwards have referred to them as window dressing and part of the coalition of the bribed and/or coerced. They've been insulting the Italians, as well as the rest of our allies, for months.
Uggggghhhhh.
Kerry is SO crass!
What a diplomat! He and Tahrayza make a great pair.
Kerry is such a dumb*ss!
*L* I love it when they slit their own throats
LOL....this is not going to play well in New Jersey!!!
Hugh Hewitt is pointing to that kind of comment as the reason for Kerry's impending loss in the election.
There the metrosexual gigolo again...bashing our allies.
Kerry will be fatal to the country, if elected.
Half of Americans are too braindead to know it.
Hey Kerry about those election chances, fuggedaboutit!!
Italian-Americans are the largest ethnic group in Massachusetts. He must be crazy. What a maroon!
Anyone have a quote from Ketchup Boi about the French army?
