BOARDMAN, Ohio (AP) - Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry said he bagged a goose on his swing-state hunting trip Thursday, but his real target was the voters who may harbor doubts about him.

Kerry returned after a two-hour hunting trip wearing a camouflage jacket and carrying a 12-gauge shotgun, but someone else carried the bird he said he shot.

"I'm too lazy," Kerry joked. "I'm still giddy over the Red Sox. It was hard to focus."

If it were clinton I wonder if he would have claimed "I goosed a bag"?

[Integrityrocks]

"Kerry bought the nonresident license and a special wetlands habitat stamp, which lets him hunt waterfowl."

I don't get it. The environmentalist make us pay billions to protect wetlands so the "waterfowl" will have some place to gather so we can shoot them?

Only in America.

"4 ducks in 4 hours is kinda unusual"

Would anyone be surprised to discover Kerry faked it?

Did this "avid hunter" crawl around in the dirt on his belly as he explained earlier in the campaign?

"So, let me get this straight - this blister thingie is what you common folk sometimes get when you do...what? Oh yeah, manual labor."

Gee, bagged a Canadian Goose!

Right the Canada goose is usually sitting on the ground waiting. They're so tame.
And it took him how many hours to bag one?
Oh!
And he's "giddy" and "lazy"? Well he sure improved his presidential image with the people there.
Bull's eye John sKerry!

If he's giddy hes shouldn't be handling a firearm. He could shoot a hole in the bottom of the boat or worse.

That looks like a Canadian Goose to me. On Long Island they breed like rats. You can find them near any body of water. You wouldn't have to shoot them either.

Just bring a bag of bread crumbs. They'll walk right up to you. I suppose if one wanted to, you could just grab it and wring it's neck.

You're right I have about 135 in my backyard right now.
All they do is eat and crap.

I'm still waiting to hear what the PETA people have to say about this. Not holding my breath -- still waiting for the NAG HAGS to come to the defense of all of the women Clinton groped (and worse)!

[katnip]

Haha! Great first post.

[Da Mav]

lol!

[Cooltouch]

From comments on Rush's show, nobody in the media actually saw any of those clowns shoot their birds. Now why doesn't that surprise me?

[Mike Darancette]

Four geese in 2 hours, with reporters near. No shots heard. Musta talked the unfortunate caged critters to death.

[MKM1960]

I almost expected him to skip back to the house after that. LOL

[ShandaLear]

LMAO!

Bagged a Canadian Goose? Big deal. Around here, the stupid birds will hardly get out of your way when you're walking. I could bag one with a piece of Wonder Bread and a kettle of boiling water.

[savedbygrace]

Who will the PETA people vote for now?

[newgeezer]

Sadly, you're right. The only ones left to be convinced at this point are the utterly-clueless undecideds, the likes of whom could make the "decision" to vote for the candidate named on the last yard sign they see before entering the polling place door.

Deep thinkers, these undecideds...

[newgeezer]

LOL!

Ping.
