Check FOX and Friends NOW for story on Kerry!
"Remember, John Kerry has made truth and honesty a campaign issue."
Cubicle bound . . . please elaborate! Much appreciated!
It must be some kind of a big deal for him to be on TV this early in the day.
Anything yet?
Is this the one where members of the UN Sec Council deny having met with him before he voted on the Iraq war resolution in Oct. 2002?
Guy on talking about the movie Arrested Development! I just turned it on.
Dang ....i missed it
Is it over already?
Yes, some actor guy about a TV show. No news yet.
DIdn't this reporter just say that the Kerry campaign admitted that Kerry doesn't always tell the truth?
What's up DMW is it over?
So...what happened?
??? Did I miss it?
The guy from Arrested Development is on.
"U.N. ambassadors from several nations are disputing assertions by Democratic presidential candidate Sen. John Kerry that he met for hours with all members of the U.N. Security Council just a week before voting in October 2002 to authorize the use of force in Iraq.
An investigation by The Washington Times reveals that while the candidate did talk for an unspecified period to at least a few members of the panel, no such meeting, as described by Mr. Kerry on a number of occasions over the past year, ever occurred. "
Guess which story will get more play?
Don't ask me - I was asking as well. Just like you.

He also said, "Remember when John Kerry had his Botoxed face on the cover of Rolling Stone Magazine"? He said that honesty would be his main focus as president. I cracked up at the botox line!!
I was only listening with one ear, but, yep, he did say that. He really, really, ripped into Kerry. I thought for a while he was a GOP spokesman, not a reporter!
Mowbray said that.
Do you think this is the same topic the reporter is on for?
you missed it.
this has been a fascinating thread
The reporter was just sharing about what he wrote in the article that came out today on John Kerry who claims to have met with fifteen members of the UN Security Council to talk with them about the war on Iraq before it happened. This reporter went to interview, I think he said 14 of the 15 Ambassadors on the Council and everyone of them said they never met Kerry or talked to him on about it on the date he specified. That's the story in a nut shell. You can read the story on another thread here or go to Washinton Times.
He's confused and having flashbacks to his meetings with the North Vietnam negotiators in Paris.
This is quite devastating, unless MSM wants to cover up for Kerry. Why, the MSM even freaked out about a 30 year old DUI during the 2000 elections.
sKerry said a year or so ago that he had spoken with every UN Security Council member. The guest said he call five member/ambassadors and they denied this or said that they have never met sKerry. 2 or 3 small countries' ambassador/staff (Singapore, for example) acknowledged that they had met with sKerry.
Bottom line: He called sKerry a liar.
Another subject that came up late in the interview: 1986 World Series Game Six comment from sKerry that he sat thirty feet from Bosox 1st baseman when he let a ground ball dribble through his legs, allowing the Mets to win and force a Game Seven where the Mets went on to win the World Championship. Apparently sKerry is known to have been at a function in Boston on that evening.
Game Six in 1986 was in New York.
Yep. He ripped Kerry a new one. Made fun of his "botoxed face" being on the cover of Rolling Stone. Said something about Kerry saying his dying mother told him "remember John, intgrity."
post a thread Neon
Funny that's not what the article says
There can be no doubt...
The president needs to identify the root cause of the ammo dump issue, and have someone fired (or even courts-martialed, if US military) immediately.
Yes, it was already on. By the time I saw him come on and write this thread over half of it had been on...sorry, but it was hard hitting on Kerry. Now we can only hope the MSM gives it traction. Think they will??
There aren't even any rumors among the security council members to back Kerry's story.
French ambassador doesn't back Kerry's story.
There was no big meeting, though there may have been a few individual meetings with less important people.
SENATOR KERRY: Nicki, that's a question that's been raised by a lot of people around the country. Let me address it, but also talk about the weapons the President just talked about, because every part of the President's answer just now promises you more of the same over the next four years.
The President stood right here in this hall four years ago, and he was asked a question by somebody just like you, under what circumstances would you send people to war. And his answer was, with a viable exit strategy and only with enough forces to get the job done. He didn't do that; he broke that promise. We didn't have enough forces. General Shinseki, the Army Chief of Staff, told him he was going to need several hundred thousand. And guess what, they retired General Shinseki for telling him that. This President hasn't listened.
I went to meet with the members of the Security Council in the week before we voted. I went to New York. I talked to all of them to find out how serious they were about really holding Saddam Hussein accountable. I came away convinced that if we worked at it, if we were ready to work at letting Hans Blix do his job and thoroughly go through the inspections, that if push came to shove, they'd be there with us. But the President just arbitrarily brought the hammer down and said, nope, sorry, time for diplomacy is over, we're going. He rushed to war without a plan to win the peace. Ladies and gentlemen, he gave you a speech and told you he'd plan carefully, take every precaution, take our allies with us. He didn't. He broke his word.
Your chart lines up like a Florida voting ballot.
"Now HOW do I vote for Bush/Cheney???"
Kerry is a liar. Every time he opens his mouth.
...and Nader is REALLY surging! Wow!
I bet Fox is the only one to cover it!
Bears repeating. Thanks for posting this.
Jole Mowbrey asked the Kerry campaign if they stood by the story from a year ago (Kerry met with the entire Security Council). They said 'yes'.
Jole went to every single member of the Sec Council(15 members). Only 3 members had ever met him ever, Cameroon, Singapore...and FRANCE.
The others have never met him, their staff have never met him, and they were emphatic.
Kerry camp stood by the story as late as last night?
This really should be a big story, but because it hurts Kerry you will only hear about it on Freerepublic and maybe a passing comment on Fox news. If this story was talking about Bush it would be front page news till election day.
Question: What if Lurch was actually telling the truth this time? What could he have done for the Weasels that leaves him better off being called a liar? Treason's the only thing left to my mind.
Mowbray, you should keep digging.
OK, so Kerry lied. This is big news, how?
The whole issue may be a scam anyway.
Tons Of Explosives Missing In Iraq
"..International Atomic Energy Agency chief Mohamed ElBaradei will report the materials' disappearance to the U.N. Security Council later Monday, spokeswoman Melissa Fleming told The Associated Press.
"On Oct. 10, the IAEA received a declaration from the Iraqi Ministry of Science and Technology informing us that approximately 350 tons of high explosive material had gone missing," Fleming said. .."
"..The Iraqis told the nuclear agency the materials had been stolen and looted because of a lack of security at governmental installations, Fleming said.
"We do not know what happened to the explosives or when they were looted," she told AP..."
Thanks very much!!!
Mowbrey then said this matters because Kerry has insisted that his campaign is based on honesty and integrity...he then whispered the words "integrity,integrity,integrity", and was asked then, "So are you calling Kerry a LIAR?"
Mowbrey switched to the story about the 1986 Red Sox game and outlined how he again lied about that.
Missed the chance to call him another Al Gore.
