Ditto. A long, slow, painful decline would be delicious in the meantime. That's the ticket - the theme of her show Mean Time with Katie Kupcake.

What committee will John Kerry chair when the democrats seize control of the House?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The Senate Intelligence Committee, the very place where he could do the most damage to our nation by committing treason, like he did during the Paris Peace Talks with North Vietnam.

"...and never intended to refer to any troop."

Is this proper English? It does not sound right. I never refer to any military person I know as a "troop"; "this troop I know"; "Mike is not just any troop"; see?

I have heard all I need to hear from Mr.Kerry. He dissed the military and then he said, "I apologize to no one" in his first "explaination".

Let's all think linearly and logically.

1.Kerry takes a movie video recorder to Viet Nam, stages and directs himself out of harms way, and says he did it to enhance his future political carear.

2. He fakes 3 injuries, after 4 months in Nam goes home on "highly suspect" Afteraction Reports which garnered him 3 Purple Hearts, (never spent 1 minute receiving medical attention in a clinic or hospital).

3.Links with Jane Fonda and protests the war and his compatriates.

5.Works with the North Vietamese and for that has photos put in a North Viet Nam museum celebrating the victory over the United States.

6. Goes before the United States senate select committee and "trashes" over 500,000 veterans of the Viet Nam war.(And never recants his wordsL.

7. Upon becoming the democrat nominee, Swiftboaters came forth, (all but 1 alive) and tell of the lies in Kerrys' testimony before the Senate committee.

8.Lies in his book "Winter Warrior" about a 'secret' mission into Cambodia where he was sent by President Nixon at Christmas when he could not possibly have been in Cambodia.(media never asks a question about it)(then has his election campaign workers try to 'buyback' all copies on e-bay)

9. Just 18 months ago accuses 150,000 American soldiers "terrorize women and children busting down doors going into their homes."

10. Lies throughout the 2004 campaign.

11. And now, "The MSM tells us that it is inconceivable that Kerry would speak ill of the military. That we are not to believe what we heard. That given his history of a 'Benedict Arnold' type behavior, we are simply hayseed rightwingers if we put it all together to interpret what Mr. Kerry said as exactly what he said. We are "part of a republican hate-smear machine from Mr. Roves department." Mr. Kerry is not the problem, we are the problem, they would have us think. We didn't hear him say, "....if you don't do well, you get dumped into Iraq."

Here is what happened. Kerry thought he was speaking to a 'like-minded' group of people who he tried to play to in a way he thought was safe and would not be widely reviewed. He let his guard down for a few minutes and "truly" spoke his heart to a group who he thought, to the man, thought exactly the same way he does. Then upon being caught, he feigns self rightous indignation, continues his lies and prevarication, dumps on the republicans. Now here we sit with Kerry saying "I am sorry the American people were so stupid that they did not understand me and could not read my mind." You know damn well that is what compelled him to open up and for once in his sorry life tell people, not a boxed, canned lie, but the truth. And the truth is that he hates AMerica, he hates the military, he hates American institutions, and he hates the conservatives in this country.

Well Now. I would like to thank all of Massachusetts for putting this son-of-a-b***ch into the senate to represent you all. He is all that you are, unless you would like to replace him the next time he comes up for election, or perhaps you might want to recall him. Whichever,..you are stuck with him and what he says reflects on all dems and all of Massachusetts. Hope you are proud of your senator.

Looks like while Kerry was busy trying to figure a way to weasel out of his latest problem last night, the president was busy handing out candy to trick or treators at an air base:

I agree.

sKerry needs to go to Iraq and apologize to all the troops personally.

Eisenhower made Patton apologize to his troops for what I would consider a much lessor offense.

But who am I kidding, sKerry is no Patton.

What I get out of all this is that John Kerry was against the U.S. troops before he was for the U.S. troops (that were offended), and incidentally he was for the U.S. war in Iraq before he was against it!

FYI heads up East Coast-
David Letterman is about to do his TOP 10 - and it's John Kerry's apologies or reasons (or something like that)
LOL - He has already done a few hilarious shots at Kerry - one was how the guy can lose an election without even running! and another was how he is so sad about it he has been walking around all day with a long face! LMAO

Well, he can now claim that "he didn't apologize, before he apologized"--so he can accurately claim that he FEELS STRONGLY BOTH WAYS!

Very good post, but you forgot Kerrys mode of operandus when it comes to women.

He is the kept man, with butler, married to the billionare widow, after the multi millon dollar x-wife had enough. A man who sleeps in silk and eats caviar gained by the hard work of the inlaws. Then pretends to be oh so important.

I guess when he lives that contemptable kind of life its hard not to insult everyone else. He will always be trying to prove he is a self made man while wearing the panties his women have purchased, purchased on another mans dime.

She and Bob Schieffer just clucked their tongues over how badly the Republicans were going down.

The seven people watching must have found that slightly less boring than normal.

Blitzer is a delusional bastard if he really thinks that..
It ain't over until WE say it's over.

What's over is Kerry's chance of ever running for President...
Hell, Massoftwoshits may even regain consciousness and throw the bastard out of office.

Semper Fi

"My poorly stated joke at a rally was not about, and [was] never intended to refer to any troop," he said"

Of course it was about the troops. What a liar.
