On his visit to Iraq, Senator Kerry apparently got something like the silent treatment from the troops who are "stuck" there. WDAY's Scott Hennen quotes a message from a friend serving in Iraq:
This is a true story....Check out this photo from our mess hall at the US Embassy yesterday morning. Sen. Kerry found himself all alone while he was over here. He cancelled his press conference because no one came, he worked out alone in the gym w/o any soldiers even going up to say hi or ask for an autograph (I was one of those who was in the gym at the same time), and he found himself eating breakfast with only a couple of folks who are obviously not troops.
What is amazing is Bill O'Reilly came to visit with us and the troops at the CSH the same day and the line for autographs extended through the palace and people waited for two hours to shake his hand. You decide who is more respected and loved by us servicemen and women!
Scott comments: Again I say..."GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!!" I think it's fair to say that the photo qualifies for consideration as part X of James Taranto's series on the troops responding to Charles Rangel's reiteration of John Kerry's calumny (see today's incredible part IX of Taranto's series here).
UPDATE: Scott writes that he'll be filling in for Sean Hannity on his radio show Wednesday and Thursday, and promises to talk about the photo. Scott is one of the best local talk radio hosts in the country. Check him out on the Hannity show this week.

Way to go Troops....and he said you weren't smart! Ha
I'm sure he got the red carpet treatment in Syria though!
Gotta love it! Poar Mr. Carry! boo hoo
You know... politics... if you make the most of it, you work hard, you use some common sense, and you make an effort to be patriotic, you can do well. If you don't... you get stuck as the ski-bum-boy-toy of a gin-soaked ketchup dowager.
It's a good example of what needs to happen to judges and other politicians who
do not follow the constitution, but try to change it and rule against it precepts.
He's worse than a fart in an elevator.
And this arrogant dipsh*t has done nothing but insult them for 35 years. He makes Hanoi Jane look like a patriot.
Well said.
You beat me to it! God, I love our troops. Please keep them safe. Amen
I never tire of seeing that pic.

=== John Hanoi Kerry is trying to lose another war today.
True, however our guys have his number. As you may recall "jon carry" visited Walter Reed before he departed for Iraq and visits with our enemies in the ME. Wellllll.....he was booed when he tried to address a group of our troops. Then he went visiting a certain area. When he arrived our troops turned around and walked out! The idiot approached one of our heroes with his hand extended to shake hands. Our beloved hero looked at him and said I am NOT shaking your hand and I have nothing to say to you, nor do I care to hear anything you have to say. With that, the hero proceeded to gather his stuff to leave. That stupid, ignorant, moron "carry" put his hand on the hero's shoulder..... BWAAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAA!!! 10 posted on 12/24/2006 9:38:07 AM CST by Just A Nobody
