Caption John Kerry being snubbed in Iraq's US Embassy mess hall (Priceless!)
Hot Talk ^ | 12/28/06 | Hot Talk

""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!"

Actually, the really GREAT story (on Blackfive, linked to by instapundit), was that the code name for JFK's helicopter was "Weasel 61" and that the pilot jumped out of his seat while the rotors were still spinning (very unusual) and got Kerry to sign the infamous "Halp us JohnCarry, we r stuk hear in Irak" photo.

To his credit, Kerry was a good sport and autographed it.

After making the kind of comments he did, I have to wonder about his sanity if he truly expected a warm reception.

"The super 8mm camera is over there and if we can find some troops try to get one of them to at least look my way so we can get a good troops welcome JFK shot."

I just don't get it.

Kerry is a war hero with 3 purple hearts and a silver star, he killed a VC with his bare hands, spent Christmas in Cambodia, rescued an SF trooper from certain drowning, commanded his riverine boat with brave and tireless aplomb, didn't pitch his own medals over the White House fence, worked tirelessly to bring "peace" to Vietnam, testified bravely before a Senate Committee (with his medals on), heroically resisted undue pressure to release his military records, ran for President on the Democrat Line, calls for "peace" in Iraq and redeployment of our forces to somewhere else far away, is a terrific joke-teller,...

... oh, wait a minute. I do get it. Never mind!

LET'S BE SERIOUS HERE!.. Where is the pic of the two playing "Batman and Robin?"

That is of course, Kerry and Edwards... They look so cute together in those "yellow suits."

Put that Pic up please - ROFL
