Apology aside, it's a matter of arrogance

That seems pretty clear-cut. But the ever-evasive Sen. Kerry, who voted for the war in Iraq before he voted against it, angrily denied that he was questioning the intelligence of our fighting men and women. According to Sen. Kerry, it was a botched joke that was aimed at President Bush.

... Several key Democrats said Sen. Kerry should apologize for his remarks. But the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee couldn't find the humility to admit that he was wrong. Finally, he offered a quali-

What apology??? I am so tired of all of these forced apologies. Just like first graders.

Its funny to watch the MSM on this one. They either are saying "What was Kerry thinking?". Which means "Damn he's going to ruin it for us", or they are explaining vigorously what he meant.

Remember when the media started the "subliminal message Rat" controversy. They had to really stretch for that one but they go so far out of the way to explain John Kerry's remarks to us. Rush played a clip from CNN where the reporterette said "We can only hope that this story goes away soon".

[Socratic]

There was no apology. Some insipid statement blaming others for being too stupid to correctly interpret his words is certainly no apology. The man doesn't even have the decency to speak in person before the American people. His cowardice is again made manifest.

[N. Theknow]

He apologized "if" he offended anyone because the troops aren't dumb, they are a joke?

[Coldwater Creek]

BINGO!

[syriacus]

Where's the beef joke?

Kerry said that people who study do "well." Bush has obviously done "well," since he's the most powerful person in the world.

What apology???

A true apology would be made in front of the troops in Iraq. This subhuman, I won't call him a man, is a disgrace to the United States and the Senate.

Hey, Massachusetts voters, are you happy with your choice? You must be since you keep sending this jerk back to the Senate over and over again. How many times does this guy need to embarass you and the rest of the country before you wake up?

A forced apology is meaningless. "Say you're sorry" may be necessary for a two year old, but when an adult needs it.... well, that's just beyond excusable.

[metmom]

Don't forget, those are the same people who send a murderer back to represent them every year. They obviously are beyond shame. How sad that people conscience's are so seared. (Apologies to all conservative Mass FReepers, I know what it's like to live in a blue state; we have clinton. You can only do so much.)

[SMARTY]

I work with a girl like that. She kicks s(^% in my face daily, almost hourly, and then later apologizes with all kinds of lame excuses. It is easy for her to apologize because there is no sincerity in the act. Nothing to it... just mouth the appropriate stuff and go along as usual till next time. No one trusts or respects her and she can't figure it out. In the meantime she is positively salivating for credibility with all of us.

Three points regarding the Kerry apology issue:
1. John Kerry's recent line "I APOLOGIZE TO NO ONE" is
proof that his wife's money has gone to his head.
2. To conspire with Commies and lie about our military
during wartime is treason.
3. To see one's actions to be justified because you will
them to be correct is to be a socio-path.

Rush was far too kind. Kerry should not be dubbed "Lurch" - it's insulting to the Frankenstein monster.

[Philistone]

What I wanna know is where are all the "doughy" people standing up for Rush!?

Now I'm not doughy myself, but some of my best friends are doughy and I think sKerry owes them all an apology.

Seriously, if a conservative congress critter had called Teresa Kerry "doughy", they'd be forced to resign...

[Coldwater Creek]

LOL! I am not doughy either, but I will stand up for Rus on this one.

[underbyte]

Arrogance will drop an I.Q. 50 points

[DCPatriot]

Well I'm Doughy-Lite and I think it's disgusting that he insulted our leader. < sticks out tongue >

[layman]

According to Sen. Kerry, it was a botched joke

Senator Kerry .... listen to me .... I want to help you. Don't tell jokes. You can't tell jokes. There's nothing humorous about you. You are many things, like boring, spooky, condescending, and elitist, but funny you are not. If you must engage in joke telling, confine it to whispering 'farmer's daughter' jokes to Fats Kennedy, or 'farmer's son' jokes to Barney Frank. Or maybe you could try telling some 'staggering drunk' jokes to both Theresa and Fats. But, forget the stand-up comic aspirations. Stick to what you're good at ... whatever that is.

[upcountryhorseman]

Riight, what apology? He said" I'm sorry that you misunderstood what I said".

Amazing. He even managed to insult the "Dough Boys" who served heroically in WWI.

What the US Army recruiting poster under "President" Kerry would look like:

Our brave warriors n Irak respond to Jon Carry"

Kerry is no different re his hatred of a strong America and our warriors than 99.9% of the rats in congress. Every rat running for election should have to face a copy of this banner everytime they show their treasonous faces. Pelosi, Murtha, Clintoon, Boxer, Kennedy, Durbin, Levin, Rangle, Reid and other rats in congress hate our military and a strong America. Just look at their voting records the past two years as President Bush pointed out this week.

Kerry is shown leading his fellow hate America and our military Rats to their final destination in American Politics:

Vote against all traitors this election day. Support our troops and their CIC, President Bush.
