I do think he may have been trying to stick it to Bush, but he should be smart enough to realize that it’s not just “right-wing nutjobs” that would interpret things in a manner disparaging to the troops, and he really should a) apologize, and b) clarify. He’s just a) clarified and b) been indignant. If a little pride is a dangerous thing, then Kerry is more dangerous to the Democrats than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima.

This is “typical GOP” he says. Well, the GOP may be helping him chew, but he put his foot in his mouth all by himself, and he’s the only one who can take it out.

Another way he may have saved the Senate is when the Republicans gain another seat when Romney appoints Kerry’s successor. Ok, that’s tongue-in-cheek. I don’t really think that Kerry’s going to resign over this, but it’s certainly true that Republican politicians have been forced out over statements much less offensive. Trent Lott, anyone?

Just another example of Kerry’s fine leadership skills in action. I still can’t believe that 56 million people actually thought this guy would make a good commander-in-chief. I’m reminded of the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy trilogy. “You’re a jerk, Kerry. A complete kneebiter.”

they all go to Drudge. and Drudge is going to run with this until Kerry apologizes. Which is never. He’d have to admit a mistake.

Worse than foley, the week of the election.

complete suicide.

if there are some who are were offended, it was not my intent, and I deeply regret this. I BELIEVE our men in the field are some of the brightest, who come from all walks of life to serve their country.

He didn’t even come close, as what was what to be his mea culpa speech, turned into a bush harangue.

Running aginst pelosi-who is recognizable to 20% of the population, the ones who already know who they are voting for, is a far weeker postion to be running against kerry.

His failure to fix a stupid mistake will cost the dems dearly. And we are supposed to trust him to fix bush’s mistakes?

He was a Senator before he married his wife. She didn’t buy it for him. But her money sure helped for the presidental run.

Actually, I was referring to Kerry’s first wife, Julia Thorne, whom I believe had a net worth of roughly $100 million dollars. Not Ter-ray-za, who inherited five times that from her first husband.
