Foot in mouth disease

[Highwayman]

John sKerry stuck his foot in his mouth all the way up to his kneecap.

"You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."

I’ve heard the excuses and I know he intended to bash Bush but got his words screwed up. It happens to the best of us. What rubs me wrong is his arrogance and refusing to apologize to the troops that he insulted.

"I apologize to no one for my criticism of the president and of his broken policy."

Pardon me sKerry but it didn’t come out that way and it wouldn’t hurt you to offer up an apology to any folks that were offended. And it just gets worst with all the Democrats trying to make excuses and claim Republicans are overreacting. We’ve watched Democrats all over Bush for mispronouncing a word. Ya’ll want to dish it out you better be ready to take it.

And while I’m at it, sKerry has no business trying to bash Bush about studying hard, doing homework and making an effort to be smart. They went to the same school and Bush got better grades.

It was nice of him to remind folks why their mascot is a jack…, correction, donkey one week before the election.

I been watchin all this in total amazement. I can see his no apology to the republicans....... typical

No apology to the troops for his fumbled tongue and brain??? Unforgivable and arrogant...... but then that's what happens when you study hard make the most of it and do poorly....... Karma it's a glorious thing - again just reassures me that no party afficiation is good....... they are both just so stupid sometimes. It's all over power and more power...... geesh I wish we would all wake up to what Washington breeds.

Kerry & burrrrp Kennedy both come from Taxachuttes.

Why aren't we able to boot that state out of the Union?

I get it.... skerry's comment was a gaffe. OK.

Now we'll see how skerry handles his damage-control. It was a nice gift to the Republicans, though.
BTW wordy, I missed you when we were doing all the 'group hug'-ing last week. Where were you?

[wordsmythe]

The Republicans need all the help they can get.

I was busy and there wasn't anything really interesting enough to prompt me to sit down and type.

......and now Kerry is like the plague....the Dems are dropping him from speaking at their campaigns like he has Ebola or something. I doubt if you hear anything from this guy from here until the election. If it WAS just a slip of the lip how come his party isn't standing behind him??????


AND...FWIW....The Armed forces is a cross section of America. (out of dodge will argue this point as he does most points) but we recruit kids that are not in line to head to Harvard but we also recruit very bright and gifted young people. (What do you think it takes mentally to be an Arabic linguist)? Some people believe it or not....regardless of intelligence or economic background BELIEVE they should serve their country. The Demokrats don't and will never understand this. I was kicking back in college, bored as hell, parents paying my way when I joined. I wanted something more.... This summer I enlisted the son of a local lawyer here in town. He was involved in the theatre at the school (both directing and acting). The kid had everything he wanted and was on his way to his degree in college. The war was going on and despite his liberal, dope smoking, theatre buddies that can't wait to move to Canada (this is no lie...he told me that's what they talk about) telling him how stupid he was to go fight Bush's war...He enlisted. He amost maxed the ASVAB test and instead of enlisting to be a rocket scientist or something he enlisted for Airborne Infantry and now is in Special Forces school and from what I hear just kicking ass on a daily basis. This guy could do anything he wanted for the most part and chose his country over his personal comfort. To John Kerry....Just two words. F*CK YOU! (you medal tossing, u-boat wanna be, girl hair havin', talkin' out the side of your mouth, livin off of your wife's money, lyin ass, military protesting punk)

Aw come on Army. You're among friends here. We understand.

You can tell us how you really feel.

I can't really tell you how I feel about Kerry or Ted Kennedy on this board or any board....I would get arrested by someone in dark classes and a suit.
