Sen. Kerry jokes: ‘Too bad’ Gov. Sarah Palin didn’t go missing
Boston Herald ^ | June 24, 2009 | Rachelle Cohen

Posted on 06/24/2009 2:56:17 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

WASHINGTON – U.S. Sen. John Kerry must have been channeling his inner Letterman yesterday.

The Bay State senator was telling a group of business and civic leaders in town at his invitation about the “bizarre’’ tale of how South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford had “disappeared for four days’’ and claimed to be hiking along the Appalachian Trail, but no one was really certain of his whereabouts.

56,000 brave men died in Vietnam...and this scum lived.

Wish he would have stayed longer than four months.

Again the left shows what a bunch of classless Buffons they really are.
Begs the question, if John Kerry falls in the woods and nobody is around, would anyone care?

He was probably fantasizing that he was the one missing with her for four days.

They attack this woman because they fear her the most.

They never miss an opportunity to take a swipe at Sarah Palin.

She’s not responsible for Sanford and they still have to get the dig in.

Hey Kerry, any jokes about the former Miss California while you’re at it? Maybe you can dine with Perez Hilton.

I've never served, but I get the sense someone up the chain saw how incompetent he was and got him out of the theatre before he got anyone hurt.

If so that was a blessing....

This horseface sure seems to have a lot of time on his hands. I assume this was another fundraising gathering. Does he ever do anything that's actually directly related to his senate position?

Didn't this idiot promise some "hearings" to end the scourge of pirates. I know they were terrified to hear that he was on their trail.

“Too bad” the idiot, bootlicking press believed Kerry when he put a series of sycophants and liars before some half-a**ed tribunal called the “Winter Soldier” investigation into supposed war “atrocities”, including one of his prime “witnesses” who had never set foot in the country of South Vietnam but who testified he had “first hand knowledge” of what never happened.

Kerry Hypocrisy
Kerry has his unthrown medals on his office wall and here’s what he wrote in “A Call to Service”, his campaign bio: “I could never agree with those in the antiwar movement who dismissed our troops as war criminals or our country as the villain in the drama As a veteran of both the Vietnam war and the Vietnam protest movement, I say to both conservative and liberal misinterpretations of that war it’s time to get over it and recognize it as an exception, not as a ruling example, of the US military engagements of the twentieth century.”

Even though he said this;

He spoke as a member of an antiwar group called the Vietnam Veterans against the War (VVAW), some of whom felt kinship with Communist China’s Chairman Mao. Testifying eloquently against the war and U.S. bombings using a speech prepared by Bobby Kennedy speechwriter Adam Walinsky, Kerry slipped away from the manuscript to add rhetorical bombs of his own design, saying he had heard U.S. soldiers relate how they had “personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in a fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war.”

Kerry also was quoted during this period as saying, “War crimes in Vietnam are the rule, not the exception.” He spoke on television of “crimes committed on a day-to-day basis, with the full awareness of officers at all levels of command.”

Many veterans were outraged at these charges of American war crimes, which he later acknowledged he personally never saw, and which it developed had been spun out of the mouths of young Maoists. Michael Bernique, who served with Kerry as a swift-boat skipper, reportedly said, “I think there was a point in time when John was making it up fast and quick. I think he was saying whatever he needed to say.”

War veteran John O’Neill, who publicly debated Kerry at this time, has been reported as saying Kerry’s statements about war crimes were irresponsible, wrong, immoral and a “disservice to all the people that were there. ... The war didn’t change [Kerry]. I think he was a guy driven tremendously by ambition. I think he was that way before he went and is that way today.”

With his testimony before the committee, Kerry was in the eye of a hurricane, providing visibility calculated to propel a political career in Eastern Massachusetts, a whirlpool of antiwar activism so powerful that in 1972 it was the only state to vote for antiwar candidate George McGovern. Years later, local journalists laugh, Boston’s pol Billy Bulger gave Kerry the nickname “live shot” for his strenuous efforts to appear on the nightly news.
