Kerry’s book delivers both personal and political insights

I’ve never met a happy lieutenant governor. That is because most of them quickly become tired of playing second fiddle. They want to be governor, or U.S. senator, or even president.

Which is why lieutenant governors across the nation should be inspired by John Kerry’s recently published “Every Day is Extra,” a wordy personal history of a life lived to the fullest.

He knows how lieutenant governors feel because he was once one. That was when he served as the ambitious but discontented lieutenant governor under Gov. Michael Dukakis, whom he did not like very much, from 1982 to 1984, before running for the U.S. Senate. The Duke wouldn’t give him anything to do.

Kerry’s book was publisted by Simon & Schuster, which is owned by CBS.

Figures, eh?

I really doubt Kerry wrote it. Or that S&S cared who did.

That idiot wrote a book?

And only idiots would read it.

And uber-idiots would believe it.

Shove it, Lurch.

Dumb*ss.

No, he did not. Someone else wrote it and he [Kerry] took the credit. Taking credit for the labor and sweat of others is Kerry’s forte.

I wonder if his book details how to make yourself a war hero, turn against your country in Congressional testimony, marry one of the richest women in the country, buy your way into high political office and then prove you son Howdy Doody is smarter than you are.

The title sets my teeth on edge -- “Every Day is Extra”. Is he telling us that he cheated death? Running through a hail of bullets in Vietnam time after time, suffering 3 purple hearts and yet through some miracle surviving certain death? After an ordeal like that, I suppose “Every Day is Extra”.

IF I were to guess, I would bet that every page....every page had his picture on it while he holds up bogus military awards.

Kerry and Jane Fonda had an illegitimate kid, his name is Hussain Obama...

A worthless, air sucking, open festering wound, self glorifying self important POS with icing on it.

1-Nobody cares about Kerry's 'personal insights'

2-Nobody cares about his 'political insights'

All book purchases are political contributions and the book will not be read.

Wow you married 2 billionaire heiresses and therefore lived life to the fullest and you think that someone, anyone wants to read how you did that. You never had a job, never worked a day in your life. Lived the life off of some other billionaire’s man’s widow and somehow scraped together the intestinal fortitude to live life to the fullest?

I have to buy this book!

How to find a rich woman and marry her... And get a do-nothing job and milk it...
