That was a good comeback, i must say - at least on a politcal level. he took an insult in spun it into a pandering golden soundbite. The original statement highlights Kerry's arrogance.

Methinks the boy has overdrawn on his VietNam Vet Credit Card

Wasn't nearly as offensive as Shrillary's Ghandi-managing-a-gas-station comment.

Ya, but Ghandi did wear diapers.

This is a pretty cheap shot.

Kerry was born in 1943, and Edwards was born in 1953.

In 1969, Edwards was hardly in diapers.

Have you seen anything about John F-N Kerry's video gaffe where he mimed smoking a joint for the cameras on his recent campaign tour with Peter of Peter, Paul, and Mary?

That picture of Kerry with John Lennon is a fake anyway.
If you blow it up you can see the pixilation where his face was placed over somebody elses face, who happened to have similer hair.

Late Night With Conan O'Brien has been getting back at Hillary for her lengthy joke about Gandhi operating a gas station by having "Gandhi" come out from behind the curtain and hurl a few personal jokes at Hillary (several times an episode).

I don't understand the insult. Everybody was in diapers at the beginning of our lives (and some of us end up back in them on the other side of life). Even if Edwards was born in, say, 1966, and was still in diapers when Kerry came back from Vietnam, then what was Kerry expecting to gain by pointing that out? Were people supposed to vote for him over Edwards on that basis? I don't get it.

I thought that his campaign leaked that photo. Did they fabricate it like the communists routinely did?

The more revealing question is, "Is Kerry back in diapers?" Too much ketchup will do that to you ...

Kerry ought to fake a 'Nam flashback' on stage at some point. I bet he'd get points for it.
