A Decent Man Would Apologize, but Kerry Will Not

Did Bush apologise to Clymer? Maybe my memory is not serving me well, but it seems that I remember that he apologized for using foul language, but never apologized directly for what was inadvertantly picked up by his mike.

Say scarletletter, did Moby send you over here? So far most of your posts are critical of our COC and/or his losing his support from his base. My question is why you are here?

Instead of pursuing an apology, the GOP should just be explaining Kerry's comments as a window into the man's soul. It's a pretty ugly view.

Ugly view? I'd say that window is either boarded up or looks onto a blank wall!

People of the Brahmin caste do not apologize to untouchables, you know.

"his constituency is equally as abominable as he and demands no accountability for his lies and the damages he does "

Consistituency, media, staff, family, DNC, ...

Never Hoppin! The guy is a bum and will always be a bum. Just pray he is never President. We will suffer much more is that happens.

Well, we're both right - no ideas and motivated only by hatred for that which he cannot comprehend

Politics of personal destruction BUMP.

John Fuhgidaboutit Kerry has been running a scampaign of lies. We can start with the AWOL issue. Kerry just told his supporters that it wasn't a big issue, he never said that the paperwork proved George W. Bush was not AWOL. Basically his talking points were that "Bush was AWOL, so what". If he wanted to do the right thing he would have said that it was a false issue, not a non-issue.

He could also use his own defense of President Clinton going without support from France or Russia or even the United Nations in efforts to go after Saddam Hussein. That such motions did not come in hour days or weeks. That they were the result of a series of actions undertaken by Saddam Hussein since his 1991 war resolution.

Instead Mr. F just pretends that never happened and that he got rushed into a war resolution vote.

"In one week, John Kerry has managed to insult the intelligence of black people, degrade the American worker, make a mockery of our election finance laws, and smear our president for his fine leadership in perilous times. "

And in that same week, he has also... believe it or not... trashed the Pope.

I really can't believe -anyone- is worried that this idiot will win in November. The media has carried water for the Dems before, and it still hasn't been enough for them to win most elections.

John F'ing Kerry is a social Clymer, dumping an ill filthy rich wife for another even luckier, filthier rich widow with connections to make Kerry acceptable to the socialist heads of Old Europe and Africa.

His 3 Purple Hearts were awarded despite reports that he didn't miss a day of field duty for injuries "qualifying" for the honorable badges of service.

Only Kerry prevents his Purple Heart medical records from being released to the public for our review. How many band-aids did it take to keep this hero on duty to commit his share of war crimes?

What's just as bad is the union guy who said "it's scary" !

I have many union relatives and friends and they all hate the union except for the money.

The union guy who said "it's scary" was talking about not getting his ass kissed by Bush like the rats always do. They want protectionism to protect their over paid jobs and benefits !

Unions had a good purpose once but now they're blood suckers always wanting more and more and who pays more because of them - we all do !

The average auto worker is getting $100 per hour when wages and benefits are added in !

Who's paying cement truck drivers $40 per hour to deliver cement to build our roads - we all do !

Why does it cost 3 times as much to get a coffee mug made in America instead of china - Unions !

Kerry is their poster boy because he will kiss their asses not because they agree with his policies !

"did Bush apologize to Clymer?"

I don't remember Clymer being a candidate for the Presidency. I've been hearing the dim talking points on this all day. Clymer wasn't running for anything. He was an asshole reporter who constantly slants and whores for the dim party. So, it's not the same thing.

They also have been trying to equate the McCain SC primary to what John Loudmouth Kerry did. They say Bush treated McCain like a step-child and said awful things to smear him. They bring up how Bush trashed his military record, his wife and his adopted child. Someone show me one quote of Bush himself doing that. This lying/crooked remark came out of the Kerry's own mouth. No attack dog said it for him. He said it. So, he alone is responsible for it. The dims are "at it again" with their talking points. So, I guess your just trying to spread the dnc party line?

Like many other words in the modern lexicon, "apology" has lost its meaning. If there is no contrition, there can be no apology.

Focusing upon Kerry's character, the display of the video clip of the 70's Kerry, gaunt and long-haired with his fragile constipated demeanor as he spoke to that Senate hearing long ago, is refreshing. It serves as showing the inner core of the present day candidate Senator. He has managed to disguise his arrogance and insufferable whininess to some extent--no doubt to professional image makers and consultants.

The timbre of his voice his revealed for what it really is when you see the old video clip. I suggest that that clip be played as much as possible. It even works on audio alone, but of course, the video is better.

I mean the clip where he clarifies that he means to say that the atrocities and murdering of innocents in Vietnam by US soldiers was not isolated incidents, but day to day events, part of a routine practice and known and condone by all levels of command.

The ability to say such lies, for his political purposes at the time: fighting the Vietnam War which he had opposed BEFORE he even went into the Navy, should be the factor which disqualifies John Kerry for the presidency, without any furhter discussion. The craveness of the Democratic party is that they would choose such a man. Well, let them reap the whirlwind. They know that exhibition of who John Kkerry is will bury him. That is why they are early on trying to poison the well of political discourse so that they can claim that the truths about Kerry is just part of the "Republican Attack Machine" as their way to get the public to not see the clear record.

It is the old trick of the evil. Confuse and distract.
