When asked about the mishap a moment later, he said sharply, "I don't fall down," then used an expletive to describe the agent who "knocked me over."

What a f'ing a'hole.

Oh, the wounded hero getting R&R

Where's the PUKE ALERT?

[kennedy]

He had just sat down for a bite to eat on the crowded patio near the lift line when a waiting skier, John Norris, shouted: "Hey, John! What foreign leaders talked to you?"

Sounds like a Freeper.

I sure do hope he does not run into a tree.

**Several Democrats and Kerry aides said some of his missteps were a result of exhaustion. They and some of the senator's friends said the vacation could not have come too soon. "He needed it about as badly as anybody could need it," said Sam Grossman, a real estate developer who has skied with Ms. Heinz Kerry here for decades, and with Mr. Kerry for years. "The best thing that can happen is he'll sleep, relax, eat some good food, and then, in a couple of days, he'll be back firing again." **

As President, one cannot 'get away' from all responsibilities for a couple days to regroup. You're *on* all the time. Kerry isn't able to meet that responsibility.

"Everyone in this town is anti-Bush," Barrett, a Junior Olympic skier, said between runs. "He's trying to destroy our planet."

I wonder how his mommy got him to the slopes? SUV? Airplane to the area? This little puke is skiing an area that was clearcut a hundred years ago to provide him with his precious slopes. IDIOT.

This is from the NYT, I thought we had to exerpt these...

Weary?! What a wimp! Try running a country at war, you wuss. Jeez, you can't even stand the campaign.

This article was perplexing. Does the NY Slimes think this helps Kerry. It had the usual Bush-bashing statements (e.g., "attacks", "millions of dollars in negative advertising". However the article also discussed his flip flop image and made jokes about it (e.g., "Should he ski, or snowboard? Or maybe both? He gave no clue where he stood. But that was Wednesday night.").

On a whole after I read this article I thought "what a flaming A-hole this guy is" but then I know I'm biased and proud of it. I don't think this article helps Kerry at all but on the streets of NY, who knows. In fact, even the headline talks about how weary he is... one wonders if he has the stamina to be President (remember this, that issue will be back). How will the the left respond to this rich guy on the slopes who "doesn't fall down" and swears at secret service agents? Or don't they care abou the facts?

Notice the dateline is "Ketchum Idaho" making his place sound so mundane.

He really has an 8,000 sq ft mansion in SUN VALLEY!!

More NYT spin for their boy.

Wonder if JFKerry brought his "reenactment" movies he made while in Vietnam, reenacting his gun fight.

I have heard this is his favorite past time activity.

"indoor John and outdoor John" — one who agonizes over decisions, and another who acts boldly on them.

And of course INDOOR JOHN comes up with a decision and then OUTDOOR JOHN comes up with a different one
Thus covering all bases

"Maybe it'll give him a chance to not think about all that stuff, and revitalize himself."

My gawd!!! What does he think being President is about? Campaigning is child's play compared to being POTUS. I can see the scenario now if he is actually elected (God please forbid)

You know what this reminds me of? How the Kennedy family saying used to be "Kennedys don't cry." Is his motto "Kerrys don't fall down"?

Hey, skiing and snowboarding is fine. The problem is, John Kerry is a rich, foul mouthed, liberal elitist, on top of being a lying phony and a fraud. And with the personality of a doorknob.

Well now, I guess none of us will be visiting Ketchum any time soon.
