"What meeting? I don't remember such a meeting. There was a meeting?"
"I'd resigned long before that meeting."
"I'd resigned before that meeting took place."
"I went to that meeting to resign. That debate must have taken place after I'd left."
"I attended that meeting, but strenuously objected and immediately resigned when the topic was brought up."
"At the meeting, I voted 'No.'"
Anyone want to guess about tomorrow's response???
"I didn't inhale."
If Kerry was involved in such a group, if he attended such a meeting, if he participated in such a vote - he is not fit to be a serious candidate for President. The truly obscene things the press make excuses for will one day harm this nation's safety (if it hasn't already).
But my close second in culpability is Republicans. We treat democrats with respect who we should demand resign. A Senator who killed a girl in his car, went home to "sleep it off." and prevented an inquest; A president who violently raped and battered a woman as a state attorney general, then groped a woman in the Oval office on the day her husband had committed suicide; A congresswoman who urged Fidel Castro NOT to extradite a killer who executed a NJ State Trooper, calling the killer a "freedom fighter." The list goes on and I think way too many republicans are guilty of tolerating such people.
Some day one of them will sell us out for good, because they are truly heinous people.
