Kerry photo-ops Reagan casket

Presumptive Democrat presidential nominee John Kerry showed up at the Reagan Library on Tuesday afternoon to view the deceased former president’s casket, setting off a firestorm of reaction.

·        At issue: The need for a Kerry visit to the Reagan Library in California. As reported by Rush Limbaugh, a Kerry spokesperson had already announced Kerry would attend the State Funeral for Reagan on Friday in Washington, D.C.

·        At issue: The photographer accompanying Kerry into the Reagan Library. Clear guidelines (handed out to everyone prior to entering the library to view Reagan’s casket) state: “Absolutely no photography will be allowed inside the Library.” A photographer entered slightly ahead of Kerry and took pictures of Kerry while he was there. These pictures were posted as ‘Associated Press’ photos on YahooNews news 30 minutes after Kerry’s visit. [see photo below]

·        At issue: The timing of the Kerry visit to the Reagan Library in California. Dignitaries could view the casket at the Reagan Library in California before the general public or after the general public; or in Washington, D.C. during the time set aside for the other government big wigs to attend. California Governor and Mrs. Schwarzenegger were in attendance during regular public viewing hours at the personal request of Mrs. Reagan – who did not take Kerry’s personal phone call to her, and did not issue an invitation to Kerry.

When I heard that Kerry would be going to the Reagan Library, I took an informal poll of my friends asking whether or not Kerry would have the decency as a former Navy Officer, to snap a salute to President Reagan, as I did, and every other former military member seemed to do.

Everyone felt he would except me, as I figured he could not risk Liberal support by saluting Reagan. It turns out I was right, and now I find that he brought his own camera crew as well?

I hate that Bastard.

Oh imagine that?? He steps on the blue carpet and they have to escort him out like bouncers with a drunk! ha ha ha!! "Mr. Kerry, please leave!" "Get your hands off me! Do you know who I am?"

EXACTLY....SPOT ON!

[Dante3]

Did the media commented on this? Or did they give Kerry another pass?

[Pukin Dog]

I have seen no comments, but I am counting on Rush Limbaugh to bring this to the public's attention today.

[goodnesswins]

I really do not mind him bypassing people....I saw someone being escorted "into" line the previous night....BUT, what I DO MIND is that HE SHOULD HAVE DONE HIS RESPECTING in DC....and probably WILL, AGAIN. Will be looking for him to mug for the camera's again on Thursday and/or Friday.....Poor Dems...this is the "best" they have...I ALMOST feel sorry for them........I said ALMOST!

How about a ping to the Nascar list. Can you tell that Clintoon is running his show...

These pictures were posted as ‘Associated Press’ photos

Second time this week AP has been cited as the source. First was the "crosses in the background" of his photo op and now this.

I guess AP just loves VN vets </sarcasm off>

"I am surprised that even the dim Dims have put this wholly unlikeable guy up as their candidate."

I firmly believe that the Dims feel that this individual is their best bet for taking down Bush. The dims are fully committed to his direction, his history and his beliefs.

If not, wouldn't there be some showing of outrage? Don't fool yourself, we have a vast group of liberals who would take this country down in a New York second.

My only question is where did Bill set up his book table?

[Cobra Scott]

How did that steaming piece of Donkey extrement get to bypass everyone else that was waiting 12 hours in line?

I wonder if this was somewhat expected, and Kerry was given just enough rope to hang himself, as opposed to giving him camara time making some big stink.

[IPWGOP]

yep, they're just 'Johnny on the spot' for him...
