Democrats hopping mad over 'bunny suit'

The campaign of Sen. John Kerry yesterday accused NASA of leaking a widely circulated photo that shows the candidate wrapped from top to bottom in a baby blue "bunny suit," implying that it was a "dirty trick."
One campaign official told The Washington Times last night: "All I can say is it was not an authorized release."
But the National Aeronautics and Space Administration told Fox News that the Kerry team saw the photos before publication and passed on their release.
A NASA spokesman told the top-rated cable network that the images were given to the Kerry campaign to review before several were posted on the Kennedy Space Center Web site.
In no way were photographs "leaked," the spokesman said.
But campaign manager Mary Beth Cahill said in an interview with Fox, "This was a leaked photo."
She said the campaign never was told that the photographs, which are drawing ridicule and comparison with the Michael Dukakis "tank" photo on the Internet and talk radio, would be taken during a campaign stop at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

I simply cannot believe that Kerry was stupid enough to put on that pajama looking outfit right before an election. Political Science 101 classes have pounded that Dukakis image into poli-sci majors for years. Now this.
The picture is bad enough, but it signifies a candidate so out of touch with reality, that he would submit himself to his humiliating costly shot.
Nice going Michael, ah, er, John.

Ah, yes, of COURSE Kerry thought there would be no pictures, that's why he was smiling from ear to ear during his entire NASA tour.

All this "leak" talk is goin to cheapen the stigma attached to leaks. That will be the time to really leak big time.
LOL! The bunny who cried, "Wolf!"

In no way were photographs "leaked," the spokesman said. But campaign manager Mary Beth Cahill said in an interview with Fox, "This was a leaked photo." "NASA and Fox news are conspiring with the "Republican Attack Machine", working in conjunction with the "Vast Right Wing Conspiracy", with orders directly from Bush's handlers at Halliburton, based on a directive from the Saudi consulate, to spread this doctored photo taken unknowingly without Kerry's approval", added DNC spokesman Michael Moore.

Only if you looked like that much of a dork like Kerry in one. I mean, I doubt if you had that "wabbit season" grin on your face.
