It isn't the garb. It's the goof in the garb. I also hold my sides when Kerry wears his other costumes: hockey suit, skiboarding suit, ski jacket with daisy chain pull, etc. I have no problem with tanks and helmets either, but when Dukakis looked like Arte Johnson doing his German soldier act on Laugh-In, well, I couldn't keep the chuckles inside.
I agree Kerry is a fraud in every way.....but I'm surprised you left out the two MOST ridiculous "images" he projected recently to "remake himself"..
1. Kerry as the shotgunner....who claimed that Deer hunting was his favorite - and that he enjoyed "crawling on my stomach through the woods with my shotgun hunting deer"....
NO ONE hunts deer on their stomach.
2. Kerry on his too expensive road bike --- wearing his yellow "biker's fairy suit"...
