Image of Kerry Disrupts Carefully Choreographed Photo-Op

PHILADELPHIA - When Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) visited the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Monday, his campaign hoped that the backdrop of the famed shuttle launch site would evoke images of exploration and science.

Instead, the photo that was splashed across the nation's largest tabloid newspapers was less than statesmanlike: Kerry, dressed in a hooded "bunny suit," peering out of the hatch that leads to the space shuttle.

The reaction was merciless. Under a banner headline that read "Spaceman Kerry's goofy photo flub," the New York Post suggested that Kerry looked like the sperm character Woody Allen played in his 1972 comedy, "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex."

I think the group shot is equally useful.

The sinister senator nelson is in that group shot.

I don't understand why people keep posting that stupid picture.

Delicious moments like this need to be savoured, and that goofy look needs to be drilled home into the American consciousness. Do you think the big networks are going to do this for us?

He showed it for a brief second....of course he wouldnt show any of the derivatives, too busy making cracks about GWB needing training wheels.

I don't think anyone can beat the original thread with this photo, entitled "OMG! Caption Kerry's Super DNC Convention ENEMA!"

He is so NOT cute.

He is so puky! (is that a word?)

Someone needs to grab a plastic bag and put him in it. Just like the garbage that he is.

Now, I'm gonna go spew (again) and go to bed.

Pretty sad when a member of the Senate Intelligence agency doesn't recognize that he is on candid camera.

I don't know: does this guy look as bad as Kerry? It's a very similar shot. I'm biased, but I'd say he looks a little more acceptable.

I don't understand why people keep posting that stupid picture.

Why? Here's why:

There are a number of people out there that believe the above photo of Dukakis looking like a complete dweeb singlehandedly cost him the election. I wouldn't go quite that far myself, but it is without question the photo hurt him a lot. People took one look at that picture and thought, "This guy wants to command our armed forces? I don't think so."

The Kerry Enema photo is the Dukakis Tank picture of 2004. I hope it's plastered everywhere you look from now until Election Day.

At least in that shot, the guy doesn't look like the hose is going up his rear end. Or that it's going up his rear end and he's enjoying it.
