Can somebody tell me how the aging hippie with the weak, ancient Black Power salute can get away with passing himself off as a member of the Hip Hop generation?

[Inwoodian]

Hello, Massachusetts! This is for Barney Frank!

[gathersnomoss]

I cannot state the many thoughts that this picture so needs. Out!

[kevao]

For those FReepers who are culturally challenged, let me introduce you to Black Eyed Peas.

What does Black Eyed Peas have to do with culture?

[CygnusXI]

Oooo.. Get away from my F***ing plane you F***ing whippersnappers!!

[UCANSEE2]

You are doing the right thing. If we continue to mock the persona, to make ad hominem attacks on John Kerry, we are doing what we accuse the Dems of doing.

Notice their plan........ Nasty attacks up until the convention, then go sweet. By that time the RNC has geared up some 'gloves off' ads that seem good to us, but look like personal attacks to the Dems. We all are now making fun of every picture that comes out of Kerry's DNC group, and making fun of him and his wife personally. Though they may deserve it, can't we do better than that?

Can't we deal with the truth, the issues, and not stoop to the so-called 'mud-slinging'?

Everyone step back and look at what they have suckered us into doing at a critical time.

After a bumpy landing, presumptive Demonrat presidential nominee
John F'n Kerry holds tightly to his colostomy bag with his left arm
while invoking the universal fisting salute with his right.
(now we know why Terayzuh always looks that way)

I'm in my 40's and I know who they are. Even have one of their CD's. I like "Where is the Love" but the lyrics saying the CIA are terrorists is pretty dumb but it rymed which I expect is about as deep as their thought processes go when constructing their "art".

[Fierce Allegiance]

I'll bet someone could photoshop a big ole knife in his hand to make him look less girly.

[mountaineer]

Kerry's little pansy fist thing reminds me of Most Extreme Elimination Challenge, the Japanese gameshow shown on Spike TV. Don't - get - eliminated!! (Right you are, Ken)

Then again, I'm sure this picture resonates with Effin:

[Not A Snowbird]

(Right you are, Ken)

Indeed!

[broadsword]

"rymed"

Well, OK. I guess that was to be expected.

(sigh)

Are they going to sing about slappin' da hos and cappin' da cops? (Da culture of da guttah)

[Phantom Lord]

The BEPs are the most incoherent band I have ever seen. Lets see, they are made up of...

A hot chic
An asian gangster
A semi-rapper/pimp/50's clothes guy
A beatnik guitarist
A heavy metal looking bassist

Their "look" makes no sense at all.

[Aeronaut]

C'mon guys, this was take five. Can we stop? I'm getting sooo tired.

[Arrowhead1952]

I'm sure MeekOneGOP could do that.

[skeeter]

Stacie needs a new belt...

Or trip to the spa for a bikini wax.

[Sacajaweau]

They gave him a baseball to make him look less girly. You just have to take what you get. He's a "girly man".

For the rest of my life, I'll remember Kerry in the blue bunny suit. It's a classic picture of the "class jerk".

[isthisnickcool]

You are doing the right thing. If we continue to mock the persona, to make ad hominem attacks on John Kerry, we are doing what we accuse the Dems of doing.

If Kerry was an impressive and thoughful person people here would recognize that. If John Kerry had a history of voting in the Senate that was even slightly agreeable people here would say so. If Kerry had done ANYTHING in his past that was admirable or important people here would talk about it.

The truth is Kerry is a dork. He's obviously a strange man who has little or nothing in common with ANYONE else. Nor does his wife.

Kerry sets himself up for mockery and personal commentary because of what he does and says. There are so many things this guy has done that's just downright funny, stupid or unmanly. He's fair game.

Sometimes the truth hurts. As it does in Kerry's case. But that's nobody's fault but his.

[Ichneumon]

I thought Ed Muskie was dead.

Good call:

[Renegade]

Kerry's PINK tie( again) and the Hildabeasts pants suit!! Perfect together!!

[N. Theknow]

What a maroon!

Ehhhhhhhh. What's up Dork?
