What a bunch of frauds!

Bwahahahaha...

Let them eat cake....

Will the press have a field day with this like they did with the alleged "display" turkey Bush held in Iraq?

The entourage had also expected to stop at the Alexis Diner at Route 9W and North Plank Road in the Town of Newburgh. In fact, the Kerry advance team had ordered 125 lunches for the team and supporters. Their buses drove right by the diner on I-84 and proceeded straight to Wendy's.

Any FReepers in the Newburgh area wanna check and see if the sKerry gang stiffed Alexis' for the 125 lunches to (sorta) go?

I hope the Alexis Diner secured advance payment for the lunches it prepared.

And Teresa had to ask what chili was because she couldn't figure it out at the counter!

No my fiend, this will end up in the calender section next to an ad for the next Michael Moore movie.

A touch of Class.... (Not that there's anything wrong with it!)

" included shrimp vindallo, grilled diver sea scallops, prosciutto, wrapped stuffed chicken, and steak salad. The meals came to about $200... "

I MAY BE A REDNECK - but I cannot pronounce half of that...

I've seen this mentioned a couple of times, but I've never seen a direct report on it--which I would love to see. (And I don't doubt it for a minute.)

Just look at this. Their first photo op of the official campaign, and they have this many boners. What a bunch of monkeys!

I can't help but see that photo and think - so, when is Edwards going to sue the fast food industry on behalf of his wife?

[traumer]

Their economic plan assures that EVERY AMERICAN can afford their birthday dinner at Wendy's !!
:o)

[independentmind]

It's funny that I've seen pictures of Kerry, and the Edwards but not Teresa at Wendy's. I wonder if she just couldn't help looking out of place.

The article states that 19 of these lunches were ordered for $200. Considering the ingredients, there is no way that the lunches cost only slightly more than ten dollars each. Either they were sold at a very steep discount, or the price was purposefully reported incorrectly.
