President Bush and Sen. John Kerry are within a quarter-mile of each other Wednesday as they both campaign in Iowa, a state where polls show them neck-and-neck in the race for the White House.

The two's paths almost crossed in Davenport, a city that some political experts say provided Democrat Al Gore the ballots he needed to capture the state with a margin of less than 5,000 votes in 2000.

As Kerry shook hands with voters behind a rope line in Monroe, Wis., he approached a small group of Bush supporters with a homemade sign that read "No flip-flops in the White House" and had a red pair of the plastic shoes attached to it.

A Kerry aide saw the sign just as the candidate was about to shake the protesters' hands and, with a whisper in his ear, guided him away just before there could have been a confrontation.

ROTFLMAO!!! Oh, yeah... there's the big, brave "war hero" we'll all be reading so much more about in the weeks to come, once UNFIT FOR COMMAND finally hits the streets. Somebody photoshop this girlyman into a nice floral print sundress or something, please! :)

Isn't this an interesting contrast?

In Shullsburg, Wis., Kerry's bus stopped so he could greet some well-wishers along the road, and a man asked Kerry about his vote against funding body armor for U.S. troops. Kerry says the charge was a distortion of his record.

"It's killing you in this area," the man said.

Kerry moved on to shake more hands, but turned back and told him, "I'd never leave those troops without their body armor, you know that."

Heheheh. Mr. FlipFlop strikes again.

NO, IT'S NOT.

"...Bush supporters with a homemade sign that read 'No flip-flops in the White House' and had a red pair of the plastic shoes attached to it."

His handlers should have let one of the GWB supporters smack him with one of the flip flops. He could claim it as an injury sustained in combat and get another Purple Heart for it.

[EggsAckley]

Kerry seems to believe that if HE says someone is mistaken, it's simply true. Kind of like a kid covering his eyes believing if HE can't see anybody, then THEY can't see him.

What a loser!

The guy on the right knows what to do with corn.

LOL.......Red white and blue - someone tell sKerry these colors don't run!

Changing with the Wind
Sung to Blowing in the Wind

How many times must he flip flop and flip,
Before he takes a firm stand?
How many lies must he tell about Nam,
Before we all call his hand?
How many times can he vote pro and con,
Before he is totally canned?
His answer my friend, is changing with the wind.
His answer is changing with the wind.
How many times will he say George Bush lied,
Before he tells us a fact?
How many times must I hear him drone on,
And still my ears stay intact?
How many deaths did he cause there in Nam,
With all his appeasements at home?
The answer and trend, John Kerry's not our friend,
The answer's John Kerry's not our friend.
How many terms could John Kerry serve,
Before America's gone?
How many days before he would cave in,
Afraid to protect our home?
How many weeks till he gave us away,
And let the UN take the throne?
The answer my friend, we'd twist in the wind,
The answer is we'd twist in the wind.

Kerry: What are these things?

[bannie]

You're right...his current claim is the distortion.

[Coop]

Why not? It usually worked for Clinton.

Uh, I'm sorry Senator but I don't think there's any gray area in this question--you either voted for it or against it. According to the OFFICIAL record, you voted against it! (That is unless those evil Republicans have altered the record...hmmm, that would make it Bush's fault.)

[IH8DEMS]

Keery should take those ears of corn and "SHOVE IT."

[GraceCoolidge]

And how in the heck would we "know that"? Oh, right, because he was in Vietnam. The fact that he voted against the body armor (after a long list of other votes against military funding) isn't relevant, right?

[OldFriend]

Oh, if you have ever gotten to eat an ear of corn just picked you KNOW how delicious it is!

[longtermmemmory]

The difference between committed and involved.

Kerry is "involved" to get votes.

Bush is committed to earn votes.

[bobo1]

How uncouth. Our president eating corn on the cob just like an average person. I suppose he actually enjoys a bowl of chili every once in a while.

Blessings, Bobo

Kent,
Whenever I see your name, I can not help but pity you! I grew up in Northwest Washington, and remember the days when it was conservative. Hate to say it, but Bill Gates brought in all the california nutcakes who ruined the great state.

Anyway, my comment about Bush, is that he needs to remind farmers that he pushed through tax reform that removed the death tax, so that farms can be passed on to the next generation and agriculture land will not be sold to developers. He also reformed the capitol gains taxes so that more people can keep more of their profits from sales of their property!

Kerry has said that he will roll back both of these taxes, which can only hurt farmers!
