Thursday, August 05, 2004 Blogger nails Kerry on "Had I been reading to children" claim!

From RedState.org:

First, it's telling that Kerry is using Michael Moore's propaganda as a playbook in his campaign. This has a definite whiff of desperation about it.

Secondly, where exactly was John Kerry that morning when America was under attack, and what was he doing?

In an interview with Larry King on CNN, July 8, 2004,

http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0407/08/lkl.00.html

Sen. Kerry was asked where he was the morning of September 11th. Here is part of his response:

Kerry: "...And as I came in [to a meeting in Sen. Daschle's office], Barbara Boxer and Harry Reid were standing there, and we watched the second plane come in to the building. And we shortly thereafter sat down at the table and then we just realized nobody could think, and then boom, right behind us, we saw the cloud of explosion at the Pentagon..." (emphasis added).

It should be noted that the second plane hit the World Trade Center at 9:03 a.m., and the plane hit the Pentagon at 9:43 a.m. By Kerry's own words, he and his fellow senators sat there for forty minutes, realizing "nobody could think."

In other words: Sen. Kerry, who criticized President Bush for not rushing out of the Florida classroom for seven minutes, sat paralyzed with his colleagues for a full forty minutes. He is hardly in a position to criticize President Bush for "inaction."

********************************************************

Gotta love the Internet ... 20 years ago, Kerry's crap would have gone unchallenged.

A bunch of minor league Senators froze for 40 minutes, while the Commander in Chief, on whose shoulders the weight of the nation's grief and anger had just been thrust, kept his cool in a classroom full of children before bringing the war to the Jihadists ...

When GW was first notified, he was notified only that a plane had hit one of the towers. Nothing else was known at the time. In fact, it wasn't until the second plane hit that most people started to realize that something beyond accidental was going on. The aide to President Bush did not, as Kerry claims, whisper into GW's ear, "America is under attack."

Kerry cares nothing for facts. Like Clinton he'll spin any event to gain personal political power.
