Kerry was supposed to be there at noon, he ended up being 50 minutes late. By then, we had been told by some of Tacoma’s finest that Kerry was going to come right by on the main street at the end of the side street we were on, so we moved down there and lined both sides of the street with our huge signs and people waving flags. When his entourage arrived, he drove RIGHT THROUGH OUR GAUNTLET. When he came around the corner and saw us, he was clearly seen in his SUV (yes, he was in an SUV) immediately turning and ducking his head so as not to see us. Coward.
Several of the vehicles in the entourage had signs in them saying Press Pool. In one of them the passenger in the front seat had his window down and I saw him flip us off. Another person said they heard him yell FU as well. Nope, no media bias here folks, nothing to see.
"...he ended up being 50 minutes late."
From what I've read, he seems to be another Clinton in this regard (among many others). If he can't plan to be someplace on time, how does he think he can lead a nation?
Nixon had his V Victory sign. I guess the middle finger is the symbol of Kerry and his supporters this election. Sheesh.
