Windsurfing in the Persian Gulf
WHY JOHN KERRY IS DANGEROUS FOR AMERICA
Similarly, Kerry's statements about the Iraq War hint at cognitive and ethical, if not corporeal, absence; they tell us more about John Kerry than simply what his Iraq-War politics may be.
WINDSUCKER
Windsurfing, like war, transcends the particular in its revelations about John Kerry. Although windsurfing is delicious metaphor--witness the recent Bush-Cheney ad--windsurfing in its most literal, technical sense is what best exposes Kerry for what he is--a wussy, opportunistic fraud.
RIGGED
Kerry's gear is the dead giveaway.
Kerry sails on what boardheads call "light air,"--one just cannot escape the metaphors here-- i.e., a gigantic sail estimated at 11 square meters, and a humongous board providing redundant flotation.
According to expert windsurfer, Paul Kotik:
A windsurfer friend of mine, Rod, adds this observation, "Long boards typically have something called a centerboard or a daggerboard which acts as a fulcrum for turning large boards like [Kerry's]. Daggerboards are for total weenies."
Visible in Kerry's Nantucket windsurfing photo-op video is what appears to be evidence of a daggerboard--the knob on top of the board that controls dagger position.
Rod continues, "Up-hauling is another weenie windsurf situation. If the wind is so light that you stand on top of the board and pull the mast up out of the water to begin sailing, there is very little wind. Water starting is... what keeps most people out of the experienced ranks... It is the only way to start in high wind/deep water conditions."
Conversely, according to Rod, some wind is required in a water start. "In a water start, you are not standing on anything, just floating in deep water. You 'fly' the sail, controlling it just inches above the your head and the water, moving your feet onto the board; the sailor pops the sail up filling it with wind, which pulls you up onto the board in one maneuver and propels the board forward."
Kerry's gigantic sail suggests a deliberate wind-avoidance strategy and, hence, an up-hauling, not water-starting, boarding technique scenario. Indeed, given Kerry's reflexive avoidance of high wind/deep water conditions over the years, weenie up-hauling is the only credible scenario.

Where is JAWS when you need him.
And their words will hang them.
America deserves to see these. So much!
Leno and Letterman should play um, as well! They would have people rolling in the aisles!
YOU GO GIRL!
And as to the thread running today about whether or not Kerry was at the signing (surrender) of the Kuwait War...lol...well, that remains a top level secret. My guess...he was in the AREA, with the intent of being there for the future historical photos, so that he could embellish his presidential resume, lol, but that General S., knowing full well that Kerry voted AGAINST that war, was NOT ABOUT to let that egoistical, arrogant, photo-op hound anywhere near that signing....so Kerry was probably in a fancy bar somewhere in Kuwait, furious and confused, as men like kerry who do not know themselves, always are.
Hey great comments! How ever I have Windsurfed in 4 to 64 mph wind used all kinds of equipment and will tell you 11 square meter sails are not for pussy's. Yes wide boards 35 inches wide make this sport easy.
With that said John Kerry likes windsurfing and should stick to windsurfing since he is a communist of the worst kind!!
If he had his way we would not have the extra $700 to $4000 dollars we need to enjoy our sport!
Windsurfers and Mountain Bikers for BUSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
see what you started?! ;)
(thx for the heads up.)
I think Kerry's Easter in Iraq is worse than what we first thought. He voted against the war, then showed up as soon as it was safe and took credit for it.
bump!
(Sort of like what he did with his swift boat, retreating and returning for Rassmann only when he determined it was safe.)
One of the main problems Liberals have with running campaigns, let alone Wars and Presidencies; is they are incapable of delegating. They have been programed to believe that the Centralized Planning Model is the only way to organize. This is why they believe that the Gummit is better at spending our money than we are. When they become Candidates for a national office like President they cannot take advice and have their hands on everything. The reports of Yaaaawn writing his own boring run-on speeches is proof of that weakness.
No political advisor equipped with two firing brain cells would have told Yaaaaawn to go out and attack the Prime Minister of Iraq. This is a truly historic disgrace of epic proportions. Kerry went out on his own because the PM gave him a minor shot about Yaaaawn always downplaying our successes and turning them into failures to the benefit of our enemies. In response Kerry goes nuts and accuses the Leader of a newly born Country a liar...Monumental!! Nobody on that Rubber Bus would have suggested anybody do this. Only the knee-jerk; heavy on the jerk, main Candidate.
Prime Minister Allawi is a man of integrity and bravery that can is matched by very few men in World History. This man defied Saddamn and received an axe to the head. He is number 1 on the Terrorist hit parade in a country filled with terrorist scum attracted like moths to a zapper. His death will bring a month long celebration in this turd century pit, and Kerry has the nerve to degrade and disrespect this hero? This amounts to calling Lech Walesa or the Pope lying cowards in Poland during the Soviet crackdown.
How can he do this utterly despicable action. Easy, he hates America and its closest allies! During Vietnam, which is his entirety; he called the South Vietnamese Govt a puppet of the United States. He vilified and degraded that Govt when we were winning the war while he professed the Communists in N. Vietnam the liberators and freedom fighters. The liberators ended up murdering over 10 million civilians after Kerry coerced "Peace with Honor". So attacking Iraqs new Govt is his first step. His strategy is to disgrace the bravery of the countrys interim officials who are being murdered for taking their stand for Freedom.
His next step in Vietnam was to attack our soldiers after he declared the newly formed Govt illegitimate. He declared the war illegal and the wrong war, at the wrong time in the wrong place. If the war is wrong than it follows that our soldiers are fighting the wrong war. This is his seditious strategy and why he was called a traitor then, and is a traitor now. And yes Yaaaawn we are questioning your patriotism, which is what you do to people who are betraying their country for their own benefit.
If this man will not stand shoulder to shoulder to a statuesque MAN like Allawi than who will he stand with. Allawi is the George Washington of Iraq. The only difference was Washington had to fight the British and Benedict Arnold, while Allawi has to fight barbaric terrorists from a dozen neighboring scorpion nests. Kerry doesnt understand the honor and history of freeing 25 million people from a tyrant who had already killed nearly a half million people, and he will never will. The leaders John Kerry has stood shoulder to shoulder were Ho Chi Min 10 million murders, Lenin-Gorbachev 50 million murders, Mao Tse Tung 70 million murders, Fidel Castro 1 million murders, Daniel Ortega 20,000 murders, Pol Pots Khmer Rouge 5 million murders, Yasser Arafat 1000s of murders. John Kerrys respected leaders do have a pattern which helps explain his admiration for Saddamns killing fields.
Prime Minister Allawi just doesnt have the numbers it takes for Yaaaawn Cut and Run Kerrys respect.
Pray for W and Our Troops
Excellent analysis!
You nailed it.
thanks!
I'm not going to comment on Kerry's physical courage. But he has absolutely no political courage, and that's been demonstrated time after time.
Most Freepers remember the dire predictions before the current Iraq war (not to mention the dire predictions before Gulf War I). Even considering the long drawn out nature of the war, it has been nothing like what ws predicted by the dems.

thx :)

WINDSURFER WATERLOO
why the surfboard--not the snowboard--is (to mix war metaphors) Kerry's Achilles' heel
THE HOT DEBATE OVER THE WINDSURFING AD [09/23 11:54 AM] There is apparently much debate about the windsurfing ad over at the Corner. Here's the CNN summary of the charges and countercharges so far: Underscoring the Bush attacks was a new television ad showing Kerry windsurfing to the strains of the "Blue Danube" waltz. A narrator reads a list of what the Bush campaign contends are the senator's vacillating positions on the Iraq war, education and Medicare. Thought one: There's a quick and easy way that Kerry can stop the ads that are calling him a flip-flopper: Stop flip-flopping. Thought two: If you don't want the Bush campaign to run ads featuring footage of John Kerry windsurfing, stop inviting television crews to record Kerry windsurfing. Thought three: If the ad is so "juvenile and tasteless", why does the new Kerry ad not show the picture of John Kerry windsurfing? Could this be because some focus group somewhere concluded that windsurfing looks like a pastime of the idle rich? Your humble correspondent wonders if the Blue Danube waltz was the wrong music for the commercial. Maybe Doris Day/Mari Wilson/Lila Downs "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps": You only tell me 'Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps.' UPDATE: About a billion Kerry Spot readers point out that the Kerry campaign is complaining about a lack of seriousness right after their man has done interviews with Jon Stewart, David Letterman, Dr. Phil, and Regis.
