IT WAS LATE, KERRY SAID, REFERRING TO NOON

IT WAS LATE, KERRY SAID, REFERRING TO NOON [09/29 08:52 AM]

The good news is John Kerry did an interview on Good Morning America, and he was asked about his "I voted for it before I voted against it" comment.

Kerry responded, "No, it wasn’t classic at all. It just was a very inarticulate way of saying something, and I had one of those inarticulate moments late in the evening when I was dead tired in the primaries and I didn't say something very clearly."

Hey, it happens! No big deal. Everybody has made a comment that doesn't make sense late at night... except...

“‘I actually did vote for his $87 billion, before I voted against it,’ [Kerry] told a group of veterans at a noontime appearance at Marshall University. He went on to explain that he preliminarily backed the request, so long as it was financed not by deficit spending but with a tax surcharge on the wealthy that Bush opposed.”

As Bush spokesman Steve Schmidt suggested, maybe his watch was on Paris time.

You know, This could point out yet another serious flaw with this goofy candidate. This actually means that he inadvertently ADMITTED that he can't think very well late at night!!! Let alone at noon time!!!

Let's not forget his penchant for late-night strolls (i.e., sleepwalking). Can his sleepwalking state be recognized by aides who might otherwise carry out his unconscious commands?

I'll say! I've been corrected about six times on this thread, as if I really care what frigging time it is in France! 8-)

The light from the tanning booth that morning made it seem like it was late evening , later then, or now , whatever. Don't believe what I say, its forged, but believe the gist of the story I tell you. The Orangeman just keeps on giving.

Of course there's always that gigantic fiery ball in the sky to remind him that it's DAYTIME. LOL

Would that be the same gigantic firey ball that turned him a deep shade of orange on a cloudy autumn day?

I'm really surprised they didn't use that line! He could have gotten Rasmussen or whoever to vouch for him!

Bwahahah...he's using the Clinton excuse for saying that US taxpayers were over-taxed in an appearance in Houston during his presidency. The only difference is...Clinton really was giving his speech at night, not at high noon. Kerry is just pathetic. I can scarcely wait for tomorrow night's debate.

Kerry is so inept. How does he even run his Senate Office? Oh, I forgot, he never goes to work any more! How could he manage a real job? Does he seriously think that he has the management skills to run the country?

This man could possibly be the worst liar I have EVER seen.

And that's leaving aside the fact that he is admitting that when he is TIRED he may/does make faulty statements.

Just what we need in the Oval Office!

The folks at Toy's (and Canonsburg in general) are 180 degrees from the elitist Kerry:

Flood victims left wondering where to turn

Sunday, September 26, 2004

By David Templeton, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

During devastating flooding in Houston, Jerry "Jeep" Kohn plowed his red Jeep through swirling waters and drove up his front steps to rescue his wife and daughter, who were standing waist-deep on the porch.

Neither Kohn nor his wife, Mary Bobbette, can swim, so Jeep in his Jeep had to take quick action. Mary and daughter Jerrica, 15, hopped in as Kohn backed down, revved his Jeep in reverse to high ground before the engine started sputtering and the red engine light came on.

The rescue was a success.

The flood destroyed the Kohns' East McNutt Street home, its contents, save for a collection of Barbie dolls and baseball cards, and five family vehicles.

[Snip: notes re impact of Hurrican Ivan in PA area]

The Kohns face tough times with nothing left but the clothes they're wearing. Toy's My Way Cafe in Canonsburg is collecting donations to help the Kohns. Other community funds are collecting money for flood victims.

I'm sure the folks at Toy's really appreciated being used as a prop for the Kerry campaign.

After reading that quote of him speaking, I feel a little less apprehensive about the debates.

Let's hope he's REAL tired on Thursday evening...really tired and really, really, orange.

Someone should tell him that as president, he'll get less sleep and have more stress and presure than during any primary season, so what happens if he's president (perish the thought) and he botches some delicate negotiation with a world leader because he's so tired.

He's just counting on MSM to give him cover.

Rush is pointing this fact out now too. His staff said it was in the afternoon.

sKerry's staff has to make a daily run to WalMart to buy new underwear for the candidate. Happens when one's pants are continually on fire.
