After Staging Photo-Op 'Hunt,' Kerry Refuses to Carry His Own Bird
Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry said he bagged a goose on his Poland, Ohio swing state hunting trip Thursday, but his real target was the voters who may harbor doubts about him.
Kerry returned after a two hour hunting trip wearing a camouflage jacket and carrying a 12 gauge shotgun, but someone else carried the bird that he had shot.
'Im too lazy', Kerry joked. 'I'm still giddy over the Red Sox. It was hard to focus.'
Although he claims to be an avid hunter, Kerry has never joined the 315 member Congressional Sportmans Caucus.
John Kerry, [however] has a 100 percent rating from the radical animal rights group like PETA and the Fund for Animals.

Please take a moment of your time for some activism. Kerry has crapped all over his PETA/Animal Rights supporters by killing the geese today.
Send these folks an Email, or to any .edu address you might have in your address book.

Ditto that.
Beautiful. Just beautiful.
This is such a lying, lame excuse...it's so obvious, as many Freepers have stated...sKerry did NOT want to get caught on film carrying the goose; he probably didn't kill it either...just made it look like he did...this is NOT a good man.
Gee, I thought that Ohio Law required that all hunters must wear at least one piece of DAYGLO Orange!
(Maybe next week he'll "stage" a "Fox Hunt". Tally Ho!)
And no Geese.
He did that? Honest?
Kerry is so fake, it's pathetic.
Check this out. The AP had the Kerry Hunting article orignally titled: "Kerry Goes Hunting for Conservative Votes"
And now they've changed the title to: "Hunt Gives Voters Different Image of Kerry "

The articles I've read say none of the reporters SAW him shoot it.
Kerry proves himself to be an idiot once again.
And notice the red sox comment...
Slate, ever the libs' mouthpiece, tries to explain away Kerry's sports flubs:
.... The Eddie Yost story checked out with the man who conducted the interview, Boston sports radio host Eddie Andleman. But Andleman says the conversation took place "about 10 years ago," not in the recent past as Gammons implies. As far as the second flub, Kerry did invert and somewhat mangle (look for the second "News and Notes" item) the names of Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz in a speech delivered in Boston on July 12. But he did quickly catch the error, even repeating "Manny Ortez" in an incredulous tone as if to scold himself for making such a bonehead mistake. Still, when Kerry corrected himself he did mispronounce David Or-TEEZ as David Or-TEZZ. Panagopoulos hadn't heard Kerry make the gaffehe had only read about it in Gammons' column. When I played the clip for him, he said he still wasn't sure if Kerry was a true fanafter all, the guy's name is David Or-TEEZ. Slate
He'll kill for votes. He did it in Vietnam and he's doing it again.
Good grief; I don't even watch baseball and I can name some Red Sox players; Pudge Fisk, for one.
THAT should be a bumper sticker.
"John Kerry, he'll kill for your vote."
I want to see photos of him stripping and cleaing the bird.
I just called PETA and left them an outraged message and a plea to issue a very public statement about this.
This is just disgusting! He killed an innocent animal for nothing!
Yeah, and don't forget Doug Martinezvich.
