FORT DODGE, Iowa (AP) -- Vice President Dick Cheney said Sunday that Sen. John Kerry's first response to Osama bin Laden's new videotape was to take a poll to find out what he should say about it.
A spokesman for Kerry's campaign did not deny polling on the bin Laden videotape, but suggested President Bush has done so. Bush's campaign strategist denied asking any poll questions about the al-Qaida terrorist.
"The thing that I find amazing about it is that John Kerry's first response was to go conduct a poll," Cheney told supporters in Iowa. "He went into the field ... to find out what he should say about this tape of Osama bin Laden."
"It's as though he doesn't know what he believes until he has to go and check the polls, his finger in the air, to see which way the wind is blowing and then he'll make a decision," said the vice president, who offered no evidence to back up his claim. "George Bush doesn't need a poll to know what he believes, especially about Osama bin Laden."

Notice how they always turn around and say the President did it first -- that is Bravo Sierra. Kerry is despicable and so is everyone around him.

Of course he did...Kerry's motto is "How does this affect me personally?" It's been his mantra since the early 70's...

Is this why Kerry is claiming to be "outraged" at Bin Laden?
Did his poll tell him to feign outrage?

the vice president, who offered no evidence to back up his claim. How about YOUR OWN FREAKIN' AP STORY of the "Conference Call" between the Kerry advisors bragging about their "push poll" showing Kerry winning on this issue by double digits?

Vice President Dick Cheney said Sunday that Sen. John Kerry's first response to Osama bin Laden's new videotape was to take a poll to find out what he should say about it. Yes, but did Kerry take a Global Test?
Kerry's such a limp-wristed fop, I don't think he even goes to the bathroom without first asking permission.
