The Real John Kerry Emerges via Newsweek Article...read his comments about his missing hairbrush
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6414892/site/newsweek/ ^ | 11/05/04 | Newsweek

The morning after the Feb. 3 primaries, which vaulted Kerry into a virtual-ly insurmountable lead, the candidate was fuming over his missing hairbrush. He and his aides were riding in a van on the way to a Time magazine cover-photo shoot. Nicholson had left the hairbrush behind. "Sir, I don't have it," he said, after rummaging in the bags. "Marvin, f---!" Kerry said. The press secretary, David Wade, offered his brush. "I'm not using Wade's brush," the long-faced senator pouted. "Marvin, f---, it's my Time photo shoot."

Nicholson was having a bad day. Breakfast had been late and rushed and not quite right for the senator. In the van, Kerry was working his cell phone and heard the beep signaling that the phone was running out of juice. "Marvin, charger," he said without turning around. "Sorry, I don't have it," said Nicholson, who was sitting in the rear of the van. Now Kerry turned around. "I'm running this campaign myself," he said, looking at Nicholson and the other aides. "I get myself breakfast. I get myself hairbrushes. I get myself my cell-phone charger. It's pretty amazing." In silent frustration, Nicholson helplessly punched the car seat.

This story reminds me of one of my close encounters of the political kind with a former (democrat, naturally) mayor of Dayton, Ohio who at the time was our lieutenant governor. An absolute insufferable pr**k. The governor at the time, Dick Celeste, was also a dem but a pretty nice guy. His wife, however, Dagmar (no joke) was someone who may well have been the cloning source for Theresa Kerry.

Get over yourself.
Kerry is news - he's a filthy Commie Pig who almost grabbed the reins of the most powerful country in the world.
He's news, alright. And everyone connected to him should be reviewed again, as well.

Kerry was happy to be slogging up mountains and snowboarding down icy chutes, but he collided with a clumsy Secret Service man and told him off in crude language. A couple of reporters, from ABC and The Boston Globe, were skiing nearby and publicized the incident.

No bias here--nope, not a bit.

"KERRY" is a REPRESENTATIVE of the Democrat PARTY....who are our OPPONENTS....we'll debrief here if we so like....HE COULD HAVE BEEN PRESIDENT....and this is a Window into HIS personality that proves what idiots many of those FOLLOWING him were, also. Thankfully, a majority of American's caught on to him, no thanks to the HAS BEEN MEDIA who now want to sell their magazines telling us what he was REALLY like.

Is there any evidence that there is anything that Kerry has ever run well in his life other than Massachusetts campaigns and gigolo operations, windsurfing boards and skis? He does not appear to have been qualified to run the country in any way. Even Dean had more qualifications.

he didn't get SS protection till after he sewed up the nomination ... so this had to come from insiders. I'm going to assume Marvin was there fro the very beginning, then as JFn rose up the food chain, Marvin got left behind. Hope he appreciates how very lucky he is! Lucky as the rest of us

Be fair, folks. Evan Thomas told Laura Ingraham this morning that these stories were produced by a completely separate set of reporters that they assigned to each campaign. They are not the regular campaign beat reporters. The Newsweek editors do not see any of it until they turn in their stories just before Election Day. They tell the campaigns that none of the information will be reported until after the election; that's the only way they get this kind of access. So don't blame Newsweek or the rest of the MSM for "keeping this stuff away from the people."

The whole tone of this article is so fawning....they don't even seem to realize these are negatives.

Is this supposed to be an objective story, or excerpts from a partisan tome set to come out in time for the inauguration? I can't believe the way the author refers to the Bush campaign as if they were a bunch of piranha and the Kerry campaign was the Vatican council.

"Who is going to wipe my ass, I am running is campaign by myself!", sKerry said, which the campaign aid replied, "use your hand A$$#0!E"

FOR THE RECORD: I made this up.

The heck I won't! :) That rag did a deal with the devil, promising the campaigns they'd keep their yaps shut in return for access. Well, I don't care about the dang mag's post election issue. Their sales ain't my problem. I want to know this stuff before an election, not after. The only use for this info now is to make money for the darn mag. Some reporters they've got if the only way that they can get the skinny on a campaign is by agreeing to shut up in advance. Heaven forbid they do a little, or a lotta, legwork. Screw Newsweek and its special edition.
