If this man has made a more inappropriate or boneheaded remark I'd love to see it.
exactly what I was thinking...
***.....a pro-President Bush classmate after he reportedly said only gays would support Sen. John Kerry.***
That kid was wrong in making that statement. He should have included IDIOTS as well as gays. =P
really? That doesn't suprise me that the AP gave an "abbreviated" version
Drudge's initial reports said that the Kerry-supporting kids said Bush supporters were "gay." The Bush kid responded that Kerry believed in gay marriage, so people who vote for him must be gay.
Wonder how that clarification got left out of CNN's story.
I had the Dean at Kutztown University some years ago remark to me in an interview "I think MORE people should be on Welfare!"
what? that is one f the most idiotic uneducated remarks I have ever heard.
becuase it's CNN they leave most details out...esp about anything that has to do with Pres Bush
It's not a crime-merely Civil disobedience. (sarcasm)
The party of diversity and tolerance strikes again.
So some gay kid attacked a Bush supporter and of course being a lib he needed to use a weapon or else he would of gotten his A$$whooped.
EXACTLY!
And terrorists
Good to know can I get a link to the original story.
That is despicable distortion by the AP as well. Left-wing media? What left wing media?
He said it with a wildly enthusiastic I-know-you-agree-with-me look on his face and then declared that "There are more WHITE people on Welfare!"
Well, duh! There more Whites in the land, you moron, I thought to myself and decided then and there that there was no way I was joining the doctoral program at that school.
The SAINT PAUL PIONEER PRESS reported in morning editions: The argument began earlier in the day Thursday with a discussion about candidates the minors had supported for president, Backstrom said. The two victims supported President Bush.
"We were sitting in the computer room at school, and there was kind of a political debate," said Chad McKay of Arden Hills. "Some people said only *** people vote for Bush." Chad said the victim said "only *** people would vote for Kerry because he supports *** marriage."
It still is an ignorant remark, but in the context of the conversation being held I can see how a 17 year-old could say it.

Not relevant to the crime in any way.
This kid that got the beatdown said actually, only gays would vote for Kerry, since he supports gay marriage.
AHA, A HATE CRIME!!!! Why, President Kerry will see that this is punished to the full extent . . .
Oh, he was defeated . . . ooops . . .
The CNN report should mention that the Kerry supporters said "only gays would vote for Bush" before the Bush supporter said the "gays vote for Kerry" thing. Funny how that is missing in their 'objective' report!!!
