Testy Kerry dashes from reporters, hides in private digs

What I really want to know is this:

When his name was called for roll call on the Senate floor that day, did he stand up, give that snappy salute of his, and announce that he's "reporting for duty"??

[Alex Murphy]

``Sen. Kerry's going to find his own [h]ole,'' Reid (D-Nev.) said at a press conference.

Translation: We're not assigning him any important responsibilities. He's going to have to make up his own. We think he's a loser, too.

[Taliesan]

He had to spend the day learning his way around the building again, since he hasn't seen it in a year.

[NonValueAdded]

Hey, Hey, Ho, Ho ... Kerry, SIGN THE ONE-EIGHT-OH

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

I will be 65 December 2, I might be your senior.:)

"he could not answer how it felt to be back because he was busy with ``stuff,'' "

Cleaning cobwebs off his desk and looking for his computer password.

[Mo1]

Sooooo how long does he think he can run from the press and refuse to answer questions?

[cajungirl]

Kerry has now gone back to being the nasty jerk he always was.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

"Kerry attended a (MOURNING) meeting at which Senate Democrats..." That's better!

"Former running mate Sen. John Edwards did speak at the luncheon, encouraging his colleagues to find a way to let voters in "red" states know that Democrats are on their side." OH, THAT'S RICH!

We DID dodge a bullet! I am SO thankful and grateful to President Bush, Karl Rove and all of us Red Staters! Wa-Hoo! Still doin' a Happy Dance every morning!

---Man alive---

Texas? Louisiana?

Nope. I'm one of the 45% or so who live in Massachusetts who voted for Bush. I probably can't stand Kerry than most, having him as a Senator for the last 20 years.

I knew he was a loser before you did, nananananana. ;)

[shezza]

Geez, you dumb reporters. It takes a great deal of time in a hideaway office to count that $45,000,000 left over in campaign contributions that never got spent.

"Seven thousand four hundred sixty-seven, Seven thousand four hundred sixty-eight, Seven thousand four --

[TheForceOfOne]

He came to work? How out of character. I guess he saw his batting average which is way below the Mendoza Line.

Vote this traitor out of office!

[LibSnubber]

This loser couldn't take a "cool" picture even if his life depended on it.

And being the true flip-flopper he is, he actually said "I'm not opening any doors, I'm not shutting any doors."

[floozy22]

Well at least the poor guy can get his manicures and $200 haricuts now without the whole world knowing. (humor)

[quack]

"I'm John Kerry and I'm dashing from duty.(Like I have for the last 20 years)"

[Polyxene]

I'm surprised he could find his office -- probably overgrown with cobwebs! I give him a week, then Ketchupman will be back to his usual no-show self. He doesn't have the self-discipline to stay on task very long. He likes to party and play with his toys too much.

[cspackler]

He hasn't "worked on legislation" in the 20 years he's been a Senator, why would we beleive that he'd start now?

[Arrowhead1952]

Former Kerry running mate Sen. John Edwards did speak at the luncheon, encouraging his colleagues to find a way to let voters in ``red'' states know that Democrats are on their side.

BULL. There is no dumbocRAT on my side. This guy is so full of it.

[tiki]

Don't you know, he has "a plan"!
