A bitter-sounding Sen. John Kerry dismissed the historic Iraqi election on Sunday, warning Americans not to "overhype" the watershed event."No one in the United States should try to overhype this election," Kerry told NBC's "Meet the Press." The failed presidential candidate questioned the historic referendum's legitimacy, saying, "It's hard to say that something is legitimate when a whole portion of the country can't vote and doesn't vote."
Kerry also pooh-poohed reports of a surprisingly high 72 percent turnout by Iraqi voters, insisting instead that the election has "gone as expected."
Asked if he thought Iraq was now less of a terrorist threat, Kerry at first said, "No, it's more. And, in fact, I believe the world is less safe today than it was two and a half years ago."
But he changed his answer moments later, after "Meet the Press" host Tim Russert pressed him on the bizarre claim.
"I'm glad Saddam Hussein is gone, and I've said that a hundred times," he insisted.
And we can do all things through that strength.
He won't sign the 180...but he will smear those who have.
Kerry should understand that he will never be president.

MR. RUSSERT: Would you sign Form 180?
SEN. KERRY: But everything, Tim...
MR. RUSSERT: Would you sign Form 180?
SEN. KERRY: Yes, I will. But everything that we put in it, Tim--everything we put in--I mean, everything that was out was a full documentation of all of the medical records, all of the fitness reports. And I'd call on those who have challenged me, let's see their records. I want to see the records of each of those people who have put up a challenge, because some of them have some serious questions in them, and it hasn't been appropriate...
MR. RUSSERT: So they should sign Form 180s for themselves as well?
SEN. KERRY: You bet.
Never. TeRAYza doesn't have the honesty to admit she's an addict and never will. And why should she? She has enough paid companions around her to allow her to remain addicted to whatever while covering for her, picking her up off the floor, keeping her out of the press.
I'm shocked that Tim Russert asked him the stuff below.
I guess Tim realizes that he needs to get some crediblity back after going in the hole for the dems like the rest of the MSM during the campaigns.
MR. RUSSERT: Our affiliate, Channel 7 in Boston, WHDH, and Suffolk University took a poll asking Massachusetts voters, "Should Kerry run for president in 2008?" Yes, 33; no, 59. And the man who runs the poll, David Paleologos, has said that--"`Massachusetts voters have built a presidential ceiling over John Kerry's head,' said David Paleologos, director of Suffolk's Political Research Center." Six out of 10 Massachusetts voters don't want you to run again. Why?
Kerry promised to release all his miliary papers. Someone should hold his feet to the fire. This guy does not do what he promises!
John Jacques Strap Effin Shove It Maria Teresa Thierstein Simoes Ferreira Kerry today was the a**hole we all knew he was.
He is a classless, pretentious cold sh*thead.

Kerry always was a joke, and it appears after Russert's exchange this morning, that the party might send Kerry the way of Algore.
How will we know if a Clinton political hit on Kerry is taking place?
I can't imagine her not being the Democratic nominee in 2008. If she is not, then the only way that can come to pass is if one of her fellow democrats begins a clandestine war against her in the next 24 months. How will we recognize that when it takes place?
You KNOW Hillary had to have gotten hold of Kerry's FBI file.
Indeed, I imagine she has already seen and perhaps organized very private information on all potential opposition to her candidacy - inside her party or not.
If Bush had lost the election, does anyone think that he would have been on "Meet the Liberal Press" this week? The only thing being overhyped is Kerry.
Kerry/Kennedy...just pathetic!
Because he was the alternative to W.
"Who cares about facts; you've got NewsMax!" :-(
I understand on quite a few of the ballots in Iraq the voters wrote in "not Kerry".
