The caveat emperor

During an interview yesterday with Globe editorial writers and columnists, the former Democratic presidential nominee was asked if had signed Form SF 180, authorizing the Department of Defense to grant access to all his military records.
''I have signed it," Kerry said. Then, he added that his staff was ''still going through it" and ''very, very shortly, you will have a chance to see it." ........
After the interview, Kerry's communications director, David Wade, was asked to clarify when Kerry signed SF 180 and when public access would be granted. Kerry drifted over to join the conversation, immediately raising the confusion level. He did not answer the question of when he signed the form or when the entire record will be made public.
Several e-mails later, Wade conveyed the following information: On Friday, May 20, Kerry obtained a copy of Form 180 and signed it. ''The next step is to send it to the Navy, which will happen in the next few days. The Navy will then send out the records," e-mailed Wade......

He signed it before he didn't sign it.
Yet another John F'n Kerry F'n middle F'n position.
I signed the Form 180. I just haven't turned it in. Now for the next year, he'll go on about how he signed the form, and just confuse the issue.
Allow me to be the first.... WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO TURN IT IN, SENATOR KERRY!
We should all start faxing him the address of the Navy, or sending pre-addressed and pre-paid envelopes in the mail...

Well, now we know what Sandy Berger's been uo to...
rotfl ... two great minds
Hee hee! Good ones!
"Allow me to be the first.... WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO TURN IT IN, SENATOR KERRY!"
oh, that may never happen but atleast he can say he "signed it".
Maybe the signed form is in Sandy Berger's pants?
You know, he's so "absent minded". Don't you ever stuff forms in your pants? ;)

LOL! Gee, I wonder what there was for Jean Francois's staff to go through, though...
The important take-away from this article is that it was written by that shrieking leftist harpie Joan Venocchi.
That tells you right there that Kerry has lost whatever base he had, and has ZERO chance of winning the rat nomination.
Of course, they will have to 'sanitize' the released records. I doubt that the original DD214 will ever see the light of day.
Good to know that you can run for President and don't have to release your military records... as long as you have a D next to your name...
