John F. Kerry - how can we miss him when he won’t go away?
A lot of people in both parties are hoping that America’s Gigolo will run for president again in 2008 rather than seek re-election to the Senate.
Kerry would inevitably lose and be forced to retire to private life, after which Mama T would soon boot him out of all six of her first husband’s trust fund’s mansions.
The next time we would see Kerry he’d be back to sleeping in his old Bob Brest Buick.
That would be a happy ending, to be sure. Too bad it’s not in the cards. The problem is, the political calendar.
Here’s how it works: Iowa caucuses, January 2008. New Hampshire primary, February 2008. Can we agree that Liveshot is not going to win either? So it’s over. So far, so good. But here’s the hitch: After he’s elminated, he has until May to decide whether he’s going to run for a fifth term in the Senate.
What do you think he’ll do?
But no one will speak truth to power, as he likes to say. None of his coatholders dare tell the Gigolo that the gig is up. Why else would Rupert Murdoch suck up to Hillary Clinton? Why else would Bill Clinton sign to write a new book that’ll be coming out in 2008?
It’s hard to remember now, but Kerry first won an election with Mike Dukakis, and talk about the gift that keeps on giving - yesterday’s newspaper read like a bad acid flashback to the worst of the Dukakis era.
A Dukakis judge - Peter Agnes - brooms a drunken driving case, giving the boozed-up killer of a 4-year-old boy 18 months in the slammer.
Two Dukakoid political operatives - Paul Pezzella and Paul Giorgio - are charged with voter fraud in Worcester.
The state Senate again refuses to cut the 1989 Dukakis tax increase it promised to rescind all those years ago. And the Town Meeting in Brookline - the Duke’s hometown - considers a resolution demanding the impeachment of George Bush. The more things change . . .
Even now, the Duke’s other legacy, John Kerry, moves restlessly through the airports of America, and the indignant question echoes through the land: “Do you know who I am?”
Here’s a recent airport incident recounted to me by Col. David Hunt, U.S. Army (ret.), the best-selling author and Fox News analyst.
It was a Sunday afternoon about a month ago in D.C. that Hunt was returning from a convention, and Kerry was returning from, what else, a liveshot. Everybody was standing in line, waiting their turn to board the airline. Every passenger but one, that is.....
I'm wondering why he is flying commercial. All that money and he doesn't have his own plane? Is Mama punishing him for not winning or something?
ROFL..............love that adjective.:)
"I think he's spitting teeth!!"
Could be "the spitballs" Zell Miller referred to when talking about how skerry would fight terrorism. Ya think?
Yes, they are "the spitballs", lol.
I was just teasing because bitt had mentioned the botox and fixed up teeth in another post!!
My little jokes always go over like a lead balloon!!
John Kerry isn't the only one who doesn't like to wait his turn...
Picture this: It's Labor Day 2003 at the airport in Little Rock, Arkansas. I had just flown from Las Vegas, and was waiting to continue on to BWI, but the second leg of the journey was delayed because of thunderstorms in Maryland. Everyone had left the plane in search of food (Southwest only gives you a tiny bag of pretzels). Because it was a holiday, the only food vendor in the airport that was open was a Pizza Hut/Burger King. I joined a line that seemed miles long. About fifteen or twenty minutes elapsed, and I had almost reached the beginning of the counter.
All of the sudden, I heard a voice that sounded strangely familiar say, "So where's the back of the line around here? Heh heh heh!" The owner of the voice blatantly planted himself right in front of me. It was.... the Perfumed Prince, in the flesh, General Wesley Clark.
I was pretty speechless. I turned around and glanced at the guy behind me, with an expression of "WTF?!"
He gave me a knowing look and mouthed the word, "democrat".
At least he's MA's SFL. They can keep him. At our SFL, Ted Stevens, does a lot for Alaska. And he does it without embarrassing us.
Howie Carr kills me. I rarely miss his radio show.
"My little jokes always go over like a lead balloon!!"
Not true. No lead, no balloon. If I hadn't been in such a rush, I would've read what you were referring to.
Thanks RFF!
ROTFLOL!! "... fake but accurate"
Oh my, gotta love it!!
Dukakis-boy Peter Agnes ... gives boozed-up killer of a 4-year-old boy 18 months in the slammer.
Dukakis-boys are charged with voter fraud in Worcester.
The only hope for the Massholes, most of whom think Kerry is Kennedy, and vice-versa, an illusion assiduously fostered by by Kerry, is the development of an aerially applied psychotropic agent that will allow them to identify their own self-interest in November. Look for Kerry to go all out to hold his seat in 2008, finally spending that $15 Million or so he stashed after the last election. It's his, not Heinz money. Hillary and Bill will help and he'll stay out of the primary... if he's smart as Massholes obviously think he is.
The only interesting question in Massachusetts:
'IZZAT SO?' ...ping
Thanks for the ping, bitt!

(Please FReepmail if you want on, or off, this list. I certainly have no desire to increase anyone’s stress-level. Thanks!!!)
Thanks for the ping Seadog Bytes.
Kerry reminds me of of a cardboard man with plastic parts.
The guy just doesn't connect with reality.
Geez ... awfully harsh, don't ya think?
Bump. (Good 'un.)
