From Max Cleland, in a press release sent out by Kerry's office:

I think people will remember John Kerry's press conference today as the moment we Democrats stopped once and forever accepting the disgraceful smears of Republicans. John Kerry showed our Party how to fight back with the truth…

John Kerry should apologize to no one for his criticism of the President and his broken policy in Iraq. George Bush is the one who owes our troops an apology. This is text book Republican campaign tactics.

And from a statement sent out by the Bob Corker campaign, becoming one of the first to try to hang Kerry around the neck of Democratic candidates:

The Corker for Senate campaign today called on Washington Congressman Harold Ford to either defend or denounce U.S. Senator John Kerry’s comment denigrating U.S. troops considering the fact he served as a National Co-Chair for the Massachusetts liberal’s 2004 presidential campaign, and because Ford just took $900,000 from the Democrat campaign committees – courtesy of a transfer from Kerry and his colleague, Senator Ted Kennedy.

“Bob Corker rejects John Kerry’s outrageous comments belittling the intelligence of our troops in Iraq, and Harold Ford’s silence on this matter leaves one to conclude he’s siding with Kerry,” charged Todd Womack, the Corker campaign Communications Director. “As one of Kerry’s strongest supporters in 2004, and having just taken Kerry’s campaign money to prop up his faltering candidacy, he has an obligation to speak out.”

Wow, if Mad Max Cleland has weighed in, his dear pal Cindy Sheehan can't be far behind! Just waiting for her to give some irate statement about how only she can speak for our military and their families and SHE absolves John "Vichy" Kerry of all ill intent. Mark my words, Cindy will weigh in at some point with a truly vicious attack on the evil Bush/Cheney cabal and a warm defense of Kerry.
