Not only was Kerry's comments an insult to our military and their families, it was also a huge dig (unreported) at anyone who decides to forego college and enter the workplace out of high school. In effect, "Don't go to college, and your stupid." Doesn't look like the Democrat 2004 standard-bearer is working hard for the "working man," does it?
Sounds a bit elitist, doesn't it? Every Dem candidate should be asked to tell Kerry to apologize not only to soldiers, but to every blue-collor worker in America

That's what I've been saying. Kerry is supposed to be a supreme orator, on par with Slick Willie himself! And has anyone else besides me checked out the people behind the Flip Flopper when he said that? There was one girl who was sort of grinning and looking around like she was thinking "did he just say what I think he said?"
APOLOGIZE??? He will apologize to 'no one'!!!! It would be beneath him to do that? Remember, this is King John we are talking about here.....
BTW, where are all of the democrats thoughts on JF'nK's remark? Obviously they all agree with him?????
He tried that stunt before. Didn't work for him. So, Kerry came up with another plan after scheming with Uncle Teddy one night...
.... And that's how he became a senator.
Love your new tagline!!!! I can see photos of troops with huge banners of "Stuck in Iraq" circulating the globe as fast as they can get made. Kerry revealed what the libs think about all of your missions in Iraq.
And I would be wealthy too if I had a nickel for the misplaced apostrophes and misused "loose" and "lose" that I refrain from "correcting".
Stay safe and keep posting on FR.
And your not a copy-editor, either.
I didn't realize it, but there is a thread running on this issue. Just in case you hadn't seen it, here is the link. Also, our Senator ripped him as well, in the lower thread.
Heads Up! All Scheduled Kerry Functions for 11/1/06 canceled
it's like hypo-Aspberger's Syndrome
@@@@@
I agree with you. As an amateur of neuropathology study, I think that is the best explanation of Kerry's inablilty to comprehend how he comes across to people.

I should have added a sarcasm tag. Didn't think I needed to do so to a freeper with Texas in her name.
Of course W was in the military!!!
Oh, ok then. Maybe it's too early this morning, but I wasn't sure what you meant. Sorry for misunderstanding
Harold Ford Jr. was just on the radio praising J. Kerry.
This fool is all over the place.
What he meant to say was, "If you don't study, and don't marry multimillionaries, then you go to Iraq".
We're just too stupid to get it!
And he's right, I just don't get windsurfing in flowered spandex. Call me a dumb peasant.
The assertion he was referring to Bush makes no sense.
Bush did go to college - where he earned higher marks than Kerry did. Bush went beyond that and earned a Master's degree - both degrees from Ivy League schools.
No....Kerry was referring to the kids he was speaking to.
He was telling them if they didn't do their work and go to college, they would get stuck in Iraq like the poor dumb suckers who over there now.
It is the gift that keeps on giving. The Dems are scared to death. The ship has a giant hole in it and it is about to sink.
The Dems need to continue to dig their heels in and not apologize and this story will last for 6 more days. It is fun to see these guys self destruct.
collar = collar
CC ;-)
Especially given the fact that Kerry's grades were NOT ANY BETTER than Bush's--and actually worse in most cases!
Given that FACT--his lame and pathetic attempt to lie his way out of this one is even MORE patronizing and MORE insulting.
How in the world do you construe Kerry's comment into a criticism of President Bush??
He was speaking to mostly students at a rally about education.
In essence, he was repeating the cliche that, 'stay in school Johnny and Suzie, or else you could end up sweeping floors.'
It is a point many Democratic leaders have made over the years, and it STILL surfaces from time to time, especially from the mouths of so-called minority Dem-libs who just love to claim that "under Republican leadership", people today have no other choice economically but to join the military.
The MSM all thinks exactly like Kerry or they wouldn't be carrying his lie for him.
