[Tenacious 1]

Here is the original version of Kerry's apology:

"I am sorry that members or our military are not smart enough to recognize what I meant by my joke. I was making fun of the president. I apologize that our soldiers to not possess the intellectual where with all to understand my superior joke telling prowess."

"...and if any member of our military was offended by my comments it is proabably because of a lack of education."
