Apology is not accepted! If Kerry truly wishes to apologies and believes what he had some gopher post on his website... then Kerry can go on National TV and apologies to the Men and Women in Uniform, to the families, to the Veterans and to the ones who have given their life for that jerk to be free.

[ArrogantBustard]

I sincerely regret that my words were misinterpreted to wrongly imply anything negative about those in uniform and I personally apologize to any service member, family member or American who was offended," Kerry said in a statement.

Bullcrap, Mr. Kerry. I don't believe a word of it.

It's time to resign, Mr. Kerry. You don't belong in the United States Senate.

"Reuters wants this over with just as fast as they can possibly bury it."

Then it's our job to 'wave the bloody shirt' til Nov 7th.

[Kimberly GG]

"Kerry makes direct apology to troops"

Hardly.

[PghBaldy]

DUmmies FrEaKiNg OuT! This on a thread which was PLEADING to not have anymore Kerry threads. They KNOW how bad this is:

Your son would be well advised not to hold his breath whilst 'waiting' ...

[Salamander]

LOL!

Touche'....:)

Last time I looked, a written statement posted on a website was not a direct apology.

I wonder if the voters in Massachusetts are proud of their hometown boy?

"I sincerely regret that my words were misinterpreted to wrongly imply anything negative about those in uniform and I personally apologize to any service member, family member or American who was offended,"


In other words, "I feel sorry for you if you're TOO STUPID to see I was making a bad joke, you dumbasses."

[SerpentDove]

>>"Misinterpreted", my A$$........all this so-called apology
does is make it clear that Kerry believes ALL americans
are stoopid, not just our fine military men and women.<<

Exactly. He drips condescending arrogance, and has for over thirty years.

[Free Styler]

I sincerely regret that my words were misinterpreted...

It should read: "I sincerely regret that I used words..."

Nothing less! His apology is a non-appology...he is saying that we misunderstood.

[Normal4me]

Now he'll want a purple heart for shooting himself in the foot right? What a putz.

[CWOJackson]

He didn't apologize "directly" to the troops...one of his staffers posted some BS on his website.

[43north]

He's actually from the People's Republic of Taxacheusetts which I haven't considered to be a part of the USA for a long time.

[wjcsux]

directly on his website - Teresa, order of rasins to go please.
There is something that I missed about F'ing Kerry and rasins. I have seen several references about SKerry and raisins. What is the connection?

[WillVoteForFood]

He really is an arrogant piece of work. Clearly he thinks it beneath him to simply say "I apologize. I was wrong to say what I said. I have the utmost respect for our armed forces and wish them no ill will. The mistake was mine and mine alone."

Those are words you will never hear from Jon Carry

"I sincerely regret that my words were misinterpreted to wrongly imply anything negative about those in uniform and I personally apologize to any service member, family member or American who was offended," Kerry said in a statement."

Can't you just picture Kerry sighing and checking his watch as he says this?

[tobyhill]

"I personally apologize to any service member, family member or American who was offended,"

but for those who didn't hear it he meant what he said.

[Dante3]

Exactly. It is not a direct apology, not even much of an apology. Someone else probably wrote it and posted it.
