WASHINGTON: Enough with The Joke, John Kerry says.
The Massachusetts senator and former Democratic presidential nominee said Wednesday night that it is time to move on from his botched attempt at humor before the Nov. 7 congressional elections.
Kerry had said people might get "stuck in Iraq" if they do not study hard and do their homework. He said he was trying to poke fun at President George W. Bush, but Bush and others accused him of criticizing the troops.
"This is getting silly," Kerry said on CNN's "Larry King Live." "The country needs to think about a policy that has young men and women at risk on a daily basis that is not working."

Leonard Cohen fan?
I love the line ... and freely borrow from the best.
Seems Mr. Carry is always telling us what we need to do. If he shut his pie hole and listened once in awhile, he might learn somthing. Of course that is pure speculation.
I think we should continually use Senator Barak Obama's middle name "Hussein". It will give people an opportunity to take a different look at Mr. Obama. The media is pushing so hard to skyrocket Obama into the political popularity stratosphere. People need to stop and take another look and ask themselves, "Do you want to support a Hussein?" May sound trite but in the real world these are the things that influence people to vote one way or the other.
You know... politics... if you make the most of it, you work hard, you use some common sense, and you make an effort to be patriotic, you can do well. If you don't... you get stuck as the ski-bum-boy-toy of a gin-soaked ketchup dowager.
On a related note, it seems strange that only democrat presidents have that "3 initials" affectation -- FDR, JFK, LBJ. Republican presidents don't bother. What's up with that?
Kerry himself is the "joke" that the country can't move beyond..
Kerry needs to verify his "hero" claim, his "hero" awards and the DETAILS of his DISCHARGE by signing his SF180 to release ALL his military and medical records for review by the PUBLIC he has lied to.
Until then -- Kerry is a lying, traitorous and worthless POS and he can kiss my hairy ass..
Semper Fi
Good grief...there's "our" elected rocket-scientist (not) Patty Murray... ;(
In fact our President Bush 43 was relegated to one letter "W".
LOL!!!
Yep. He's the economy model. When they were handing out the initials, they said, "I dub ya Dubya."
John Kerry is a bonehead, he could not lead his way out of a wet paper bag, let alone out of the ladies room in his college dorm.
Thank you ....The MSM never hounded him for not doing that!
colorado tanker's happy hat
ROTFLMAO!
I save everything!
Yeah I know good stuff when I steal it. :)
John Kerry says it's time to move on from his botched joke on Iraq
Bet he's got a bunch of new botched jokes.
it sounded more like a statement rather than a botched "joke".
and, it sounds as if the good senator should move on to private life instead of representing those un-educated people who would choose to put themselves in harm's way for their country.
(why would such a superior man lower himself to serve in a governmental body that represents so many dumb people?) sarcasm off.
