Kerry STILL "dodging" the SUV issue!
NY Times (Page 2 of article) ^ | 4/28/04 | Timeout

Posted on 04/28/2004 6:12:28 AM PDT by Timeout

Just 5 days ago we were treated to the "family SUV" gaffe by the "all-but-crowned" Democratic candidate:

4/23/04

``I don't own an SUV,'' said Kerry in response to reporters' questions....

Kerry thought for a second when asked whether his wife, Teresa Heinz Kerry, had a Suburban at their Ketchum, Idaho, home. Kerry said he owns and drives a Dodge 600 and recently bought a Chrysler 300M. He said his wife owns the Chevrolet SUV.

``The family has it. I don't have it,'' he said.

That was funny, right? We all guffawed at the photos of old Dodge 600's.

________________

Well, it appears the Senator still doesn't have his story straight.

This morning the NY Times has an article about Kerry's butler (I'm not kidding!). Marvin Nicholson Jr. takes care of the Senator's every personal whim--from PBJ sandwiches to tucking him in at night.

Tucked into the article is this little note:

4/28/04

A few months ago, [Marvin} inherited the candidate's 1984 Dodge 600 ES convertible when it was replaced by a 2002 Chrysler.

Only Kerry could be caught lying to say he had an old Dodge 600!

If Kerry was a race horse the owner would have had to him put out of his misery.

I said yesterday I was beginning to think Kerry's taking advice from that Clinton-era guy who lied to his diary! Maybe we found him.

Chrysler 300M made in Canada, imported to U.S. for Daimler/Chrysler (Germany).

Seems he doesn't give a damn about U.S. workers either.

The press always tries to make the Presidential election a horse race. This may be the first one where a party puts its horse out of their misery.

Kerry: Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to take a bath.

Nicholson: I'll alert the media.

Kerry: Do you want to run my bath for me?

Nicholson: It's what I live for. [Kerry exits] Perhaps you would like me wash your dick for you... you little $hit

It's because the Press will turn it into a horserace anyway that Bush/Rove have let up on the negative ads. They did their part to soften the opponent--we know that these outrages/gaffes/waffles will work in the future so we lighten up for a while.

What we can't stop is Kerry putting his size-12's in his mouth every other day. This SUV issue is another one where the press will propably have to follow-up, "Do you really still have the Dodge or did you give it away? Do you ever ride in the SUV or is it really off-limits to you?"

One final point--I don't care about whether it was medals or ribbons or if they were interchangeable in Kerry's mind. I think that the act itself disqualifies this guy from ever serving as Commander-in-Chief. The fact that he "threw them away" before he replaced them and put them in a box to display in his home for Union supporters, et al, is just another waffling flip-flop to me.

What I found interesting was this; "to help lug Mr. Kerry's...and tote his Serotta racing bicycle."


Unfreaken believable, the 'man of the people' strikes again! Here's the skinny on a Serotta bicycle frame:
MSRP for frame alone is $3295.00 - Standard, $3695.00 - ST. The darn frame's over $3k, no tires, or nothing!

Then add in his $20,0000 shot-gun.... GOD WHAT A PHONY!!!

This maggot isn't running for POTUS, he's running to be KING!

OK, all you graphic/photoshop whizs out there, here's the first thing I thought of when reading about the cars and sKerry's butler...

"Driving Mr. Kerry"

BTW, when will the media pick up on the fact that half the Kerry cars we know about were built/assembled in other countries?

1995 Chevy Suburban
1993 Land Rover Defender - Made in UK
1989 Jeep Cherokee
1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee
2001 Audi Allroad - Made in Germany
2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser - Made in Mexico
2002 Chrysler 300M - Made in Canada
1985 Dodge 600 Convertible -Made in prior century, garaged in third world city, gifted to hired help

Bwahahaha!

Elect me as your president, please pay no attention to the fact I haven't a clue as to what kind of car I drive. ~John Effin' Kerry - who btw served in Vietnam

Maybe we should cut Effin' some slack, it's hard to keep track when you have 12 vehicles. /sarcasm

Oh Mahhhhhhrvin, bring me my PB&J toot sweet!

Aha! Someone who gets it--that the real story is that Kerry has a manservant and who has permission to drive the Senator's old beater. Can't be letting him drive one of the good cars when he's out step'n fetch'n it.

A mere pittance my dear. Isn't that about what it costs to fly their private jet for an hour?

Uh-oh.

The Times must be reading FR again. (Oh, yeah).
They've now pulled the article off their web front page!
That didn't take long.

LOL!
