The folks here are just letting off a little steam,

Yeah, me too.........................



What do you think is important?

[Newtoidaho]

Could this be J f'n K's "Dukakis moment"
Dems do have a way of wearing the stupidest looking headgear imaginable.

[JENINMO]

Maybe he's just unbalanced. :)

[Paul Atreides]

Of all people who should NOT be wearing biker shorts!

What's with the hand gesture? Must be a Fr*nch thing.

I do remember all the exercise in Utah.

This from the Boston Globe:

Perhaps nowhere is Senator John F. Kerry's edgy style more evident than in his recreational pursuits, some of which are just this side of extreme.

Kerry is known to push himself physically, often at high rates of speed, testing his athleticism, endurance, and ability to make quick decisions.

Many 59-year-olds limit their exercise to golf, jogging, or tennis. Not Kerry. Long a proficient windsurfer (in 1998, he was featured on the cover of American Windsurfer magazine), Kerry in recent years has kicked it up a notch with kiteboarding, a new water sport that has occasionally resulted in fatal accidents.

He's also a longtime motorcyclist, airplane pilot, powerboater, and long-distance bicyclist.

Among his more traditional recreational activities are golf, skiing, sailing, and ice hockey, a sport he once played regularly but now plays only on occasion.

Did he crash into a secret service agent?

No, "the S.O.B." pushed him. He doesn't fall.

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

He's probably trying to get a Purple Heart for this as we speak.

[TASMANIANRED]

I am so envious of the graphic savy.

[NeoCaveman]

Pencil necked geek alert

He's so very French.

Sounds like a Freeper animation project :) I don't know how to do animation, but I think a video of Kerry falling set to the Benny Hill theme music would be perfect. How many times has Kerry done stuff like that now, anyway? Let's see, we've got the ski incident; the incident with him bumping his head in the mine shaft; and now this--I bet there's more out there. . .

[MilesVeritatis]

The truth is I never fell off the bicycle--before I fell off of it.

[SouthCarolinaKit]

What's the deal with Church this Sunday. . . haven't seen and Holy Communion stories. Did he take the day off? What's another mortal sin to someone who's for abortion 24/7?

REAL BIKERS don't have to take their bikes to the shop. They fix them themselves!

It really wasn't my bike it belongs to the "Family".

Hmmmmm, wonder if we are missing something. JFK know Tony Soprano??

[xrp]

This is all Bush's fault!

[surrey]

Howie Carr called around the Boston area to find out what the bike cost. He found the shop in ,I believe, Belmont. The salesman admitted that Kerry was a customer but refused to disclose the price. After much checking Howie found out that it is a Serrota ,or somesuch name, and decked out is about $7,000!

As biker hubby would say "If ya can't wrench it or pick it up when ya drop it yourself, sell it".

[ThreePuttinDude]

"What is it about these Democrats when they try to do something athletic for the cameras"

Lets not forget Algore running for a pass, with his arms firmly locked at his hips, looking like a spastic little girl...



(No offense to little girls intended)

Did you click on the AP link? It's like AP knew what a stupid picture of him that it was,

I just notice that

Did you see this one .. What a Dork

[Dan from Michigan]

No wonder he fell. There's no strength in his legs(matches his neck) to hold him up. ROFL. And WTF is he doing wearing tights? I don't even wear them when I'm out jogging.

I'm calling him stickboy from now on. I thought this guy claimed to be a hockey player. Riiiight!
