DES MOINES, Iowa A Democratic Congressional candidate from Iowa is canceling a campaign event later this week with Senator John Kerry.
Brucy Braley says Kerry's recent comments about the Iraq war were inappropriate. Braley's decision to distance himself from Kerry came as a furor grew from comments Kerry made about the Iraq War during a campaign stop in California on Monday.

We haven't heard from Daschle but I'm sure he's deeply disappointed.
Perfectly pithy. Couldn't have said it better meself.
Excellent! Thanks for the link.
What cowards not to state the obvious, rebuke Kerry and join the American Legion and countless others in demanding an apology. And what a disaster for the United States if this party achieves a majority in either the House or the Senate.
Any vote for any Democrat is a vote against victory and a vote for vulnerability. It is also a vote against the military."
They hate a strong America, our military personnel and President Bush.
A nice dose of reality for Kerry by Doug from Upland on youtube.

I think he probably wants to assure that Kerry will be willing to come on his show in the future. (Not that Kerry will, of course, regardless . . .)
Bee-YOU-ti-ful!!!

I am not even American (doesn't alter my being pro-US and a GOP well-wisher) but this guys comments disgust me. A politician who kept his hatred of his country's power for as long as he has and yet made it this far in his career is shameful. I hope you guys find a way to help him find his place in the garbage dump of American history.
Good job!
You took the query right outta my mouth......:)
The politicians know he steppped in it this time.
The man is a true idiot. You could see it coming when he started bragging about how he was going to really give it to anyone who tries to Swiftboat him again. He was building up to this and when he got enough rope he hanged himself. The man really is stupid. A simple apology could have saved him.
You could be right. JFK doesn't have a moral bone in his body and such things are foreign to him. He is a blue-blooded nothing sucking at the teat of privelage.
Last week I heard the father of a soldier who recently died in Iraq on the Laura Ingrahm show. That man spoke so proudly of his son and at times his voice cracked. Tears spilled down my face as I pondered the loss of a child. And yet it's how we do in this country. Our CITIZENS provide a military that not only protects our country but also the entire planet! What would this Earth place be like were it not for the American military? The mind boggles at the thought.
As bad as I hurt for that man who lost his 20-year old son, when Kerry made those mean remarks I got nauseous. How on earth could anyone, especially a U.S. Senator, say such a mean and nasty thing? Sure I'm on the pubbie side and the political benefit is not lost on me.
Even so, it's waaaaaay more than a political benefit to me. Kerry's remarks hurt me to the core.
I suspect the Dem party is going to have disown this man completely. I see no other way out for the Dems. Unless they hold a knife to Kerry's throat and make him apologize and frankly I don't think even that's going to do it.
The only definitive statement the opposition party can make regarding their vapid and very mean 2004 presidential candidate is to vanish him from the public eye.
For JFK made the worst mistake an American politician can make. He spit in the eye of the mighty Middle class, that vast demograph of American citizens who carry this country on their back. The Middle Class carries this country on its back; not the politicians, not Hollywood. We provide the soldiers for our military, not the politicians, not Hollywood. Any seasoned politico knows not to step on the mighty but often silent Middle class. Well damn, we're too busy carrying this country on our back, raising the soldiers and citizens of tomorrow, working and raising the economic status of not only the U.S., but the entire planet.
The political junkee side of my brain ponders what the Dems are going to do. They've got a nuke on their hands now and Kerry's timing was sooooo perfect, direct in the middle of the news cycle, one week before an important election. I write fiction and couldn't have come up with this Perfect Storm.
The emotional side of me desperately wants Kerry eliminated from the national scene. What he said was so damn mean and frankly, I am embarrassed. Let's hope our military believes us, the silly, non-blue-blooded minions of the Middle Class, that we in no way agree with John Kerry.
I really hurt for what Kerry said. The Dems really need to do the right thing here, on so many levels.
Fabulous, spectacular post, dead! Still LOL.
100000 more votes in Ohio and this bafoon could've been our President. That's the scarey part!
