You said it yourself, they watch Faux News, ergo, they are dense.

They who? Who is they? I said when I saw the footage on FoxNews.....Ok, maybe I should have said......"when I saw the footage on every major news network on televison.....I didn't see anyone completely understanding and laughing histerically at his well timed "joke.""

Aside from not making any sense, thanks for cutting up and skewing my response into something not even close to what I originally typed. I guess they don't teach reading comprehension at OU, not to mention that you all must have God-awful senses of humor.

....but hey, again, maybe a huge majority of the general public and both the democratic and republican parties are just "dense."

Exactly. I've done the same thing as 33Girl more times than I care to think about.

What never ceases to amaze me is the sheer number of people who are completely incapable of saying, "I'm sorry," or "I was wrong." I'm not talking just about Kerry, but he's definitely the poster child of the day for this phenomenon. This is definitely one of those times when an "I'm sorry, I was wrong," is needed, and not "I'm sorry, but...".

He has issued an apology.

I thought he "apologized to no one!"

He didn't want there to be a video clip of him apologizing, so he had someone from his office post an apology on his website.

That's hardly an apology, and it hardly gets us to "Ok, he apologized, let's move on." He didn't apologize -- he had one of his lackeys post a generic apology in a public place, not even his own words. How in the hell did he win the primary again?

Because he represents the bluest of the misguided-liberal blue states.

Unfortunately, Kerry's actions and apologies (?) have caused him to cancel all pre-election travel and political appearances.

We need him out on the road showing us who he supports, so there's no confusion.

As it stands now, the liberals are afraid to let Kerry, Pelosi, Reid, Kennedy, Jackson, or Sharpton say anything - hoping voters won't know the truth.

While many Republicans are afraid to let the President of the United States campaign for them. Go figure.

Exactly, we've been waiting to hear from Bush for some time now. I think he's been teh poster child for this for a few years? We definitely need an "I'm sorry I was wrong" from him.

If we are getting trivial and whatnot. This country is growing far too sensitive to everything. Whatever happened to the hardline Conservatives who stood behind what they said? Those that made statements and stuck to them, instead of cutting and running like these hippie Liberals? Now they speak out against people that do these same things, they want apologies and they make me sad.

I'm sure Bush will apologize for the war as soon as the rest of congress does. Oh right, they were misled by Bush. In that case, they're dumber than I thought.

Funny, I didn't mention war. But we shouldn't expect any apology from Bush about anything anyway. He's a "stay the course" type of guy.

I wouldn't say congress was misled by Bush but lots of Americans have been. Hey, I admit Bush is a freaking political genius. He appeals to a base of people that he could probably give two poopies about. To think that the man is truly passionate about the abortion or gay rights (marriage) issues is somewhat naive. What he does care about is getting that vote, which is a considerable chunk. And he'll do what is necessary to secure it. Pure genius, seriously.

But to be serious, this country has more important things to worry abuot. I like Bocce ball and chocolate cake.

Damasa, Bush is the complete opposite. Now, people around him care about nothing but victory, but Bush is pure ideology, even liberal pundits admit that.

This picture was forwarded to me by a friend who is in Iraq right now...its apparently all over the internet, but she knew 3 soldiers in the picture.

there were other candidates...at least in my state

Kerry wouldn't be the lesser of evils running against Castro.

Not that it would ever be an issue, of course, since Castro wouldn't allow free elections, much less allow anyone to run against him.

Castro's just misunderstood. He's a really good bocce player too.

Well, he was. The last few months, not so much.

He'll be back. You don't let talent like that go to waste.

Can we assume this is really the kickoff of his 2008 campaign?
 

Kerry today said he will not run in the 2008 presidential race and vowed to use his Senate perch to hasten an end to the war in Iraq. Choking up as he harkened back to his service in Vietnam, Kerry said he would work to make sure the next president doesn't have to cope with the consequences of a "wider war" sparked by the failed policy in Iraq.

Can we assume this is really the kickoff of his 2008 campaign?

Man I hope so. If there is a world where John Kerry isn't running for president, well, I'm just not sure I wanna live there.
