John Kerry Comments

[SilveradoLAX7]

Let me apologize in advance, it's not my intention to start any sort of political debate (just to share some humor). But in light of Kerry's comments about the education of our troops, I had to share their response...

ketchup boy...or is it catsup boy...thought the "original" joke would have also been ok to tell.

 

Just continuing examples of someone without common sense much less a sense of personal responibilities for one's own actions.

 

i.e. at the beginning of the 04 campaign...making a "from the heart" speech about how the R's and glutonous SUV's are for destroying the eco system...after the speech seen driving home in a Ford Excursion (driving not driven in)...then tells the press that it's his wife's and he does not personally own or like driving it...good answer allowance lacky

Great picture

 

After watching the news reports on this last night, anyone with half a brain knows what Kerry meant to say.

 

I didn't vote for him, but it is clear what was intended there.

10+ years in the military gives me the right to call a spade a spade. The guy is an a$$hat. Most of the guys I know in the Air Force do this job for a lot of different reasons but I never heard " I have no where else to go" or " I am too dumb to make it in the real world". All of our officers have a minimum 4 year Bachelor's degree, most are either working on another degree or towards a masters, our senior NCO's further their educaton and most have or are working on their Associates degree and a large number are working on Masters degrees as well. The military is historically more advanced in human rights, sexual harrassment prevention, race, gender , and religious descrimination, equal pay, legality, political correctness, and a multitude of other typical managerial hurdles

What I do, I don't do it for John Kerry or because Bush did his cheesy little fly-in on the aircraft carrier. I do it for me. I do it for my kids. I do it for a multitude of reasons that I don't have to explain to anyone, anywhere, and I don't dignify a remark made, whether it be mistake or purpose, by this man whom I do not respect.

Funny Picture...

 

I don't care if you are a Democrat or a Republican, or if you like or dislike John Kerry.

 

His comment was not a foul dig at our fine troops like the media and politicians are making it out to be.

 

This is from the New York Times:

 

Kerry's prepared remarks to a gathering of students in California on Monday called for him to say, "Do you know where you end up if you don't study, if you aren't smart, if you're intellectually lazy? You end up getting us stuck in a war in Iraq. Just ask President Bush." In his delivery, he dropped the word "us."

 

 

Wrong word to drop....

 

 

I don't care for Karry, but this media fire storm is ridiculous...

 

I personally think Obama is the way to go for Democrats. One thing is for sure, its going to get a whole lot more interesting in the year to come.

 

Obama Vs. McCain would be a dream election for me. Win/Win...

Obama rules. Every time I've seen him speak he impresses the crap out of me. That is one smart cookie right there.

[Tucson_02Silverado]

time will tell with Obama.....could just be a Perot in ethnic clothing. Able to see the obvious and is willing to say something about it....but ultimately has no real plans for resolution

[Wingnut]

Perot had some good ideas too.

 

But...Those ears....Jeebus, pin those things back before you go on TV man! You're scaring the kids!

[Schmids5.3l]

Hah, I'd dare him to insult my intelligence, especially for being in the Army...I'd hawk my copenhagen spit right in his face

 

I want to throw his ass in downtown Baghdad and do some door-to-door room clearing, or have him ride in a bulk petrolium convoy to Baghdad Intl. Airport, and when he craps his pants and is crying like a school girl, we can put it on national television. Maybe he'd have some respect after that experience.
