Sen. Kerry

GOP #2, Majority Leader John Boehner: This story is over


When the GOP leader says its over, signaling the GOP attack machine is going to stop, and he's basically apologized and explained as much as humanely possible, you have to conclude this story is over unless the media has it out for Democrats

/story

I don't know what is more pathetic? The late arm twisted apology or the content of this post. Media has it out for Democrats? Give me a break. They have fawned over Kerry's weak explanation for this remark. You should have heard the Tony Snow press conference today. Even some Democrats are ahead of the media on this one!

This would be an excellent comparison to the Cheney hunting incident. The way the press went on full attack more and questioned each and every responce from Cheney and the White House. Kerry is getting such a free pass from everyone except those who can clearly hear the arrogant condecending tone in both the original remark and his spin press conference yesterday.

This is a Red Zone fumble!

That is why Kerry made the late apology on the website. No Cameras and NO QUESTIONS!

And where are Mr. and Mrs. Invisible? I speak of none other than Pelosi and Reid? Talk about Duck and Cover!

Damn. The guy can't even apologize to you without giving him shit for that too.

He didn't apologize for his actions. He apologized for the GOP's actions. He shifted the blame. He is going to get crap for that.

For example, let's say you called on Bush to give an apology for the mishandling of Iraq and he says "I'm sorry the Democrats have misinterpreted the situation." It's kinda crap to the people who felt an apology for his actions was deserved.

Well, people can be misunderstood. That was in reference to the Democrat Party in an election year with just days to go. If that was not clear I apologise to Thorgrim. How clear is that?

It wouldn't have mattered what he said. You guys would still want to tear him into pieces. The Dems do the same thing.

But, when your President makes retarded comments, and rubs Prime Minister's backs like freaks, the other side is being accusatory and rude for the comments, and when it's the other side, let's just face it, we are all waiting to tear the other side a new asshole and have a GOTCHA moment.

I'm tired of it. I want solutions to actual problems this country has, not stupid bickering over what same comment to a crowd really meant, and whether or not he was "sorry" enough or in the right way.

If he made a real apology, there would be nothing to tear into him about. For example, look at the Foley issue. He did the right thing; he stepped down. And did the Democrats tear into him? No, instead they went after the Republican party. If Kerry had done the right thing...given a proper apology for his actions, not the reactions of others...then there would be absolutely nothing to tear him to pieces about.

FYI Bush is your president too.

Your "dumbass" remark was misunderstood? So are you apologizing for making the remark or are you apologizing because it was misunderstood?

Wait...so your quote was taken out of context?!!?!

It's a good thing we all can look at the bigger picture and be level-headed when dealing with situations like this.



As opposed to the right-wing blowhards.

im offended that some democrats bitched out and called for an apology from kerry. instead of building on great Q&A after the comment, they added fuel for the GOP to continue after him. what a bunch of pussies.

where were all of you offended republicans when bush so candidly joked about not findind WMD's in iraq? wait, is that different somehow?

YouTube - Bush Makes A Sick Joke About WMDs

he sure did get a good laugh
