John Kerry on CNN now!

[flpoljunkie]

This is what a President is supposed to sound like. He puts Dubya to shame!

I have to also say the Democrats looked mighty proud standing there listening to John Kerry spar with the media. He looked and sounded mighty presidential!

[One Taste]

1. thanks

[tridim]

2. Kick some ass Kerry!

He's hitting hard on jobs. Awesome!

[madmax]

3. My goodness!!!!

He is one TALL man! Anyone know his height? He will tower over bush standing side by side at a debate. :)

[JI7]

6. 6'4"

[madmax]

18. Wow!

Tall, lanky, rugged looking. He's positively 'Lincolnesque'!

[HuskerDem]

37. Team Rove won't let them stand too close to each other

at the debate(s). If we get one. I can see them trying to get out of any debates or limit it to one or two with pre-approved questions or some crap like that. They have to know after "Face the Nation" what an emarrasing failure a real debate would be.

[BootinUp]

42. Face the Nation...

or were you referring to the recent Bush appearance on MTP with Timmy Russert?

[shadu]

4. I don't have CNN here, please post some highlights

[Feanorcurufinwe]

5. Kerry just keeps putting the focus on jobs and the Bush campaign hates it

[One Taste]

7. "No intention of apologizing"

:):)

[tridim]

8. "I have no intention of apologizing whatsoever for my remarks"

!!! :D :D :D

[BootinUp]

9. Hotdamn!

Love it!

:bounce:

[Beetwasher]

10. WooHoo!

Way to go Kerry!

[frank frankly]

12. more details!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

puh-lease!

[JI7]

19. talked about what they did to john mccain and max cleland

he was asked about vietnam and his record and kerry said how those people did the same crap to mccain and max cleland with questioning their service and their patriotism.

[flpoljunkie]

24. Kerry called them the "Republican attack squad"--those who smeared

John McCain and Max Cleland.

He ended by saying that George Bush doesn't have a record to run on, so he needs to run away from his record. A good one--we will surely hear repeated by the Kerry campaign!

[Feanorcurufinwe]

25. To summarize

Kerry just kept talking about jobs, Bush's failed record, and how the focus needs to be on re-invigorating our manufacturing sector. He got a question about someone he appeared with on MTP in 1971, lol. He got a question about the 'liars' comment and he pointed out that he is being attacked falsely, mentioned that a new attack campaign was beginning tonight, that is not about jobs, national security, health care, education, the environment, because Bush does not have a record to run on, but only a record to run away from, and that's what they are trying to do.

[trotsky]

40. Thank you for the summary!

Signed,

One of the "cube rats".

[curse10]

43. YEAH!!!!!!

WOo hoo!

[R3dD0g]

11. And no apology!!!

Great!!!

Keep it up.

[The Magistrate]

13. That Is The Ticket, Senator!

Never apologize, never explain!

"LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!"

[R3dD0g]

14. What was the comment from Truman

about negative campaigns or something?

paraphrasing:

I'm just telling the truth and they think it's dirty politics.

or something like that.

[The Magistrate]

20. As Recollection Serves, Sir...

"I don't give 'em Hell...I just give 'em the truth, and they think it's Hell!"

"LETR'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!"

[R3dD0g]

21. I thought you would know Mag.

That's what Kerry needs to say.

[madmax]

15. Rip'em a new one - John!!

"No intention whatsover of apologizing".

YES!! :toast:

[stepnw1f]

16. Great Speech

What's up with the talking head, reiterating and misinforming the public of Kerry's comments?

[DeepModem Mom]

32. Correction, stepnw1f: the word, according to W, is"reiNterating"

[stepnw1f]

33. LOL

[flpoljunkie]

35. Kyra Phillips drank the Bush Kool-Aid when she was assigned to an

aircraft carrier during the first phase of the Iraq War. She is totally transparent and unprofessional.

[Nazgul35]

17. Notice the CNN talking head

mischaracterized his comments...


claimed he said "all Republicans.."

love that liberal media!!!!

[The Magistrate]

23. One Of The Beauties Of This Statement, Mr. Nazgul

Is that it is true on whatever level one deigns to take it: the criminals of the '00 Coup, their political operatives, the Republican Party...all are the most crooked bunch of liars anyone has ever seen!

"LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!"

[Nazgul35]

28. you know and I know

he meant all repugs...

:evilgrin:

but that doesn't mean we want the masses to know that...

[The Magistrate]

29. Of Course We Do, Sir!

We want all the people to know the Republican Party is nothing but a crew of thieves who lie so reflexively they cannot distinguish the lie from the truth!

This is a fight to the last blood, Sir: we want to be the last man standing, and nothing shorter will do. It is a mistake to imagine the people dislike this sort of thing: they love a good fight, and adore a hard fighter.

"LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!"

[flpoljunkie]

30. What an astute observation, Magistrate!

We "love a good fight, and adore a hard fighter."

Bring it on!!!

22. GIVE 'EM HELL JOHN!!!

[TacticalPeek]

26. Judging from this thread, he sounds mighty fine.

Apologizing for the truth is no way to win, and Kerry clearly has winning in sight. Bring it on, and bring some with you, big guy!

:kick:

[The Magistrate]

27. The More Coverage This Gets, The Better!

The more people hear this, the more they will be inclined to devalue any future attempts by the Republicans to attack: their advertisements, their spokespeople, all will face a popular mind that has nodded already at the thought: "these are the most crooked, lying bunch I have ever seen!"

"LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!"

[ModerateMiddle]

31. Hoorah!

He's not going to apologize because he "didn't say anything that was incorrect."

Yipppeeee!!

:bounce:

[mzmolly]

34. Shit, I missed it!

Sounds like his meeting with Dean put the ol' fire in the belly?! ;)

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

38. Hang the SOBs John!!!

It's about time he showed some balls!!! GO GET THE BASTARDS!!

[Search Party]

39. Salut! John Kerry!

LET'S TAKE BACK OUR FLAG!

LET'S TAKE BACK OUR HOUSE!

AND TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY!

F*CK THE LYING LIARS AND THE SHRUB THEY RODE IN ON!

[SammyWinstonJack]

41. That's great!
