3. It amazes me
what crap they put on the air over at Faux. Geraldo has become a complete wacko, and for what, he'll do or say anything for a buck. Disgusting. My God the man couldn't even stand up when a little bit of wind during one of the hurricanes and he got flipped on his lying ass.

Wasn't he banned from Iraq for giving out logistics drawn in the sand?

18. I think that this is perhaps the comment least in need of response
because it is so clearly stupid and Geraldo may have already succeeded in being liked and respected by absolutely no one. He is a celebrity reporter, not even a journalist any more. That Kerry served is common knowledge - in fact the RW made a joke of it being mentioned too much. Also, for any reasonably sane reachable person, Geraldo is a tabloid reporter while Kerry is a respected Senator. Also, how does he answer - calling Geraldo a nutcase?

What Kerry indirectly has to respond to in whatever forum he opts to is:
-That his plan is a serious plan, not "cut and run" His answers to a much more politely worded question on that during his debate with Warner was great.
- That this is not political. His Allard response was to this question.

There will still be those who disagree, but Kerry on TV though, by his demeanor and thoughtful responses refutes the motivations assigned to him.

I thought I was replying to the OP, but instead it ended up in that spot. That's what happens when you type fast like me. :hi:

25. I hadn't noticed or I would have moved it as well
others have essentially the same answer. (I've done the same.)

24. it was - It was whether Kerry should respond

2. What a joke!
Geraldo is obviously suffering from Fox News Blithering Idiot disease. (It comes from being near Bill O'Lielly, who also thinks he has been in war because he was once a scribe in a war zone.) What a joke.

4. Look who is talking!
Geraldo is a joke.

I won't even waste my time watching that video.

Think about this when you think about Geraldo-
I was watching him on tv when he was covering Katrina.
He was talking and then fell on his ass. Right on national tv. lol. So whenever I see
him spewing on tv, I just visualize him falling on his ass.

9. KO exposed Geraldo during Katrina Hurricane
does anyone remember how everyone was talking about Geraldo's reporting then and how emotional he was ? Keith exposed him and said that Geraldo made some of the victims do or say things again so the camera could get it. i think this was when Keith put him on the worst person in the world list. many were disappointed since many really wanted to believe Geraldo reallyd id care. but he is a whore as always.

what a fucking prick. seen combat ? enlist you fucker and see the difference in what reporters and soldiers who actually have to deal with this everyday go through.

12. Yes, it was because of the Kerry remark.
I would have made him 'worst', but that's me. KO smacked him, though, for his remark about JK.

KO is cool.

I'm afraid I don't recall how far into the show. I was only half watching until I heard 'Kerry'.

14. I'll never forget watching live when Geraldo opened Al Capone's
vault to find...NOTHING. All that hype! I swear the entire country was glued to their sets that day. lol
It was one of the first TV shows I saw after I came to the States for the first time. What an impression that left, I tell ya. Ever since that day, I have not taken Geraldo seriously at all.

15. Do you all think..
that Kerry should respond? Or should it be through the spokespeople? I think the media is out to smear or get him and Wade's smackdowns have been really good.

16. considering most people think Geraldo is a joke, i think we can use him
to show what type of people it is who attack Kerry. i doubt most people would want to take up Geraldo's side against Kerry.

17. Exactly
Geraldo was always a joke. Even during his talk show years and the OJ trial. :puke:

20. I don't think so.
Rivera is not to be taken seriously. He may want to comment on the absurdity of Rivera's remark at some point, but I don't think it's really deserving of a reply.
JMHO.
