What an idiot Kerry is. Kerry's bid denied for Boston Pops concert during convention week By Karen Testa, Associated Press \| July 8, 2004 BOSTON --Sen. John Kerry's plans to host a Boston Pops concert on the Esplanade during the Democratic convention were shot down Thursday by Romney administration officials who refused to issue a permit, citing logistical and security concerns. Katherine Abbott, commissioner of the state Department of Conservation and Recreation, decided against granting the permit for the July 28 concert and fireworks at the Hatch Shell after the state's public safety secretary advised against it. "With less than three weeks available for planning, especially in the midst of our final preparations for the DNC, there is simply not enough time available to properly develop a sound plan for public safety and security," Secretary Ed Flynn wrote in a letter to Abbott, who asked for him to review the request. Kerry had planned the event to show appreciation to his hometown for hosting the convention, at which he'll accept the Democratic nomination for president.
