Kerry has a perfect right to get angry at the Bush propaganda machine, as we all do. That machine, run by Rove, has been lying, misleading, smearing and promoting corruption since day one. It stole the 2000 election for sure and probably stole it in 2004 again. It smeared war heros Kerry, McCain. Cleland, Murtha and a lot more. It covered up crimes, corruption and gross errors.
You have no right to criticize Kerry for a botched joke or anything else. You are not fit to lick his combat boots.
The real crime with the botched joke affair was the fact that the entire White House and GOP propaganda machine dropped all serious issues and focused for 48 hours on a cheap shot at Kerry demanding he apologize for a gaffe. Meanwhile, Bush is the single worst gaffer in US presidential history, and some of his gaffes have gotten US troops killed, especially "bring it on!" his challenge to terrorists to come into Iraq and try to kill Americans. That worked great, for the terrorists. |
