White House Urges Kerry to Apologize for Expletive WASHINGTON (Reuters) - In a rare White House rebuke of a Democratic presidential candidate, chief of staff Andrew Card called on Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites) on Sunday to apologize for using an four-letter expletive in an interview lambasting President Bush (news - web sites)'s Kerry was quoted by Rolling Stone magazine as saying, "Did I expect George Bush to f..k it up as badly as he did? I don't think anybody did." Card criticized Kerry for the using the expletive. "I've known John Kerry for a long time and I'm very disappointed that he would use that kind of language," Card said on CNN's Late Edition. "That's beneath John Kerry. ... I'm hoping that he's apologizing, at least to himself, because that's not the John Kerry that I know," Card added. The White House and Bush re-election campaign have resisted responding to various attacks by the Democratic candidates, choosing instead to let them fight among themselves. They have left the responses up to the Republican Party, and the party apparatus has generally responded to the Democrats as a group instead of individually. * Can Dean top that as the angry Democrat? gg
