Bushies are clearly lying about Kerry's joke. Of course Kerry meant to blame Bush, not the troops, he was just clumsy in his wording. Kerry now has Bush right where he wants him.

Also, Bush should talk about being clumsy with words. GW once said: "The terrorists are trying to destroy this country and so are we".

Yet I didn't notice any democrats take his gaffe seriously, they just laughed at him. If they had claimed Bush was trying to destroy America they'd have stepped into the same kind of caca Bushies are stepping into now, a real debate on Bush's debacle in Iraq with a very strong, angry John Kerry who has the truth and facts on his side.

Bush Calls warwoundfakerKerry Remarks Insulting to U.S. Troops

President Bush last night accused Sen. John Flipflop. warwoundfakerKerry of disparaging U.S. troops in Iraq, echoing the 2004 strategy of ridiculing the Massachusetts senator to raise anew questions about Democratic leaders and their commitment to the troops. The highly coordinated White House effort came as Republicans sought to shift the focus away from an unpopular war and GOP scandals that are putting their congressional majorities at risk.

The controversy erupted after warwoundfakerKerry told a California audience on Monday: "Education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. And if you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."

Yesterday, Bush, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), the American Legion and many GOP candidates pounced on the comment from the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee to accuse him of insulting U.S. troops. The president said warwoundfakerKerry owes service members an apology -- echoing a parade of prominent Republicans who criticized the Massachusetts Democrat throughout the day.

After reading warwoundfakerKerry's comments to a GOP audience in Georgia, Bush said warwoundfakerKerry's statement was "insulting and it is shameful. The members of the United States military are plenty smart and they are plenty brave, and the senator from Massachusetts owes them an apology." The White House tipped off the networks to when Bush would attack warwoundfakerKerry, so the comments could be carried live and make the evening news.

Instapundit : "Kerry's suggestion that the troops in Iraq are dumb failures is not only reprehensible, but false on the facts. In other words, a typical Kerry performance, just in time for the elections. Democrats must be wondering what they were thinking to nominate him in 2004, and why he won't go away now."

Blogger Austin Bay : "Sheesh. Kerry is stuck on Vietnam, almost as stuck on Vietnam as he is stuck on his own self-absorbed, narcissistic bio-mass . . .

"Why didn't Senator Kerry just apologize? 'I'm sorry for what I said. I meant to crack a joke and it came out sounding like an insult to US troops. Forgive me. We owe our defenders so much.' "
