HUMAN RESTRICTOR PLATE SPEAKS
John Kerry abandons the NASCAR vote:
Kerry, who has a commanding lead in the race to oppose Bush this fall, chided the president for taking time out Sunday to attend the Daytona 500, saying the country was bleeding jobs while he posed for a "photo opportunity." Bush had donned a racing jacket to officially open NASCAR's most prestigious event in front of some 180,000 fans.
"We don't need a president who just says, 'Gentlemen start your engines,'" Kerry said. "We need a president who says, 'America, let's start our economy and put people back to work.'"
Great with the one-liners, isn't he? Kerry is just bitter that he lost, as Iowahawk reports. Scandal update:
A woman who has been the subject of rumors linking her to Sen. John Kerry denied Monday that she ever had an affair with the Democratic presidential candidate.
Iowahawk again:
Personally, I'm skeptical of the whole business. I can't believe Kerry would ever screw someone with a French name.
UPDATE. Mudville Gazette: 'Kerry should have kept his mouth shut'

Posted by: debbie at February 17, 2004 at 12:49 PMYou'll be laughing on the other side of your face when he beats your boy W. Those Bushes are terminal one-term presidents. They're not smart enoguh to fool people twice.

Posted by: Andrea Harris at February 17, 2004 at 12:56 PMGreat minds think alike! And at the same time!
Posted by: Andrea Harris at February 17, 2004 at 12:57 PMnot only is the rumour wrong the parents are voting for him in November.
Now we learn the 'picture' with Jane fonda was doctored.
Interesting
One of the Fonda pics was doctored, Homes. Do you know which one? Bet you don't!
Posted by: tim at February 17, 2004 at 01:11 PMFor those of you who don't know, NASCAR followers earn more than the median wage in America.
Forget the Fonda pics, what about the CNN pics? Those are current.
Posted by: Sandy P. at February 17, 2004 at 02:21 PMDoes Kerry have a "Fighting For The Working People" random quote generator?
They're not smart enoguh to fool people twice.
Huh? 2000, 2002. Can you count?
Posted by: Quentin George at February 17, 2004 at 03:53 PMI knew John F. Kennedy, he was a Bubba. John Kerry is no Bubba.
Posted by: Wallace at February 18, 2004 at 02:33 AMScandal update? What fucking scandal, you tosser!
Posted by: Miranda Divide at February 18, 2004 at 11:53 AMThe only photo that was proved correct was the one snapped of Kerry on the Grassy Knoll with a smoking rifle in his hand!
Posted by: Homer Paxton at February 18, 2004 at 12:34 PMI am sure there will be another scandal for good ole' Kerry. I mean why bother using a good scandal now? It will be much more fun to wait until he gets the nomination and then let it out. Edwards is now nipping at his heels as well.
