This morning Imus critized Kerry for saying |
|
"a whole bunch of things" as not being articulate. Now, if Smirk had said that it would just be parr for the course. LOL!

1. Bush: a victim of the soft bigotry of low expectations |
|
Everyone feels that its okay to help the poor boy by explaining what he meant to say.

2. John Kerry is now officially.... |
|
getting (Al) Gored......meaning, no matter what he says or does he will get bashed for it by the mainstreem "liberal" media....I know what it looks, sounds like, and smells like to get Gored....I followed the 2000 election....it is so similar now that it is scary....

4. Last night at the end of Hardball, the elections analyst said 3X |
|
That Kerry DODGED questions about Bush National Guard. The story is supposed to be about Bush getting help to get into the Guard - but instead they focus on Kerry DODGING questions. The use of the word Dodge was deliberate and just......vile.

5. Even worse - Imus kept insisting that Dems are stupid for bringing up AWOL |
|
issue because it only serves to keep the Swift Boat allegations alive.
Excuse me? So Kerry's supposed to just suck it up and not say anything bad about Bush because Bush beat up on him first?

6. in a little way I do agree |
|
but this is constructive: there is a difference between oration on the senate floor, between speaking on a talk show, in a debate or in a stump speech.
John Kerry needs to learn this most critical thing about speechifying: you have to keep your sentences short. You have to have memorable points. You have to have really good memes. You have to vary your intonation, inflection and emphasis and entertain our ears and get our pulses racing. You have to be "inspired".
If you can't effectively call us to action, if you deliver a eulogy instead of a battle cry, you will certainly fail to entertain the people who love to entertain us with news, and they will let you know it.

7. Awwww - Imus will come around. Kerry is to be on his show |
|
soon - at that's what Imus said the other day. Imus is a little peeved at JK now - I heard it was because his train did not stop at Imus' ranch.
