Big Eddie just played Hillary's comment on the Kerry Flap

[Rick Myers]

All I can say is FUCK HER!!!

[OzarkDem]

1. So he's in on this too?

Now I know I don't trust him.

[ginnyinWI]

7. No, he's still got JK's back.

He played the clip of Hillary, but doesn't support it. If you had heard his rant yesterday you'd agree.

[David Dunham]

2. What did she say? I agree with saying Kerry's statement was inappropriate

[Bluebear]

12. Ah, so you think he meant to disparage the troops, do you?

[roguevalley]

20. he didn't mean to disparage the troops. he just mungled a joke and

gave the machine another way out. jeez. is it too much to say he messed up? you say he messed up and there are people on this forum (not you) who will question your loyalty. (does that ring a bell?)

[OwnedByFerrets]

3. AGREED!!!!

How dare she!!!! Just throw him under the bus and then back over him Hillary. So much for standing with out own and standing for the truth. :puke:

[Rick Myers]

19. Why didn't she tell Bush and Cheney to apologize to the troops!

Simple, to the point. That's what the damn joke was about!!! Bush and Cheney and Rummy sending troops to battle without body armor!!! A completely FAILED war with NO PLAN for AFTER THE WAR. Utter chaos in Iraq!!! Death! Death!! Death!!! And we're pissing around about a stupid joke???

[blm]

4. Don't worry - they can talk about it at the debates. She can stand on her own.

Levin wants Kerry to apologize for Iraq remarks

The Grand Rapids Press

GRAND RAPIDS -- U.S. Sen. Carl Levin today called on Democratic colleague Sen. John Kerry to apologize for controversial comments about the troops in Iraq, calling them a "botched statement by a former candidate who doesn't represent this party."

Speaking this morning at Wolfgang's Restaurant in Grand Rapids, where he was campaigning for Democratic Gov. Jennifer Granholm, Levin said of Kerry: "I would say I'm sorry for making a botched remark, admit that it was a botched remark."

[WildEyedLiberal]

8. I will, thanks

JOHN KERRY SPEAKS FOR ME - CARL LEVIN DOES NOT!

Fuck him and Hillary and the rest of the Weeniecrats who are FURTHERING Tony Snow and the GOP's spin.

[Rick Myers]

6. Gimme a moment and I'll try to find the clip

[Rick Myers]

9. I'm not mad at Eddie or JK, she was totally pandering

No Hillary in 08, The GOP knows they can win against her...

[WildEyedLiberal]

10. She's not gonna win in 08 by out-Repuking the Repukes

She's such a tool, and so are all the other Weeniecrats rushing to repeat the GOP spin about this.

[dicknbush]

11. You have to realise that they are only doing what is best......

If they get pushed for a statement they have to go with the troops or else the RIGHT WINGED BLABBING MACHINE will have every kook in the world out after them and they will ride this things through the week. If Hillary suports JK they will say HILLARY HATES THE TROOPS... We need to smother this thing ASAP and if they have to through JK over board for a few days so be it.....WE HAVE BIGGER FISH TO FRY!!!

[Rick Myers]

14. All they have to do is LET IT DIE

When asked what they think, say "John Kerry apologized for a botched joke that was misunderstood." Hillary blows in the wind, and Rove KNOWS she is the ONLY Dem they can BEAT in 08! This story was dying last night. She should occassionally keep her mouth shut!

[dicknbush]

17. Agreed.

In that regard if she did not have to say anything I agree. JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT IT AND THE SOONER THE BETTER. Let Hillbilly drug addict talk about it all he wants his credibility is at 26% last time I saw so he is only preaching to the Choir.

[blm]

23. We have nothing to fear but the fear of RW noise machine, itself.

But then - you're still too fearful to run for president. Because that is not what's needed for a 2008 battle.

[spag68]

13. As if the rethugs don't flame Dems.

This really should not be raging here.

[Rick Myers]

16. You are correct spag68

We don't need this right now. She should have replied that Kerry apologied for messing up a joke. The TRUTH IS, everyone KNOWS the cannon fodder are not college educated kids. They feel guilty for what they THINK Kerry said!!! The damn Army had to LOWER THEIR RECRUITING STANDARDS to get the bodies they need for the machine!!!

[Leopolds Ghost]

25. That was NOT the joke. Does anyone understand the joke Kerry was

trying to say:

"If you don't stay in school you'll end up becoming president and leading us into Iraq."

[dicknbush]

15. Rick Calm down...

We have to smother this thing or thwy will talk about it right up to November 7th and they may do that any way. If it becomes more heated by Hillary defending JK it will only give them more energy to keep talking about. KERREY is not running for anything WE HAVE BIGGER FISH TO FRY.

[Rick Myers]

18. She did NOT defend him...

Quite the opposite. I was very sad to hear, and I'm searching for the transcript.

[mmonk]

21. Someone should keep a "courage" list of

democrats. And I would never give vile dishonest people the satisfaction of having myself screw over a fellow democrat. With that, I'll leave everything to the courage list of democrats. Anybody made it besides Murtha yet? I've just decided, Kerry in '08.

[bunny planet]

22. Hillary won't do anything to help Kerry. She obviously would like

nothing more than to torpedo his renewed attempt at the Presidency in 2008. Very sad. He just donated all kinds of money to Dem candidates across the country and this is the thanks he gets.

[SlipperySlope]

24. What did she say?
