Oh look, the media is still playing up Kerry's joke about Bush

Jon Keller's Top 5 National 'Turkeys' Of 2006

There is even a slideshow!

(My comments):

Taking the number five spot (war criminal) Donald Rumsfeld

Number four on the list is W., as in (Torturer-in-Chief) President George W. Bush.

Number three is (racist) Michael Richards.

Number two is (a man vindicated of murder) O.J. Simpson.

And by popular demand national turkey of the year is (botched-joke teller) Senator John Kerry.

Now there is good old-fashioned GOP/media perspective!

1. I'll take a botched joke over those others any day. What idiots!

[babylonsister]

2. Why does Kerry threaten them so? And where is the list

of 'turkeys' Bush tried to enunciate this past year? No contest.

3. My local pundit is still talking about Kerry's elitist "botched joke" mentality

There is no elitist mentality if it was a botched joke, moron.

8. Media must diminish any future "threats" and yet keep them

just barely alive for future taunts.. what's a media to do :shrug:

As soon as kerry says he's not running, they'll lay off..

[LittleClarkie]

11. Well, we'll see then

He may still be running.

Love your sig pic, btw.

4. They need to make hay while the sun shines. They look set fair to get

their wings well and truly clipped.

5. Let us show them.

We need to run Kerry again this time and when he beats their ass, that will be the best punch line. The joke will be on them and we will all get a good laugh.

12. When you write, "we",....who do you mean?

[wisteria]

6. This man can really distinguish between what really is important

and what is nonsense. And actually, to suggest that the murdering OJ, the insensitive and incompetent Rumsfield and the lying bumbling Bush are not as bad as Kerry's misquoted comments about Bush. Wow, this is beyond surreal. Have any of these people stopped to think about where their priorities are or what is really important and what is not.

7. Does anyone here have the transcript of the joke? I missed it

and it's the biggest damn thing in the news?

[BlueStater]

9. CNN did a turkey list too

The assholes had the gall to but Kerry's joke ahead of Darth Cheney shooting his friend in the face.

[Warren DeMontague]

10. Lets see. The GOP has botched an illegal, immoral, expensive war

ran the deficit through the roof, stacked the Supreme Court with right-wing theocrats, covered up for pedophiles, wallowed in corruption, and basically lied through their teeth to the American People for the past 6 years.

But Democrats have faults, too! John Kerry fucked up a joke!

[blm]

13. Y'know, Leno and Letterman botch a joke EVERY night and they get no grief even

though they get paid MILLIONS to not botch a joke.

Kerry drops a pronoun and it gets the amount of attention usually paid only to Democrats who drop their pants.
