Kerry, Kerry, quite contrary

On Monday, Kerry was in California, stumping for Democratic gubernatorial candidate Phil Angelides. At an event at Pasadena City College intended to highlight Democratic education policies, Kerry told students, "You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well." But, he added, "If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."

Yeah, Ted blogged about this earlier too. He ended his post with, "It takes a man with a unique speaking ability to so quickly offend both the U.S. military and college students." Pretty funny.

That was such a low blow on our military men like my brother who joined up while he was still in High School. It wasn't because he couldn't go to college, but because he saw the need to defend our country in a time of war. That is a great message (in the pic) to send to him. I knew I didn't like him....okay okay i am getting off my high horse now...

Oh, did you have this picture up before? I completely missed it the first time -- or else I would've just pointed to your blog rather than posting it myself. :-) Opps!

Kerry's an idiot. And I voted for him. But if you actually watch the tape you can tell he's referring to Pres. Bush and not our men and women in the armed services like my brother in law. He just has no sense of humor and can't tell a joke. On another note, Kerry's grades at Yale were actually worst than President Bush...now that is telling.
