horse's ass

I took a day to mourn my passing into what I'll refer to as 'my fourth decade,' and look what I missed: that idiot John Kerry putting his foot into his mouth (yet again) with insensitive, insulting and inaccurate comments about our troops.

Kerry, in Los Angeles campaigning for gubernatorial candidate Phil Angelides, swerved away from his prepared remarks at that bastion of higher education, Pasadena City College, to say 'if you don't study hard you'll end up in Iraq.'

Way to support the troops Senator Kerry! There they are in Iraq, fighting and dying, defending your liberty and mine, while simultaneously trying to support Iraq's fledging democracy, and you publicly declare them to all be morons.

Let's recall with clarity that this is the same Senator who spoke not long ago of our troops as being 'terrorists' for purportedly storming into Iraqi homes in the dead of night.

This is what the Democrats think of the American military, my friends. John Kerry. Harry Reid. Nancy Pelosi. Ted Kennedy. Dick Durbin -- Durbin compared our troops to Nazis. I think its important to know (and remember) what the Democrats think of our troops, and how little they think of the War On Terror, as we go into the voting booth next Tuesday.

One can only hope that Kerry, after famously screwing up in '04, has screwed the Democrats midterm election chances in '06.
