Kerry.
Why does John Kerry not want us to own cats???? Oh, yes, he's talking about Bengal tigers now, but what about that slippery language, other "big cats"????? How big, John Kerry! HOW BIG???!!!!k

(20,226 posts)that there might be even one single individual so stupid and so unsophisticated that they would fall for such an intelligence-insulting scam.
Of course we have all heard it before. There were people on this forum who compared those who are skeptical of the whole "war on terror" meme as Neville Chamberlain signing the "Peace in our time" document in Munich.
When we see a country armed to the teeth with the most advanced military and weapon technology in the world already invade other countries as it prepares to invade more - then we can talk of Nevelle's "Munich moment."
It makes my jaw drop that Kerry could say something so stupid and engage in such unsophisticated propaganda.

(20,226 posts)my life since the McGovern campaign in 1972 and I actually maxed out on campaign donations to Kerry in 2004. I never imagined he was McGovern but I thought he was more sophisticated and more honest than what we have seen in the past week.

(20,226 posts)- a politician using dishonest rhetoric, yes - but Pol Pot? Whatever DU members are saying that are really even more removed from mainstream America as the fringe Democrats who support military intervention in Syria.
