New Abbott & Costello Comedy routine

To me, Kerry and Edwards sound like a stale Abbott and Costello Comedy Routine with their great sense of outrage and complaints against the Bush malAdministration NOW.

Kerry, Edwards Criticize Bush Over Response to Hurricane

By Dan Balz
Washington Post Staff Writer
Tuesday, September 20, 2005;

"President Bush came under withering criticism for his handling of Hurricane Katrina yesterday, with Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) charging that the storm exposed the administration's incompetence and ideological blinders and former senator John Edwards (D-N.C.) asserting that even in its response, the administration backs policies that support the privileged over the working poor."

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/09/19/AR2005091901427.html

My wish is that they both shut up and wither away after what they did to the Democratic Party and all the poor and black Democrats of Ohio who stood for many many hours in the cold and freezing weather last November - while these two just packed up and went HOME.

Guess the best place for the two of them is now, HOME!!

1. And, whose side are you on?
Kerry has been aggressive in his attacks on Bush for some time now, and his responsiveness to events has been impressive.

So, you'd prefer that he just shut up and go away?

Pardon me if I disagree.

7. Interesting how you lay the blame at the feet of Kerry & Edwards.



I would like to know how you feel Katherine Harris and the Supreme Court factor in when it comes to placing blame? I know it was different election, but certainly Bush would not have had a second term if he did not have a first term.

8. I lay the blame on all Americans

and especially Kerry and Edwards who were given the task of replacing this corrupt malAdministration.

They failed. Why?

Remember that Daily Mirror Headline?

Remember it well!

2. I have to admit......
I was devastated when Kerry conceded so soon. Although I admired him for his service and intelligence, I was floored when he did that, and then I got pissed.

I just can't enthusiastically get behind him anymore. We need all the help we can get but there's no room at the top for someone that gave up so easily.

He should have gone out kicking and screaming. We would have backed him up BIG-TIME from Ohio to the Supreme Court! I felt like he abandoned us.

Damn, this post just made me sad.

5. Yes, I am sad for the US troops

and the innocent Iraqis who have died since last November and since march 2003 and since 1991 because of the sanctions!!

And I am sad for all those poor who have died needlessly in New Orleans.

And I am sad because Bush and his malAdministration have caused havoc to the world.

And it continues because Americans have no spine.

Come 2006, after they are whipped by election fraud, the Dems will still be talking glibly about winning 2008!

They talk of a tomorrow which will nver come!

See what Congressman Conyers Jr. has written today about the IDs and what your Dem ex-president Carter was complicit with along with James baker III.

Your country is today a dictatorship and you guys still don't get it!!

9. "while these two just packed up and went HOME"
I've yet to see a rebuttal to the charge in the last sentence:

"My wish is that they both shut up and wither away after what they did to the Democratic Party and all the poor and black Democrats of Ohio who stood for many many hours in the cold and freezing weather last November - while these two just packed up and went HOME."
