John Kerry Calls on Rumsfeld to Investigate Why Troops Lack Armor
John Kerry Calls on Rumsfeld to Investigate Why Troops Lack Armor


A quick visit to John Kerry's Senate website gives us an idea what John Kerry has been up to in the past few weeks since the election... Too bad the mainstream media is not reporting this! But then it is no small wonder, they failed to report so much of what John Kerry was saying during the campaign.

1. john kerry is trying very hard to stay on the spot light... he should have
done that on November 3rd...instead he CONCEDED o, so prematurely!
It is now too late, as far as I am concerned... so, as far as I am concerned john and teresa heinz kerry might as well just shut up and put up.

2. Who cares why, John?
The fact is that there are not enough armored vehicles in the theater. The reason they do not have them is that Scummy is an incompetent boob.

3. Since McCain and a few other Republicans have said the same
I guess Kerry thought it safe enough for his cushy career, to jump on that bandwagon also. Who wouldn't call for Rumsfeld to "investigate"?

6. Kerry said it before McCain and any other Republican said it
he said it during the campaign also.

4. People need to get it
1. Kerry's concession is not binding!
2. If the margain was smaller, he would have done what he did (conceding).
3. Imagine a whole lot of right wing fundamentalists pissed off (because Kerry did not concede) and out in the streets with their assault weapons!
4. Kerry offered this country a whole lot more than most folks who were ABB gave him credit for! Perhaps if people listened to what he had to say, instead of complaining constantly, the results might have been different!

7. No investigation is needed
The answer is 1.) incompetence and 2.) arrogance.
