Norquist: Obama-“John Kerry with a tan.”
Norquist dropped by The Times’ Washington bureau today and, as part of his negative critique of Obama’s liberal stances on economic issues and other matters, he termed the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee “John Kerry with a tan.”

That was a talking point that McCain was trying to make stick.

10. ewwww
Why can't they just say "John Kerry...from Hyde Park." Then they could get their stupid little "elitist" dig in with out outing their racial tendencies.

14. Me: Norquist - "Bush with no Dick
Edited on Fri Jun-27-08 10:29 AM by ProSense
Cheney."

On edit: I couldn't resist.

The fact that Norquist thinks his comment is an insult proves he's an idiot.

18. I was asking my nine y.o. about a girl in her swimming lessons
class.
She asked me if it was the light girl like her, or the girl with the tan (Hispanic). Somehow, I just don't feel the same innocence with this comment..:sarcasm:

21. Wasn't Grover Implicated In The Delay & Abramoff Scandal?
I am sure John McCain will embrace his endorsement.

28. I hear you, except that is not what Norquist is saying.
It's the elitist meme with a bigoted twist. Despicable.

29. Yep, and what's amazing is that the offender is still around here.
You'd think that would be grounds for a tombstone.

31. That one has managed to allude a TS so far. I'm wondering if after today
(the "Unity" rally) if the TS's will increase; I think they certainly should.

Some of the stuff I've seen is just sickeing.

32. I agree
That one especially has been baiting and attacking "liberals" and "progressives" all over the board in addition to the bile they spewed about Obama. Considering the makeup of the member base on this board those sorts of attacks are no different than a Freepers coming over here and trolling IMO.

34. I suspect a lot of voters wish they could have their 2004 vote back...
All the Kerry hate from 2004 is probably not there anymore among independents and moderate Republicans. Even if you think Kerry "looks French" or whatever idiocy swayed voters in 2004, Bush "looks incompetent" by comparison.

35. I like to think of Grover Norquist as "Liberace with a wife."
That's a quote from John Avarosis at AmericaBlog.

A Palestinian wife, BTW, which make the tan comment a little weird.
