With a Senior Senator- named John Kerry- representing this state & make such an a-- out of himself on national tv.


He finally did make a half as-ed apololgy, saying he was trying to make a joke-Who is he kidding-- he is such a jerk- always was & obviously always will be.


How can you make a sick joke about the military in Iraq---Boy Mr Kerry should watch his back- I would'nt blame someone for taking a pop shot at him- What an idiot!!


My Friday grumble!!

i do agree should not have attempted a joke like that. i thought he was taking a stab at gdubya- that he should get educated and do his homework so U.S. soldiers would not be stuck in iraq.but it came out wrong and backfired. i'm sure he meant no disrespect to the soldiers as he should know many of them do have a college background.
yes...he should have apologized immediately with an explanation instead of falling prey to more mudslinging. sad what politics is theese days. getting worse every year.

don't be emabrrassed...we have ones like that here in pa,too! tuesday is election day...i plan on voting against the ones i dislike.

intersting article on the recruiting.i wonder where the bbc got its info.of course they can't fill the ranks. not many want to sign up because they do not want to go to war.several of my son's friends have joined the coast guard because they realized they can serve and stay stateside out of harm's way nad get college paid for.

they should come to small town pa where we have lost way more than 4 soldiers since the beginning of this war. one town alone lost 6 in one battle.there are many servicemen from pa over seas- iraq and afghanistan- they seem to forget about the ones still in bosnia & kuwait.many of whom graduated from high school and or college. the guardsmen & reserves were forced to leave college to serve active duty.

my son is starting his recruit into the air force and he has to show medical release from his docs and was told he would be getting a full check up from the military.they really can't hide medical problems like asthma or adh. there are laws against that
