Kerry Passes Up Terror Briefing: 'i Just Haven't Had Time'
 

From Larry King Live:


Just hours before attending an all-star celebrity fundraising concert in New York, Dem presidential candidate John Kerry revealed how has been too busy for a real-time national security briefing.

"I just haven't had time," Kerry explained in an interview.

Kerry made the startling comments on CNN's LARRY KING LIVE Thursday night.

KING: News of the day, Tom Ridge warned today about al Qaeda plans of a large-scale attack on the United States. Didn't increase the -- you see any politics in this? What's your reaction?

KERRY: Well, I haven't been briefed yet, Larry. They have offered to brief me. I just haven't had time.

He finds time to give his new love interest a neck massage on National TV.

But no time for terror awareness.


Yep.

I'll accept that he's been too busy to get a briefing; after all, he's been too busy to represent his own constituents in the People's Republic of Massachusetts for the last hundred-odd votes (and counting?) in the United States Senate. I can't complain about that....

CAN'T KEEP HANDS OFF EACH OTHER

Hugs, kisses to the cheek, affectionate touching of the face, caressing of the back, grabbing of the arm, fingers to the neck, rubbing of the knees...

John Kerry and John Edwards can't keep their hands off each other!

In the past 48 hours, "candidate handling" has become the top buzz on the trail.

News photographers have been going wild with photos of the two Johns.

"I've been covering Washington and politics for 30 years. I can say I've never seen this much touching between two men, publicly," e-mailed one wire photographer.

When asked if the Johns are acting out a cynical focus group series of poses -- perhaps to show warmth to the chilly Bush/Cheney -- a Kerry spokesperson explained: "I think we're just seeing genuine affection between them."

But the spokesperson added, "I hope we do not see them wearing matching outfits when they ride bikes this weekend."

Steve;

This morning's news up here was that Woopie Goldberg embarassed herself, the Democratic Party and women in general with her routine on stage last night. It was waaay past blue.

According to her 'spokesperson', her intent was to make it so blue, no one would dare report it. It focused mainly on why GWB did the things he does, and blamed his actions on his repressed pedophilia and his having had multiple surgical removals of various sexual organs.

I guess she was not-so-quietly hustled off the stage.

That was followed by Kim Basinger saying she would "sell anything I have, except my kids, to get Bush out."

Hmmm. I wonder if she was working Times Square later that evening.

Not even gonna say anything about this one....except that it's gotta be a "PhotoShop Job" http://www.pelicanparts.com/support/smileys/a_pukey.gif

Kim Basinger???? Didn't her ex Alec Baldwin spout some BS about if Gore wasn't the president, then he would be leaving the country? Last I heard he was still here....what a bunch of hot air these people have!

Randy;

Yes, exactly.

singpilot: no, not exactly, not at all.

Baldwin never said it.

This is more propaganda endlessly repeated by radio talk shows. Neither Baldwin nor Streisand said they'd leave the country if Bush were elected. this has already been posted in OT, but it seems like every thread now repeats and duplicates the same stuff of every other thread...

Eddie Vetter did say he'd leave the country, though.

I was watching Edwards and Kerry on TV the other day getting al lovey dovy, and my kid yelled out"Dad, I think he's gonna pork him"

Tech;

I know this has been discussed before. I thought we came to the conclusion that Alec Baldwin did say that he would have to (appease his conscience) leave the coutry if Bush was elected. He later (after the election) said he didn't mean that literally.

I doubt Striesand would ever have said that.

I was more exactly affirming that it was THAT Kim Basinger.

singpilot: I understand.

The Baldwin comment was derived from a gossip columnist's interview with Kim B. where she characterized a comment Alec made as 'meaning to her' that he would leave. Alec was never quoted directly until he was asked to clarify by another gossip columnist.

So, by the tenor of this thread, I guess now the Right is getting ready to float some kind of 'bisexuality rumor?'

What ever it takes. No lie too big. No stretch too far.

Classic example--Gore "invented" the internet.

This is my favorite Alec Baldwin quote. I know, I know, it was a dramatization...But only as a cloak to hide his real feelings.

"I am thinking to myself, in other countries they are laughing at us 24 hours a day and I’m thinking to myself, if we were in other countries, we would all right now, all of us together, [starts to shout] all of us together would go down to Washington and we would stone Henry Hyde to death! We would stone him to death! [crowd cheers] Wait! Shut up! Shut up! No shut up! I’m not finished. We would stone Henry Hyde to death and we would go to their homes and we’d kill their wives and their children. We would kill their families. [stands up, yelling] What is happening in this country? What is happening? UGHHH!"

Yep, gotta love them liberals...all tolerant and peaceful. What is it about screaming hysterically and being a liberal?

That explains it, you are a fool.

lol...wow...(Bush lied about "imminent")...the hypocrisy.

THE STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS

"This is about imminent threat."
White House spokesman Scott McClellan, 2/10/03

Iraq "threatens the United States of America."
Vice President Cheney, 1/30/03

Iraq poses "terrible threats to the civilized world."
Vice President Dick Cheney, 1/30/03

"Well, of course he is.”
White House Communications Director Dan Bartlett responding to the question “is Saddam an imminent threat to U.S. interests, either in that part of the world or to Americans right here at home?”, 1/26/03

"Iraq poses a serious and mounting threat to our country. His regime has the design for a nuclear weapon, was working on several different methods of enriching uranium, and recently was discovered seeking significant quantities of uranium from Africa."
Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, 1/29/03

"The world is also uniting to answer the unique and urgent threat posed by Iraq whose dictator has already used weapons of mass destruction to kill thousands."
President Bush, 11/23/02

"There are many dangers in the world, the threat from Iraq stands alone because it gathers the most serious dangers of our age in one place. Iraq could decide on any given day to provide a biological or chemical weapon to a terrorist group or individual terrorists."
President Bush, 10/7/02

"The Iraqi regime is a threat of unique urgency."
President Bush, 10/2/02

"No terrorist state poses a greater or more immediate threat to the security of our people and the stability of the world than the regime of Saddam Hussein in Iraq."
Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, 9/19/02

"Some have argued that the nuclear threat from Iraq is not imminent - that Saddam is at least 5-7 years away from having nuclear weapons. I would not be so certain. And we should be just as concerned about the immediate threat from biological weapons. Iraq has these weapons."
Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, 9/18/02

"Iraq is busy enhancing its capabilities in the field of chemical and biological agents, and they continue to pursue an aggressive nuclear weapons program. These are offensive weapons for the purpose of inflicting death on a massive scale, developed so that Saddam Hussein can hold the threat over the head of any one he chooses. What we must not do in the face of this mortal threat is to give in to wishful thinking or to willful blindness."
Vice President Dick Cheney, 8/29/02

“The danger to our country is grave. The danger to our country is growing. The Iraqi regime possesses biological and chemical weapons. The Iraqi regime is building the facilities necessary to make more biological and chemical weapons. And according to the British government, the Iraqi regime could launch a biological or chemical attack in as little as 45 minutes after the order were given.”
President Bush, 09/26/02

Alec Baldwin isn't leaving?

Whew! I'll sleep better tonight knowing another Hollywood actor is still out there and watching out for us peasants ..... :rolleyes:

Never really been a Baldwin fan until I saw him on SNL. Thought he did pretty well. At least better than Janet Jackson & her "cork soaking" performance.
