Obama-Backing Senator Makes Crack About McCain Wearing Adult Diapers
October 20, 2008 2:59 PM
At a business summit on energy, Politickerma.com reports, a prominent supporter of Sen. Barack Obama, D-Mass., made a crack about Sen. John McCain's age.
"These are the exciting last two week moments of the presidential campaign," said Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., today in Cambridge, Mass. "So it's a very special time. I can't wait for it to be over. I am so tired of the press' silly questions that they ask along the way. And cable television which reduces everything to stupidity - the lowest common denominator of conflict."
"I don't know if any of you know what it's like. I do, obviously," Kerry told the crowd. "I've been asked all of those brilliant questions that were repeated this year...Barack got asked the famous boxers or briefs question. I was tempted to say commando...
"Then they asked McCain and McCain said, ‘Depends,'" Kerry said.

That is why Kerry is a loser and always will be.

It must be Kerry's time of the month. I though women his age were thru all that. I guess it 'depends'.

Now I remember why this guy lost. What a dimwitted jerk. He should apologize.

Andrew,
Yeah even the slightest reference to Obama's background or his inexperience is racist.
While Obama supporters like Kerry can throw vicious insults on McCain and make fun of seniors etc.
Funny the media never seems to get it.

You can't blame Kerry. So much has been made of George Bush not being the sharpest knife in the drawer, but the fact of the matter is that George Bush graduated ahead of John Kerry from their joint alma mater, Yale.
If that wasn't enough, John has had to suffer through years of being cuckolded by his wife and benefactor, Theresa Heinz. He was a winner in getting to keep his family name and she'll even use it every election cycle without too much pleading.

What if i made a joke saying well barrack doesn't want to lease all that land to the oil companies because he just wants to play basketball on it. Or how about this: i love eating vegetables but barrack for some reason will only eat bananas for some reason. Sounds racist doesn't it? should it sound racist? when people make low blows like this it just makes them look foolish. Leave Kerry and his pitiful out of this he is a no name now.

===8 YEAR LATER AND KERRY IS STILL A LOSER ===

You used essentially the same joke as a post title eight days ago. It's not worth blogging about once, let alone twice. Talk about reducing things to the lowest common denominator.

Gee Ed, when did you get back from Nam? I got back in 1972. I was "lucky" enough to come back through San Francisco International Airport. Your so called "mythical hippies" were right there, and it was not a welcome home parade.

Gee, thanks Ed for the great analysis of the 2004 election. No, I don't think we were aware that Sen. Kerry was "actually" elected! Guess we haven't studied the news quite as well as you to know the about all the stealing and illegitimacy.
Wake up and grow up.

A Veteran said:
I was a memnber of the VFW the same year I left the service. So that isn't true.
Just a note: I and 3 of my fellow Vietnam Veterans tried to join the VFW in Andalusia Al in 1974. We were refused membership. We were told that since most of the members of that post were WWII vets, that we would not fit in. I have been asked many times since then to join, but I just didn't feel like I would "fit in".

Actually Kerry was elected in 2004, unless you consider a stolen election to be legitimate.
Sad to hear the tired old lies about the mythical hippies spiting on all the returning veterans.
Thanks to war hero John Kerry, Vietnam was finally over by 1973, at least for the US.

KR asked:
"Is Obama going to condemn Kerry for his remarks."
Fraid not, he would have to understand kerry's remarks before he could condemn them.

Typical lack of class, of the socialist democrat party.
Posted by: Mike | Oct 20, 2008 11:07:08 PM
Seems everyone can make a joke on these blogs and call McCain nasty old man etc, but let Kerry make a joke and everyone gets spastic, lighten up, it was a old person joke!!!
Posted by: Jules | Oct 20, 2008 10:43:55 PM
Kerry has no class. Also, a man with prostrate problems is more likely to wear DEPENDS. And, what does that have to do with being President?????????????
Posted by: drno | Oct 20, 2008 10:41:11 PM
Kerry is a loser. He needs to be voted out of the Senate. He not only disrespected McCain, but all senior citizens.

Is there a 'depends' for the mouth?
Posted by: Anton Le Vey | Oct 20, 2008 10:35:41 PM
John Kerry was born in 1943. That makes him 65...isn't that "old" too?
Geez, leftist hypocrisy again. No surprise here.

Is Obama going to condemn Kerry for his remarks.
Funny Obama complains about negative campaigning when his supporters like Kerry are some of the nastiest and hate filled bunch in American politics.
