3. Bob Kerrey is all about Bob Kerrey
I've watched him over several days, and he always "toots his own horn". He also gives speeches, he doesn't really ask questions.
Something about him is just creepy to me.

6. The man has been promised something
He is blaming Clinton for not going to war over the shooting down of the Blackhawk by Al Queda. The son of a bitch was in the Senate when Clinton was getting screwed by the Repukes and did nothing about taking care of the American people instead of investigating Clinton's penis. If the Dems had any backbone they would come out swinging and bring up how the Repuke Congress and Senate did not do the work of the American people but did the dirty work of the RW propaganda machine and they should start bringing up all the senate quips and quotes of the repukes about wag the dog and every piece of anti terrorism legislation that was voted down that Clinton wanted.

4. Me, Me
I don't know much, just general impressions and bits of info: Something about war atrocities. Impression that he's anti-CLINTON. Some posters here have defended him, perhaps know of some higher strategy he is pursuing, but what I've seen myself grates almost every time. While I wanted them to be tough on Condi, his over the top whining about "It's NOT FAIR, don't FILIBUSTER ME" did us more harm than good.

7. I'll Defend Him...
He's a maveric..... A Democratic John McCain....


And he was the first Medal Of Honor winner to serve in the Senate since the Civil War...


As for war atrocities, it's tough to be a warrior and not get blood on your hands....

As for his work on the 9-11 panel he's asking the tough questions...

11. Thanks. "maveric..... A Democratic John McCain" Sez a Lot
McCAIN doesn't JUST grate on Shrub, also on others. I guess that's what maverics do.

14. His ego just made him miss a huge point
He was so intent on proving that the CIA was too uncommunicative that he missed a huge opening when Tenet said: "just because the info's not in the NEI doesn't mean the white house wasn't told."

Instead of saying, "Oh, really so the white house knew all this stuff?" Kerry just kept on going, trying to make tenet admit Kerry was right.

Bonehead.

16. He left the Senate and now is behaving like a RW Bush supporter. Someone
got to him, and promised him something. His behavior since he left the Senate has been very strange. Why did he leave in the first place? hmmm?
