CNN Is Covering Kerry Like He's O.J.
And I mean that LITERALLY.

Kerry's on his way to voting, and the jackasses at CNN have been following him from inside his SUV driving down the highway and into the polling place via helicopter.

EXACTLY like the O.J. pursuit.

No symbolism there, eh, kids?

Pinheads.

2. You must be young. This is how JFK was covered in 1960.
It's really spooky seeing the same thing on TV today.

5. They really covered JFK like that?
Doesn't seem to fit in the black and white static images I've seen. I'm not doubting you at all...it's just interesting!

6. Is he in a whtie bronco?
And is Howard Dean in there with him on a cell phone saying to the media, "This is Howard... You need to back off! What do you mean Howard who? You know me!"

I seem to recall that was what happened with O.J. and some other football player in the bronco with him who was pissed that he wasn't immediately recognized.

8. Kerry's going to murder Bush and Cheney in the polls today.
So I say the symbolism is fitting.
