Drudge: John Kerry bombshell

"Kerry called secret service agent 'son of a bitch' after slope spill"

"Dem presidential candidate John Kerry called his secret service agent a "son of a bitch" after the agent inadvertently moved into his path during a ski mishap in Idaho, sending Kerry falling into the snow."

Holy crap! Drudge sure has the goods on Kerry! Kerry swore at a secret service agent! The world is going to end! Will somebody THINK ABOUT THE CHILDREN!!!!

Such language from a presidential nominee.

<sarcasm off>

And this is news? Boy are we in trouble!

:shrug:

drudge must be crying himself to sleep

This is the kind of "reporting" that makes me optimistic, because (1) it's bullshit, and (2) people aren't taking these provocateurs seriously anymore.

Look at the crap they've been floating lately. Botox. Lies about a bimbo eruption. Fake Fonda photo (along w/a real photo that showed, um, nothing important). Swearing at a Secret Service agent. Attempt to smear with VVAW ties, despite facts showing JK's repudiation of radical tactics. One fellow crewman contradicting 9 others. Emails falsely suggesting JK and THK influence Heinz company's policies. All debunked. Haven't taken off like the Gore and Clinton smears did.

Meanwhile, Kerry is embraced by veterans, including a Republican whose life he saved. McCain sticks up for him. JMHO, but pictures of him snowboarding look like good PR to me (of course, I get the Segway picture in my mind every time), just like the hockey game pix.

The game is just starting, but the attempt at shaping the narrative isn't working so well for the Smear Team. Their smears are being debunked almost immediately, and they're not sticking the way the Clinton and Gore smears did -- people are waking up?

her life. To me, that's human depravity, mocking the condemned.

Matt Drudge is a hack. He's worse than a hack. He's Matt Drudge.

"Please," Bush whimpers, his lips pursed in mock desperation, "don't kill me."



Republican presidential candidate Gary Bauer criticized Gov. George W. Bush Tuesday for making fun of an executed Texas woman in an interview Bush gave to Talk magazine.

"I think it is nothing short of unbelievable that the governor of a major state running for president thought it was acceptable to mock a woman he decided to put to death," Bauer said of Bush.

Bush is portrayed in Talk as ridiculing pickax killer Karla Faye Tucker of Houston for an interview she did with CNN broadcaster Larry King shortly before she was executed last year. Just before her execution date, Tucker appealed for clemency on the grounds that she had become a born-again Christian.

" `Please,' Bush whimpers, his lips pursed in mock desperation, `don't kill me,' "

Excerpts from The Houston Chronicle August 10, 1999

http://www.ccadp.org/bushkills.htm

Bush is diagnosable with a MAJOR character disorder.

Alinsky wrote of his time doing sociology at a prison where executions were carried out, and how, by the time The Hour rolled around, the executioner, the guards, and even the warden would all be half in the bag because of how horrible they all felt at having to kill a human being, no matter what the guy's crime.

and if we were to give psychological tests to Presidential candidates, Bush would be committed and medicated in order to protect Bush from himself and from doing harm to others.

This is one of the few guys in the U.S. who doesn't have to worry about submitting to drug, psychological or lie detector tests in order to get a job.

And what happened, strangely enough, during the one time when he was compelled to be tested for drugs?

what bush called the guy who pushed him into that pretzel that attacked him.:bounce:

I thought maybe it was Jim Beam, but it could have been Jack Daniel...

that he switched brands.

We can't have Presidents that cuss when they get injured! Sure glad Drudge is on top of this :eyes:

More than likely when the SS Agent swerved in front of him he said "Son of a Bitch" because he thought he would crash into him. Most folks would swear if someone cut them off when they are coming down a mountain.

No big deal, here.

At least accord to ABC's The Note. The quote came AFTER he fell and reads: "I don't fall down. That son of a bitch ran into me."

Now the question, is it a big deal? Eh, not really, though it is a bit odd to curse someone there to protect your life for a minor mistake. Its not enough to elect or not elect someone, but it will still probably hurt Kerry, which means its good for Bush.

-DW

it was reported that he fell at least 6 times. this won't get picked up anywhere, you think?? ..nah


thought he was going to get away from it all?-
"There were some hecklers, too, such as a few children who murmured, "George Bush, George Bush" when Kerry walked by. And as the senator sat down to his lunch -- a bowl of chili and a POWERade energy drink, totaling $9.10 -- a man in line for the Challenger ski lift yelled, "Hey, John, what world leader talked to you?" -- echoing Republican attacks over Kerry's refusal to identify leaders from overseas whom he said support his candidacy." http://www.boston.com/news/politics/president/kerry/articles/2004/03/19/hot_off_campaign_trail_kerry_hits_slopes_in_idaho/

Yeah, the guys verbally attacking Kerry while he is on a well deserved vacation should really lay off. But, I imagine that Bush would get similar taunts if he didn't take his vacation in the seclusion of his Crawford ranch.

They're petty, but to be expected during a campaign in such a divided time.

-DW

nerve to go out in public.

an Jounalist's Panel on "Media and the Election" in NewHampshire on C-Span and he said: John Kerry and Howard Dean aren't "religious enough" to win the Presidency," when asked which of the Democrats running (at that time it was all of them)could win against Bush! He said, "Clinton won as a Democrat because he was from the South and could go to Black Churches and people knew he was comfortable with his religion." (paraphrase there but almost exact).

I posted it on DU because I was shocked at this guy. He's NOT pro-Democrat and the "The Note" sometimes appears to be fair because it's Washington Gossip and insider gabbing. But, they have an agenda and it isn't to get a Democrat in the WH.

This is just Repug Garbage. I believe the whole incident is distorted.

And, I was not a Kerry supporter during the primaries. So, take my comment for what it's worth. But, be careful what you believe from some NYT's reporters and The Note. Just a caution. :-(

I've seen this guy, and he seems to be working against Kerry. And ABC News has been atrocious in general this whole campaign. If this story is coming from ABC, then I assume they got it wrong.

the same way "major league asshole" and "Fuck Saddam! We're taking him out!" hurt Bush?

How about when Bush swore at Al Hunt in front of his 4-yr.-old daughter?

How about when Bush answered a reporter's question about what he talked to his father about and Bush answered, "Pussy."

Etc.

Hmmm, wonder why those remarks aren't Drudge "bombshells"?

And why do you bother with Drudge, anyway?

There are people you call S.O.B.s when you are angry.

Then there are the people you call S.O.B.s when you are kidding.

Either way, much ado about absolutely nothing.

Did that make Drugde? I'm just so fed up with the double standards and the republican attack squads and the vast right wing conspiracy.

unlike Shrubie, who's just a Bush league asshole.

XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX WED SEPT 07, 2000 17:28:49 ET XXXXX

NYT REPORTER CRITICAL OF BUSH MOUTH WAS CITED FOR 'LOUD, PROFANE, ABUSIVE MANNER' AGAINST CAPITOL POLICE!

Controversy continues to swirl around comments made over the weekend by Republican presidential hopeful George W. Bush -- and the NEW YORK TIMES reporter he called a "major league asshole". http://www.drudgereport.com/mat28ss.htm

really quick to add to chimp's statement that the reporter's "yeah a BIGTIME asshole". :silly:

Maybe after Matt breaks up with his boyfriend, he might wanna got on the JK trail and take pictures of JK's manly physique.

Even Matt can dream.

Nothing about more jobs, better wages, Peace, balanced budgets, wise spending, etc etc

All they can is whine. I knew kids like that in High School

If not, why not?

If his followers knew he was gay, he'd be killed.

When I mash my thumb with a hammer or take a tumble on my skis at 45 MPH, I'm on record as yelling "Son of a Bitch!" quite loudly and in the presence of others....so why would Drudge assume that Kerry's yelling this at an agent?

If they catch him yelling at hand tools he may as well write his concession speech! :scared:

that's why.

I keep sending him the Bush AWOL and abortion stories but he never runs them. I guess he is right when he says he represents the new media, lap dogs for draft dodging republicans.

Bush at another fundraiser:

BUSH: Senator Kerry wants to cut back on ALL military weapons and let our soldiers without even a change in underwear. Now he said that all Secret Service agents are sons of bitches! How can anyone running for President think that our security and protection are seen by him as "sons of bitches". I met a man who is in the Secret Service who is absolutely appalled that Kerry would refer to all security officials that are protecting children, women and guys as nothing more than sons-of-bitches.

As I look at the Secret Service offiicials who are protecting me, I ask them to think about what Kerry said.

I never thought the news reports ("Counterbias Briefs") at my site, modelled after the Drudge Report, would actually be BETTER and more newsworthy than Drudge's crap itself!

Just yesterday I scooped up a story about Hannity calling Michael Moore an idiot, which itself is more newsworthy.

Kerry is stealing some of Bush's "average guy" thunder.

n/t

I thought it was a joke. Guess not.

At least he didn't say "f*cking son of a bitch."

Now THAT would really be disrespectful to the emperor.

In hindsight as a presidential candidate, he probably just should have said, "ouch."

Bottom line: this is just stupid.

to pounce on.

Considering the Secret Service's record protecting Presidents and candidates from Massachusetts you can't really blame Kerry, can you?

like, "I don't fall, that SOB knocked me down" he said, laughing and pointing.

Obviously Drudge is going to spin it the other way.

but the Media Whores are Not going to tell us that...we already know from past experience.

I still think Kerry's photo ops on this trip were a mistake Public Relations wise, though. He doesn't come off serious enough running around doing all these activities that "have the appearance" of "super jock." So, he definitely left himself open for some sneering on this one and so the whore press and cable smarms saw the opening and are smearing away by distorting or misrepresenting his comments.

He should have just down some light downhill, and spent quiet time instead of running around looking like macho man. He left himself open but these whore press comments need to be debunked. I imagine someone in his campaign will get the truth out on this.

edited: typo's

that Kerry was on the slopes "apparently trying to appeal to the hipsters," and her male sidekick agreed.

Did Kerry suddenly take up snowboarding as a campaign gimmick? No wonder he's falling down!

(Did they ever say "Bush is clearing brush at his phony ranch purchased as a campaign gimmick to appeal to stereotypes of rugged rednecked outdoorsmen?" Because that would be true.)

Anyway, thank goodness for Drudge or we might have voted for somebody who uses naughty language which could lead to deficits, unemployment, and wars.

Lets see

"Son of a bitch"

"Asshole"

"Son of a bitch"

"Asshole"

Eenie meenie meinie moe........ :think:

I remember seeing it happen. You could read his lips.

I didn't care because, at the time, I remember thinking that the reporter probably was! I also thought * would be punished by the media for the gaff, but not so! Guess I screwed up again.

To this day, "Clymer" is synonymous with "A$$hole" in conservative circles.

that this was grossly misreported in some way. But that won't keep it from getting repeated over and over, like all the Gore stuff. Years from now, the Daily Howler will be keeping track of how the whores are still telling the "son of a bitch" story.

And Barbara Bush refused to raise her kids properly.......I say there are bigger fish to fry. ;) :evilgrin:

Whoever made them didn't even use photochop, that looks like MS paint or something...

Move over...let me into that booth! Gawd...we can't have people like that running our country and the free world!

Listen, I am 100% Democratic. Never voted for anyone other than a Democrat EVER.
But John Kerry can't behave this way. It plays right into the way that the administration will portray him: rich kid who thinks he's better than everyone else. He can't cuss out the SS. It's just stupid to do it.

Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear.

However, you're right about it from the perspective that they are trying to reinforce the idea that John Kerry is a snob who thinks he's better than everyone else. That much is true.

As if Bush is from Texas and went to a state school. LOL!

Read the other thread on it.

because he spilled my orange-banana-strawberry juice on the floor. :grr:

Am I going to hell? Or am I going to get in deep trouble saying that?

Drudge is an idiot.

I don't know about hell, but you might get soap in your mouth!
