WERE ANY OF HIS WAR WOUNDS SELF-INFLICTED?

Kerry to Accept Nomination at Convention (Ron Fournier, AP, 5/26/04)

Bowing to pressure, John Kerry decided Wednesday to accept the nomination at the Democratic presidential convention in July, scuttling a plan to delay the formality so he could narrow President Bush's public money advantage.

"Boston is the place where America's freedom began, and it's where I want the journey to the Democratic nomination to be completed," Kerry said in a statement released by his campaign. "On Thursday, July 29, with great pride, I will accept my party's nomination for president in the city of Boston. From there we will begin our journey to a new America."

Now he's going out of his way to invent issues to flip-flop on.

Rats. I was hoping Kerry would delay acceptance, thereby cementing his position as Worst Campaigner Ever. If that had happened, Kerry would be to campaigns as Jimmy Carter was to Presidencies.

I'm delighted to hear he's going to journey to a new America. Hopefully it's far away from the current America.

I vote for Mars, no make that Venus, it's a tad warmer there.

Hey, if Kerry actually did go to Mars, and ran for President upon his return, he'd get my support...

Vietnam war hero AND Mars Mission crewmember ?

Who can top that ?

OK, Ted Williams could've, but I'm not voting for him until they thaw out his head, revive him, and attach it to a shiny robot body.
