Lawyer-Wearing-Yarmulka

I'm going to give the benefit of doubt to Kerry and believe him that when he said "I can't overstress the importance of a great education. Do you know where you end up if you don't study, if you aren't smart, if you're intellectually lazy? You get stuck in Iraq", what he really meant to say was I can't overstress the importance of a great education. Do you know where you end up if you don't study, if you aren't smart, if you're intellectually lazy? You end up getting us stuck in a war in Iraq."

What he said was a horrible insult to all U.S. military personel. What he wanted to say was a horrible insult to the President. Not nearly as bad as insulting everyone in the military, but pretty bad nontheless. Not exactly a joke becoming of a Senator, no matter how much you dislike the man.

This is nothing compared to what other Democratic leaders have said about the President (and the administration) these days.

Harry Reid called the president a loser in front of a class of kids when giving a speech.

Rangel called Cheney a Son of a B*tch.

They call him a liar and incompetent on almost daily basis.

This is their loshan now. It's how they are used to speaking. They offer no alternatives only name calling and saying nasty things.
