1. Hope he

slaps Hemmer up the side of the head a few times............

[tandot]

2. Darn, I am in the office. Can you keep us informed about what was said?

Thanks! :yourock:

[VolcanoJen]

3. Ouch! He's giving Bush the business on the "are we safer?" issue!

Excellent job by John Kerry. He's pointing out the fact that three years post 9/11, we're not one bit safer, and these terror alerts prove that.

He just reminded America of this: "President Bush, Tom Ridge and John Ashcroft have constantly told the American people it's not a matter of will we get attacked, but when."

[VolcanoJen]

4. Talking about "baby bounce" now (Hemmer loves that phrase)

Kerry: "It doesn't mean anything, Bill. It doesn't mean anything. Bill, you don't know who the "likely voters" are. The political dynamics are so different this year, don't you know that? These polls are useless, and I don't pay attention to them. If I paid attention to polls, I would have quit the campaign last December."

8. He's smacking Bill really well!!

Bill asked him something about shifting opinions and Kerry said "wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong...." and then layed out his plan...

VERY STRONG JOHN!!!!

[VolcanoJen]

5. Kerry started talking about health care, and then Bill changed the subject

Hemmer: "OK, but back to those polls for a minute."

Kerry: "You're truly obsessed with those, aren't you?"

[tandot]

10. I wish I'd have a TV here. I would give anything to see that.

Thanks, VolcanoJen :yourock: :thumbsup:

6. Kicking L'il Billy's ASS... bigtime!

Kerry won't even let him start a "stupid" question. Shuts him down right in the middle of it. Whoo Hoo!!! I am lovin' it! Kerry is just shining this morning. :bounce: :bounce:

[VolcanoJen]

7. I loved how he just told Bill: "You're wrong, wrong, wrong."

:D :D :D

[JI7]

13. "control and frame" the debate on OUR terms

seems that's what kerry is doing. he could fall into the poll question trap by trying to answer but instead he takes focus off of that and goes into why he is running and his plans for the country.

[peegee]

16. Feel so proud of my candidate

Kerry stood his ground and did not whimper about the Dean interview. His opinion is different from Dean's and will still have him on the team. Just made my day to see Hammer being stomped on!!!

[blueblitzkrieg]

9. Hemmer is dim

Hemmer: Will you keep Howard Dean on the campaign after his comments yesterday about the terrorist warnings?

Kerry: Yes, he just has a different opinion than me.

Hemmer looks shocked, as if Kerry should immediately drop Dean for daring to question High Emperor Bush. Suck it, Hemmer.

[Flubadubya]

14. Kerry kicked Hemmer's ass and took his name!...

:evilgrin:

[VolcanoJen]

15. Oh, I know!! Hemmer turned a ghostly shade of white.

"How dare you employ someone who criticized Dear Leader," was the look on his face.

Good for Kerry. :D

[VolcanoJen]

11. Ha! Kerry accused the Bush Bus of "following us around!"

:D

Hemmer just pointed out that Kerry is 61. Weird.

[T Bone]

12. Hemmer the Whore

I liked it when Hemmer kept on about 'polling' and Kerry told him he was being obsessive about it. Hemmer said well, just to follow-up, and kept whoring along best as his feeble mind would let him.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

17. I'm Not A Fan Of Bill H(u)mmer.....

NT

[SOS]

19. Little Billy Hummer

ended up with an embarrassed grin. Kerry knows that CNN is the enemy and he didn't let Hummer get away with anything.

[DaveFL99]

18. the problems not with Kerry

it's with America. How the hell can anyone even consider Bush when we have Kerry

[Walt Starr]

20. I can hardly wait until January 21

and Kerry's staff sets a list of those who are no longer welcome to the White House Press corps.

The whores must pay.

[cally]

21. I hope Kerry does seek retribution against the whores

It is the only way that the press will learn.
