4. Well, he WAS in a band....
It's not that hard to conceive his being a music lover. Even Teresa has commented on his liking Beatles-era music (in the Newsweek interview this past May).

Duh CNN, you're going to have to do better than that...:dunce:

Great taste in music. What a guy!



Anti-war activist

His time fighting in Vietnam made Kerry increasingly disillusioned with the war.
When he returned to the US, Kerry became involved with the anti-war campaign, joining a group called Vietnam Veterans Against the War.

Here he joins other anti-war protesters as they gather at the foot of Boston's Bunker Hill monument in May 1971.

6. I thought that was funny.
He wasn't going to play Blitzer's game.

3. why bother with this?
should be obvious, shouldn't it?

remember that famous refrain from 2000, which characterized a huge component of Bush's supposed appeal?
