McClellan: Kerry is "losing his cool" ... I want to hear Max address that
I'd love to hear Max say anything resembling, "If you attack a veteran's record, you bet he's gonna 'lose his cool.'"

1. McClellan, like Bush, simply repeats the talking points.
Talking points for today were "shadowy groups" and "losing his cool." Maybe if McClellan's pathetic ass had ever been wounded in wartime, he would be singing a different tune.

2. When exactly, did Kerry "lose his cool"??? Can Mccllellan cite a reference
here??? Can a reporter ASK the obvious, like, WTCheney are you talking about, Kerry losing his cool????

4. I'd prefer Max say this; "Lose his cool? John Kerry doesn't lose his
cool. He remains calm, turns his boat and heads straight for the trouble spot and puts an end to it."

5. McClellan is a tool - From Rove's mouth to our ears....
The White House press corp has no spine to let him spew unsubstaniated soundbites like this.

6. I'm all for Kerry "losing his cool"...
...over Bush's illegal, deceptive, destructive bullshit, because in the end, Bush will be "losing his job", which he performs with such incompetence.

7. Hey Scott
If somebody questioned your record as a combat veteran, you might "lose your cool" too! Bunch of assholes that whole White House.

9. Cool not lost.
Not even momentarily misplaced.
Kerry and Edwards are attorneys, and good ones.
Maybe it's wishful thinking, but I think they have this complaint nailed, or they wouldn't even have considered bringing it. The downside, egg-on-our-faces, risk would be just too much.

10. They've already got them nailed re: the flyers in Gainesville
but I'm hoping they get the FEC to investigate the connections between the Republican ops funding the SwiftLiars and the White House.

11. Just Like CHENEY 'Lost His Cool' Telling a Senator to 'GO FUCK YOURSELF'?
McClellan tried to imply that someone who can lose their cool like Kerry has isn't ready to be commander in chief.

I don't even know what to say in response to that, it's so fucking insane.

12. Classic bully tactics
You push somebody into a wall, they get pissed at you for doing it, and you sneer, "Aww, you're losing your cool!"

People see thru this. Only bullies don't. The Bush base are bullies at heart, but the rest of the country isn't.
