A new anti-Kerry scandal brewing.

[Julien Sorel]

When will it end? Just call the election off and declare Bush the winner -- I can't take this any more!

The songs tend to sound like surf music with an overlay of boogie-woogie piano. Most tracks are instrumentals. Careful listeners can pick out the steady thump of Kerry’s bass — nothing fancy, though the liner notes credit him as the “producer of a pulsating rhythm.” (The same notes also call the diplomat’s son a resident of Oslo, Norway.)

Story


So Kerry was a mediocre bass player who falsely claimed he created a "pulsating rhythm." That grotesque exaggeration is bad enough, but he claimed to reside in Oslo, Norway, when he was actually right here. How long has this man been distorting and exaggerating his past? What if a new anti-Kerry PAC is put together, called "Bass Players for Truth?"

And will Kerry jump all over this and defuse it like he should? No. He'll sit around and wait until the scandal grows and grows, and then he'll try to do something, but by then it will be too late. And how in the world could he have been in a band named after a Buick? At least it wasn't a foreign car, I suppose it could be worse.

I knew we shouldn't have nominated this guy. He has a closet full of skeletons just waiting to come out. We're doomed.

24. Thank You!!!!!!

I'm making a new show this weekend; this will be on it for sure..

[Gore1FL]

2. I can't even see this one making it aroundf the block as a scandal

If they want to argue something this stupid, they'll be rifling through grade-school essays next.

[Only Me]

3. 'Closet full of Skeletons???' Are you really a Democrat???

[Julien Sorel]

5. I just want to win, damnit!

And if stuff like this keeps popping up, we'll never do it. What else is he hiding? I'll bet he played hooky and lied about it, too.

[enigmatic]

9. Actually, I think "Elementary School Pupils For Truth"...

is coming out w/ a new anti-Kerry campaign next week!;)

[Only Me]

12. Not HOOKY... nooooo!!! I know were doomed now!!

:P

[Droopy]

10. The original post is, uh, dripping with sarcasm.

And that's an understatement. Then again, maybe yours is too and it's just over my head.

[JohnnyCougar]

11. I think he was being sarcastic...

[rumguy]

4. "producer of a pulsating rhythm."

my god that is lame.

[fishface]

6. bwhahahahahaaaa.....

looks like you really sucked in some folks needing some sleep!!

[Torgo Johnson]

8. I know you are being sarcastic but ...

keep in mind this is the same media who had a field day when Al Gore said he visted a disaster site with James Watt when he actually visited the site with a deputy of James Watt. And let's not forget the obsession with the "Love Story" story.

[Julien Sorel]

13. Who's being sarcastic?

I just thought of a huge bullet we Dodged: what if the band was named the Corvairs? Then Nadir would be all over this. So the news isn't all bad -- maybe Kerry was thinking of his future when they named the band. But then that would play into the notion that he's too calculating! Oh. My. God. It never ends, does it?

[Torgo Johnson]

15. My god, you are right.

This just in from Matt Drudge...

BREAKING NEWS... KERRY ONLY FINGERED BASS DURING PERFORMANCES ....EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT UPCOMING

[enigmatic]

17. The Bastard!

He had Stu Sutcliffe playing all his bass parts!!

[Julien Sorel]

18. Nevermind

I mixed Stu Sutcliffe up with the guy who did sessions for Paul Samwell-Smith on Train Kept a Rollin'. :/

[enigmatic]

19. That's ok...

I'm a Yardbyrds fan as well; listening to their live version of "I'm A Man" earlier tonight..

[Mad As Hell]

28. That purple heart bandaid picture is monstrously fantastic.

[enigmatic]

16. You know...

I'm going to name my next band The Corvairs so I can called the album "Unsafe At Any Speed"!

[0rganism]

21. Guess what? Like any halfway decent idea, it's already been done

http://www.thecorvairs.net/

Seriously. It's been done. :)

[enigmatic]

23. Damn!

I guess I'll go back to the name "Yom Kippour and The Cirumcisions" and our leadoff single, "The First Cut Is The Deepest"!

[0rganism]

25. Was that a 10-inch single?

Sorry, just had to slip that one in.

[enigmatic]

26. LOL!

[Carla in Ca]

20. I was just going to read a few posts before

going to bed but you guys have me laughing so hard, I'm wide awake again!
So, the punishment is to tell you they haven't even started on Edwards yet, so there.
That should keep you up all night, Billy.



(The preceding was purely in fun)

[ContinentalOp]

27. Can we really trust a BASS PLAYER to lead our country in a time of war?

I think not. What's next, a drummer?

[skooooo]

29. Shit!

I was hoping this wouldn't come out.
