Randi is discussing the Kerry situation now (will play Press Conf)

[LSK]

After the break.

[tblue]

1. She'll straighten this out.

[bluestateguy]

2. It's a "situation" now?

I know it's the last day of October, but is this the best they could do for an October Surprise?

[LSK]

5. what word would you use???

Im sorry if I dont have the best word choice.

Sheesh!

[bluestateguy]

19. Sorry about that

I was snarky, and that was a bit rude of me.

But you see where I am coming from?

[LSK]

21. no worries

I just mean its the talking head "situation" of the moment.

[xultar]

3. What's she sayin?

[LSK]

4. she was giving background

[SeattleGirl]

6. Wow, she's pissed! Not at Kerry, but at the Repukes.

Go Randi!!

[LSK]

7. shes playing the clips

[JackBeck]

8. She just played Kerry's clip and the audience was actually laughing.

They got the joke.

Nice try Repugs.

[JackBeck]

9. She's going to play the news conference from today

after the break.

[SammyWinstonJack]

12. Good because I missed it, I was watching MSGOP thinking they were

going to cover it, but they lied!

[LSK]

15. and im a cube rat who can stream AAR

[JackBeck]

16. I'm at work and was following the Kerry threads during the speech.

It sounded as though he gave a really passionate speech today.

[Clark2008]

11. What joke?

Feed the cube rats, please.

[JackBeck]

13. Kerry made a quip yesterday during a speech joking that if you don't get

a good education, "you get stuck in Iraq", taking a swipe at *. The audience laughed.

The Repugs turned it around today saying that Kerry was making fun of the troops.

Kerry had a news conference today to call them out for lying.

[The Gunslinger]

23. Thats what all this fuss is over...

not inapproate sexual advances to a minor,
not falseifying reasons to go to war,
not calling people mucaca(sp)
not taking dirty money from lobbyists

He said the Truth....HOW DARE HE.

[JackBeck]

24. Randi's playing his reposnse right now.

He even attacks Limpballs in his pseech!

[LSK]

14. the one thats been discussed in GD all morning

[Union Thug]

18. The most bizarre thing to me is that...

It doesn't matter how you interpret the joke. It's true.

Yes, it was an attack on the adminstration. On the other hand, if you interpret it the way the repukes are, it remains true. The military is desperate for enlistments, and they have lowered their standards significantly over the past few years.

What's the problem?

[JackBeck]

20. Agreed.

But Kerry explained his intended target today, I believe.

[JackBeck]

10. Just said how proud she was of him today.

How he came out swinging.

I can't wait to hear it.

[LSK]

17. shes back

[LSK]

22. now Randi is mentioning the Allen incident

:rofl:

[LSK]

25. DAMN, THIS IS AN AWESOME SPEECH!!!!

[SammyWinstonJack]

30. !!!

:woohoo: :woohoo: Sen. Kerry :yourock:

[snacker]

26. I'm crying listening to John Kerry speak...

I wish every American could hear this. He is speaking the truth. Thank you, Senator Kerry!

[JackBeck]

31. Listening to a true patriot gives me a lump in my throat.

At work...cannot cry at the moment.

[blm]

37. That's the way I hear him, too.

When I think of all he has done to protect this nation's real history for over three decades - and up against the biggest scum on earth - it makes me wonder anew how he even gets up and goes on with the burdens he has taken on for years - for us.

[JackBeck]

38. Agreed.

When I look at the events taking place right in front of our faces, compared to the fictional history the Repugs create minute by minute, it must take a strong constitution to continue to fight every day to make sure the truth will finally be told.

[devilgrrl]

27. His response is brilliant!!!!!

:bounce:

[wryter2000]

28. OMFG

Awesome! :applause:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

29. It's about time!!!!! He was brilliant!!!!!

[JackBeck]

32. I love how he calls out Rush!

I'd like to see that boxing match!

[LeftCoast]

33. Has Randi mentioned the AA blacklist?

I'm curious what they're going to do about it.

[LSK]

34. no, she mentioned the Allen incident, but its been all Kerry since

[LeftCoast]

35. Thanks!

I hope she gets a chance to talk about it.
