I’ll give them a “C” for effort. . .
Apparently, not even Fox News is going to pick up the Washington Times “scoop” regarding the fact that some Security Council ambassadors don’t remember meeting John Kerry. This is only somewhat suprising; establishing that John Kerry doesn’t talk to the UN enough isn’t really part of the Republican strategy this year, and for good reason.
Rather, Fox has decided that they’ll hit Kerry where it hurts: his truthfulness and his elitism. To that purpose, read the following:
Twice on Sunday, the Democrat said he was basking in Boston’s 10-9 win in Game 1 the night before. Problem is, the Red Sox won 11-9. Kerry spokesman David Wade said the senator got the score wrong because 10-9 was the last update he got from the pilot during his late-night flight to Florida. Problem is, the score never was 10-9. The Red Sox won on a two-run homer, meaning they went from 9 runs to 11.
And:
“Seven-1 Red Sox!” Kerry said as he bounded off the plane, wearing his Red Sox cap, to greet a group of supporters. New Hampshire is Red Sox country, and a cheer went up from the crowd that wasn’t able to watch the game while waiting for his plane on the tarmac. Problem is, the Red Sox were winning 6-1 at the time. They went on to win 6-2.
So, Senator Kerry, which is it? Are you an elitist, just pretending to follow the Red Sox in order to win over crucial Massachusetts swing voters, or are you a pathological liar? Moreover, why would you lie about such a simple and verifiable fact? Is there something else wrong with you? Perhaps the rest of the article will provide some insight:
Kerry was able to watch the Red Sox win the American League Championship from his hotel room while campaigning in Ohio last week. Journalists were invited in briefly to capture the scene of Kerry surrounded by his aides and bottles of beer. The senator didn’t have a drink in his hands, but held both up with his fingers crossed.
Senator, are you an alcoholic? Were you unable to keep the scores straight because of intoxication? Isn’t it true that no beers were available because you had finished off three six packs by yourself before the cameras arrived? Or are you attempting to dispel notions of your elitism by littering your office with empty beer bottles? Senator, precisely how many martinis do you drink to each bottle of beer?
