I'm sure most of you have heard about John Kerry's "botched joke." For those who haven't, let me tell you what happened. Kerry was speaking to a groups of students in California on Monday and he said "You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq." Well it was the shot heard round the world and President Bush called for Kerry to apologize for those remarks. Well first Kerry refused to apologize on Tuesday. But then his fellow Democrats asked him to apologize. So Kerry claimed that his remarks were a botched joke. He claims what he meant to say was "You end up getting us stuck in a war in Iraq. Just ask President Bush."
Well even if that is really what he meant to say, it just goes to show that God doesn't like ugly. And in true Democrat fashion, Kerry now blames the White House because the whole nation is mad at him, calling it a "smear and fear" campaign. WHAT??? So Kerry says something totally insane and that's the President's fault? No matter how you feel about George W. Bush, aren't you glad Kerry didn't get elected. He, like sooooooooooooo many democrats, prefers to blame others for their mistakes instead of taking responsibility for his actions.
Well as the godmother of a Iraqi Freedom veteran, who served two years in Iraq, I don't think Kerry's joke is funny. My godson is not stupid and neither are the other people who have served and are serving there. To even suggest such a thing, especially while we are at war, is irresponsible and makes Kerry the stupid one.
By the way, even if I believe that this was just a botched joke, I have always thought it was very inappropriate to insult the President/Commander in Chief while our country is at war. We should come together as a united front and support our president, our country, and especially our troops. Without those men and women risking and losing lives in wars like we are fighting in Iraq, John Kerry wouldn't have the freedom to say the idiotic things he says!
