Is any of this discussion REALLY about how “smart” our military is? After six years of speech blunders of the greatest magnitude ever, are we really nit-picking on this one? Do we really have to bust out every single misspoken thing Bush said to counter this?
There is only one that really still burns me. How about the one where Bush said he really “wasn’t concerned” about finding the person responsible for nearly 3000 U.S. civilian deaths? Hey, I think he actually MEANT to say that one! I’m sure the children of the lost firefighters (and everyone else for that matter) were happy to learn how much he cared. (By the way, apparently now that it’s election time, he cares again… Video)
Anyway, Kerry was a dork (again) and inadvertently dropped one single word (us) from his already lame joke and turned it into an unintended slam on the military (basically himself as well). I highly doubt that was ever the intention. To make SUCH a big deal out of something so easily recognized as unintentional is laughable, but that’s what we are sometimes I guess.
So, what again is Kerry running for this year? Oh, that’s right, nothing. Why does he matter right now? That’s right, he doesn’t. Don’t like him or what he said? Fine, please don’t vote for him in two years. Until then, there are MUCH more important things to worry about.
