Kerry Ranting Against the Establishment

Saw this linked at QandO.

Kerry is at it again.

Washington seems more and more out of touch with the difficulties the average family is facing," Kerry told the crowd of about 150 last week in Baton Rouge. ''Go out of here, take some anger and a little bit of outrage at the fact that Washington is not dealing with the real concerns of our country."

And:

'They think it's all about them," the ad states above pictures of Bush, House majority leader Tom DeLay and Senate majority leader Bill Frist. ''Don't let them forget about what really matters to you. . . . Make Washington stand up for the needs and values of America's families."

Now I think his first statement is probably correct. There is a slight problem with who is delivering the call to arms. How can one honestly take the word of a senator, who in my opinion, is likely one of the most out of touch people in the senate?

I also would have less difficulty with the statements if he wasn't railing so clearly against the rethugicans alone. I can't see the demosprats as having clean hands here at all.

What is Kerry trying to do here? The article [Boston Globe] clearly states that Kerry is trying to rehabilitate his public image as a Washington insider. Yeah, that will work, and Hillary is a moderate. Give me a break. How can he believe that someone that is so heavily entrenched in following the liberal democratic line, as seen by his record, can change the view that he's an insider?

Oh please. This guy is as much a spokesman for the common man as I am for black, gay, transvestite, shitzu owners (and I sure don't mean anything bad about black, gay or transvestite people, just that I'm not one of 'em. Screw the shitzus). He is so clueless it's simply amazing. He was clueless before the election, during the election, and now he's maintaining his spotless record. Oh, and where the f' is the form 180? It's been 100 days since he promised to sign the damned thing.
