From John Kerry's official website:
http://blog.johnkerry.com/2006/11/a_statement_from_john_kerry.html "As a combat veteran, I want to make it clear to anyone in uniform and to their loved ones: my poorly stated joke at a rally was not about, and never intended to refer to any troop.
I sincerely regret that my words were misinterpreted to wrongly imply anything negative about those in uniform, and I personally apologize to any service member, family member, or American who was offended.
It is clear the Republican Party would rather talk about anything but their failed security policy. I don’t want my verbal slip to be a diversion from the real issues. I will continue to fight for a change of course to provide real security for our country, and a winning strategy for our troops."
He has apologized. I say this story gets one more day (today) then the desperate cons will have to scramble for something else to divert attention away from their record of miserable failure.
Looks like Bush announced that he's keepin' Rummy 'til the end of his term. I wonder how republican candidates who are distancing themselves from him are gonna respond when they're asked how they feel about it?
If this were a presidential election year... I'd say there would definitely be some fallout for the democrats. But since it isn't, attention will soon return to how bad republicans have been for this country.
