Kerry: “I bet those grapes were sour anyway…”

This from AP Diplomatic writer Anne Gearan in her article Bush Declares Iraq Election a Success:

In Iraq, officials said turnout among the 14 million eligible voters appeared higher than the 57 percent they had predicted. Complete voting results are not expected for days.

Polls were largely deserted all day in many cities of the Sunni Triangle. In Baghdad’s mainly Sunni Arab area of Azamiyah, the neighborhood’s four polling centers did not open at all, residents said.

A low Sunni turnout could undermine the new government and worsen tensions among the country’s ethnic, religious and cultural groups.

“It is hard to say that something is legitimate when whole portions of the country can’t vote and doesn’t vote,” Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., said on NBC’s “Meet The Press.”

Thanks, John, for your positive, helpful input on the brightest day in Iraq in 50 years. Spoken like a man who has felt the sting of people who didn’t vote…for him. Go have a toddy with Soros and quit yer whinin’…

  2. “Spoken like a man who has felt the sting of people who didn’t vote…for him.”

    Actually, Kerry received 57,288,974 votes in the 2004 election (that’s 6,832,805 more votes than Bush received in the 2000 election).

    That’s a lot of people who DID vote…for Kerry.

  • No Kool Aid Zone?

    drink the Kool-Aid - to accept an argument or philosophy blindly.

    no kool aid zoneThis phrase comes from the 1978 "Jonestown massacre" in which most members of the Peoples Temple cult, blindly following their leader Jim Jones, committed suicide by drinking cyanide-laced Kool-Aid.

    Radically Tolerant - of all people, irrespective of race, faith, circumstance. As a person, you will be treated with the respect and dignity you deserve as an individual created in the image of God.

    Radically Intolerant - of slipshod reasoning, emotion without intellectual substance, bad ideas, lazy thinking, cowardly ad hominem attacks, the preposterous notion that 9/11 is some government conspiracy (proceed directly to the Loony Bin; do not pass "Go"; do not collect $200), the designated hitter, and the Dallas Cowboys.
