why does john ‘reporting for duty’ kerry say these dumb things? you’d think after being excoriated on the campaign trail 6 years or so ago, he would have learned his lesson, but no he didn’t.

some think john kerry said this not because he hates sarah palin but because he is just a jerk. i happen to think both are true: he hates sarah (they all do) AND he is a doofus-jerk.

The Bay State senator was telling a group of business and civic leaders in town at his invitation about the “bizarre’’ tale of how South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford had “disappeared for four days’’ and claimed to be hiking along the Appalachian Trail, but no one was really certain of his whereabouts.

“Too bad,’’ Kerry said, “if a governor had to go missing it couldn’t have been the governor of Alaska. You know, Sarah Palin.’’

The Democratic-centric crowd laughed.

by the way, he said this before governor sanford’s shameful press conference, so the good news is he wasn’t implying an affair. the bad news is he was wishing what? death? harm? kidnapping?

and lest you forget…

thank god president bush won re-election.
