"I don't fall down"
As if a sane thinking person would need more evidence, John Kerry supplies it nevertheless, manifesting the arrogance that seeps from the man's pores.
The image-conscious candidate and his aides prevailed upon reporters and photographers to let him have a first run down the mountain solo, except for two agents and Marvin Nicholson, his omnipresent right-hand man.
His next trip down, a reporter and a camera crew were allowed to follow along on skis — just in time to see Mr. Kerry taken out by one of the Secret Service men, who had inadvertently moved into his path, sending him into the snow.
When asked about the mishap a moment later, he said sharply, "I don't fall down," then used an expletive to describe the agent who "knocked me over."
This man is not Presidential material... ya think?
UPDATE: Breaker over at Right on the Left Beach, has some thoughts worth reading here.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Drudge is reporting what John F'ing Kerry called the Secret Service agent who knocked him down on the slopes. This, if true, simply buttresses the argument that the man does not have Presidential temperament.
ONE MORE: Kudos to Breaker (once again) who turned me on to Brad's post at InfiniteMonkeys who in turn had me check out HindRocket's post at PowerLine. Note that HR agrees with me (and Breaker) about Kerry's Presidential fitness. Seems the "I don't fall down" assertion can now be placed alongside the other whoppers told by John F'ing Kerry.











Mr. Kerry is not presidential material. Thanks for the link.

I saw himon the news last night... he's pretty good on a board.
Come on, Rick. Anybody who has made it that far in politics thinks he's only slightly below God in the pecking order (on a bad day). And when you stack him up against the guy already sitting in the chair, well...
I've been run over on the ski hill and called the offender worse. What else have you got?
Peace!
