I'm not sure Kerry even knows what he's saying half the time, because he'll always go and contradict it the next.
I was talking about Angiledes.

I'm not sure about Angelides...I didn't like the way he was acting during the Debate a few weeks ago. Then again, I don't want a republican in office on principle, even though Arnold is more of a Social left.

That comment really pisses me off. But are you 100% sure he meant it in the way we are interpreting it? Are you sure that's VERBATIM what he said? If not, maybe he was trying to make a point about the flawed education system, that if you're at a public high school and you don't graduate at the top, you have extremely few options to the point of being FORCED into the military.

Is there a transcript anywhere?
100% sure, thats the one thing that stuck out for me. he said in between jokes about bush.  I know how he probably meant it, but it didnt come at all like a jab at bush but rather at the military.

I just heard it on the radio, word for word, and it was verbatim, I'm sure he meant to be knocking Bush, though his grades were actually lower than bush's, but good ol' lurch just doesn't have the tact or the personality to do comedy right. It's not like he's never before said anything disparaging of people that might not be considered as well off as mr. "I ask for peanut butter and jelly wheneve i want, and my butler makes it on the spot"

Duh, I was confused, I thought it was Angilides who said that. Good, it was Kerry. Now I can still think about voting for Angilides.

After taking the quiz provided earlier in this thread, I find myself almost evenly split between supporting Arnold and Angelides.....

Soooooo if he's saying that about our soldiers of today, what's it mean for someone like him who volunteered to go to Vietnam (he wasn't a draftee)?  He managed to not only insult all our troops but himself in one sentence.  Makes me glad he didn't become president, not that bush is much better.
