Rich Daley: Kerry's Iraq remark `a sad joke'
Mayor Richard Daley, whose son is a soldier, said Wednesday that Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) was wrong for telling students they will "get stuck in Iraq" if they don't make the most of their educational opportunities.The remark was "uncalled for," Daley said. If Kerry's comment was meant as a joke, it was "a sad joke." Asked if he took it personally because his son, Patrick, is in the Army, Daley said, "I think everybody should take it personally. It doesn't matter if you have a son or daughter in the military." Patrick Daley, a member of the 82d Airborne Division, enlisted in 2004. Posted by: Steve White 2006-11-02 |
