Kerry Takes Cheap Shot. Press Covers for Him
EFL
Democrat John Kerry joked about President Bushâs weekend bicycle accident by comparing the president to a child. "Kerry told reporters in front of cameras, âDid the training wheels fall off?â " Mr. Drudge reported on his Web site.
A comment not reported by the press. Unlike this:
In comments reported by the Associated Press, Mr. Kerry said, "I hope heâs OK. I didnât know the president rode a bike." Mr. Kerry had his own bicycling mishap earlier this month, taking a spill while riding with Secret Service agents through Concord, Mass. Mr. Kerry fell when his bike hit a patch of sand. He was not injured.
"was not injured." Does that make him more of a man? I think not. Bush, who was 15 miles into a 17-mile ride, got back on the bike and went the last 2 miles. Oh, and he didnât blame anyone else, like Kerry did trying to snowboard the bunny trail. Which was the first of many falls that day. Pathetic.
