WP reporterâs catty skewering of SKerry
I like the style section of the Washington Post best when it is catty and snide. This reporter has a number of little digs on Kerry. EFL... He [Kerry] stood in the aisle of the press section, placed his hands atop two seats and talked about how he liked the new World War II Memorial in Washington. After a few minutes, he walked a few rows forward and reasserted this for those who didnât hear him the first time. .....The next hour and a half featured a panel of experts in a dire discussion of the unthinkable, a fact that Kerry acknowledged. "This is a daunting topic, I know," he said. "And some people will just turn off." Or just leave, which several people do at various points during the program. ... Kerry invited questions from what was left of the audience...-- the first question involved a matter of even greater concern. Senator, would you consider picking John McCain as your running mate? ...He said what he always says: He is committed to a "private, personal" process in picking his running mate. "I hope you will take that in the spirit that itâs meant," Kerry told the man. Itâs not clear what that spirit is other than evasion. "Thank you, though," Kerry added. "I appreciate the question. Good try." Posted by: mhw 2004-06-08 |
