#1 Is this Tuesday? I must be in Ann Arbor. You neglected the punchline:

At that point, before all the boos began raining down upon him, Kerry seemed to realize his error. In an attempt to silent the angry crowd of University of Michigan supporters, Kerry said, "But that was while I was in Ohio. I know I'm in the state of Michigan and you got a great big M and a powerhouse of a team." Then his face, presumably, the Botox permitting, turned Big Blue.

He should be more careful. If he accidently salutes the Steelers in Cleveland, he better don a helmet, pronto ... On second thought, he may be OK. That thing he's wearing looks like grey Kevlar.

#6 "I was smart enough not to pick a choice between the Falcons and the, well, you know, all those other teams out there. I just go for Buckeye football, thatâs where Iâm coming from."

No, John. Yer coming die-rect from Tay-Ray-Suh's ass.

#8 I think you can count Missouri out too. If 71% of the VOTING people are against gay marriage, how many are going to jump on the Kerry bandwagon? Not many. FYI this vote was in response to the Massachusetts law permitting gay marriage. I hope Kerry has some more speaking engagements soon! Prediction: He will trail my double digits before the Republican Convention.

#12 Hello, to all of you ~~peasants~~ out there. Enough of this,"I'm not a man of the people" balderdash. While dining at Wendy's with the Edward's by the by with Taaaraaaysa the other day, we sampled the chateau briand and it was fabulous!
So enough of that "I'm not a man of the people tripe", okay?
Ta-ta for now!
On other subjects, how's your local sports team doing? Fabulous, fabulous! I think they're great! And their biggest star?! He just fabulous!

#13 Good God. I loathe sports, and even I know "buckeye" goes with "Ohio," not "Michigan."

Wotta arrogant, ignorant maroon.

#14 Actually I think this has less to do with him not knowing that the buckeyes were not michigan and more to do with the fact that he forgot where he was a was just doing what he always does... telling people what he thinks they want to hear, not what he thinks.

#21 I can see Kerry's confusion. I flew my plane all around Alaska villages a couple of weeks ago. I suffered from prop-lag. Didn't know where I was, half the time. The other half---had it nailed, by gum.....
