Can he be a bigger TOOL?
Sam Burwell from Corunna, Mich., a third-generation auto worker for General Motors. "It also shows who he's really in touch with: his European, elitist French friends and not Americans like me. A Rolls-Royce, for cryin' out loud."
Asked about the press-pass logo, Kerry spokesman David Wade said it was unintentional error by a campaign volunteer and then criticized President Bush's economic policies.

nice try to deflect critisim TOOL!
------------------------------------------------------------------
As the Yale-educated son of a diplomat who married ketchup heiress Teresa Heinz Kerry — who is worth more than $500 million — Mr. Kerry already faces some obstacles connecting with America's middle-class workers.
"Kerry needs to spend the campaign not behaving like an elitist and not giving voters a reason to remember that he and his wife have a lot of money," said Jennifer Duffy of the Cook Political Report. "It doesn't help him connect with the average voter."
The Rolls-Royce 100EX — an experimental car not in full production yet — features cashmere lining under the hood and dark Curzon leather upholstery, mahogany and teak wood inside the passenger cabin.
"Nobody wants to care for bleached teak wood decking, which is liberally used inside and out on the 100EX," Christian J. Wardlaw wrote earlier this year about the car for Autosite car buyer's guide. "Then again, if you're buying a Roller, chances are that caring for it is someone else's job."
The only Rolls-Royce in production today — the Phantom — starts at $324,000.

This is the best line:
Asked about the press-pass logo, Kerry spokesman David Wade said it was unintentional error by a campaign volunteer and then criticized President Bush's economic policies.
LOL!
-
OMFG!!!
What a putz.
That guy Wade in the article is such a poor politician, I would recommend he find a new line of work.

or maybe just getting the conversation on track to something remotely relevant to the upcoming election.
how evasive, to try and avoid the superficial topic of logos by distracting you with issues.
personally I liked this one
"As the Yale-educated son of a diplomat who married ketchup heiress Teresa Heinz Kerry — who is worth more than $500 million — Mr. Kerry already faces some obstacles connecting with America's middle-class workers. "
because the Yale educated (yet somehow still a moron) son of a president is sooooo in touch with America's middle-class workers.
-
For one, I don't know about any of this... Got a source besides the Moonie paper?
If true.... uh.... big deal?
Everyone knows that the presidential candidate gets his hands dirty with the intimate details in the design process that goes into constructing the little cards that hang off of strings around reporters necks.
Cheeyah...

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzz

Hopefully it will show some middleclass workers that Kerry has nothing in common with them. How exactly am I to believe that he has my best interest at heart? Double talk and flip flopping all over the place sure doesn't do it. The closer to the election we get the more confident I get that Bush will take it easily. This guy has to be the most plastic person I've ever seen run for president.

So if this logo thing is so insignificant, why was GW Bush's pronounciatin' of "brang" so important?
-
Bush's pronunciations of things, are just mildly amusing...btw, what is "brang"?

because it deflected them away from having to discuss actual facts.
-
Brang is Texonic for the past tense of "bring" You say "I brought something over there", I say "I brang it over there"
or
It's how somebody with a very bad southern drawl says bring.

I believe it may be the Texas past tense of 'brung', which is the Alabama past tense of 'bring'.
-
Hehehe, I'd laugh at you too if I heard you say that...then I'd make you take another shot of tekkila.
-
oh maaaan can't do that no more. Too many funny stories that I don't remember because of that stuff!

"Thaaar she blows!!!" says Udie as he stalks the white whale, "HARRRRR!"

>>>>>"Now, with health care costs rising and no end in sight under George Bush, American automakers say they may have to outsource jobs overseas. That's why John Kerry's health care plan offers relief to American companies and hope for the United Auto Workers who are fighting to put John Kerry and John Edwards in the White House." <<<<<
malpratice trial lawyer John Edwards made 60million dollars in eight years suing doctors, that means he personaly raised YOUR health insurance costs by more than $200 million.
but them lawyers sure talk purdy, they don't stumble their words like that dumb boosh guy.

hey man I was taking one for the team on that one! I saw poor Sally talking to her and I just couldn't let a FDB do that to himself. Then you guys let me in the squad for that. Good thing I don't remember much after that fire alarm.
-
It isn't a big deal, it is just funny. I mean, let's go into Motor City, USA, home of the Big 3, and BTW here is your press-pass, sponsered by the elite of the elite foreign Car. LOL, it is funny.

Had I his money, and I wanted to drive European road rockets, I'd go retro and drive a Jaguar E-Type, not that slab of anvil iron.
-
And I guess we are supposed to understand what Bush has in common with the middle class? Last time I checked, Bush has never had a job that didn't include some type of executive position or was that before he graduated from Yale and Harvard?
-
Well....Kerry lost the Michigan vote.

Michigan:
Bush 44 Kerry 46 (Strategic Vision)
Bush 44.1 Kerry 50.0 (Zogby Interactive)
Bush 44 Kerry 47 (EPIC/MRA)
Bush 43 Kerry 50 (ARG)
Bush 44 Kerry 46 (Rasmussen)
I guess we'll see.

I guess we'll see.
With three months remaining in a volatile campaign, Kerry has 14 states and the District of Columbia in his column for 193 electoral votes. Bush has 25 states for 217 votes, according to an Associated Press analysis of state polls as well as interviews with strategists across the country.
Yes, we will.

This election aint about the states we already know about. The so-called "battle ground" states are the story.
Those would be the 12 or so states that are missing from your tally.
I actually think it's more like 16... and I looked into those:
For Bush:
(electoral college votes in brackets)
(11) Tennessee
(6) Arkansas
(20) Ohio
(5) West Virginia
(11) Missouri
Total electoral college votes: 53
For Kerry:
(4) New Hampshire
(10) Wisconsin
(11) Washington
(5) Nevada
(5) New Mexico
(21) Pennsylvania
(17) Michigan
(7) Iowa
(10) Minnesota K
(7) Oregon K
Total electoral college votes: 97
Too close for me to call is Florida with 27 votes.
So Kerry leads Bush by roughly 40 electoral college votes, give or take Florida's 27.
My quick look into it could be all fubar... there's gotta be a lot better of a picture somewhere on the net.
-
Oops... Forgot to add in that summary that he leads with roughly 40 votes in the swing states. When applied to your stats, it's a 20 vote edge to Kerry overall.
290 for Kerry, 270 for Bush.
Now... Bring Florida's remaining 27 votes into it, et voila, another fiasco in the making! :D
-
I suppose if we could get the media to stfu on election day until all polls are closed, it would hep.
-
No kidding. But fat chance. :)
"This just in - Gore has won Florida... No wait, I mean Bush, er, Gore, no Bush, uh..."
"Hello, United Airlines? Hi, this is Shecky Greenbloom, I need a ticket to Florida pronto."

No, he won't. At least according to this pro-Bush site.

Brang is just funnier... neither is important.

I think that language issue will become less important as more Americans come to realise that Bush is the anti-christ.

Its a nice looking symbol. But I guess it means Kerry is a traitor to the US. Oh well.
