did John Kerry just call soldiers stupid?

Someone says something. It can be interpretted in different ways (and as I have said, I can see it being interpretted as meaning soldiers are stupid, but I don't interpret it that way). So of course political enemies are going to spin it to their advantage.

Wow....words in politics being said to have a different meaning than intended. I'm shocked.

Damn, I hate it when Scaeagles is right but I have to admit he has a point. All this brouhaha over a few silly words is taking the focus off the real issues.

A president that lies, violates the constitution of the United States, is responsible for starting the only war of aggression in the modern history of the US, and most importantly is personally responsable for the deaths of over 3,000 coalition soldiers. Thanks Leo for keeping us all focused.
