Yeah, but as usual, the right wing spin doctors are at work, making it
sound as if Kerry simply decided not to be involved. Nothing is
further from the truth. Why must you righties lie ALL of time? Meeting
minutes are available to the congressmen, if they so choose. In those
meeting minutes, which Kerry has explained because of the lying right
wing, you'd see that in almost all of those thirty eight times, he WAS
there, but was in private session. You righties spin well, I must say,
because most don't know or realize that a lot of the time in committee
meetings is spent in private sessions, along with other members.

I have a lawyer friend who wants to be a judge! Problem is, he never voted
in his life. He has 10 excuses, all sound as good as the 'basskisser' excuse
for Kerry.

If the guy was not there, he was not there. If there were private sessions,
show me the proof.

Meaningless. The real work of committees is done in closed session
anyway.

BTW, the dumb ass currently occupying the white house spent most of
the
time prior to 9-11 away from his office and on vacation.

Well so it's meaningless that Kerry stays away but not meaningless
that Bush
takes a vacation? Interesting.

If Bush is so dumb, what is he doing in the White House?



****ing things up royally.



ok, how did he get there then? I mean, by definition, a dumb ass should not
make it far in life.

It's the blind lemming republicans! You know the ones: No matter how
screwed up his values and judgement, no matter how bad he screwed up
the state he governed, he's a republican, you MUST lockstep to the
voting booth!!

Seems like Kerry could clear up a lot of things if he opened up his military
records and attendance record for the closed Intelligence Committee meetings
he *allegedly* attended.

And as was previously requested, perhaps you can show where you got your
information from.

It's common ****ing knowledge, for god's sake! Did you not KNOW that
there are many, many private session meetings for congressional
committees?

Basskisser,
When I heard that information about Kerry, it did not sound correct to me,
but I have not been able to find the correct information about Kerry's
attendance at intelligence committee meetings and the minutes at the
meeting. Did you actually find some info to disprove the statements that
are being made?


And another:

Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Pat Roberts called on Sen. John Kerry
to release his Intelligence Committee attendance records on Sunday - as
controversy swirled over claims that the top Democrat was mostly a no-show
during important hearings.

"The easiest way out of this is for John Kerry and John Edwards to request
[Committee Vice Chairman] Sen. Rockefeller and myself to release the
attendance [records]," Roberts told NBC's "Meet the Press."

It's just common knowledge. I thought that anybody who thought they
knew anything about the United States congress, knew that, when
congressmen are on committees, that much of that time is spent in
private session, John Smith. Also, you probably don't know this
either, but when congress is in session, the congressmen come and go,
they may pop in for an hour, then go to a private meeting, etc. Not
knowing that, you also probably don't know that, unless they actually
speak, there attendence won't be in the meeting minutes.

There's no reason to "cooperate" with right-wing trash, no matter where
it is found. Right-wing trash is not interested in truth.
