John Kerry is suddenly changing his tune. He has come out and made a statement that the performers Thursday night (who said some pretty outrageous things) are their own opinions and not his...and he doesn't share the opinions.
Funny thing is- at the end of the event the other night, Kerry went on stage and said that every performer there tonight shared the views of the entire country, and that he agreed with every performer there that night...some of those values these millionaire celebrities, far out of touch with reality? Mellencamp- you might remember him, he USED to have a music career, tho he was never any good if you ask me- called the president a thug who basically has the soldier's blood on his hands (I'd wager money he never said any such thing about Clinton who sent the military everywhere on the globe), Chevy Chase- we all remember this guy, and we all know he hasn't had a career in about 15 years, attacked the president...no telling what he said exactly since the Kerry campaign nor Radio City Music Hall will allow any of the footage of the event to get out, Whoopi- once again, a former celeb, who basically has no career anymore, used the president's last name in a manner to talk about certain female body parts- doing her best to show her class with vulgar jokes about the current president, tho I remember her praising the former president, a man who would surely get along much better with a joke about 'bush.'
Attacking the president, calling him a thug, vulgar jokes, saying that the war in Iraq was a political move, the poor US soldiers are being killed because of that evil Mr. Bush- these are the values of America according to John Kerry. Wait, I take that back, I DID mention that Mr. Flip-Flop King did indeed make a statement saying he didn't agree with all of the performers...maybe that means Kerry's values are constantly changing, or are they non existant? I'm not quite sure. One thing is for sure- Kerry endorsed the hate that came out of that event, and as a public official, he should be reprimanded. The man should learn to have respect for the office of the president itself...even if he disagrees (if you figure out Kerry's constantly changing position) with the policies.
The celebs that took part in the event...well, they're just jokes. Most of these people have careers that were left back in the 80's- so, let them be bitter in their mansions worth tens of millions, with their body guards, and their limos, and their gated drive ways, and their million dollar shopping sprees...we all know that these people are so out of touch with most of America, and the real world itself, that they can't be totally blamed for the stupidity that is constantly spewing from their mouths. I mean, come on, maid service and butlers put a lot of stress on a person.
