Kerry was at the WWII dedication today......where was he?

[buycitgo]

Bill Schneider just mentioned it on CNN

I watched some of Dole's speech, some of Tom Hanks, suffered through much of the chimp's, yawned through the FedEx guy, saw #41 looking like Scarface in his shades, listened to Douglas Brinkley's explanatioin of the genesis of the memorial, while surfing through CNN, MSNBC, Fauz, CSPAN, but not once did I hear a thing about Kerry being there.

Did I miss it every time it was mentioned, or did everybody completely ignore Kerry's presence there?

Do I infer too much here?

1. Kerry wouldn't be "on the program"

Like Shrub and ex-Presidents, or Dole (WW II vet). He would be "just another senator" in this case.

Glad to hear he was there though.

2. I know.....but there was NO mention of him

No photos, nothing at all

did I miss everything?

why would nobody mention the fact that the democratic contender was there?

seems funny to me

3. was there.....showed him on world news tonight after the regular news

He was there as a senator in the audience. They showed him. they only did a really short on the WWii bit. They had about 5 bits shoved into that 15 minutes of program and 15 minutes of ads. I was hoping it would be on the whole thing. Would have loved to hear Tom Hanks. Bush they could skip....

4. I wondered about Jimmy Carter a WWII hero

Why no mention of him? Was he there?

5. CNN

6. they said only three presidents there....bush, bush and clinton

so I guess carter wasn't there. The piece on World news tonight was less than 5 minutes....I was disappointed....

7. Bob Dole was there

Jeez, the guy we have in the WH now makes you wish for Bob Dole.

At least he has some honor and dignity.

8. That is so Funny.. I was thinking the same thing...who would have

every thought I would want Bob Dole....

His sense of humor and ads and work with Clinton and others since has been uplifting.....and surprizing......take the man out of a negative environment and find a person.....

9. You would think he'd stand up to Bush re deficits, war of choice etc etc

but he just keeps campaigning for him.
