Well folks, here is what were up against.

[life_long_dem]

While listening to a talkshow today, a guy calls in and says that he saw John Kerry on his bike and he wasn't wearing a helmet. He asks how can he keep this country safe when he doesn't even wear a helmet. Then he said that he saw George Bush working in his shop and he was wearing safety glasses. He can't figure out why someone would vote for Kerry. I am not making this up.

It was a right-wing radio show and I really believe he was serious.
I am embarrassed to admit that I live in the same country as that man. No wonder we lost in 2000. WTF is wrong with PEOPLE?....

1. I doubt seriously he saw Kerry riding a bike without a helmet...

this is typical right-wing bullshit. They create a lie to justify their distorted reality.

14. Actually he took a short ride without his helmet today. But sheesh

who gives a rip? Bush needs a helmet just to walk judging from the number of falls he's taken in recent months. ;)

2. I can top that

A few months back someone told me she wouldn't vote for Kerry because he looks like a shoemaker. Didn't understand it then-Don't understand it now.

8. I make shoes

and I'm voting for Kerry.

13. Shoes are good, i told her

She didn't answer when I asked "Why? Don't you like shoes"

16. If Kerry is a shoemaker...

Then he's ready for "defeat" of Bush!

[high density]

3. I can't wait until this election is over

All of the wingnuts have just saturated everything it seems.

4. i freak out knowing they are on the freeway with me

this is not a joke

5. He had the helmet hanging from the brake lever before he took off

He was doing a few circles for the press while he waiting for the secret service and all to get ready to go. He had not even started his ride yet. Another shot of him returning clearly showed the same helmet on his head.

Do they REALLY believe he would ride around with the helmet dangling from the brake lever?

Not voting for someone because he had not put his helmet on yet? Is that really the deciding issue for the undecided voter? Let's hope not.

7. As they say...

there's an a$$ for every seat. Now you see the intelligence base of BushCo.

6. That's funny, you just have to laugh at some dumb-ass like that.

[Worst Username Ever]

9. Yes, there is a picture of Kerry without a helmet on his bike but

what about all those pics of shrub on the segway, etc doing the same thing. HA.

10. Helmet or not.

Would you decide a life changing event such as the election based on that? I am thinking that * supporters are real worried. They know * doesn't have a leg to stand on. That guy is just a kool-aid salesman. The sad part is, he probably convinced someone to vote for dimwit.

11. Well, when you take LSD you see all sorts of things...

[lasttrip]

15. yes but remember..

"once in while you can get shown the light,
in the strangest of places if you look at it right."

[Dookus]

12. It gets better

there was a thread on FreeRepublic making fun of the velcro shoes he wore on his bike-ride, insinuating he was too dumb to tie his shoes.

Luckily, a few bicyclists chimed in that laces on a bike ride are a bad idea.

[mzmolly]

17. Yes, but Kerry is a true man of faith, he neeeeeds no helmet.

:P

These people are a gas. :hi:

18. In Florida

we had a law that motorcycles drivers and riders had to wear helmets......but the law was reversed..........how about that.Per Jebbie


Florida's Helmet Law - Recent History

July 2000

As of 12:01 AM on July 01, 2000, Florida became the 30th state to allow motorcyclists to ride without a helmet. However, the amendment to HB1911 is far from a repeal of the helmet law but rather a modification of s.316.211. HB1911 was signed into law by Governor Jeb Bush on June 16, 2000.



See that shit don't fly..........
