Where is the CONTEXT?!
ABC
"You know education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. And if you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."

FrontPage Magazine
“You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.”

The Conservative Voice

US News and World Report
"You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and do your homework, and make an effort to be smart, uh, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."

The RW Noise Machine is telling us that Kerry is maligning the troops and that's that. I don't buy it. Why are there hundreds of articles that go like "You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and do your homework, and make an effort to be smart, uh, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq.", but they don't have one sentence before or after this quote to even give us a shred of context besides of what the RWNM says. Seems a bit odd, I want some context.

1. The sentence before is a joke about bush being a clueless moron
not knowing the difference between Shiites and Sunnis before starting the qWagmire.

Clearly the next line is calling bush stupid for getting us stuck in Iraq, and any moron who wishes to claim otherwise I challenge to point out where in that statement our troops are mentioned.


It's not there except in the minds of tools who are swallowing Rove's distorted gruel.

3. Two points
1) No matter how it is spun by any side it was a gaffe and showed a class bias. It also showed that Kerry forgot his own college education for a moment. He spoke poorly.

2) This will have zero impact on the elections.
