While Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry and his running mate, John Edwards, and their families were having a “lite” lunch at Wendy’s in the Town of Newburgh Friday, drumming up local support right after the national convention in Boston, their real lunches were waiting on their bus.Is there anything about this man that is not phony?
A member of the Kerry advance team called Nikola’s Restaurant at the Newburgh Yacht Club the night before and ordered 19 five-star lunches to go that would be picked up at noon Friday. Management at the restaurant, which is operated by CIA graduate chef Michael Dederick, was told the meals would be for the Kerry and Edwards families and actor Ben Affleck who was with them on the tour.
The gourmet meals to go included shrimp vindallo, grilled diver sea scallops, prosciutto, wrapped stuffed chicken, and steak salad. The meals came to about $200.
Realistically, the selection of Kerry by the Democrats is perfectly emblematic of the party. Both feel that they are entitled to the Presidency, and that any other outcome is the result either of a "vast right wing conspiracy", or the stupidity of the American people. Neither have any ideas other than "Bush is evil". And both are stuck in the foreign policy ideas of 30 years ago. As I have said before, Kerry is simply not serious on any of the important issues of the day.
