That's my point.... the media is making this into a big deal: "EXTRA EXTRA! KERRY SAYS OUR TROOPS ARE UNEDUCATED. ALSO, HE EATS BABIES!"
And of course the Republicans are jumping all over this, since they need anything that can get to distract us from:
The $1 TRILLION failure of the war in Iraq.
The N.Korean nukes.
The failing housing market (that's not being balanced by a massive stock turn around).
Having given up on capturing Osama.
The bribery money in congress.
The sex with little boys in congress.
The perpetual removal of personal freedoms, with no demonstrable gain in security.
When your own credibility is torn to tatters, you have to jump on any little thing your opponent says, even if you have to intentionally take it out of context for it to help your message.
