7/28 Why does Kerry choose a sport/activity and then play dressup?
I have literally a dozen photos of him dressed up in different
costumes.
\_ Kerry's basically an android. He's just trying to use camouflage
to blend in with the humans.
\_ Why do you collect so many Kerry photos? Do you have a Kerry fetish?
\_ That's his business and knowing that doesn't answer his
question.
\_ He likes trying new things?
\_ Maybe he should try showing at a Senate vote or an intelligence
committee meeting sometime....

\_ Real ones? Yeah, I would.
\_ Are you trying to claim Bush does not do this?
\_ At least Bush can throw a strike over home plate.
\_ Not to the really weird extent Kerry does. The guy
has been criss-crossing the country playing dress up.
\_ Let's see, I see Bush in a flight suit, Bush in a
Kimono, Bush in a tanker jacket, Bush as a cheerleader...
\_ Flight suit: he should be in a jet without one?
Kimono: do as the Romans (or Japanese) do.
Cheerleader: duh, photoshop.
\_ At least Kerry doesn't need to "stuff"

\_ He's just trying to appeal to gay voters. |

| www.drudgereport.com/dnc8.htm XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX WED JULY 28, 2004 12:56:02 ET XXXXX CONTROVERSY SURROUNDS KERRY CONVENTION FILM: WAR SCENES REENACTED **World Exclusive** A bombshell new book written by the man who took over John Kerry's Swift Boat charges: Kerry reenacted combat scenes for film while in Vietnam! The footage is at the center of a growing controversy in Boston. The official convention video introducing Kerry is directed by Steven Spielberg protg James Smoll. MORE Smoll was given hours of Kerry's homemade 8 millimeter film to incorporate into the convention short, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. "Kerry carried a home movie camera to record his exploits for later viewing," charges a naval officer in the upcoming book UNFIT FOR COMMAND. "Kerry would revisit ambush locations for reenacting combat scenes where he would portray the hero, catching it all on film. Kerry would take movies of himself walking around in combat gear, sometimes dressed as an infantryman walking resolutely through the terrain. He even filmed mock interviews of himself narrating his exploits. A joke circulated among Swiftees was that Kerry left Vietnam early not because he received three Purple Hearts, but because he had recorded enough film of himself to take home for his planned political campaigns." The films shot by Kerry's own Super 8 millimeter hand-held movie camera have the grainy quality of home movies. MORE The BOSTON GLOBE reported in 1996 that the Kerry home movies "reveal something indelible about the man who shot them - the tall, thin, handsome Naval officer seen striding through the reeds in flak jacket and helmet, holding aloft the captured B-40 rocket. The young man so unconscious of risk in the heat of battle, yet so focused on his future ambitions that he would reenact the moment for film. It is as if he had cast himself in the sequel to the experience of his hero, John F Kennedy, on the PT-109." "John was thinking Camelot when he shot that film, absolutely," says Thomas Vallely, a fellow veteran and one of Kerry's closest political advisers and friends. Robert "Buzz" Patterson in his new book RECKLESS DISREGARD, details one of the claimed Kerry reenactments for film: "On February 28, 1969, now in charge of PCF 94, Kerry came under fire from an enemy location on the shore. The crew's gunner returned fire, hitting and wounding the lone gunman. Beaching his boat, Kerry jumped off, chased the wounded insurgent behind a thatched hutch, and killed him. Kerry and his crew returned within days, armed with a Super 8 video camera he had purchased at the post exchange at Cam Ranh Bay, and reenacted the skirmish on film." |
| www.fightingarts.com/reading/article.php?id=167 He may head of one of the world's elite superpowers, but to his fellow judo club members Russian President Vladimir Putin is best known for his wicked sweeping leg throw (Haraigoshi). Although it is little known in the west, Putin is an avid student of judo -- the Japanese art in which students compete to throw their opponents or defeat them on the ground with grappling techniques, such as immobilizations, chokes and submission arm locks. Putin began studying judo at age 14 and has been studying ever since. During his competitive career, among his many victories Putin placed third place in the Russian Junior Nationals and was Leningrad Seniors Champion. He is now President of the same club where he began, St. This last September 5th, following an official state visit to Tokyo, Japan, Putin was a guest at the famous Kodokan headquarters of judo. In attendance were many officials including Japanese Prime Minister Mori. Yukimitsu Kano, the grandson of Kodokan Judo's founder Jigoro Kano said, "President Putin started Judo when he was very young, and has continued practice until now. We are very happy to have him and welcome him as a judo member." Following demonstrations of the art, Putin showed his own skills of throwing and grappling. Assisted by a Kodokan instructor, Mukai, Putin demonstrated a variety of leg sweeps, shoulder, and backward sacrificing throws plus two techniques favored by smaller men facing larger opponents -- an inner leg throw that dumps the opponent backward and the basic hip throw that introduces most students to the art. Afterwards Putin's assistant, Mukai said, said that President Putin's technique was very good. And to the delight of the audience Putin permitted her to throw him. He was officially awarded a coveted sixth degree black belt. Not since US President Teddy Roosevelt has a world leader been associated with judo or other martial arts. Roosevelt had been involved in both boxing and wrestling. After witnessing a demonstration of judo by Yoshiaka Yamashita against a wrestler at the White House, Roosevelt began studying the art under this teacher, eventually becoming the first American to achieve the rank of brown belt. While Roosevelt may be the first modern day head of state to actively practice in the martial arts, Putin is certainly the first to achieve an advanced rank in martial arts. ru About the Author: Tom Ross is a retired NYC Correction Officer who specialized in the Handling of Security Risk group prisoners.
