Kerry Campaign Slogan

A minute ago, a caller to a radio show many of us Monkeys listen to mentioned how Kerry needed to keep his record focused on the brief period time that he was on the swift boat in Viet Nam, since the other 25 years or so of his public service offers nothing but bad votes and flip-flops, nothing worth campaigning on.

Again, it all comes back to Apocalypse Now.

After his encounter with the tiger, Chef kept ranting, "Never get off the boat, man. Never get off the boat." Willard's voiceover: "Never get out of the boat. Absolutely g**d*** right."

I think that's got to be John F'n Kerry's campaign mantra.

Somebody really needs to create a new online quiz:

Which Apocalypse Now Character Are You?

I'd be Chef, for sure. "He was wrapped too tight for Vietnam, probably wrapped too tight for New Orleans." Wrapped up too tight for Rialto.

Barring that, I'd probably be General Corman: "I don't know how you feel about this shrimp, Captain, but if you eat it you'll never have to prove your courage in any other way again."
