White House flack Andrew Card criticizes John Kerry for using profanity in interview.

How disingenuous.....Card criticizes Kerry for commenting on his pro-Iraq War vote - "Did I expect Bush to fuck it up as badly as he did? I don't think anybody did."

White House operatives are ones to talk about someone's potty mouth - after all, it was Dubya who called one reporter a "major-league asshole" during the 2000 campaign, and who told reporters during his father's 1988 campaign that they talked about, er, cats, when they weren't talking about politics.

Perhaps they didn't use profanity in the "Champagne Division" of the Texas Air National Guard that Dubya joined, then went AWOL from, during Vietnam. Kerry probably used plenty of profanity when he was skippering river assault boats in 'Nam. Force of habit, maybe.

Then again, these are the Republicans we're talking about - the ones who labeled former Georgia Senator Max Cleland a coward, even though he lost both legs and an arm in 'Nam, while his opponent, Saxby Chambliss, stayed stateside with a bad knee.
