Senator John Kerry, Don’t Burn
Someone Else’s Limited Edition Bra!
By Gabrielle Reilly

If I was on one of my adventures around the world, I am about positive I would love to meet Senator John Kerry and his interesting, outspoken, alternate wife. They are fluent in worldly matters and could partake in lively conversations on global issues. As an Australian, I am filled with interest meeting people from every walk of life. Always. That’s the essence of my culture. But, there are some people you would love to have a beer with but would never do business with. That’s the savvy, yet kind, heart of Australia…you can welcome everyone, but never give someone more rope than you think they can handle, or they may just hang themselves with it. For example, I would love to have a beer with Crocodile Dundee but would I want the guy for President? You gotta be jokin’, mate! Well, Senator John Kerry is America’s “Crocodile Dundee,” full of bluster.

I hate all the media sensationalism about this issue, but I have to say the lack of integrity in throwing someone else’s medals REALLY bothers me. I know if I ever went to a women’s movement protest (which I wouldn’t, because I’m proud of being a woman), I absolutely, in good conscience, could not burn someone else’s Limited Edition, Victoria’s Secret bras. In good faith I could only burn my own bra or not burn a bra at all. At any age, or any era, I know in my heart of hearts that someone else’s Limited Edition Victoria’s Secret bra should be respected with great reverence. It would be a grave character flaw to disrespect that as Senator John Kerry disrespectfully threw someone else's medals.

Or how about the war in Iraq? He wanted to give complete control of our military and the rebuilding of Iraq to the UN. The UN, along with France, Germany, and Russia had a complete conflict of interest as they tried to cover up the greatest fraud in world history… over $10 billion embezzled in kickbacks through the Oil-For-Food Program. We would have our military and money under the power and influence of the “Friends of Saddam” as the list is becoming known. Now, I don’t know about you, but that does not sound one bit intelligent to me.

Then there is the $1000 haircut. Geez! I am Republican and a model, and I couldn’t, in good conscience, spend that sort of money on a haircut when people are starving. He calls himself a Democrat???????? Mario Tricco’s hair dressing salon is considered the cream of the crop… even praised by Oprah Winfrey. The most I have ever spent there is about $120, which included chemical straightening. I couldn’t ever spend $1000 on a trim, no matter how much money I have, regardless of what show, guest appearance, or movie I was in. I guess that is what “fiscally conservative” means. Not wasting money. How could Senator Kerry decrease government spending if he wastes money so excessively? He spent $970 too much on a trim! $30 is still extravagant for a man’s haircut, but let’s be generous here… that one haircut could have paid for haircuts for 3.73 more years. So he can blow a budget that would otherwise last almost 4 yrs, in 1 day!

How about his big outrage on outsourcing? He indirectly pays for that $1000 haircut from the additional profits he makes from his family’s company outsourcing, then tells us how bad outsourcing is!

Of course there is all the rhetoric and bluster he gives us, which is not in line with how he actually lives. He is against SUVs, but when asked about the SUV he drives, he claims it is his wife’s car and he has to ask permission to use it. One of two things occurs to me here. One, either she has him so tightly by the “cahooleys” that we really need to be evaluating her as President, or two, he is playing us all for fools thinking we will buy that ridiculous story. My guess would be somewhere in the middle.

They do seem like a fun and interesting couple though. A little eccentric, totally unpredictable as they sway back and forth weighing the complexity of global issues… They would make for some great fun at a tapas bar in Spain along with the newly elected socialist Spanish Prime Minister, José Luis Rodriguez Zapatero. Come to think of it, they would really have far more in common with him than the average American. As I said though, it’s one thing to enjoy a drink with a mate and it’s another to do business with them. The President of the United States holds the single most important position in the world. I want to be certain that person is of good, steady character and unwavering in their beliefs and actions. We need strong leadership in this new and dangerous world.

End.

DECISIONS

We can try to avoid making choices
by doing nothing, but even that is a decision.
