JUST SAW JOHN KERRY INTERVIEWED ON FRENCH TV

he his watching the time-trial in St Etienne and came to back Lance Armstrong

He said how much he respects the courage of Lance both in his personal life and as a biker

He was interviewed in French and answered in English

1. Wow someone called him a wussy for answering in English

Could it because its first language and English in the west at least is almost like a universal language.

4. They'd be jumping all over him

if he had answered in French, though, too. People who hate John love to criticize his French connections (since France is known as the "wussy" country).

[JohnKleeb]

6. Yeah the right does that to his French connections

You know who it was who said the French Resistance in the second world war did the work of five army divisions, Dwight Eisenhower.

2. JK quote re Armstrong

14:55 AMERICAN SENATOR (AND NEARLY PRESIDENT) JOHN KERRY interviewed on French television: "Lance Armstrong is bigger than life. He's a great sportsman, but he's a hero and an example for his courage and everything that he's done for cancer research."

3. That is John Kerry I guess

The cynic in me figures there must be some politicing to John. But time and again, he shows that he doesn't bandwagon and when he's committed to something or somebody, it's the real deal. Here he is again, bothering to show up, not just give lip service. Very cool.
