From NewsMax:
Responding to criticism that he had a laundry list of demands when he stayed in luxury hotels on the campaign trail, Sen. John Kerry said yesterday that he recently took a trip where he slept every night in his truck – accompanied only by his motorcycle, a friend and his butler, “Marvin.”(paragraph removed for brevity)
“It was wonderful,” the top Democrat declared. “We didn’t stay anywhere. We actually drove all night. We slept in the truck. We cruised through, you know, a couple of little pit stops early in the morning. It couldn’t have been nicer.”
So what did that answer serve to accomplish? He didn’t actually deny that he was excessive on the campaign trail. If someone asks you if you were speeding yesterday, you don’t tell them that, “well, I wasn’t speeding today…”
If “roughing it” consists of sleeping in a truck (just how big is a Kerry truck, I wonder), then I must have been heinously tortured on those monthly camp-outs with the Boy Scouts. I didn’t get a servant either, even when I was senior patrol leader. I didn’t know I had it so bad. ![]()


Hmmmmmm. Did TeRAZAH kick him out that night for failing to put the toilet seat down? Did Kerry actually motorcycle all the way into Cambodia to drop off Christmas presents? Is this a picture of his traveling companion, Teddy?
Here’s how Newsweek reported Kerry as he traveled with his butler, Marvin Nicholson in 2004:
“[T]he candidate was fuming over his missing hairbrush. He and his aides were riding in a van on the way to a Time magazine cover-photo shoot. Nicholson had left the hairbrush behind. “Sir, I don’t have it,” he said, after rummaging in the bags. “Marvin, f—!” Kerry said. The press secretary, David Wade, offered his brush. “I’m not using Wade’s brush,” the long-faced senator pouted. “Marvin, f—, it’s my Time photo shoot.”
Nicholson was having a bad day. Breakfast had been late and rushed and not quite right for the senator. In the van, Kerry was working his cell phone and heard the beep signaling that the phone was running out of juice. “Marvin, charger,” he said without turning around. “Sorry, I don’t have it,” said Nicholson, who was sitting in the rear of the van. Now Kerry turned around. “I’m running this campaign myself,” he said, looking at Nicholson and the other aides. “I get myself breakfast. I get myself hairbrushes. I get myself my cell-phone charger. It’s pretty amazing.” In silent frustration, Nicholson helplessly punched the car seat.”
This picture is more believable than anything that lying traitor says.
