2. Id like to see Bushler do that...
He cant even ride a Segway, or chew pretzels and watch TV simultaneously.

7. He played (lettered?) Ice Hockey, lacrosse , and soccer at Yale

He also has sailboarded from Nantucket to Cape Cod -ON EDIT-( I think that is right) a couple of times, a 6 hour adventure. Someone posted a pic of him on the cover of sailboarder magazine a week or so ago ANOTHER EDIT see BlueEyedSon's post #6.

11. LOL
Someone should put together all of the Kerry "action" photos. I am guessing he likes the color blue.

Its nice to see that at least our candidate is human.

Anyone think that if these pictures get around, then Bush will one day give a press conference in a wetsuit?


And, is it just me, or does Kerry really look like a PE teacher in these pictures...

Maybe its just me

16. heh...he prefers the water to be blue. Kerry is a true outdoorsman who
cherishes the environment. No surprise he's the highest rated Senator on environmental issues.

30. Bush in a wetsuit?! Remember what happened to Stockwell Day!
A right-wing Canadian politician who unwisely did a photo-op on a Jet-Ski. He was ridiculed so much that it contributed to his defeat.

14. John Kerry really seems like a man's man
He rides a Harley, Snowboards and Windsurfs.

Bush on the other hand, seems like the rich kid in little league baseball whose parents had bought him the most expensive glove, bat, cleats, batting gloves, etc. and paid for private lessons with a coach, but he still couldn't play worth shit.

18. It's about damn time we get a president who's into some

new sports (snowboarding and windsurfing.) Not that I have anything against golf, but presidents have been golfing since Ike, if not before.

Not to mention that this photo shows Kerry is more coordinated and graceful than Bush* could ever be. If I had 'em, I'd link to photos of Bush* hitting his head getting in and out of the helicopter, dropping Barney the dog on the tarmac, falling off a Segway, after the pretzel incident, etc. Since I don't have 'em, you can just visualize them. ;-)
