Not sure what Kerry expected. Maybe he thought the the soldiers have short attention spans. I mean they are stuck abroad due to low quality eductions.

What I'm implying is that either you are blind or I am cause your title says John Kerry eating alone, now alone is one single solitary person by themselves in my book yet like I said there appears to be someone eating right directly across from him unless I'm seeing things cause my meds are not working.:eek:lol:

point taken in a literal sense, however, since the whole purpose of his trip was to meet and greet with the troops whom he insulted weeks earlier, the caption that came along with the photo I linked to tells it all.

"This is a true story.....Check out this photo from our mess hall at the US Embassy yesterday
morning. Sen. Kerry found himself all alone while he was over here. He
cancelled his press conference because no one came, he worked out alone
in the gym w/o any soldiers even going up to say hi or ask for an
autograph (I was one of those who was in the gym at the same time), and
he found himself eating breakfast with only a couple of folks who are
obviously not troops

might not be the same table, in fact, I doubt that it is. it's possible his handlers had him move to a populated table just so they could add counter spin. he doesn't look like he's having much of a discussion with anybody, does he?

This picture is definitely not taken a the same function as the previous picture. The picture posted here was most likely taken a year ago. These soldiers are in DCUs instead of ACUs, the styrofoam cups are of different designs, and the table cloth is indeed different. The only similarity between the two pictures is that John Kerry is in them and wearing a blue oxford shirt.

Also a comment from HotTalk - Where MG1968 got the first picture.

The original photograph was taken at the Basra Air Station on or about December 16 or 19, 2006, not at the US Embassy as listed in the text. Those are flags of Britain and Portugal in the background. The countries that make up Multi-National Division Southeast in Iraq are Britain, Italy, Japan, Australia, Romania, Portugal, Denmark, Czech Republic, and Lithuania. Reuters has another picture from a different angle (same shirt), that shows male and female Soldiers sitting with Senator Kerry, totally different than the doctored photo you portrayed.

There should not have been any units in Iraq, 2006, still fitted with DCUs. That is the crux of my argument against the picture you posted.

powerline blog, which has served as my original source of information, has received correct information regarding Kerry's seemingly lonely breakfast.

Can you handle the truth?

It was a fun story while it lasted. Fun because the Kerry fanboys got into such a froth over the thing.
