Kerry on Letterman

Kerry laughs it up on Letterman. Supposedly Kerry is making the rounds of talk shows (he also did Regis & Kelly this morning) to make him more "likable" to the American public. If that's the goal, once again, he's failed miserably. He looked like such a misplaced dork sitting their forcing jokes with Letterman. And it was obvious Letterman couldn't have been more bored.

My favorite part was when Dave asked him specifically what he would do to bring more of our allies into the fold in Iraq. Kerry's response was something like "I would reach out to the nations of the world... blah, blah, blah... and bring the to the table to discuss the important issues... blah, blah, blah... like I wrote about four years ago such as global warming." Huh? Now we're going to forget about the war on terror and focus on the war on global warming?

And did anyone else find it ironic that the only other Letterman guest, and immediately following Kerry, was the band Green Day, promoting their new album American Idiot?
