True to form, the senator who effused about the entertainers reflecting the heart and soul of America now says...

The Democratic nominee and his running mate said it was that kind of anger toward the president that prompted entertainers at Thursday's Democratic fundraising concert in New York to attack Bush as a "cheap thug" and a killer. "Obviously some performers, in my judgment and John's, stepped over a line neither of us believes appropriate, but we can't control that," Kerry said. "On the other hand, we understand the anger, we understand the frustration."

This limp and predicted rejoinder in response to the criticism of his earlier statement supporting the event. Unfortunately, copyright issues prevent the Kerry campaign from releasing requested videos of the event. Riiiight.
