Will Someone Tell John Kerry to Shut the Hell Up?

He's at it again. Not satisfied with having lost the presidential election in 2004 due to his douchebag personality, John Kerry is now trying to lose the midterm elections for the Democrats. Speaking at Pasedena City College he said "You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq."

In other words, the troops are a bunch of ill-educated losers.

Can somebody please stuff this moron into a sack at least until November 8? Or indefinitely.

Update: Apparently he's decided to stuff himself into a sack, cancelling his public appearances over the next few days. Good idea John!

"One party official" is quoted by cnn.com as saying "I would be surprised if you see him welcomed out there anywhere and certainly not in a race that is meaningful."

Yet Another Update: Kerry says he was saying that Bush was the ill-educated one stuck in Iraq, not the troops. This is a plausible explanation, but I'd still rather see the guy sit the next few days out.
