'Bunny Suit' Boo-boo Besets Kerry

You'd think Mary Beth Cahill, the pro-abortion radical who is John Kerry's chief handler, would have enough sense not to keep drawing attention to his hilariously botched Dukakis-like photo opportunity. But no. So we'll give her the publicity she demands.

The New York Post said he looked like a sperm played by Woody Allen in "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex but Were Afraid to Ask." Others are labeling it the "bunny suit" incident, which reminds us that this is the most humiliating such case since Ralphie's parents forced him to wear the rabbit jammies sent by his batty aunt in the wonderful 1983 movie "A Christmas Story."

"This was a leaked photo," Cahill complained to Brit Hume last night on Fox News Channel.

"This was a legitimate tour of a NASA facility, and this photograph came out of absolutely nowhere. We were surprised then. We aren't surprised now," she claimed.

NASA, however, says it gave the photos to Kerry's campaign for review before posting several on Kennedy Space Center's Web site.

This morning the gang at "Fox & Friends" said Democrat Sen. Bill Nelson of Florida, who had accompanied Kerry at Kennedy Space Center, took NASA's side.

Even the New York Times couldn't ignore this one today. "If there was anything Sen. John Kerry's strategists were hoping to avoid this week, it was the image of a Massachusetts liberal in funny headgear."

The Times cornered the reclusive Michael Dukakis in the shadows of the Democrat convention. "You're not going to ask me about Kerry and the suit, are you?" he said. Yep. "Stupid question," he replied.

Perhaps Kerry will comment on his baby-blue bunny suit. What's up, doc?
