Great point here and deserves repeating |

Well Mr. Kerry, this might have something to do with the fact that terrorists killed 3000 AMERICANS on 9-11.
Not 3000 Russians or 3000 Frechies or 3000 Germans or 3000 Chinese...
NO
3000 Americans.
Who cares how much the war on terror costs? We must make sure that terrorist won't have the chance to kill another 3000 Americans.
This Kerry is one big failure. |

The more I see this abominable man the more resolute I become to see him soundly defeated. Not just by two or three points, but a full and complete utter thrashing by the people of this country. So much so that he runs home to Mamma Tee with his tail between his legs and cries like a baby for days.
He is dangerous for the safety and security of this country. Anyone who believes otherwise has drunk the Kerry Kool-aid and is not existing on the same plane of existence as the rest of us. |

The speech was billed as a National Security speech, then he spent most of it talking about health care and social security.
He even used the old Democratic Party stand by slogan “they are going to cut your social security”(Clinton guys are in town!).
He said that the $200 billion that was spent in Iraq could have been SPENT on Health Care.
Thus, if I understand him right, the money would have been SPENT.
Then he talks about the record deficits!
So if you spend the $200 billion on the “right” to affordable health care (I think I need a new copy of the US Constitution because I can’t find this right in the one I have) wouldn’t the deficit remain the same?
Why can’t I follow his logic?

I really can't keep up with the flip/flops that Kerry is doing nowadays with regards to his foreign policy. I am having vertigo spells trying to figure out what he is saying from one day to the next.
Two good articles today summarize the various positions Johnny boy has taken recently:
From the NY Post:
http://www.nypost.com/postopinion/editorial/28099.htm
Quote: | Round and round and round he goes, and where he'll stop — not even he knows. |
and
Quote: | For sure, John Forbes Kerry isn't the first candidate who tried to please all the voters all the time — and ended up looking like an ass. |
The Washington Times also wrote about Kerry's latest stance on Iraq:

I lost my job because of the economic impact of 9-11-01, I was working in the travel industry. I was involuntarily unemployed for about 15 weeks, but otherwise have stayed gainfully employed on contract projects. The economy is very strong now -- 3 job offers last week.
I think the $200 billion spent killing terrorists over there is worth every penny just in preventing a daily drive by a damaged Pentagon. I think the $200 billion spent killing terrorists over there is worth every penny in not witnessing huge towers falling.
I think another $2 trillion spent killing every terrorists who ever thought about breathing would be worth not having to witness another Breslen, Russia tragedy. These monsters tortured children.
No issue is more important than the war on terrorism. Islamic terrorists want to return the world to the 5th or 6th century. Gay marriage, abortion, healthcare, out-sourcing jobs, women's rights, affirmative action, education --- none of these issues mean anything in a 5th century world. If we do not continue to fight this war, --- AND FIGHT THIS WAR TO WIN --- everything else is meaningless. |
