Well, well, well. Perhaps many of you have read the below article which is linked by Matt Drudge to his website:
Quote:
"If I was president, this wouldn't have happened," said Kerry during a noon stop at Honest John's bar and grill in Detroit's Cass Corridor.
And....
"This is about American security and Bush has failed. He has made it so much worse because of his lack of reality in going into Iraq.…We have to destroy Hezbollah," he said.
Talking about destroying Hezbollah. I don't even think any current Democratic leadership have any clue of the war on terror, let alone Kerry "the manipulator" (to get his medals).
Kerry knocks Bush on handling of Mideast conflict
U.S. Sen. John Kerry, D- Mass., who was in town Sunday to help Gov. Jennifer Granholm campaign for her re-election bid, took time to take a jab at the Bush administration for its lack of leadership in the Israeli-Lebanon conflict.
"If I was president, this wouldn't have happened," said Kerry during a noon stop at Honest John's bar and grill in Detroit's Cass Corridor.
Bush has been so concentrated on the war in Iraq that other Middle East tension arose as a result, he said.
"The president has been so absent on diplomacy when it comes to issues affecting the Middle East," Kerry said. "We're going to have a lot of ground to make up (in 2008) because of it."
Kerry lost by a narrow margin to Bush in 2004 and plans to seek the Democratic nomination for the presidency in 2008.
Today marks the 12th day of fighting between Israel and Lebanon. Israel launched air strikes after Hezbollah militants, whom operate within Lebanon, kidnapped two Israeli soldiers in an attempt to swap them for prisoners.
Israel began a ground invasion, sending tanks and troops across the border as thousands of Lebanese have fled to escape the fighting.
Hezbollah guerillas should have been targeted with other terrorist organizations, such as al-Qaida and the Taliban, which operate in Afghanistan and Pakistan, Kerry said. However, Bush, has focused military strength on Iraq.
"This is about American security and Bush has failed. He has made it so much worse because of his lack of reality in going into Iraq.…We have to destroy Hezbollah," he said.

Remember the operative words here - 'If I was President' - didn't happen, not going to, all because of a fine group of strong men and women who will never let this country be taken over by the fake traitor squad. Thank you all once again. |

If you think about this, Kerry is right, for once. Israel would not be defending herself if Kerry had won the election.
He would have made sure they received nothing and pressured them to "enter a dialogue" with Hamas and Hezbollah, demanding they give up more of their land.
Kerry can lay claim to it being Democrat Presidents of the past that helped and supported Israel, but there are few in the Democrat party today as conservative minded as those he speaks of. Certainly not Kerry. |

Never knew Kerry was a clairvoyant, in addition to his other considerable skills (such as confabulation). Maybe this new talent is seared, seared into his brain?

Wow... something I can actually respect him for... As much as I dislike him.. I like him the same way. Is that possible?
I think his charm is the only thing going for him. Whether or not it's his true feelings are another thing. |

Kerry is, as usual, long on mouth and short on solutions.
I wonder how he would propose we "destroy Hezbollah"? _________________ "If he believes his 1971 indictment of his country and his fellow veterans was true, then he couldn't possibly be proud of his Vietnam service." |

Bill Clinton, although he spoke in favor of Lieberman, has already announced that he will support Lamont if the latter wins the Dem nomination. This in spite of the fact that, in that eventuality, Lieberman will still be on the ticket albeit as an Independent. So today, Clinton likes Joe better than Lamont. Tomorrow, Clinton likes Lamont better than Joe. Is this Clinton in a Kerry disguise?
What are friends for? Nothing in liberal politics.

Honest John's Bar and Grill and Kerry is there? What a great non-sequitur.
I'm surprised the place didn't fall down or lightening strike it or something.
Hey Stevie, that's cool that Cavuto read one of your e-mails on the air. I bet you flipped out when you saw it. It's one thing for him to read it and then to happen to be watching when it's read is such a chance thing.

Kerry is 100% correct. This wouldn't have happened if he were POTUS, because we'd already be under Sharia law. _________________ Swift Boats - Qui Nhon (12/69-4/70), Cat Lo (4/70-5/70), Vung Tau (5/70-12/71) |
