Here is what Kerry doesn't get: 9/11 happened BECAUSE we treated terrorists like a nuisance. The problem is that terrorists are evil -- a concept that the French concept of moral equivelance just can't deal with.

I know everyone's jumping on this, including the RNC, and I just hope it doesn't backfire on them.

Kerry is plainly quoted as saying we have to get back to where terrorists are a nusance. He did not say they are (just) a nusance now.

I think Kerry is naive, and I think other words he's said indicates that he really thinks the way to fight terrorists is via defensive measures (vs. offensive). Misquoting him, when the quote is readily available in readily available records, just might backfire.

The problem with Kerry's quote, even if he only said we had to "get back to" the place where terrorists are just a nuisance is that normal thinking people with more than 2 brains cells have NEVER considered terrorists only a nuisance....even before 9-11. Terrorism has always been a very serious thing, and the problem is that Clinton treated it like is was ONLY a nuisance for 8 years. Hence we had 9-11.

This shows that pre 9-11 that Kerry ALSO looked at terrorism as a "nuisance". This will sink him because it shows the American people that he doesn't take it seriously and unless we are hit again like on 9-11 he will treat it like a "nuisance" and not like a war.

Every time he opens his mouth he sinks himself.

GWB landslide...

Another part of the story:

Quote of Kerry:

I suppose putting terrorism in hte same class as drug dealing and prostitution means that there is an acceptable level of terrorism as there is with the other two in the public mind.

So, my question for kerry is, "What is that acceptable level of terrorism?"

and of course in establishing that level, how does one go about prosecuting successful sucide attackers?

Friends we have seen the pinnacle of insanity.

The RNC has ALREADY generated an AD based on the "nuisance" quote....

I wish I could say that I am surprised by Kerry's recent quote..by sadly I am not. This is how the left thinks..and it is why America has a serious decision to make on November 2. This is not a game. Do we follow a a philosophy, or shall I say a global testing that says..We are the world? OR do we follow the philopsophy that defends America, and has no excuses about it.

To say that terrorism is a nuisance is something I would like to hear him say standing at Ground Zero. But, it is what they believe..the Summit view..so we can better understand the reasons to why the evil ones do what they do..they simply can not comprehend that America is right, they believe that America is always wrong..

So, Kerry said for the first time something he believes..and that is scary!

"We have to get back to the place we were"

"We have to get back to the place we were"

"We have to get back to the place we were"

"We have to get back to the place we were"

"We have to get back to the place we were"

"We have to get back to the place we were"

I can't get that out of my mind.

HOW DARE HE.

Where exactly "were" we?

I guess it was just a nuisance in 93 when the towers were bombed the first time.

I guess it was just a nuisance when our barraks were bombed in Saudi,

I guess it was just a nuisance when our embassies were bombed.

I guess it was just a nuisance when the USS Cole was attacked.

I guess its just a nuisance for Israelis when busses, cafes, and hotels blow up.

I am only saddened that almost half of the country actually will vote for this bastard.

I have never been so outraged by a politician in my life.

mjany,

Precisely correct.

Gambling and prostitution are voluntary activities. They only very rarely result in anyone's death. Terrorism on the other hand, is involuntary on the part of the terrorized and always results in tens, hundreds, or even thousands of deaths.

To equate these, even before 9/11, is complete and utter lunacy.

mjany,

Exactly -- think of all those families of the sailors on the U.S.S. Cole -- what a nuisance these sailors died

All these people who were murdered or maimed before Sept. 11 --- what a nuisance this was --- the funeral arrangements, the grief, the changed lives --- what a nuisance.

Let's just back to this nuisance ---

I wonder if the dozen or so men's families that have been beheaded by the TERRORIST would consider it a NUISANCE Mr. Kerry?

This link reveals another Democrat strategy. They are scaring the black voter again. They are doing everything but say the Republicans won't let them vote. Stephanie Tubbs Jones of Cleveland is a Jesse Jackson liberal telling anyone that listens that the Republicans in Ohio are trying to stop them from voting.

And how do Kerry and Democrats get away with actually preaching from the pulpit that they should vote for Kerry. And that Kerry is Gods man? Let a Baptist or Catholic church try to bring President Bush to the pulpit and tell the congregation to vote for Bush and Cheney. Their non profit status would be challanged.
