www.scrappleface.com is a satire site, but sometimes it can fool you.

This is parody:


Kerry: Bush Made Iraq Terrorist Haven, Cost U.S. Jobs
(2004-09-24) -- President George Bush has made Iraq a magnet for terrorists and as a result has deprived New York City, Washington and other major American cities of thousands of jobs and millions of dollars of economic activity.

"Say what you will about terrorism, and I'm not making any value judgements, but it's an industry that generates huge cash streams for construction, medical and legal services, law enforcement and other key economic sectors," said Mr. Kerry. "By invading Iraq, George W. Bush sent all of that cash overseas. It's another example of how this administration has outsourced our future."

"If we weren't spending that $200 billion making Iraq a terrorist haven, we would have money to put 150,000 fully-armed homeland security agents on the streets of New York, D.C. and L.A.," said Mr. Kerry, a professional Vietnam veteran who is also a U.S. Senator, "And we'd have enough money left over to make sure every one of those street-corner soldiers had full body armor."

Me too!!! Only there is one MAJOR problem with John F-ing Kerry's "professionalism"..... He wouldn't amount to a pimple on a military professionals A** !! Evil or Very Mad

The only requirement for a person to do what he did is a large yellow stripe down his back. He didn't have the "cajones" to stand with his crew and finish his tour. He couldn't get out of Vietnam fast enough so he falsified reports and leaped into the arms of "Hanoi Jane" and her band of idiots.

We WILL have our day of deliverance on Nov. 2nd Very Happy
