Democrats mix congratulations with criticism (Kerry said he'd have nabbed Saddam sooner)

The capture of Saddam Hussein was praised by the Democratic presidential candidates yesterday, but most took the opportunity to reiterate what they see as President Bush's failed Iraqi policy or take shots at front-runner Howard Dean, who opposed the war.

[seamus]

Can you believe Kerry. On such a joyous day, he thinks it's a good idea to nitpick with Bush, and has the gall to suggest that if he was president, he'd have caught Saddam quicker.

What bunk. How does waiting for the eternity it would have taken to get France and Germany involved in the war have landed Saddam faster? Idiot.

Request to John Kerry......

"Make yourself useful and pass me the effin ketchup"

[DarthVader]

John Kerry is a legend in his own mind. Lets start to call him Narcissus Bloathead.

"Sen. John Kerry, Massachusetts Democrat, called the news "terrific," but suggested that he could have brought Saddam to justice faster than did Mr. Bush."

Kerry: "Look I'm just stating the F'in truth!!

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Kerry would have used those successful techniques used by the French in Viet Nam.

[TommyDale]

Earth to Kerry: "Hey, John -- why the long face?" President Bush kept the U.S. forces in the hunt for Saddam just long enough to capture him in time for the election. So what? Why the long face?

[Cicero]

Chirac is one of Saddam's closest friends and associates. He sold him his nuclear reactor. Koffi Annan got most of the UN's expense budget in recent years, plus salaries for 10,000 bureaucrats, from Saddam's slush fund, AKA the oil for food program. Putin was also an old friend of Saddam's. Would these guys turn in a friend, or more to the point, bite the hand that fed them?

we might have caught Saddam Hussein sooner," said Mr. Kerry,

The last democrat that was POTUS did a good job with Osama.

"I was obsessed with him"......Bill Clinton

[Chaos]

What a shame that he will not get to prove it to us. Bush already done the job and Kerry is not going to be prez anyway!

[VOYAGER]

Sen. John Kerry, Massachusetts Democrat, called the news "terrific," but suggested that he could have brought Saddam to justice faster than did Mr. Bush.

Kerry is a male g-----l and a flaccid one at that.

[Wild Irish Rogue]

When Mr Viet Nam says "he" would have gotten Saddam sooner-he is criticizing the efforts of the troops and covert operatives, who are putting their lives on the line-every single day. What an Fing dirtbag.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Of course he would have. They found him in a "rat hole" didn't they?

[Prime Choice]

Can you believe Kerry. On such a joyous day, he thinks it's a good idea to nitpick with Bush, and has the gall to suggest that if he was president, he'd have caught Saddam quicker.

Considering some of the things that have issued from Kerry's mouth, very little he says surprises me anymore. The man is a walking fount of filth.

[VRWC_minion]

The trail itself, with all of the revelations of the horrors and the Iraq people making the case will be like a constant made for television endorsement of the war. The value in PR of the trail is astounding.

[GalaxieFiveHundred]

John Kerry and his campaign manager, Mr. Peabody, make final adjustments to the Wayback Machine prior to Kerry going back in time to apprehend Saddam Hussein swifter than President Bush. Upon returning, Kerry states he will then attend to preventing Hindenburg, Titantic and Kobe Bryant tragedies.

When asked to elaborate, Vietnam Vet John F'n Kerry, who served in f'n Vietnam during the f'n Vietnam War, said "I'da f'n parachuted in and strangled the f'er with my own f'n hands. I served in f'n Vietnam, you know."

[wayoverontheright]

"If we had done this in a globalized way, if we had brought more people to the table, we might have caught Saddam Hussein sooner,"

He may have a point. We would've had to INVADE Paris, and there would have been a pretty good chance of catching Saddam there.

[Lee Heggy]

Kerry-I would have caught him sooner.

Dean-I would have caught a much bigger Saddam.

Clark-I would have embarrassed him more.

Lieberman-I would have had his parents in for a little talk.

[midwestmidnight]

Well, well, well... Than why didn't the very french looking, John F-ing Kerry bring the Viet Nam war to an end when he was there?
