But if and when you do it, Jim, you have to do it in a way that passes the test, that passes the global test where your countrymen, your people understand fully why you're doing what you're doing and you can prove to the world that you did it for legitimate reasons

I am afraid people didn't catch taht. I sure as hell know my Dad didn't.

Thats why we need to drive it home, I know that most talk show hosts and editorial pages(save the lefties) grabbed a hold of that, even at the poker table I made sure this lady knew that, she is from Erope somewhere so she is a main consituency of Kerrys though so I doubt I changed her mind.

Well.. that global test don't cut it..I'm sorry but the Constituion guarantees me that the government will ACT to defend us against our enemies... When my kids are being burned and raped in their elementary school by the Islamic Facists will Kerry decide that well it doesn't quite pass the world's litmus test for us to act... This guy may be a good debater but he is an empty suit a snake oil salesman. I pray everyday that people continue to see how terrible a choice Kerry would be for president.

Keep in mind too that Kerry has stated he would bring Madeline Albright into his administration and have Carl Levin as Secretary of Defense.

Lord help us.

Kerry got the questions beforehand. Look at the transcript.

At one point he says to Lehrer, "I understand we'll be discussing homeland security later."

How did he know that?

I don't think it would be a very useful debating point, but if you want to look at facts, France is no longer our ally. Moreover, it's doubtful whether France has ever been our ally.

For a brief while they dealt with us in the 1870s, because they wanted to poke a finger in England's eye. Otherwise, they have been nothing but trouble whenever we've gotten involved with them, from the French and Indian Wars to Charles de Gaulle.
