AMERICA - The Right Way!! (Day 1350) [Remember the Trade Center!!]

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

America will NEVER seek a permission slip to defend the security of our country!

Good morning!!

Do not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!

Senator John Effin Kerry demonstrated last night why he should never be granted admittance to the White House, even as a guest, let alone as President.

First and foremost--there has to be a "global test" to protect America. Get that! If this country had information in its possession that a reasonable person (and remember that's the test that was used and its threshold exceeded for Saddam) could interpret as being a threat, this Nation would forego even the defense of its citizens with John Kerry as President!

Think about this, let it sink in. Now let's make it personal for a moment. You would not be allowed, for example, to take a different way home even if you knew on your normal route there was an individual with a weapon ready to kill you! In John Kerry's world, you would take that route--AND YOU WOULD SURELY DIE! But that's all right--you did not do anything to protect yourself, so you died nobly.

John Kerry had the unmitigated temerity to say the President didn't do every thing he could to protect our soldiers in Iraq, even accusing Mr. Bush of withholding the body armor that would make our soldiers safer under enemy small arms fire. This despite the fact that SENATOR KERRY VOTED AGAINST THE $87 BILLION PACKAGE THAT WOULD HAVE PROVIDED SUCH MATERIEL.

Senator John Effin tried to duck the word "lie" with regard to President Bush, saying he would never reach down to that level and use that term in reference to the President. An interesting show of deference that is most unusual for the Senator. In a September 2003 campaign appearance, Mr. Kerry said: This Administration has lied to us. They have misled us. And they have broken their promises to us. In the Boston Globe, Sen. Kerry was quoted as saying: Bush has lied about his reason for going to war in Iraq... [Source: Patrick Healy, "Kerry Camp Leaves N.H. Expectations Behind in Polls, Senator Now Seeks Spot in Top Two," The Boston Glove, December 18, 2003. Emphasis in original.]

And then there was the quip about the NY Subway being shut down. KERRY: That's why they had to close down the subway in New York when the Republican Convention was there. (Making a point that Bush has been inadequate in protecting America.) FACT: THE NYC SUBWAY DID NOT CLOSE AT ALL DURING THE CONVENTION!

The Senator also is geography, religiously, and ethnically challenged. He made a reference to looking at KGB records in Treblinka Square. TREBLINKA WAS ONE OF THE MOST NOTORIOUS NAZI DEATH CAMPS!

Now some of the minor details--Sen. Kerry stated the Bush tax cut only went to the President and himself! Being fair and realizing that he was using the two of them as a metaphor for the rich, he's still wrong. The tax cut was across the board.

Kerry says we spent $200 billion on the war on Iraq. We've only spent $120 billion. Sen. Kerry only arrived at the higher number by including what has been appropriated by Congress to spend in the future if needs require!

Senator Kerry even seemed to know where Bin Laden was! He indicated he was in Tora Bora and US forces could have nailed him. Problem is, there was no evidence he was there [maybe the Senator would have known this had he bothered to make time to attend intel briefings!].

He still thinks he knows where The Evil One is, making reference several times to his being in Afghanistan--if he knows where Osama is, why doesn't he tell US military forces?

Senator Kerry talks as if bilateral negotiations would work in North Korea. Senator, they were tried. That's how they got the Bomb!

The Senator continued to vacilate on the issue of Iraq--during the 90 minutes he was saying it was the "wrong war," then the right war, then the wrong war, then the right war, then the wrong war, before finishing up with it being the right war (it's difficult counting the flips and flops). On Iraq at the beginning: And he rushed the war in Iraq without a plan to win the peace. Now, that is not the judgment that a president of the United States ought to make. On Iraq at the end: I'm not talking about leaving. I'm talking about winning.

But that statement is another lie. He wants out of Iraq in four years, and starting to pull away in six months. He said so earlier in the debate.

And that's just what can be crammed into an hour's typing this morning. There are certainly others!

Now the end was notable. President Bush respectfully solicit the listeners for their vote, just as he did in the 2000 election. Senator Kerry ended without even bothering to ask. Small point, but it shows a lack of humility on the behalf of the Senator that smakcs of arrogance.

For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.

[kassie]

It makes me mad that the GOP doesn't pick up on the way kerry voted.

kerry keeps saying it was all in how he said it

The fact is he VOTED against the bill. It doesn't matter how he says it. The point is he voted AGAINST it.

I'm having a small melt down here.

Good morning, Peach! Thank you for sending me the link last evening to the live thread. I didn't get it until I got up this morning because I set one of my VCR's and my TV tuner in one of my computers BOTH to record the debate and went straight to bed. I can't stay up late these days. I did all that recording in case kerry went nuts and lost his temper, I would have it both on analog and digital format. Unfortunately, he didn't. I have only watched the first half hour or so and I've seen enough.

I got so sick of kerry and fast forwarding through his garbage that I decided to just get the reviews from Bill Bennet, Laura Ingraham, Rush, maybe Blabbity, and, of course, from ALL the great people of KEEN DISCERNMENT right here at ATWR.

[Molly Pitcher]

My husband said this a.m. that in retrospect maybe NOT having the lights would have been better. K would have droned on, and if Bush lost a little time, that would have been okay, since he tended to repeat himself anyway.

Caller to Bennett compares Bush to Gary Cooper in High Noon.

Good reference.

One thing I've often said is that Bush - leading us - is determined to protect K and his ilk, whether they deserve or want it themselves.

That IS Will Kane.

CANNOT forget this Global Test business. WOW!

[Molly Pitcher]

Hi 2/3rds. Bennett has had some great calls this a.m.

[prairiebreeze]

Good morning everybody! A bit of a short night last night ;^). Looks like lots of articles on debate analysis Molly. The live thread was peppered by doom and gloomers, many of them trolls. The bottom line is that sKerry told some whoppers last night. I expect we will hear lots of debunking from Bush Camp in the next several days. Here's the link to the Bush-Cheney website debunking page. It continually refreshed every few seconds last night. Even it got very slow at times due to heavy traffic.

[kassie]

What scares me about the Global Test comment was how kerry matter-of-factly said it. Like it was a given.

[prairiebreeze]

Here's the link (much more caffeine needed obviously)

[Molly Pitcher]

Bennett is playing the High Noon music!

Yes, I left the Live thread because of that, and finally the debate also.

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

What I also noticed last night was how Kerry's remarked always seemed to dovetail into Leher's next question.

Wierd.

Unless someone had the questions before hand...

Hmmm...

[ride the whirlwind]

Good opening, as usual. That talk of a global test is certainly alarming.

The Facts for Debate 1

Thursday, September 30, 2004

Statement from Bush-Cheney ’04 Campaign Chairman Governor Marc Racicot

"Tonight, President George W. Bush stood in stark contrast to a vacillating Senator John Kerry. President Bush showed Americans a detailed path forward in the War on Terror, a plan that will ensure that America fights the enemy in Iraq and Afghanistan – not in America’s cities. People saw for themselves tonight where John Kerry would lead our military, our allies and the world in the War on Terror – down a bumpy road paved with indecision and cynicism."

[prairiebreeze]

Kerry admitted on live TV he'd give Iran nuclear material. and then try to get it back if they turned out to be lying.

Gee, that's going to resonate well with the American people. (/sarc)

Prairie

[ride the whirlwind]

I see we linked the same thing. LOL

[Molly Pitcher]

That is an excellent point!! YES, it's clearly deeply ingrained assumption.

Well, if it were Clinton or even Gore, they might hide that from us. NOt K, and THAT is good!

More from Bennett: Bush came across as a classier guy, nicer, more neighborly.
