I also want to point out what John Kerry is doing NOW to undermine President Bush's foreign policy. This is real Hillary-style chutzpah from Kerry:
ON FOREIGN ASSIGNMENT - KERRY
With it increasingly clear to his campaign that he will win the Democratic presidential nomination, Sen. John Kerry is planning at least two trips overseas, most likely in April, so as to allow those visits to be integrated into his campaign propaganda.
Kerry is putting out feelers to British Prime Minister Tony Blair, as well as French President Jacques Chirac, about holding meetings with him during a European trip. As well, the Kerry campaign is examining his schedule to allow for a trip to Israel, and perhaps several Arab nations.
"There hasn't been talk of Iraq, though as a U.S. Senator and veteran of combat, it would certainly be appropriate for him to venture into Iraq," says a Kerry campaign staffer. "We have received indications from a number of young men and women in Iraq that they very much want Senator Kerry to visit them. His leadership just shines through."
The trips are one of a number of steps the Kerry campaign is taking as it rolls through the primary season. Another is continued opposition research on the President. According to a staffer on the blue-ribbon 9/11 commission, several Kerry Senate staffers, as well as associates of the Kerry campaign have reached out to longtime Democrats working on the commission about the work the group is taking.
"We're hearing Kerry is trying to pull all kinds of strings to find any damaging material on the Bush administration pre-9/11," says a Republican working with the commission. "We've been warning about this from the beginning. We've got men and women working here that cannot contain their hatred for this administration. Frankly, we don't have that much damaging material, but if there's stuff here, you can bet the Kerry campaign will get it."

(IMO) Mr. Medals John Kerry: Once a traitor, always a traitor.
That's why they want to keep this commission going as long as possible. Same thing is going to happen with the intelligence commission. We've seen over and over again how weak Republicans on the Hill are in the face of Dem aggression. What makes anyone think Republicans on these commissions are any different?
Win or lose in November, the Dems are out to hang, draw and quarter GWB's reputation and credibility. They are on the march and are very motivated. Why? They can't afford to let stand GWB's very strong America-first foreign policy, which is built on the strongest defense of U.S. sovereignty at least since Truman had the guts to use the bomb. GWB's foreign policy is a huge blow to the left's most cherished wet dream, a global superstate. Generation after generation, they have been working toward it since Marx's day. They aren't about to quit now. That's really why they hate him so.
