This is gold. Please read thoroughly.
John Forbes Kerry must not win election to the presidency or we are doomed and I mean doomed. He is a seriously dangerous man with a seriously dangerous agenda.
BOOKMARKED.

Kerry is Shillery's stalking horse.
If Bush is poised to win big, Kerry won't challenge her iron grip over the party and she'll be well positioned to run in four years.
If things are close in October, she'll arrange it so he has an "accident", and she'll step in and replace him... and ride the resulting sympathy wave to the White House.

Backhoe's Kerry file is loaded...we should alert Karl Rove!
I worry about all the voters who don't have a clue what a disaster Kerry's election would be and why.

just as Americans exaggerate their own goodness, they exaggerate their enemies' badness. The Soviet Union wasn't nearly as imperialistic as American politicians warned, Kerry argues.

Breathtaking.
Do we need to list the Communist countries?

Opinion Journal ***Haughty and Haiti
Speaking of conspiracy theories, Kerry already has one about Haiti, a country he discovered just last week. On NBC's "Today" show this morning, the Associated Press reports, Kerry "said he thought there ought to be some investigation of the claim that [deposed despot Jean-Bertrand] Aristide was forced out and escorted by U.S. troops."
Here's the Kerry quote: "I have a very close friend in Massachusetts who talked directly to people who have made that allegation. I don't know the truth of it. I really don't. But I think it needs to be explored and we need to know the truth of what happened."
This has become standard operating procedure for Democrats: put out some outlandish statement (President Bush had foreknowledge of Sept. 11, Bush was a "deserter"), then say you "don't know the truth of it" but it's "out there" and "we need to know" what happened. The Republican National Committee has two Web pages--here and here--chronicling Kerry's conspiracy-mongering, and of course former candidates like Howard Dean and Wesley Clark have been playing the same game.
When America was liberating Iraq, of course, Kerry opposed the action because "allies" like the French weren't on board. He now seems to oppose the liberation of Haiti from Aristide even though, as Agence France-Presse reports, "Aristide's departure 'was the result of perfect co-ordination' between Washington and Paris, French Foreign Minister Dominique de Villepin said." You'd almost think Kerry likes dictators--or at least any dictator President Bush acts to depose.***

"Haiti,a country he discovered just last week!"LOL
Who do Kerry, Rangel and Waters trust? Do they trust our Secretary of State,an American hero,Colin Powell? Of course not,they choose to trust a man involved with thugs,necklacing and the plunder of Haiti.

The Kerry doctrine ***Keep in mind that Kerry voted against the use of force to dislodge Saddam Hussein from Kuwait. When a dictator invades a neighbor, seizes strategic oil fields and consolidates his position as the region's No. 1 flaming carbuncle, Kerry rejects a multilateral response. Ragtag rebels in a perpetually dysfunctional state threaten a U.S.-installed incompetent, and Kerry sends in the Marines.
But Kerry's not alone. Haiti has a way of making people say odd things. Rep. Charles Rangel, D-N.Y., and members of the Congressional Black Caucus said they believed Jean-Bertrand Aristide had been pushed out by George W. Bush.
"Unlike the reports coming out of the State Department," Rangel said, "President Aristide says it was a coup, that he felt he was kidnapped, that he was told by the United States authority that they could no longer protect his life." Hmmm. The United States offers him an armed guard to replace his own armed guard, which ran off to whoop and loot, and it's a coup. It's kidnapping.
Since when is it the United States' responsibility to safeguard Aristide from the consequences of incompetence?
Today the State Department may be stuffed with liars, but put President Kerry in office, and Rangel will suddenly find them an unimpeachable source of intel. Put President Kerry in office, and we'll combine the self-castigating ethos of the Vietnam era with the meals-on-wheels nation-building of the '90s. ****

"This is really good, despite being from CBS"
Yes, and it's written by a guy from The New Republic, no neo-conservative he. He's a good writer Foer tho' and we should all be happy he's brought this stuff out.
It indicates how truly un-American Kerry is. I won't say anti-American, because that would be inflamatory. He would be an exceptionally bad president, he would care far more about probably everybody else in the world that he would about Americans, whom he seems to distrust in a deep, essential way.
This explains to me why I keep thinking he makes Clinton look good. At least Clinton was a real American person.
