Honestly, the headline is ridiculous considering what is in the article ... but I hope a lot of undecideds see it and skip over the article.
btt
Unfortunately the side effect was to gut the state Civil Defense operations that we are now desperately trying to rebuild via CERT, etc.
Typical of newsmax
but I hope a lot of undecideds see it and skip over the article.
I don't think 'undecideds' read newsmax.
At the time, in the heyday of the U.S. nuclear-freeze movement, GOP sources say, Kerry -- who was then Dukakis' lieutenant governor -- bragged that he was the impetuous behind the order after having campaigned aggressively against Reagan-era nuclear policies in his bid for statewide office.
The order, which in part read, "Whereas the existing and potential strength of nuclear weapons is such that nuclear war can neither be won nor survived, it can only be prevented; and Whereas the only effective defense against the horrors of nuclear weapons lies in their elimination and in the prevention of nuclear war or attacks," said the Commonwealth of Massachusetts "shall seek to ensure the safety of its citizens by pursuit of policies reflecting a serious commitment to prevention of nuclear war." "Such policies," it continued, "shall include education of citizens concerning the real nature of nuclear war and efforts to influence national policy towards negotiation of an end to the nuclear-arms race," but that "No funds shall be expended by the Commonwealth for crisis relocation planning for nuclear war."
That's from The Washington Times...
True. A better headline would be, "Kerry refused to prepare for nuclear attack".
Misleading headline, but nontheles not the statements of a moderate or even a left of center type.
But Kerry would just go to the UN.
Kerry is a dangerous choice. All this news about how he has voted in the past. All this light shed on how he would run to the UN.
IT ONLY GIVES OUR ENEMIE'S CONFIDENCE!
They see another KLINTOON who would respond with "lawyers".
And they see that if they attack...there will be no reprecussions.
The 9/11 investigations have quotes from capture terrorist leaders who say that the general thought was...America will just send lawyers.
This latest news on Kerry's true views.....puts that thought back in their heads. If he wins.....there will be attacks. One of the reasons they have held off on the smaller attacks....is because they know Bush will go after them. AND that Bush has set it up where these dudes get busted if they blink.
