... in direct conflict with their own interests.
He'd be waiting a long time.
What makes Kerry particularly scary is that he doesn't seem to understand this. I think he takes our European friends at face value, which is surely a bad thing in this Age of Nuance.

Like committing atrocities, getting medals for them, then hurling those medals on the White House Lawn.
This was a crucial speech for Kerry.
How was he received?
That's the thing. He can look back in time and say what he would have done differently, but he cannot come up with a strategy going forward. What a twerp.
Kerry wanted to co-opt Iraq's oil revenues to pay for the invasion and reconstruction.
Imagine how well that would've gone over with the Arabs, to have us in fact steal the oil?
It is bad enough that they allege that we are stealing their oil, but to actually do it? Kerry's policies as a president would threaten to turn every Arab against us, not just the extremists. As it is now,weare doing quite well to have the support of the moderates and the silent majority... At least that's what I'm reading between the lines.
As Rush said, Kerry would have sent little Johnny Edwards in to file a class action lawsuit against Saddam.
I really doubt that.
If we can't have a Conservative Senator, at least we should have totally ineffective liberals...
If Kerry was actually there, he would have collected three bandaid wounds and shagged a*s out of there.
Exactly. Monday morning President.
I would have done everything differently in WWII. I would've declared war on Hitler when he re-occupied the Rhineland, encouraging a coup by the Wehrmacht that would have overthrown him and prevented the whole war and the Holocaust. Then I would have helped the Russians overthrow Stalin, preventing the cold war. Then I would have annexed Saudi Arabia and turned it into a secular democracy, preventing Arab terrorism. Can I be President now?
Hindsight is always 20/20 and always PERFECT.

It was so chilly, I thought Kerry's nose would break off from frostbite.
Not really. It's just the short version of how the dems handled Vietnam.
Genius, John, pure genius. You would have rather sent our troops into unknown territory rather than those who were familiar with the area in which they were entering.
Me thinks that if Afghanistan were fought John Kerry's way, we would have had FAR more casualties. Is a man who would make such a tactical blunder REALLY capable of leading this country?
That one relies on a lot of ignorance, but maybe it will gain traction.
None other than Mumia made exactly that point last week. It's pretty sad when a cop-killer makes more sense than the Rat candidate for president!
He took credit for that. He said he and McCain cleared up that whole POW/MIA issue and that he personally wrote the legislation regarding Agent Orange.
We had almost everyone except France on our side......and France has NO track record of lowering the risks to our soldiers. Considering how tough it is for our soldiers now, imagine how much more difficult it would be over there if they were having to babysit French "soldiers" as well as fight.
