Aside from the fact we had troops at Tora Bora, for the sake of argument, let us say it was a 100% American effort, and we took heavy casualties. Why is it I think he would be saying today "I would have relied on Afghanistan Troops to go into areas they know best instead of sending our brave men to be butchered."

Looking backwards it is easy to see where we could have improved, what do have for the future Mr. Kerry?

I listened. Kerry bombed so badly that I thought they would call in EOD.

Responding to John Kerry speeches is like responding to New England weather. Depending on poll numbers, focus groups, and whims, he'll say something totally different next week. The relevant point is not that he says stupid things, but that he says almost anything at any time.

Unless I am wrong, the Kerry campaign is in a completely reactive posture. They come out with stuff in response to events, in response to Republican initiatives, in response to perceived Bush gaffes, etc. They come out with NOTHING that actually emanates from a principled program. My record of prognostication on elections is pretty poor, but this kind of reactive approach is a sign of impending disaster for the Dims. And it couldn't happen to a more distateful bunch of guys.

Amazing that he can't tell us ONE THING that he would do differently now.

What can I say more?

I should be the Dem candidate, because I can at least play backseat driver. When I tell you I would handled everything differently, I'll exhibit 20-20 hindsight, and list for you all the brilliant moves I would have made, had I been in the driver's seat. This guy is even blind in hindsight. What kind of Democrat is that?!

Kerry said he would never have "diverted resources so quickly" from Afghanistan before capturing bin Laden.

But we didn't need to "capture" bin Laden; he was already "sleeping with the virgins," as Don Ayatollah would say.

Kerry is a goner. His last, best chance was to do a Clinton at the American Legion today. Bite his lip, apologise for slandering his brothers in arms and tell the truht on whther or not he himself committed war crimes.

They could have finessed it, Americans love a good mea culpa.

Now the Swiftees will take him down in October to levels he has not heretofore seen. Just as Americans love a good mea culpa they hate rat bastards.

I am suddenly reminded of that wonderful commercial with Brett Favre second-guessing normal people on the street.

I am starting to get a little fired up here. I hate kibitzers that can read the past with their crystal ball. JFK is a dishonorable man that has proved he has no psychic abilities("No.There won't be any mass killings in Cambodia after the US pulls out of S.Vietnam")Well, he was certainly less than Prophetic. I have too many Cambodian, Laotian, and Vietnamese friends that would like nothing better than to break his crystal balls.

I would have relied on American troops in Tora Bora...

1) Is John Kerry a military tactician? If not, who did he consult with to come up with this strategy? What General advised him?

2) Given (1) above, John Kerry would fight the war on terror like every other liberal.....from the White House in consultation with polling advisers that would end up over-ruling the commanders on the scene.

The veterans should have asked Kerry what he would have done in Korea. Would he have helped turn South Korea into a starving nation? Would he have campaigned against American fighting soldiers and spread lies about them? Would he have kept them making expensive sneakers for chump change like the Vietnamese? No LPGA stars? No Kia's or Hyundia's for the left to buy? South Korea can thank God that Kerry was born too late to put them into the same Communist hole he helped place the Vietnamese into when he turned traitor.

Try to imagine what Gore would be doing?

He would still have the ACLU trying to find a broken law and be speaking to the public from a straight jacket.

Hey, Kerry wants to be more sensitive!!!!

Maybe he should ask the Russian terrorist how sensitive they wish him to be.
