Comments are in the article. This should be of interest to Freepers who listened to what they could tolerate of Kerry's speech earlier today.

Kerry's speech today, like his whole campaign, is predicated on the assumption that the American People are stupid, ignorant, and led around by the mainstream press.

The assumption is wrong. He's going to get creamed on Election Day.

[JustaCowgirl]

John Kerry would never allow the facts to get in the way of a good speech.

[OH Swing Voter]

Fantastic! Thanks for the great post!

[TexasCajun]

Debate material for sure!
Nice job.

More power to the author for listening to the looney...I am so tired of the lies and exaggerations, it's like Clinton's still in office...

He already said he didn't read "Unfit For Command", but I guess he already knows about that historical event.

[MikefromOhio]

He also needs to realize we have more partners now than we did in the First Gulf War...


if you said that, sorry, i just skimmed.... :)

Your writings are always stimulating......Here's some interestingfacts you may wish to use in the future:

On September 8, 2004, the Los Angeles Times reported (The Conflict In Iraq, U.S. Toll in Iraq Reaches 1,000) that through September 7, 2004, 1,000 US soldiers lost their lives in Iraq due to both hostile and non-hostile actions...[snip]

According to the FBI Uniform Crime Report of May 24, 2004, the number of murders reported during calendar years 2002 and 2003 show a comparable death toll exists in several US cities. Los Angeles, Chicago and New York City reported 1,168, 1,246 and 1,184 murders during the subject 24-month period.

“Instead of using U.S. forces to capture Osama bin Laden ... the President outsourced the job to Afghan warlords, who let bin Laden slip away.”

For those liberals who insist that Osama bin Laden is still alive, I would like for them to provide proof that he, in fact, is alive? bin Laden has not been seen for nearly four years. Possibly, and probably, these liberals are chasing a terrorist ghost of the past?

I also liked how the author slipped the word 'oursourced' in this article too!!

Bookmarked.

This is a good compilation of F'n's blithering incoherence...

[CROSSHIGHWAYMAN]

Hasn’t Kerry ever read a history book?

Liberals don't read books.

Liberals write books.

(or have their flunkees write them)

[ProfoundMan]

That was beautiful, John. Thank you so much!

Do you have power back yet?

[Verginius Rufus]

While it is true that the Soviets were unable to defeat the Afghan resistance, I think the Taliban took over in Afghanistan only after the Soviets withdrew.

[OldFriend]

Please keep in mind that the gigolo was speaking in Philadelphia.

[Jean S]

This is excellent.
Thanks.

Spirited!

Effective!

Short & concise even.

So, why is the White House and national repubbie's NOT saying these things?

(Or, asking a different question, why is the national press corpse not saying that they are saying these same things?)

[mass55th]

Great article. With all the time John Boy spent in Europe as a boy, you'd think he'd have learned some of its history.

Honorable Congressman,

When wind-surfing, your books and newspapers tend to get wet.

What of the two great mysteries -- The navy disavows any knowledge of his third silver-star writeup, and the date of his honorable discharge indicates it was pardoned at the end of the Clinton administration?

It's all simple-minded hindsight.The unforeseen is inherent in war, thus it can not be planned for. The best that can be done is to hone one's capability to adjust to dynamic situations. Even with the best alternative or improvised plan there is no assurance anything will be easy. WWII offers abundant examples. As it always has, perseverance and a single-minded focus on victory carries the day.
