What Kerry is saying is that terrorism is like other "victimless" crimes i.e. prostitution and illegal gambling. That comment is going to bite him bad. What a moron.

from page 10:
''We need to engage more directly and more respectfully with Islam, with the state of Islam, with religious leaders, mullahs, imams, clerics, in a way that proves this is not a clash with the British and the Americans and the old forces they remember from the colonial days,'' Kerry told me during a rare break from campaigning, in Seattle at the end of August. ''And that's all about your diplomacy.''
When I suggested that effecting such changes could take many years, Kerry shook his head vehemently and waved me off.
''Yeah, it is long-term, but it can be dramatically effective in the short term. It really can be. I promise you.'' He leaned his head back and slapped his thighs. ''A new presidency with the right moves, the right language, the right outreach, the right initiatives, can dramatically alter the world's perception of us very, very quickly.
Have to wonder if these mullahs saw that picture of Kerry's daughter at Cannes

"We have to get back to the place we were, where terrorists are not the focus of our lives, but they're a nuisance. As a former law-enforcement person, I know we're never going to end prostitution. We're never going to end illegal gambling. But we're going to reduce it, organized crime, to a level where it isn't on the rise. It isn't threatening people's lives every day, and fundamentally, it's something that you continue to fight, but it's not threatening the fabric of your life.'' Gambling and prostitution might go on, but they don't massacre peoples' loved ones -- people not willingly engaged in the activities. A reduction in prostitution is fine as a policy goal as it can go on and affect only the bodies and souls of those engaged in it.
A reduction in 9/11's is not fine, only elimination is.
This is the guy who's supposed to be smarter than us?!! Puh-LEEZE!

This really belongs in breaking news for the exposure.

I don't want them to merely be a nuisance, I want them dead. Killed. Eradicated. Wiped out. Smoked. F***ed up beyond all repair. Wasted.
Get the drift?

Bush Camp Trying to Portray Kerry as Liberal LOve that headline ... should be about as hard as portraying me as a metal head! ;)
To: blogblogginaway
Forget "nuisance." I want to go all the way to either "destroyed," or "too friggin' scared to stick their vermin-infested heads up out of their ratholes for fear that the Americans will crush them like lice." Howsabout that, Senator Flip-Flop?
You, of all people, Vietnam John Kerry, should know that when you fight a war, YOU FIGHT IT TO WIN, NOT "NOT TO LOSE." Obviously, that war that's so seared, seared into your memory didn't teach you a thing!

Yeah, them bothersome terrorist have been bugging the hell out of Israel for some time now.
They were a real nuisance back on September 11, 2001 too!
(not to mention all the times they harassed our soldiers over seas!)
To: BigSkyFreeper
Kerry: 'We have to get back to the place we were, where terrorists are not the focus of our lives, but they're a nuisance'...Giving Kerry the benefit of the doubt, he's saying he is willing to accept terrorism on a nuisance level. Such as??? OKC Murrah building, WTC '93, car bombs, USS Cole?
Not acceptable, in our humble opinion. We want to be sure you understand that on Nov. 2.

To be fair... this is in fact a mis-quote of KerryI love it when soemone sticks their neck out and then never again responds to the resulting guillotine crowd.
Were you ever going to elaborate on your statement?

What a complete and total imbecilic moron! I am so glad that he continues to speak. He is his own worse enemy and Bush's best advocate for another term..
I wonder if terrorists were able to take all of his and Teresa money, for example, would he thank that was inconvenient?
Convenience was played by Clinton and got us 9/11 you freak...
