Kerry worked hard to lose the common touch and it shows. Besides, when you run for president, misquotes count double. Kerry keeps exposing the fact that he's gotten very comfortable in the late John Heinz's shoes. All that money insulates you from the real world real fast. He thinks of himself as above the little people. That's a fact. All those moments when he spoke in anger or haste and said exactly what he thought: Get out of the way. Do you know who I am! And...Shut up and sit down! And the one about that Son of a bi..ch Secret Service agent who made him fall.

I expect Kerry will be unveiling a jobs program for terrorists, sort of a 21st century WPA. Give a terrorist a job, a career and they won't choose to be a terrorist.

The MSM tells us all the time how smart Kerry is, his command of the English language, his long, looping answers, the nuancing that shows he's evolving, growing all the time. Sigh. As for Willie Horton, you know of course, that AlGore used that first against another RAT. And to be fair, Dukakis was governor when Horton was allowed out on parole. Dukakis had liberal beliefs vis a vis prison reform, etc.. See his debate answer about what he'd do if his wife, Kitty, were raped and murdered (a la Willie Horton's victims). He sat there silent as moments passed and his presidential ambitions died on the vine. Finally, he lied. Plus the tank photo. And the kicker for us hapless MA. residents, Dukakis had more than 6000 phony Social Security cards printed up for illegal aliens so they could get benefits.

Oh my God, yes, this should be posted frequently so the MSM can't wipe out memories of the horror. Kerry's a damn fool.

If you analyze this, you get his meaning. Fair enough. But it's still an idiotic statement. Millions of Muslims living in squalor and poverty while Western Civilization, right next door, lives in another universe? Muslim mullahs and tyrants aren't about to tell the brainwashed masses that the fault lies in themselves, not in the Great Satan and Israel. To even say, well, it'd be nice to scroll back a few years, and comparing terrorism to prostitution, well, the mind boggles. Women should be furious. Well, prostitutes are just a nuisance, ha ha. Women on the streets, selling their bodies because they're basically penniless. No biggie. Just a nuisance. As for terrorism ever having been just a nuisance, ask Israel how long it's been a nuisance. Since the Munich Olympics, perhaps?

Kerry wouldn't be around to defend this country. He and the missus would be on the Flying Squirrel, heading to Tahiti.

(CNSNews.com) - Sen. John F. Kerry -- in an interview with Sunday's New York Times Magazine -- said the Sept. 11 attacks "didn't change me much at all"; and said he hopes the country will return to the days when terrorism was "just a nuisance," the same way that prostitution and illegal gambling are a nuisance.

And this man, boys and girls, will be going back to the Senate after he loses on Nov. , and go right back to missing Senate Intel. meetings keeping us safe.

WAKE UP MASSACHUSETTS, VOTE KENNEDY AND KERRY OUT OF THE SENATE!

And I guess we can't expect him to sit down and shut up for a couple years like Gore did after losing. He will sit there in his undeserved Senate seat showing Gore what it is really like to be a sore loser.

Does anyone have the quote from this article where Kerry states how 911 did NOTaffect him? If true, this would also be a damaging quote to use in an ad.

July 10, 2004 interview with Larry King on CNN

http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0407/10/lkl.00.html

KING: "What do you think, Teresa, would be the effect of another terror attack on the United States, politically?"

HEINZ KERRY: "I don't know. I think most Americans subconsciously believe something's going to happen. It's a matter of when, and it's a matter of how. KING: Strange way to live, though."

HEINZ KERRY: "Yes, but, you know, Europeans have lived that way, and other people around the world have lived that way. Americans have been very safe, at least as a nation."

In an interview with Chris Matthews on Hardball on MSNBC on July 25, 2005:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5511609/

Heinz Kerry: "On the other hand, the issue of terrorism, the issue of danger, is very close and has been throughout time to Europeans— you know the Irish, English, the French with all of the North African problems they had, the Basques in Spain— so this is not something that’s alien to them. And they don’t generally go out and blame other people; they just deal with it. "

This kind of goes along with the nuisance opinion doesn't it?

Someone on Fox from the Kerry campaign just called us, "Google monkies who search for tidbits to take out of context" I think I'll change my tagline

I think the combination of the 1st Swiftboat ad (and few since); the "Want to buy some wood?" comment; and this "nuisance" comment have utterly destroyed the Kerry campaign.

The terrorist threat is real and growing

It is real, but to say it is growing is to agree that Bush's strategy is not working. Having taken down the Taliban and Sadam, and convinced Assad that his regime is one bombing mission away from oblivion, having attracted so many into Iraq where we have been killing them off, having killed off 75% of Al Qaeda leadership, I think that the threat is shrinking, and has shrunk a lot.
