I did two searches and didn't find this. From the article:

"Democrat, Republican, there's no such thing," Kerry said. "There's just America and we are all united in hunting down and capturing or killing those who conducted that raid and we always knew that that was Osama bin Laden."

Sept. 11 = a "raid?"

Terrorism = a "nuisance?"

raid, according to merriam-webster (http://www.m-w.com)--

1 a : a hostile or predatory incursion b : a surprise attack by a small force

Sounds right to me.

Is Fudd suggesting that if we killed OBL then we could declare the war on terrorism won.

"Let me make this very clear," Bush said in Toledo, Ohio, standing next to Air Force One. "Americans will not be intimidated or influenced by an enemy of our country. I'm sure Senator Kerry agrees with this."

Had I written this statement for him, the last sentence would have read: "I'm sure any and all other candidates running for the office of CIC would agree."

THIS is a TERRORIST ATTACK

Interesting, too, that he has to say, "we always knew it was Bin Laden." Why does he have to say this, I wonder. Was there some doubt that the Dems "always knew" it was him? Yes! It was Mossad or Bush's Saudis or someone else. Hence the spin here.

" "There's just America and we are all united in hunting down and capturing or killing those who conducted that raid "

This is unbelievable.

Bush/ Cheney should get this on the air , especially NJ, ASAP.
Hopefully, with Kerry's own voice saying it.

In a Kerry Administration we will just have to get used to the nuisance of 9/11 type raids.

Apparently the Kerry camp lied when they said they would not say any more about the video.

Good thinking - perhaps the idiots on the Left will do better with pictures.

"I believe I can run a more effective war on terror than George Bush," Kerry asserted.

Yeah Senator, YOU believe it...but nobody else does!!

Voting for Kerry because of his vocabulary?

"Aides to Senate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle in South Dakota said they had identified all of the estimated 10,000 undecided voters in his state by name..."


Wow! Does anyone else see this as just a little frightening?
A means of voter intimidation, possibly?

No. Just pointing out that going nutso over his use of the word 'raid' is silly. He's technically accurate. They arrived with a small force, attacked us, and died. There have been no repeat attacks on the homeland since. That's exactly what a raid is.

I think it's worth pointing out that Mohammed went on many "raids," according to the Quran. I doubt that Kerry deliberately used a term that would be used by Muslims, or even that he picked it up by talking to Muslims about 9/11. But it's still a very lame choice of words.

those who conducted that raid...

a "raid"? I remember being part of, so called, "raids" as a kid. At summer camps, my bunk would sneak up to the girls side and do a "raid". Is that what Kerry is talking about?
