And that "the threat of terrorism has been overrated", and that military action in Iraq is "the wrong war at the wrong time". What else? That our objectives have never been defined and that we have no exit strategy - which mantra has been taken up by Biden - and of course that he voted for the $86 million before he voted against it. And I THINK he mentioned that he's a Viet Nam veteran once....
...Remember all those VFW members turning their backs on him when he went to schlock his spiel before men who never turned traitor to their country? Another priceless moment.

The Democratic Party's presidential front-runner, Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., has pledged that if elected he will abandon the president's war on terror, begin a dialogue with terrorist regimes and apologize for three-and-one-half years of mistakes by the Bush administration.
In a sweeping foreign-policy address to the Council on Foreign Relations in December, Kerry called the U.S. war on terror as conceived and led by President Bush "the most arrogant, inept, reckless and ideological foreign policy in modern history."
Kerry's remarks were widely praised by journalists. The Associated Press headlined its report on his speech, "Kerry Vows to Repair Foreign Relations." The Knight Ridder news service noted that the new focus on foreign policy "plays to Kerry's strength." None of the major U.S. dailies found Kerry's unusually strident language at all inappropriate.
