It takes chutzpah, as they might say in Haifa, to declare that Hezbollah and Israel wouldnt be fighting now if John Kerry were president.
Kerry, who did declare that, apparently has more chutzpah than nuance, as it turns out.
If I was president, this wouldnt have happened, said the senator from Massachusetts.
The president has been so absent on diplomacy when it comes to issues affecting the Middle East. Were going to have a lot of ground to make up (in 2008) because of it. Because of Bushs focus on Iraq, Kerry said, the president failed to address threats posed by other terrorist organizations.
He has made it so much worse because of his lack of reality in going into Iraq, said Kerry. And then, We have to destroy Hezbollah.
Its impossible, of course, to know what wed have been watching on television the past several days had Kerry been elected president. Would Hezbollah not have attacked Israel? To answer that, we have to back up a few steps and first ask whether we would have been less focused on Iraq had Kerry been elected in 2004.

...Lets pretend after all, Kerry is pretending that he could have soothed insurgents and terrorists alike and that, by now, most American troops would be home and Iraq would be enjoying the fruits of a fully functioning stable, democratic government.
Well give him that tea leaf. Having managed postwar Iraq better than the Bush administration, what about Iran? Without Irans support and provision of munitions, Hezbollah wouldnt be kidnapping Israeli soldiers and launching rockets into Israel right now. Might we also assume that under the aura of a President Kerry, the Iranians would have passed on electing the Jew-hating, Holocaust-denying Mahmoud Ahmadinejad?

HE COULD HAVE PREVENTED 9/11 -
He was sent several in-depth briefs about less-than adequate security measures AT LOGAN AIRPORT, by a "whistle-blower" within the ?FCC??.....
And Kerry did not forward the info because the person was not a CONSTITUENT!!!!
A second instance of information given him about the poor security at Logan was also mishandled by the Putz - the informant said his superior wasn't moving the information onward, and begged Kerry to bring it to a higher-up's attention...
Instead, Kerry contacted the inadequate supervisor with the complaint. Issue dropped.
Shouldn't the line be, "If I WERE President," as opposed to, "If I was President"?
I'm just sayin'...
Don't feel bad John - if I were President lap dances would be 3 for a dollar and beer would cost a nickel....
If we are going to dream we might as well dream big.
What a de-nutted panty boy.Swift boatem again in 08.
"Is Iran and Hezbollah still shooting off the nukes I gave them? Can I come out of my bunny hole now?"
I wish I knew this--I live only several minutes' walking time away from there. I've never seen the walking dead before and would have enjoyed this.
"Not this **** again!"
Kerry Foreign Policy
If you had been Mr. Kerry's grammar teacher, perhaps he would have learned about the subjunctive mood.
Kerry needs to watch this

He, he, has a PLAN don'tja know? I saw him too, a total complete moronic idiot!
I thought Alan was going to jump at him and lock lips. He was in awe of his idol, yuk!
It just bugs me.
I mean, I'm not THAT old, but when people who are supposedly older and wiser and more educated than I, run around saying 'if I was this, if I was that', it makes me want to pull my hair out.
And don't EVEN get me started on 'whom'.
= P
Maybe he's bi-polar. One side thinks he's president the other just wishes he was. That's why he flip flops all the time. He's got himself confused with his other self. Still, a moron is a moron.
The git actually said that we should deploy our troops in a buffer zone between Israel and Lebanon.
I was just ready to turn the channel since I can't stand the sight of him, but a few words out of his mouth and I was cracking up. He is the biggest dope I've ever listened to!! I watched and laughed my head off at his ridiculous, I this, and I that, I didn't support that, blah blah blah!
What a joke!! An absolute joke!! Anyone who voted for this dufus should be ashamed!
