"This past summer, Kerry pushed a resolution that would have required the president to withdraw nearly all combat troops from Iraq by July 2007.

That position drew Kerry a rebuke today from Bush, who held it up as an example of a "cut and run" policy championed by Democrats.

"I would cite my opponent in the 2004 campaign when he said there needs to be a date certain from which to withdraw from Iraq," Bush said in a White House news conference.

"I characterize that as `cut and run' because I believe it is `cut and run,' " Bush continued. "They may not use `cut and run,' but they say `date certain' is when to get out, before the job is done. That is `cut and run.' "

Kerry reacted angrily to the description of his plan. He has advocated setting a deadline for the withdrawal of most troops as a way to force Iraqis to settle their political differences and take responsibility for the security of their nation.

"He wraps my strategy in slogans because he's afraid to take responsibility'' for a failed war policy, Kerry said in a statement."..........

Not his multitude of votes against missile defense? Why, just today the democRATs were trying to convince us they were always supportive of Star Wars. Kerry is the stuff pond scum scrapes off their shoes.

Yes, but did he bring Christmas presents to the Cambodians when he was there on Christmas day way back in the day?

So killing all of those people in Vietnam, which he used to complain about so much, is not his worst regret?

What a scumbag.

And how low the Democrats sank, to have this....person as their selected leader.

This fool is grasping for the far-left wing DemocRAT votes to try and win the DemocRAT nod again - Hillary on the other hand, already has them. So she doesn't have to alienate the sensible folks, like this fool has.

Good luck with your campaign Mr. Kerry... Nobody will vote for any fool, who's foolish enough to say that Iraq was a mistake.

Don't think so Mr. Kerry? Just ask Hillary, you dumb*ss.

Interestingly enough though, I have something in common with John Kerry - we both have the same chance of being President of the United States and I'm Canadian, so think how good his chances are.

I rank my level of caring about anything Senator Kerry has to say at the same level as I rank the words of wisdom from Paris Hilton. About a 1 of 10. 1 simply because I am a nice person.

Has this Clymer ever done, or said, anything positive in his cake-eating life?

I've got to hand it to the Japanese. At least their failures in olden times would fall on their own sword.

Kerry just falls on his face.

Kerry is starting to remind me of something written about that flaming bore Harvey Firestein: "How many times can one man come out of the same closet?"

Kerry makes me wonder "How many times can one man's head go up his own butt?"

Yeah, we KNOW it was your greatest regret Johnny, OK, we know, we know! But the DUmmies ain't buying it, so you're setting yourself up for another doomed run in 2008. I don't know a single person here in Boston who hopes you'll run again.

"There's nothing -- nothing -- in my life in public service I regret more, nothing even close," Kerry,

You mean the not making your service record public doesn't rank real high? Enjoy another losing presidential run.
