John Kerry recently returned from an extended tour of the Middle East and Europe. He tried some of his old material on the road, bashing the Bush administration's foreign policy and criticizing America's effort in the war in Iraq, as if November 2, 2004, had never happened.
While Kerry's Bush-bashing tour may have won him some gratifying ovations overseas, it's what he has said upon his return to the United States that should raise the eyebrows of every American.
On Martin Luther King Day, Kerry gave a speech in Massachusetts chiefly notable for its perpetuation of the silly myth that a coordinated conspiracy to disenfranchise African Americans had cost him votes, possibly even the election. But buried deep in that same story was the following utterance:

Published in 2005---and he's grown dumber by the day. Who would have thought that was possible?
why the AG hasn't filed charges against these clowns is a mystery to me...just as Gen. Al Haig said tonight...these morons have no business in Syria & Cuba!!!
It is to bad that we could lose this country so fast!!...
Can a senator be impeached? I'm serious. If the Democrats think they're going to start any impeachment proceedings against President Bush, perhaps the Republicans can start impeachment proceedings against Kerry and Nelson and any other senator or congressperson that violates the Logan Act. Use it once and it's "unprecedented", then use it again and again as necessary to make them knock it off. Congress-critters don't do foreign policy. "Period dot" like the sound bite of that fool on Laura Ingraham's show this morning. Congress-critters are supposed to represent their constituents and the executive branch does the foreign policy.
Has anyone considered that these bastards may be trying to broker a deal with our enemies, to secure a 2008 Presidential victory. This smells like one of John Kerrys schemes. You know, "If a Republican is elected President, he will nuke you into oblivion. However, if you help me out, I'll give you 8 years of free reign and good publicity....As long as you promise not to develope nuclear weapons."
I wouldn't put anything past these treasonous S.O.B.'s. Where is the outrage?!!!!!?? Is everybody sleeping?
Time to call the AG
you are right.....
yeah, everyone is sleeping!
"Republicans can start impeachment proceedings against Kerry and Nelson and any other senator or congressperson that violates the Logan Act."
BS, bring indictments.
Let them fight legal actions ala DeLay.

As a point of information to those who have not read the Logab Act here it is:
§ 953. Private correspondence with foreign governments
Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
This section shall not abridge the right of a citizen to apply, himself or his agent, to any foreign government or the agents thereof for redress of any injury which he may have sustained from such government or any of its agents or subjects.
A Senator can at least claim some constitutional relevance to foreign relations.
The House is purely a domestic branch.
