PETERBOROUGH, N.H. (AP) Regardless of how successful the United States is in waging war against Iraq, it will take a new president to rebuild the country's damaged relationships with the rest of the world, Sen. John Kerry said Wednesday.

Kerry spoke briefly and answered questions from voters who packed into the Peterborough Town Library basement to hear the Democratic presidential hopeful's views on everything from education to the economy. But much of the focus was on the war, and Kerry's criticism of President Bush's diplomatic efforts leading up to it.

Ketchup boy needed to say something to counter the "Edwards Leads In Rat $$" story earlier today...

Ketchup Boy also needs to counter the big gains made by Howard Dean who is now running EVEN with him in the New Hampshire polls. The fact is that Ketchup Boy lost a lot of his far left support to Dean over Iraq and is now DESPERATE to regain momentum. I hate to tell you this, Ketchup Boy, but you're going nowhere with that NUTCASE wife of yours.

If Howard Dean wins the nomination, it will be a bloodbath for the Dems...

It will be a "shock and awe" election.

Kerry is an idiot. What he really means to say is, "The world will want an American President who will apologize for winning a war against terrorists".

Could'nt have said it better than that!

We are very satisfied with ours-4 more! 4 More!!!!!!!

"now that a Republican president has cleaned up the mess left by the last Democratic administration, it's sfe to elect a Demacrat again"

Great analysis. But, I hope it is becoming clear to the American people that it is never safe to elect a Demacrat to do anything.

. Kerry's too tall to bend over and kiss the rest of the world where they want to be kissed.

Running on a platform that the USA needs to kiss France's ass is no way to win an election, Ketchup Boy. Yeah, give "diplomacy time to work!" As if France would have agreed to crack down on Saddam anytime before he dies a natural death.

Kerry wants to prostrate himself before the UN and apologize for liberating Iraq. "PLEASE FORGIVE US! WE DEFIED FRANCE!"

"...saying the president should have given diplomacy more time and his failure to do so has alienated America's allies..."

Hey John, you know what? We don't care what other countries think of us. They weren't 9/11'd, we were. And frankly I believe you would be just like #42, letting the first WTC building get blown up,Oklahoma City Bombing,The U.S.S. Cole getting blown up and still you would've relied on Diplomacy after doing nothing to make this country safer.Go back to your hellish wife John, and let her slap you around some more,then take the goat out of your throat and learn to speak like a man.
