Kerry Condemns Madrid Terrorist Bombing

John Kerry issued the following statement today in response to the terrorist bombing in Madrid:

“I would like to express my sincerest sympathy to the Spanish people and the families of those killed and injured in today's horrific terrorist bombing in Madrid. As a country which has also experienced tragedy at the hands of these cowardly killers, our thoughts and prayers are with you.

“In addition to words of condolence and condemnation, America should offer every assistance to Spain in dealing with the aftermath of this tragedy and in bringing those responsible to justice. We must remember that all civilized nations are joined as one in the global battle against terror. While these attacks remind us that the fight is far from over, they also strengthen our resolve to stand together for the right of free people to live in a peaceful world.”

THAT's the FIRST message....let's wait for the SECOND message. (FLIP/FLOP)

"These cowardly killers"? So Kerry knows which group carried out the terrorist attacks?

Oh gee, that really sounds like it came from the heart.

"We must remember that all civilized nations are joined as one in the global battle against terror"

Kerry is acknowledging that there is a "global battle against terror" yet is unwilling to support it. He made a huge gaffe with this statement as most democrats (and leading democrats) do not support the "global battle against terror".

“In addition to words of condolence and condemnation, America should offer every assistance to Spain in dealing with the aftermath of this tragedy and in bringing those responsible to justice.

In Rat speak, he would file a formal letter of condemnation to the UN and maybe arrest his terrorist allies. Typical lying Rat attempting to triangulate 190 dead Spaniards.

He should have spoke the words rather than issue a statement nobody will read. It only shows how weak Yaaaaawn Who Kerry is!

Pray for W and The Truth

Gee, Flipper, just the other day you were saying the terror threat was overstated.

America should offer every assistance to Spain in dealing with the aftermath of this tragedy and in bringing those responsible to justice.

The Clinton approach to dealing with terror - treat it like a law enforcement problem. We saw how well that approach worked.

Didn't Kerry state that terrorism should be dealt with using intelligence gathering and law enforcement? I think I read that somewhere, but my mind is like swiss cheese these days.
