ROMNEY'S HATCHET JOB ON KERRY....

Romney is going to slam Kerry with some RED MEAT...it's kind of stunning...it all depends on the delivery...here are some excerpts:
"I'm proud to be from Massachusetts, where John Kerry will be the junior senator until 2008.
You see, I don't believe Senator Kerry is the leader our country needs."
Okay Mitt, so we need a leader whose spending is out of control, who only takes care of his donors, and has pushed tax cuts that are destroying the Middle class? Plus a war for WAR PROFITS sake that doesn't make us SAFER!?
"Let me say I respect his four months under enemy fire in Vietnam; we should honor that service as we do the service of all our fighting men and women."
Something a little nice - like taking a big breath of air below diving into a pool of SLIME...
"No, it's John Kerry's record in his nearly 40 years since Vietnam that's the question. Study that record; if you want someone who voted for tax hikes 98 times, then yes, send him. If you want cuts in intelligence funding, then yes, send him."
Can the DEMS get this one knocked off YET! I mean everyone was for cutting Intelligence spending after the end of the Cold War. What did Intelligence tell us anyways? The "missles" in Red Square were made of CARDBOARD - and the multi-billion dollar CIA couldn't figure that out?
So we spent more money on the WAR INDUSTRY and Star Wars? And the TAX CUT line is misleading as hell - it's a number culled together from a variety of bills!
"If you think that during the great national policy debate of the 1980's Ronald Reagan was wrong and Ted Kennedy was right, then by all means send in John Kerry. Senator Kerry now tells us he has a clear position on the war on terror.
He voted NO on Desert Storm in 1991 and YES on Desert Shield today. Then he voted NO on troop funding, just after he had voted YES.
He's campaigned against the war all year, but says he'd vote YES today. I don't want Presidential leadership that comes in 57 varieties! I want a strong President who stands his ground."
That "57 Varieties" line is good.
I think what gets me is that the Emperor is absolutely stark naked, and no one seems to notice except us.
Mitt will run against Kerry in 2008 - the scary part is that he's BUSH with a softer demeanor - like Reagan but younger and better looking.
I don't know anything about him by the way...any dirt?
