Kerry will speak from the same auditorium where President Bush, two years ago, laid out the case for goign to war with Iraq. What position will Kerry espouse today?
When Kerry just stated that our troops are the best in the world he was shaking his head no, he doesn't beleive it.
Sounds like he didn't listen to Clinton's advice.
I never knew before I heard Kerry that it was possible to whine and pontificate simultaneously.
As usual, Kerry's speech is all Bush all the time.
Oh, he just said his latest line that "When he didn't like what he was hearing, he even fired his army chief of staff".
Oh, I cannot stand this guy. He is accusing the President of willful miscalculation (talking about firing the Army chief of staff...which I don't remember).
"Bush promised to build a coalition, but he failed to do so, and rushed to war without a plan to win the peace"
"Bush ignored the advice of the US Military -- when he didn't like what he was hearing, he fired the Army Chief of Staff."
This disturbance was a "set-up" on the part of the Kerry team ... I'll bet money on it!
I surely hope not, but understand what you mean!
I think he's had alot of them lately.
Yeah, the Democrats have been gleefully waiting for this day for a while now.
I respectfully disagree with that. Effin would NEVER have invaded Iraq. The left always has their "last resort" lined up in advance. Weapons inspectors, France's refusal, and Kofi Annan. Don't forget Clinton did a huge military buildup around Iraq in '98 over the ejection of the inspectors. He was in a box, having threatened to invade. In flys Kofi Annan, meets with Saddam and declares that he "can do business with this man". Clinton is satisfied and pulls the troops out.
THAT is the path Kerry would have taken. And Saddam would still be in Baghdad, absent inspectors, joining al Queda and who knows how many more attacks we would've been subjected to.
There is nothing new in this speech...
Kerry:
Bush admits he miscalculated. His miscalculation was not listening to his military advisors, ..., not planning carefully ahead of time, ..., not getting a broad coalition.
$200 Billion for Iraq now can't pay for school children after school programs.
Kerry just brought up the Gulf War as a good example.
Didn't you vote against that war, Johnny?
He's exchanged "That's W, that's Wrong" for "George W. Bush's Wrong choices..."
The cost of the president's "GO IT ALONE" policy is 200 billion but we can't afford after school programs, police officers (actually harks to Clinton's plan).
The crowd is loving it. Cheers and applause. BIG cheers and applause.
Look at the Kool aid drinkers in the audience cheering..
That's good. Listening to this manure salesman with a mouthful of samples makes me want to lose mine.
I thank God I never had to serve under an officer like Kerry.
