Everyone said Amen.

[processing please hold]

I don't remember that.

As far as dreams go....shoot, I have singlehandedly killed Bin Laden and many Al Queada women with my fist...Great dreams...a bit aggressive perhaps...but good ones.

Kerry "pep" Rally

[tazannie]

why do you say that? the dems would simply call it a "youthful indiscretion".

[BillF]

You quoted Kerry's 2001 Tora Bora comments: I think we have been smart, I think the administration leadership has done it well and we are on right track.

I think that you are on the right track.

Charles Krauthammer on Inside Washington tonight (I think that they tape Friday) said that he's seen video of Kerry saying that the U.S. did exactly the right thing by using Afghan help at Tora Bora.

It will be devastating to superimpose that on Kerry's current "Bush let Osama escape by outsourcing at Tora Bora."

Krauthammer seemed to be discussing even more pointed Kerry remarks than those quoted by you. Maybe, Kerry made the more pointed remarks on the Senate floor or some other interview around the same time?

the denizens of duH have noticed this thread

LOL! The smell of fear must be overwhelming over at the DU! They will be near catatonic by the end of next week.

"Can you please link or cite the section of the UN Charter or whatever you are basing your statement on that prohibits a permanent Council member from becoming Sec. Gen"

It doesn't. un charter. It's a precedent as far as I can find. Maybe the charter has amendments?

[dglang]

Chicago Tribune might qualify as major, they own papers in several cities as well as WGN radio and TV.

[dixiechick2]

Bush never repudiated the Tora Bora story Kerry spewed forth at every debate - I kept wondering why. Maybe this forthcoming story has something to do with it.

But you are right about the lies: Kerry has told hundreds of them, so who knows which one it is about.

[olde north church]

It's going to take a lot to piece the veil of MSM hubris.

[mystery-ak]

Kerry can always claim that his comments were made before OIF, which changed his opinion on Afghanistan.

[dixiechick2]

But is it not treason to negotiate with foreign countries if you are not part of the current administration?

[traderrob6]

bingo dixiechick....right track

[Happy2BMe]

Mama T is carrying Jaques Chirac's love child really not a momma - but a MISTER.

[Josh in PA]

You're kidding yourself if you think Hillary would give Bill any power..

I really do think they despise each other. She's a strong woman, she won't hand off power to him.

[hardworking]

Perhaps a search of the archives of the Washington Post would turn up photos - there isn't a radical event they didn't "cover" back then (as well as now).

[deport]

I know the Charter doesn't but the poster specifically says it does..... thus my question to link or cite the section..... This has become FR's version of the Urban Legend, imo. If there are amendments then someone can cite them.... All I'm looking for is a prohibition against a member of the Security Council or permanent five member becoming the Sec. Gen.

Now I can see where in the past it would be assumed no member of the Permanent Five would be Sec Gen because each Five has a blocking veto.... Probably during the cold war the USSR and the US or it's allies would have vetoed each others nominee.... just a guess. Today not sure what may happen.

Thanks for your input and thoughts.

Kerry is hiding OBL in one of Soros' overseas mansions and is keeping it from the CIA?

[JonDavid]

If the China, Russia, The EU,& etc can destroy the US from within, they will do it. If Bill Clinton is their man, they will try anything to put him in postion to do it.
