Kerry:”If I was president, this wouldn’t have happened,”
Now keep in mind he was at Honest John’s bar when he said it, while in town campaining for Granholm!
“The president has been so absent on diplomacy when it comes to issues affecting the Middle East,” Kerry said. “We’re going to have a lot of ground to make up (in 2008) because of it.”
“This is about American security and Bush has failed. He has made it so much worse because of his lack of reality in going into Iraq.:We have to destroy Hezbollah,” he said.
Funny, this is what he said in October of 2002 on the issue of Iraq:
I mention these not because they are a cause to go to war in and of themselves, as the President previously suggested, but because they tell a lot about the threat of the weapons of mass destruction and the nature of this man. We should not go to war because these things are in his past, but we should be prepared to go to war because of what they tell us about the future. It is the total of all of these acts that provided the foundation for the world’s determination in 1991 at the end of the gulf war that Saddam Hussein must: unconditionally accept the destruction, removal, or rendering harmless underinternational supervision of his chemical and biological weapons and ballistic missile delivery systems… [and] unconditionally agree not to acquire or develop nuclear weapons or nuclear weapon-usable material.
Here is what he had to say on Iran in 2004:
I think the United States should have offered the opportunity to provide the nuclear fuel, test them, see whether or not they were actually looking for it for peaceful purposes.
Oh, by the way, his wife’s foundation supports Hezbollah!
A Web site partially funded by Teresa Heinz Kerry offers a report glorifying Hezbollah (Hizbullah) suicide bombers as “deified in paradise and venerated on earth for fighting Israel” – and praises the terrorist group’s support network for women widowed by their husband’s “martyrdom” attacks.
“Women’s eNews is supported by our readers; reprints and licensing fees; and the Fund for the City of New York, the Teresa and H. John Heinz III fund of the Heinz Family Foundations, the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, the Barbara Lee Family Foundation, the Rockefeller Family Fund, The Helena Rubinstein Foundation, the Sister Fund, the Starry Night Fund.”
First noted yesterday by OpinionJournal.com, the Heinz Kerry-funded report reads like a recruiting brochure for suicide bombers. Here are some highlights:
“Hizbullah has built up an impenetrable support network for the women. Through the Hizbullah martyrs’ wives association some 2500 families in Lebanon receive a monthly salary, free health care and schooling for their children …
‘Anything a martyr’s wife wants, we will give it to her, basically, because her husband sacrificed himself.
Am I surprised that Granholm would have him campaign for her? Nope!

Hey, that’s just dandy! Send your husband or children out to strap bombs on and blow themselves up, and you get on the Hezbollah bennie program! What a deal!
And Kerry: what an F’ing idiot. Oh yes, not only would there be no war in Iraq, but terrorism would likely be over with now, probably because the terrorists would love us! Or maybe they would just realize they are dealing with stalwart Vietnam hero Kerry and throw down their weapons in resignation!
And, as John Edwards preached, crippled people would be rising out of their wheelchairs! Yeah, all sorts of miracles would be happening!
Why anyone pays any attention or gives any support to this pack of con artists, klowns, and frauds is almost beyond belief.

Senator Horseface is right. Something worse would have happened if John Kerry were President!

WHO CARES WHAT THIS JACKASS HAS TO SAY???????

John Kerry has got balls, if you ask me, to be hanging out in Detroit’s Cass Corridor.
I grew up in and around Detroit, and that’s probably one of the worst areas in the city. (!)

To answer your question Mike Kilo, probably 49% of the US…

Nobody should be surprised…it’s a Democratic state. Gore took it in 2000 and Kerry in 2004.

I shudder to think what would have happened if Kerry had been elected.
The U.S. sunk into a deep dark depression because of 9/11
Constant suicide attacks within the U.S. by terrorist elements alreay here.
Iran as well as N. Korea with nuclear capabilities threatening our demise.
Yes, I shudder.

maybe so, judging by what I see on the streets everyday, It dosent surprise me that 49% of the country is completely fucking clueless… judging by philadelphia ( a majority democrat city), I would put the number at more like 80%.
thank god most of the idiots cant decipher the complexity of the ballot….oh, the mystery!!!
or it could be the malt liquor passed out by democratic operatives that confuses them at the polls…who knows.
