Kerry on 'Meet the Press'

From boortz...some good points here.

Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Senator John Kerry was on 'Meet the Press' yesterday, and it was quite a show. sKerry set a record for the highest number of idiotic statements made inside of an hour. This guy hasn't changed a bit.

Continuing his trend of attacking the Commander in Chief during a time of war, Kerry lashed out at President Bush over the Iraq issue. He accused Bush of having a "stunningly ineffective" foreign policy and worst of all, he said that the war on terrorism wasn't primarily a military struggle. That's right...Kerry still believes that fighting terrorism is a law enforcement problem. This is almost frightening...apparently he believes that Osama Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda can be fought with lawyers and subpoenas, much the way the Clinton administration did for 8 years, and we all know where that got us. Is he not paying attention to the 9/11 Commission hearings in Washington? Time and time again we are hearing from the FBI and the CIA that they were hamstrung by legal red tape when it came to hunting down terrorists and protecting this nation. What Kerry is saying is that he wants to turn the United States back to sitting ducks, with somehow our safety and security provided by the United Nations. I don't think so.

"Our diplomacy has been about as arrogant and ineffective as anything I've ever seen," Kerry said. "I will not only personally go to the U.N., I will go to other capitals." I guess Kerry forgot that all of that was tried. The United Nations had 12 years, and could not contain Saddam Hussein.

The stakes have never been higher in a presidential election. The safety and security of the United States hangs in the balance during a global war on terror, and this is the best the Democrats can do. How pathetic.

You are not going to like this, but it comes from a "fire-eating" liberal; Joe Lieberman couldn't win the White House because he is Jewish, and would only fuel the "belief" that Jews are running the West.

I was STUNNED to hear this, coming from a lifelong Democrat... :eek:

...and they are the "party of inclusion", huh?

Lieberman would have a tough time because he is Jewish, and quite religious. This is the same reason the GOP would NEVER run anyone, but a White, Christian Male.

My impression of Lieberman is that he's a thinking man, he's honest and sincere, has a grip on reality, and is a gentleman. In other words, he's the Anti-Kerry.

I may disagree with some of his policies, but the comfort level is much higher.
