Re: Sunday, October 3, 2004
"It will help us do that if we remember the lessons we were taught thirty years ago." I lived through the American Vietnam War Era, what lesson was there about flip-flopping that John Kerry incorporates? I don't recall flip-flopping as even being a subject of the Vietnam War back then. I don't believe we are using enough force to vanquish our enemies. We certainly haven't taken the fight to Iran and Syria where the real supporters of terrorism are. We fight and kill the enemy in great numbers in Iraq and we will continue to do so. We fight the enemy on some of their soil, but not on enough of their soil. Kerry will not fight the terrorists but appease them. He doesn't how to do, "hard work." Some people write on their blogs that if President Bush wins, anything that happens to America is what we deserve. Maybe so. But anything we dish back out is what the rest of the world deserves. I think we already proved that after 9/11. John Kerry is probably a very nice man, a good American as I might describe him. I disagree with his political party and his views about current American policy. From the linked article, here's an example of wimpyness that he exudes:
AS JOHN KERRY stepped down from his campaign plane at Youngstown airport in Ohio en route to a rally Sunday, an enterprising reporter shouted out an excellent question. The man just can't admit he's made a mistake by asking Americans to trust the judgment of the outside world when it comes to American security. If he had a plan that didn't rely upon what the outside world thinks, he might have broader American support. But he thinks the French and Germans know better for America than we do. Only Americans know what's best for America. Here's another excerpt from the linked article:
Then there is the now familiar assertion that Kerry will persuade U.S. allies to alleviate America's burden in Iraq. From his performance in the debate, and subsequent remarks on the campaign trail, it is clear now that Kerry's principal goal in Iraq is getting the United States out as quickly as possible. If this means making some empty promises about what other countries might be persuaded to do, then so be it. Some people write on their blogs that if John Kerry wins, any "relief" the rest of the world receives is what they deserve. Maybe so. But anything we receive in return is what we deserve. I think we already proved that before 9/11. Don
