Statement By Gen. Tommy Franks (Ret.) On Senator Kerry's Speech On Iraq

This morning on the Lee Rodgers Show they said Kerry would defend us by opening up a carafe of whoop-ass.

Americans must send a clear message to the Iraqis, terrorists, fellow Americans and the rest of the world--The terrorists will not have free reign in the ME, Iraqis will not be abandoned and John "flip-flop, gentler to the terrorists" Kerry does not represent what is best for our country! The WOT is real and probably forever--deal with it and don't let anyone think we will retreat in the hopes that we will miraculously begin to "all get along."

At the time he said that those who believe the world was safer with Saddam Hussein in power 'don't have the judgment to be president.' I agree."

BTTT! Bump this baby up!

Ka-Boom ! LOL

Kerry is sooooo very clueless that it scares me to death to know that about 43-44% of the people who'll vote in this election will actually vote for him.

I just got it!
I've wondered why Kerry commands the female vote.
What's the appeal?
After listening to Kerry again today and feeling like the AFLACK Duck listening to Yogi Berra, It just hit me that he's impossible to understand...just like my exwife!
Women must be able to relate to Kerry in "that" way.

Excuse me while I go beat my head against the wall some more.

Kerry proves my point. "No matter what color you paint a horse's butt, it is still a horse's butt!"

Senator Kerry is going down in flames. Bush by a landslide.

Kerry's gonna be hospitalized after the election.
Major surgery to remove all the rocks from his butt he picked up in that landslide. :)

Gore was able to keep his psyche hidden until after the election results, so he at least didn't appear postal until recently. Thanks to Gore's invention and a conspiracy of pajama-clad partisans, we get to watch Kerry and his enablers come unhinged in real time. And our side has somebody impressive like Tommy Franks to deliver the play by play. ;)

What percent of the female vote does Kerry command? I have a hard time believing any female would be attracted to him. I'm not. UGH.... BBL...would love to see those statistics.

Just saw that Idiot JFK say on TV that he always said that the world was better off without Sadam Hussein in power. Kerry's all over the place on positions from day to day and hour to hour.

It would be great to put a montage of his positions here on FreeRepublic, but alas it would probably dump the server because of the enormity of the info?

kerry flip flops so much, we're all bound to agree with something he's said. At the time he said that those who believe the world was safer with Saddam Hussein in power 'don't have the judgment to be president.' I agree." Me too.

Bravo, Tommy Franks!(Kerry is using his '71 file to hone his "position" on Iraq)

Now if EVERY MSM and CABLE outlet on the planet would release that statement as NEWS, which it is, I would be happy.

Unfortunately, about 50 people other than those of us here, and those affiliated with the RIGHTSIDE, will ever hear it.

Below is what I recently sent out to my ping list. Most of the recipients live in the Massachusetts area and most recipients likely know Kerry supporters who are on their E-mail lists.

The Kerry campaign and CBS has me feeling completely livid these days. Many people in this (New England) area have still not seen the Swift Boat Vet ads. I was quite surprised when a friend called me today and asked me what the fuss was about.

I know that video nbr 6 link below is valid. That being the 6th (gee no superscript?) swift boat vets ad. I assume that the other five prior ads use the same address format and so I adjusted them for the reader who may not have seen the earlier swiftie commercials. Those Veterans have good reason to despise John Kerry. The Boston Globe and other liberal media have repeatedly called the swifties liars, but so far the only proven liar in these matters is John Kerry.

Examples:

John Kerry was not in Cambodia on Christmas 1968 despite his sworn testimony.

Nixon was not President in 1968 also despite Kerry's sworn testimony when he was before Congress, and the Kerry campaign has admitted that Kerry's memory was faulty despite the fact that according to testimony the matter was seared into his memory.

The Kerry campaign has had to retract a number of facts which Kerry has been stating for more than 30 years.

John Kerry aided by CBS and others in the media have tried to bring down a sitting president while our Troops are in harms way twice. They succeeded the first time with Nixon (who I did not like) but by God they will not succeed this time if I can help it.

Kerry is aiding and comforting enemies of this Nation while Troops (including my son before and likely again soon) are being shot at. God help you to be spared the anguish of seeing through the same prism which I look through. Having a son being shot at by vile enemies while their Commander-in-Chief is simultaneously being assailed by a sitting member of Congress. It is simply not right.

Kerry is the lowest of scum, and his word means nothing! He is and has proven to be over and over again completely shameless when it comes to telling the truth.

Below are the links to the works of Viet Nam veterans who did the exact same job which Kerry claims makes him a hero. The difference is that these men served for full tours. Kerry served barely over 4 months in Viet Nam, and he is the only known veteran to have invoked the 3 purple hearts and out policy. His purple hearts are also considered by many to be spurious, in other words bogus.

Kerry despite what the liberal media says has not made his entire military record available to the public. President Bush has indeed done exactly that. Some believe that Kerry has something to hide which is in his military record which is also known as the SF 180 ( Standard Form 180.)

John Kerry has exploited his military record in order to get this close to the highest office in the land. When it comes to his entire record though, he simply will not allow it to be reviewed. It is very likely that he has a good reason for that decision.

Only a fool or a subversive would vote for this piece of shit!
