Kerry Trashes Bush in Baghdad

Visiting with U.S. troops in Baghdad on Thursday, failed presidential candidate John Kerry trashed Commander-in-chief George Bush for making "horrendous judgments" and "unbelievable blunders" that have undermined the war effort.

In a series of demoralizing comments first reported by the San Francisco Chronicle, the defeated Democrat griped, "What is sad about what's happening here now is that so much of it is a process of catching up from the enormous miscalculations and wrong judgments made in the beginning."

Kerry said that because of the Bush administration's mistakes, "the job has been made enormously harder."

Among the errors cited by the disgruntled Democrat: the decision by former U.S. occupation leader Paul Bremer's to disband the Iraqi army and purge the government of former members of Hussein's Baath Party.

Both moves were have fueled the Sunni insurgency, he claimed, lamenting, "Mistakes have been made."

Then, perhaps sensing he'd gone too far, the 2008 White House hopeful cut short the Bush-bashing, saying, "Now, it's a different time and different set of judgments that have to be made. I'm here to make judgments about what moves are available to us."

Anyone hear of any reaction from the troops or their leaders? Any pictures?

This guy just doesn't have a clue, does he! (Oh yeah, but he looks and sounds presidential!!)

THE story that

DON'T WANT AMERICA TO KNOW!

John Kerry's Discharge
He won't sign Form 180
What is he hiding?

NY Sun 11/01/04
Kerry's Discharge Is Questioned by An Ex-JAG Officer

http://www.nysun.com/article/4040

"There is overwhelming evidence that the Navy gave John Kerry either a dishonorable discharge
or an undesirable discharge – which is the equivalent of a dishonorable discharge
without the felony conviction – and that, as a result of such discharge,
he was stripped of all of his famous but questionable Navy awards and medals.

And the kicker? The evidence is on his website!"

ABC, AP, CBS, CNN, FOX, MSNBC, NBC, NY Times
made sure you knew about the "Bush" documents.

This doesn't surprise me one bit. If you are already a proven pathological liar, and a traitor, you can't sink any lower.

Keep in there for the next three and a half months! That is about as long as he can take it based on past experience.
The only difference is that the only "friends" he can meet in Paris this time around are fighting for their political lives. He can always go and kiss Chirac goodbye!

It appears that the traitor has joined the terrorists. The "mistake that was made" is everytime this POS opens his yap.

Somebody needs to take him to Abu Graib(sp?) and put some panties on his head. I had hoped the little cockroach would go away. What a pecker.

Good way to boost moral, schmuck. Kerry is going to support the troops by demeaning their elected leader... What a great non-partisan chap.

Democrats once again working vigorously "to heal the divide" within the nation....

What I want to know... what did the troops think of these comments? Oh don't tell me, he didn't talk to the troops? just the press. The man is a coward. The troops would have sent his a$$ packing. Liberal press ate it up. what a blatant stark portrayal of right thinking and wrong thinking. Lurch does it again.
