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."
What, enforce the law with Saddam's troops? That's insane. Only reason to keep the Iraqi Army together would have been to get them all concentrated so one MOAB would have done the job.
"Where have all the Americans gone?" BOOM!
He taunted the Happy Fun Ball.
The job has been made enormously harder by a treacherous and treasonous press and government, thoroughly infiltrated by the enemy, and led by the diabolical and radical John F'kin Kerry. Fortunately, he's ineffectual too.
"We are harvesting them as many as we choose. They are now committing suicide under our walls. We expecting to have many more suicide very soon."
They say every Army guy is from Georgia, every Navy guy is from New England, and every Airforce guy is from California.
This Army guy is from Texas. Georgia can kiss my butt. What a cesspool. (Stationed in Savannah and Augusta 5 1/2 years total)
I know I'm biased - but I know many people who would agree that the best Soldiers and Marines...are from the Great State of Texas.
I've known more Sailors from Michigan than any other state.
I can believe the Air Force/California thing. I've also known many from Colorado.
I am with you! REALLY! Let's do something. He shouldn't get away with this crap. In a time of war, telling our troops how bad it is, like they don't know it's tough there, they don't need to hear his crap! They need as much positive feedback as they can get. Who the hell wanted him to go there? Was "shove it, scumbag" wife there too? That would top it off! Oh no, maybe he was there with his other lady, Jane Fonda, maybe they were talking to Zarqawi. This should be protested throughout the internet and as loud as possible!
Did he pay for his plane ticket with his own money? I hope to God he did'nt use ours. Any word on if the troops booed his pinko a$$ clear out of Iraq. Any man or woman in uniform, in Baghdad, who did not take the opportunity to go off on that subhuman and boo his traitorous a$$ out of Iraq clearly isn't thinking straight. I'ts either battle fatigue, or they're starting to believe the anti-american MSM. Is Lurch over there explaining his vote on the 87 billion, and how he thought that arming the troops could wait because the rich people weren't paying their fair share of taxes?
Isn't givng aid and comfort to the enemy enough to get one booted from the Senate?
Instead of being worthy of being the POTUS (President of the United Statess), he's TUPOS (The Ultimate....use your imagination on the rest).
I just emailed this link to FoxNews, hoping they will smear this story all over their news. If anyone will they will, most of the other networks are all liberal. Let's see what happens. I told them the internet is up in arms over Kerry's visit. It is not just this site. The power of our KEYBOARDS!!!!!
Seems the Iraqi army was disbanded even before Garner got there, wasn't it. Oh, well, just more misinformation by a pinko that will go unnoticed by the MSM.
I waiting for a report without a Dem talking point. Tora Bora...
Enough of Kerry already.
Who's going to be the one to play Whack-a-wacko with this guy every time he raises his ugly head?
Yeah. In that case, we'd only have about 6 Dem senators left. And we'd lose a Republican or two.
What gets me is why would he say something discouraging to the brave guys who are right there? Where is his mind? He is so unworthy.
I know -- it wasn't meant literally, I think the observation (I didn't make it up) was saying that the Army all seem to be country boys, the Navy Yankees, and the Air Force party boy pukes from the land of Fruits & Nuts.
Georgia is a pretty state but I agree that Texas is head and shoulders ahead of them, even in natural resources.
Me too, but this a-hole should have the decency to say something positive to our boys or else just keep his mouth shut till he's back in the Senate.
But of course that's just one part of why he's the defeated candidate.
Whom was he meeting? Our guys or the Islamics?
Maybe we should give him a code yellow for the coward that he is!
