Vice President Dick Cheney Wednesday told a Montana audience the United States is lucky Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., lost the 2004 presidential race.
Cheney told supporters in Flathead, Mont., that Kerry's remarks to students at Pasadena City College in California Monday constituted a "swipe at the U.S. military."
Kerry said he flubbed a joke about President Bush when he warned students to study hard and be smart -- or they "might get stuck in Iraq."
Cheney recalled Kerry last year accused U.S. soldiers of "terrorizing" children in Iraq. He said the senator is always lecturing about "nuances," adding Kerry apparently is "the one who needs to be educated."
"Aren't we lucky he lost that (the 2004) election?" Cheney quipped.
The vice president said Democrats have lost their perspective concerning the nature of the enemy we face. Cheney praised U.S. troops, stating the "all-volunteer force represents the very best of this country."

Damned lucky. Kiss the ground after landing lucky. Slam the door shut and lock out the monster lucky. Pull the trigger and click on an empty cylinder lucky ('cause that was the stakes in the 2004 election).

I cannot imagine a Gore or Kerry as Commander-in-Chief on the morning of 9/11/01.
Just the thought of that possibility gives me the willies.

Yeah, it's hard to tell with a habitual liar and a phony.
Which ever way the wind blows.

I would swear that Kerry works for Karl Rove.
