Kerry raps GOP, Bush's Iraq troop surge
By ANDREW MIGA, Associated Press Writer 13 minutes ago
Sen. John Kerry on Saturday blamed Republicans for squelching Senate debate on the Iraq war and warned that President Bush's plan for more troops in Iraq is a mistake.
"Another 21,000 troops sent into Iraq, with no visible end or strategy, ignores the best advice from our own generals and isn't the best way to keep faith with the courage and commitment of our soldiers," the Massachusetts Democrat said in his party's weekly radio address.
Kerry branded Bush's proposal for additional forces as "nothing more than the escalation of a misguided war."
The Pentagon is in the midst of implementing Bush's order to raise troop levels by 21,500, part of a plan to help quell sectarian violence in Baghdad.
The 2004 Democratic presidential nominee, who has said he will not run for the White House in 2008, criticized Republicans for blocking Senate debate on Iraq.
The GOP stalled a Senate resolution backed by Democrats and several Republicans that expresses dissatisfaction with Bush's call for additional troops and sets benchmarks for the Iraq government.
The measure fell 11 votes short of the 60 required to move the debate forward.
"If there was a straight up-or-down, yes-or-no vote this week on whether the United States should keep up an indefinite presence in Iraq, it would be voted down," Kerry said.
The senator called on Congress to take stronger action to end the war.

He's the gift that keeps on giving.
He, and the rest of the radical socialists, are like a case of VD....of course the socialist MSM will print anything this nut job says.

Carry's plan didn't work out so well, did it?
Thurston Kerry. What a waste of a life. A very pitiful person. If he married 10 more rich women, had five more yachts, a bigger place on Beacon Hill, five more mansions elsewhere, 100 new graphite bikes, and even a couple of large private jets, he'd still be a loser. He'll be a loser until he looks beyond his ego.
Subvert the United States, and aid the enemy.
George Washington would have hung him from a tree.
Kerry is a traitor.
Just on Saturday? Come on, the (cr)AP should know Jon Kary by now...
This a$$hole never learns. I guess he's a traitor right down to every cell in his body.
I wish he would have an accident.
What happened to all of the dem ideas for winning in Iraq?
Amen. It sure took allot of gumption to do what the swiftboat guys did. The MSM tortured them daily.

Tuhreeeeeeza, you look beautiful.
Lousy media, the Republicans said that they would allow the "Lets all just cut and run bill" to be voted on if old Harry would allow Sen. Judd`s bill, the one that backed the troops, to get a vote. MSM is telling the whole story. What a surprise!
His speeches are bad enough. Do we really need to hear him rap...?
