Kerry outlines homeland security plans

His very first move will be to offer total amnesty to all Al Qaida, followed by EST classes, where they all sit around and sing "Kum-By-Yah".

[Dilbert56]

If Kerry becomes President the money on first responders will be wasted. His nuanced, international (i.e. pussyfoot) approach means we'll need more money for hearses, morgues, and cemetaries. Then the government will have to take over "Big Insurance" because the jump in death benefits will bankrupt the commercial enterprises.

What does this zombie think about Iran and Syria signing a mutual-defense treaty? The Axis of Evil is taking this war serious.
Senator Kerry would be an absolute disaster for not only America, but the whole of western civilization.

"Kerry outlined his plans for homeland security, promising to pay more money for "first-responders" to terrorism such as police and firefighters."

They are going to need it too, because if Kerry is elected you better believe this nation will be the target of numerous mega terrorist attacks.

[hershey]

We'll need more money for burka's too.

A few weeks ago, Kerry said the terrorist threat was "exaggerated." Now he's saying Bush isn't doing enough to fight this exaggerated threat. Another flip-flop.

To quote myself from another thread on this exact point:
According to Sen Kerry - President Bush has under-reacted to an over-stated terrorist threat.

I've got some new interpreatations of "Kerry-Speak" as well:
President Bush isn't doing enough to quell the threat he's been exaggerating. ... or ...
President Bush has made up and exaggerated the terrorist threat to America just to scare you into supporting unneccesary security measures that don't go far enough to protect America.

OK, I'll stop .. my head hurts...

[Libloather]

...promising to pay more money for "first-responders" to terrorism...

Before or after the attack?

[BlueNgold]

Kerry's reference to First Responders is nothing more than typical Dem pandering to Unions .. in the case the Police and FF unions, which in my experience, do not represent the opinions of rank and file members politically.

"Kerry outlined his plans for homeland security, promising to pay more money for "first-responders" to terrorism such as police and firefighters."


Hmmm not quite sure how that actually improves the overall situation on homeland security?

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

I feel safer already

LOL.......I was thinking the same. Aren't "responders" what we need after an attack occurs???????

[truth_seeker]

"What does this zombie think about Iran and Syria signing a mutual-defense treaty?"

Sen. Kerry said we will have to "reach out" to them, too.

[Not A Snowbird]

calling for tighter port security for airlines and shipping interests

I can do that from my cubbie. Can I be President too?

[McGavin999]

Why not 10 million?

Shoot, why not a hundred million? Why don't we just deputize the entire population?

[GulfWar1Vet]

Hehe..

I guess Mr.IHOP's cousin in France got to him...Yes, don't be defensive, but be passive! SURRENDER, like us French!

And .. he's going to take back the tax cuts to pay for it .. cute! The guy is a dunce!

If you want jobs, you don't ask the people who generate the jobs to give back the money they were going to use to generate more jobs. I never even took Econ 101, and I can figure that out.

[GailA]

A lot of the Home Land Security money is tied up at the STATE level.

[Tymesup]

"Sounds like he'll let us get hit first then coordinate a great clean-up."

Reminds me of a PDD issued by Clinton. It used to be that if we saw missiles headed our way, our policy was to send a few back at the other guy. Clinton's policy was to wait for the missiles to land before launching.

So far as I know, Bush has not rescinded the policy.

[BenLurkin]

Kerry outlines his homeland security plans"

"Okay Osama. We surrender!"

[The South Texan]

IF Kerry becomes president, he may have to ask the French if we can borrow their supply of white surrender flags.

That, in a nutshell, is the Democrat platform on national security and the fight against terrorism at home and abroad.
