Kerry's secret plan (Which One?)
Washington Times ^ | 8/06/04

Posted on 08/05/2004 10:35:13 PM PDT by kattracks

Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry has a plan for Iraq. Thing is, he's just not ready to tell you. Here's Mr. Kerry speaking on ABC's "This Week" on Sunday: "I know that as president there's huge leverage that will be available to me, enormous cards to play, and I'm not going to play them in public. I'm not going to play them before I'm president."
    As has been remarked by many already, Mr. Kerry is tapdancing dangerously close to the "secret plan" Republican presidentialcandidate Richard Nixon alluded to while campaigning in 1968. In brief, Mr. Nixon allowed the public to believe that he had up his sleeve a plan to win in Vietnam, though he never used the word "secret." As it turned out, Mr. Nixon had no plan -- secret or otherwise. And for all of Mr. Kerry's assurances of bringing in more foreign support, we would wager dollars to euros that he doesn't have much of a plan either. Indeed, after announcing that he knows "what we have to do in Iraq" during his acceptance speech in Boston last week, Mr. Kerry spent all of 45 words on the subject out of a 6,100-word speech.

Kerry's secret plan is to replace the pretzel vendors in New York with Croissant vendors.

Why is he keeping a plan secret that can save lives NOW! If he reveals these secret plans NOW we can save lives NOW.

If kerry's plans are real and not fiction then reveal them so we can save american lives NOW.

Reminds me of the lock-box;

Al Gore: Jim, let me here tonight issue a warning to the enemies, or potential enemeies, of the United States: you may think you know the location of the "lock-box". Maybe you do. Or maybe that's a decoy. Or a dummy "lock-box". Only the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, myself and Tipper are gonna know for sure.

John Kerry needs a whole lot more than a secret plan!

He needs a personality

He needs a record of achievement

He needs a spine

He needs to come clean about his Medal Toss

He needs to muzzle that Sea Hag that owns him

He needs a running mate that hasn't doubled as a fetus

He needs show us where he has stood, other than the fence

He needs to grow a pair

And he needs to go away

and yet as if by magic all polls show the race is tight.

and yet the media boys and girls are hedging their bets by pandering to DNC talking points.

and yet with EVERYONE saying in the primaries this leftist socialist democrat was going to have to stop pandering to the Democrat Party's commie core and move to the right, the media has amnesia to this propaganda ploy.

instead the media is SHOCKED, SHOCKED I SAY when a bunch of veterans UNDER KERRY's command call him a LIAR.

I wonder what his secret plan is going to be now that the SwiftVets are going on the offensive? LOL, Kerry is already sending out the lawyers to try and stop it.

I heard that when Dewey was running against Truman, Dewey had this great economic plan. Truman loved it and wanted to implement it .. he said, "I don't care who gets the credit .. anything to get the country moving again". However, Dewey wouldn't give Truman the plan.

Dewey probably would have won the election had he been willing to share his "plan".

Agreed. Kerry whined today about Bush waiting 7 minutes while reading to children, after the WTC attacks. But, he has a brilliant secret plan that will only come to light if he is elected?

He is lying, or holding the voters hostage.
