I saw John Kerry on TV yesterday, claiming that Iraq was the most disasterous foreign policy miscalculation in the history of the country. The guy has no credibility at all. You'd think that since he was in Vietnam, he'd realize that he could not get away with that statement.

He has lied so much that even he believes them.

And no decent knowledge of history either.

Ironic that he played such an important role in voting for what he considers the most disasterous foriegn policy miscalculation in history. Doesn't say much about his own belief in his ability to make important "calculaitons."

Scum like Kerry will go down in history as exactly what they are -- treasonous filth who played their politics on the backs of this nations' heros.

As an informed non-American I don't think Vietnam was a miscalculation either. The lefties backstabbed Nixon's honourable peace and hung the Vietnamese out to dry. The left knew what they were doing - no miscalculation there.

The poorest foreign policy decision in recent years IMO was leaving the Cubans in the lurch at the Bay of Pigs. 50 to 1 odds and Castro still took days to beat them down. It would have taken very little to have reversed the disaster. But don't you guys beat yourselves up about Vietnam: you did what had to be done.

You mean John Francois Kerry was in Viet Nam??? (sorry)......he's a nobody, no credibility whatsoever. I respect Bugs Bunny more than him.

This is precisely why I am not worried about the 2006 elections. Kerry and the dems just can't help themselves. They have invested politically in U.S. failure in Iraq and don't even try to hide it anymore. So, rather than doing the smart thing and moving forward (to position himself for 2008) Kerry is trying to re-validate his 2004 loss. In addition, other dems are now planning to vote against defense department appropriations bills. Even if the American public was anti-war, which they are not, they just don't approve of the way it is being handled and want results, but even if they were anti-war, would the American public really want our troops to have their support cut off? I think NOT.

The dems are just on the wrong side of all the issues. They can scream "culture of corruption" all they want, but at the end of the day, the voters vote issues.
