The July 23rd Detroit News is reporting via its online Detnews.com website on a recent utterance of Sen. John "Loathesome" Kerry. This time, he’s pontificating on the recent events of the Middle East.:
"If I was president, this wouldn’t have happened."."The president has been so absent on diplomacy when it comes to issues affecting the Middle East…We’re going to have a lot of ground to make up (in 2008) because of it."
The story further tells us that Loathesome John’s statements were made during a stop at a Detroit bar ironically named Honest John’s bar & grill. He also remarked that
This is about American security and Bush has failed. He has made it so much worse because of his lack of reality in going into Iraq.…We have to destroy Hezbollah,"
Now how does Sen. Kerry propose to "destroy Hezbollah?" Being the consummate liberal, he despises the military. How would a Kerry administration have dealt with these terrorists? Bore them to death with his snotty "Boston brahmin" pseudo- intellectual dialect?
.
As he makes the circuit, seemingly in the early throes of another run at the Democratic presidential nomination, we must never forget that John F. “Loathsome” Kerry addressed the US Senate Committee on Foreign Relations as a veteran in 1971:
I would like to talk, representing all those veterans, and say that several months ago in Detroit, we had an investigation at which over 150 honorably discharged and many very highly decorated veterans testified to war crimes committed in Southeast Asia, not isolated incidents but crimes committed on a day-to-day basis with the full awareness of officers at all levels of command…They told the stories at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, tape wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the country side of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war, and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country.
Our communist enemies used these statements, televised around the world, as part of the massive propaganda campaign leading up to the ultimate humiliation and departure of America’s armed forces from Vietnam. They also used these words and images to justify the torture being applied to American POWs.

"If I was president, this wouldn’t have happened." Of course not- If Kerry were President, Israel would probably have already disappeared by now, thus avoiding a messy war. By the way, did you know he served in Viet Nam?
