The real enemy

Comments (6) | TrackBacks (0)

In a satellite interview with Milwaukee TV station WISN, Kerry said, "I regret that when George Bush had the opportunity in Afghanistan at Tora Bora, he didn't choose to use American forces to hunt down and kill Osama bin Laden."

"He outsourced the job to Afghan warlords. I would never have done that. I think it was an enormous mistake, and we're paying the price for that today," he said.

This is a perfect example of why John Kerry would be terrible as our commander-in-chief. His first response to Osama and his veiled threats was not condensing OBL and his attempt to influence the US elections, but instead only sees a political advantage. He should have been outraged at this attempt to influence our elections instead of taking more pot shots at our generals. When it comes down to it President Bush is no FDR looking studiously over maps to determine allowable bombing sites. The President has made the tough decisions and then turned over the planning to the military instead of being a micro-manager. So this whole week of criticism starting from the the missing ammunition to now has all been about blasting our military with his own Monday night quarterbacking. To him Bush is the enemy and OBL is only a nuisance. If he had the same fervor to conduct the war on terror as he has to become president then maybe he would be an acceptable commander-in-chief.

I am especially tired of his charge of outsourcing since it is both misleading and his own plan is to outsource everything to the UN.

To him Bush is the enemy and OBL is only a nuisance.

That sentence pretty much sums up the entire position of the left.

Something not reported very often is the fact that Senator Kerry praised the our strategy and efforts in Tora Bora when they were happening. Thus, his claim that he would never have done that is a flat out lie.

His comments on outsourcing are a shoddy attempt to tie domestic issues to the war and corrupt both.


If Kerry wins, it is evidence that God has cursed us and quite frankly, we deserve every bit of it.

Guys, calm down. The President isn't in charge of =everything=. Kerry would likely have a Congress very opposed to him -- remember Bill Clinton and 1994? Congress forced him into capitulating on some very important things.

Unfortunately, abortion (and other life issues) weren't one of those things Clinton folded on. And I hate to see that all of the American "public Catholics" (aka politicians like Giuliani, Schwarzeneggar, Kerry, and many other Dems) are pro-choice. That's a harsh penance indeed. And yes, we do deserve it (though those unborn do not). It would be a call to redouble efforts.

The simple fact is neither Bush or Kerry is a good man of God. Bush is a bumbling idiot. Kerry will be a harder worker. If Bin Laden was pro-life and he was running for president vs. Kerry would you vote for him? I'm every bit pro-life as I should be, but Bush NEEDS to go.

Yes the Greek Captcha is a joke

The Curt Jester

A former atheist who after spending forty years in the wilderness finds himself with both astonishment and joy a member of the Catholic Church. This blog presents my hopefully humorous and sometimes serious take on things religious, political, and whatever else crosses my mind.

Blessed Miguel Pro, S.J.

Known as "God's Jester" was a martyr for the faith and a man of wisdom, fun, tricks, poetry, song, and dance. Thus seemed an appropriate Patron Saint of this blog.
