You have only a couple months to see how poorly your candidate does. Can you hold out? Have I had my head in the sand or am I right that the Kerry Kamp has been uncharacteristically quiet this week?

30 countries? What percentage do all the other 29 countries have in troops in Iraq? Thank god we have Zimbabwe on our side. "half-baked" ; "ill-planned"; "under manned"; ???? Our military prepared these lesson plans. It was blessed by GWB and "the congress - even kerry" Now there's a hunk of spin. Kerry and Congress authorized the President to use force, but they also asked him to get UN support, which he failed to do. The authorization was needed to show support to the president in these difficult times. Then is was up to the president to act responsibly. As for the Plans, many in the military criticized the "plans". In reality there was no plan to keep the peace. We needed about twice as many troops as we sent in by the account of many military planners. Rumsfeld was the one that was pushing "Lite War". Sending in troops in unarmored vehicles and no body armor. Blaming Kerry for that when the $87 Billion bill passed...and they still don't have what they need is pure negative spin by Bush. Everyone knows that Kerry supports the troops and he supported the $87 billion...but he wanted it paid for...not put on the credit card. The Iraq war was unjustified and ill planned. Simple as that. All the while binny runs around Pakistan running the Al Qaeda show still. Bush must go. Orca
