Kerry has been pathetic ... I have been amazed ... .......... at the incompetence of his campaign. When he said he'd have voted to give Bush "war powers" back in 2002 even had he known then that there were no weapons of mass destruction, I realized he was not going to make the fiasco in Iraq an issue. Neutralizing that issue was farcical. The decision to invade Iraq was the stupidest foreign policy decision in the history of this country. It has led to a rather predictable quagmire that could lead the US to financial ruin. Kerry could very clearly have told the people that of course he wouldn't have voted to give Bush "war powers" back in 2002 had we known then that there were no weapons of mass destruction because the vote wouldn't have even come up under those circumstances. Regardless, he only voted to give Bush the power to go to war. Bush didn't have to act unilaterally. Why can't Kerry attack the stupidity of this war? He has nothing to lose anymore. His campaign is a joke. The only way Kerry's going to get elected now is if the country goes to hell in a handbasket quickly. And it might!!! This country is so stupid and right wing oriented that it's becoming unbearable. The only evacuation strategy that makes sense now is how I get out of here. Regardless which of these clowns gets elected, it looks like protracted stupid militaristic action is the order of the day. I can't believe those insane 19 murderers of September 11 have made this a paranoid, militaristic, police state. /john
