Ah, yes. When in doubt blame KR, the evil genius. Please explain why a bill that was acceptable to 30 or so of the Senators that initially voted for the "Kerry Bill" is somehow KR's fault.

If the President is going to enlist ostensibly sovereign foreign leaders as tools of his campaign, his challenger had better have the cojones to call bullshit, or he shouldn't be leading the country. You seem to think that Kerry should have unilaterally disarmed. In any event, the Iraqis already know that the guy is a puppet. They don't need him to come over here to figure that out.

What is the point of calling his "puppet" view out, other than to undercut Bush and get elected? What purposes does it serve the war in Iraq/Terror or other US interests? I can only see that it serves JFK's interests, which he has shown time and time again, trump the interests of this country.*
* Do not think this goes to all DEMs, just a portion of them that are more concerned with getting elected than doing the right thing.
