UPI-Analysis: Kerry security plan is Bush rehash
Boy talk about turning something around 180 degrees W is just NOW doing what Kerry has been saying for over 6 months.

WASHINGTON, May 27 (UPI) -- Presumptive Democratic Party presidential candidate Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts made his first foray into the realm of national security policy Thursday with the unveiling of a four-point plan that appears noticeably similar to President Bush's policy, pre-emption and all.

The principal goal of his plan, Kerry said, was to protect the United States from terrorist groups and prevent them from gaining weapons of mass destruction.

Watch how they turn this around

"And our overriding mission will be to disrupt and destroy their terrorist cells," he said in prepared remarks delivered in Seattle.

The policy of pre-emption first emerged after the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

6. Moon is how you know that Rethugs don't really believe
any of that Jesus stuff they're always talking about. Here you have a man with millions of followers claiming to be the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Both his actions and his bizarre theology prove that he is not, but rethugs are more than happy to work with an anti-Christ and a false prophet as long as he has money and is willing to play ball. I find it amazing that all of these "good Christian" rethuglicans can so easily work with a man who, by Christian standards, must be considered an agent of Satan.

4. His FIRST foray? Horseshit from the Moonies.
Kerry has been calling attention to terrorism and its funding since the early 90s and even wrote a book about it in 1997, The New War.

Did anyone at UPI bother to read it? Did Bush?

5. policy of pre-emption first emerged in 1776 - just not as a reason for war
Edited on Fri May-28-04 02:00 PM by papau
But the UPI seems to forget the police pledge to protect - in addition to the goal of solving crimes.

My God, My God - do these folks really think people are this stupid - cause they are not.

Sadly, perhaps they think our media is this stupid - and here they may be correct.

:-(
