By MIKE GLOVER, Associated Press Writer MILWAUKEE -

John Kerry accused President Bush of running "an extreme radical administration" as Wisconsin Democrats decided Tuesday whether to support his front-running campaign or help his rivals stay in the race for their party's nomination for president.

"I'm tired of these politicians who show up when the bagpipes are waving and the flags are at half-staff and they talk about heroes in America," Kerry said. "And then they go back to Washington, and when the flags are at full staff again and the bagpipes have stopped playing, they forget."


Kerry also said: "This is not a conservative Republican administration, this is an extreme radical administration. And we need to replace them with common sense and with fundamental American values."


In a statement released by the campaign, Kerry criticized Bush on a different front — for not keeping his promises to men and women in the military. He pledged to improve their health care, housing, pay and equipment.


"George W. Bush and Dick Cheney came into office promising this country's veterans that 'help is on the way.' Three years later, we know that this statement couldn't be further from the truth," he said. <snip>
