John Kerry was interviewed by Alan Colmes to discuss his new plan, health care. This coming from a man who claims he isn’t in the running for the 2008 Presidential elections. Kerry says his health care plan is only for those who wanted to join, his ploy to get people interested. Funny how he was against Bush’s Social Security reform, which also was a voluntary program.
As usual, Kerry complains about the image the United States holds in—FRANCE:
JOHN KERRY, US SENATOR: For three years or more, this administration did not engage with France, Great Britain, and Germany in the effort to keep Iran from having nuclear weapons and our absence from that had a profound impact on their attitude.
As if the French did anything themselves.

John Kerry is a strange sort of a goat.
He’s one of those guys that every other guy goofs on behind his back.
He’s even been goofed on by his friends since elementary school.
I imagine he has had that pompous know it all but says nothing voice since he was around eight or nine.
That look down your nose false baritone manner of speech the Senator employs has done well for Mr. Kerry
But considering his party’s nose for style over substance, it’s understandable.
I’m just concerned that the Senator now deems it newsworthy to espouse the theory that he is of the ability to foresee an alternate future and what it would entail if Senator John F Kerry had been elected president of the United States.
Yep, that John Kerry is a strange sort of goat.

Kerry to Bolton: “You might have had better results if this administration had followed the lead of the Clinton administration, by pursuing bilateral talks directly with the North Koreans.”
Bolton to Kerry: “Except such vaunted bilateral talks failed under the Clinton administration, since the North Koreans violated the agreed framework almost from the time it was signed.”
This is what happens to John F. Kerry when he actually defines his idea of a viable plan.

Stick to just saying you have a plan, and don’t bother blurting out what it is.
Unfortunately there’s no upside to this strategy. Either way you look the fool that you are.

Kerry has a plan, sadly we cant see what it is until and unless he gets elected POTUS in 2008.
Are Germany, France and Britain really so moribund in their foreign policy strategy that the U.S. has to lead them on a leash to get anything done?
Saddle-up, utopian europe and show us how international diplomacy works. When it falls apart, dont come running to us to bail you out.

People like Kerry care too much about Europe and not enough about the United States. Europe is not interested at all in the United States and what would benefit us. They only care about what we can do for them and insist that we do things their way. We do far too much for them and I personally am tired of their whining and constant criticism. Yes we do have to share a world with them but we do not have to share their socialistic attitudes. They need to realize that they are not our judges. We do not exist for their benefit.

How does stating a fact make one a bigot?
There was nothing inflammatory or derogatory in the observation made.
If I say we have a Hispanic population explosion in this country, does that make me a bigot too?
How about if I said San Francisco had a large Asian population? I guess that means I hate Asians.

Your “fact” is predicated on a notion that Muslims are okay, but only if they are in small numbers. You used the word “overpopulation” which clearly says ghettoization.

Overpopulation is when a population’s numbers excedes their ability to survive with a given area’s resources.
It seems to me, Patrick, that you are the one equating large population concentrations of Muslims to a ghetto.

Well, wonder what Kerry’s plan will be in 08. As for the Frogs, I will say this; everytime I’ve visited France the people in the countryside were always wonderful, it was the people in Paris who were totally obnoxious. That’s why the last time I was there two years ago we spent time enough in Paris to pick up a rental car, drop it off and wait for our plane at the airport-maybe a total of 6 hours max. That was the best trip to France!

John Kerry is simply a snobby,elitist who simply wants to live by a certain set of rules and impose his will on the hard working people of this country.Let me see,he married a super-rich widow and is worth hundreds of millions of dollars and if he’s elected President he wants to raise my taxes.Big John,if you want more money to flow into a inefficient government,send your money but let hard working people keep theirs.Don’t give me that crap about the rich don’t pay taxes,they pay their fair share.By the way,the rich guy I work for pays about 9,000 people to work for him so don’t punish him for being rich.You confiscate more from him and you risk hurting people who work for him.You are simply disconnected from reality in your Ivory tower,leave us alone.

My mom said similiar things you said. She met Marcel in the countryside and told her how much he loved America.He even played The Star Spangled Banner on his fiddle. He told my mom that next time they came to France they could stay at his house in the French Riviera,and 2 years later my mom and a friend did just that.To this day nearing 80 they still visit him when touring France.The Marcel’s of France may being a dieing breed,I hope the older generation tell the younger generations the greatness and kindness of America.

It’s not the independently wealthy that they want to tax. They want to raise the income tax. The taxes of people who have gone to school, worked hard to get a decent job, married someone like minded and now have achieved a comfortable lifestyle just to give the money to people who are too lazy to have done likewise.
People who have planned their lives for success shouldn’t have to subsidize people who have chosen not to. People who have come upon hard times through no fault of their own is a different story and deserve help but most times this is not the case.

We are not well liked because of our cowboy president. Get a clue.
When George Bush became president again in 2004 what were the headlines in europe? “how can 290 million americans be so dumb?”
You are really messed up. I don’t hate anyone. Being against death and destruction is hating?
It sounds alot like you hate liberals.
Uh Johnny…France wants Iran to have the bomb…hell their most likely helping them to get it.
Obviously so do we or else the CIA would not have given them the blueprints and Britain would not have sold them bomb making materials a few years back. Google it.

When George Bush became president again in 2004 what were the headlines in europe? “how can 290 million americans be so dumb?”
Well the headlines stated “How can 50 million Americans be so dumb?” since Bush was elected with 50+ million, not 290 million.
Also, what do I care what a bunch of snobby elitist, anti-semetic, anti-capitalist European papers think? Then again, why do you? How does that headline ACTUALLY affect your day to day life? ACTUALLY, not some lame leftist inference.

I recall in one of the 2004 presidential debates Mr. Kerry stated he would use the US military in circumstances that passed the “Global Test”. Now recall the first gulf war of 1991, it had a large group of countries involved and by almost anyone’s standard I’d say that conflict passed the “Gloabl Test” for using the US military. And Mr. Kerry voted against US involvment in the 1991 conflict. So how is anyone supposed to know what this guy ever really means? Any microphone they put in front of this guy should have a handicapped sticker on it.

Kerry to Bolton: “You might have had better results if this administration had followed the lead of the Clinton administration, by pursuing bilateral talks directly with the North Koreans.”
Bolton to Kerry: “Except such vaunted bilateral talks failed under the Clinton administration, since the North Koreans violated the agreed framework almost from the time it was signed.”
This is what happens to John F. Kerry when he actually defines his idea of a viable plan.
Word of advice for Swifty …..
Stick to just saying you have a plan, and don’t bother blurting out what it is.
Unfortunately there’s no upside to this strategy. Either way you look the fool that you are.
Negotiating for appeasement with terrorists is analogous to the following story:
———————————————-
A man was walking along a dusty path. He came upon an injured snake which asked for his help. The man replied, “I’d love to help you but you are a snake and everyone knows that a snake cannot be trusted. If I help you I fear that once you are better you will bring great harm upon me.” The snake assured him that he would not do so and would be forever grateful.The man against his better judgment decided he would help the snake. He cared for him and nourished him back to health. Each day he would bring food to the snake and they would share time together. One day the man came to the snake who was now fully recovered and upon approaching him to provide food, the snake attacked him with a deadly and death assured bite. The man looked upon the snake and asked “But why? I helped you, I nourished you, I trusted you. Why did you do this terrible thing to me?” The snake replied “But my foolish man, you knew I was a snake when you picked me up!”
————————————————-
And if we want to get bitten again, vote for the appeasers who need world approval.
Go Israel. Send them to their 72 virgins.
