Cheney: Kerry Doesn't Have Terror Resolve
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=694&ncid=703&e=2&u=/ap/20040924/ap_on_el_pr/cheney

Vice President Dick Cheney said Friday that John Kerry would be a weak opponent for terrorists or other enemies.

The Democratic presidential nominee "has given every indication of a lack of resolve and conviction to prevail" in Iraq, Cheney said.

"America faces a choice between a strong and a steadfast president and his opponent who seems to adopt a new position every day," Cheney said.

-snip-

"John Kerry is trying to tear down and trash all the good that has been accomplished," Cheney said.

4. "All the good that has been accomplished" in Iraq?
Um, care to list some of that for us, Dick?

Then, when you're finished, you can tell us about your own, impressive record of preventing disastrous terror attacks.

Asshole.

5. Both, Bush and Cheney keep holding on to "TERROR" as their only lifeline
to the oval office.

They are the terrorists. They are terrorizing, intimidating, and seeding fear in the American people.

Their manipulation is so transparent it is pathetic. Even more pathetic are those who nevertheless buy the whole bucket full of muck Cheney and Bush throw at the American people.

7. Karry needs to start making people paranoid about their dangerous minds
and use their poor execution of Iraq to do it...that's the only way to turn this on them

8. Bush has invited terrorists to unite against America.
Even if Kerry were weak, it would still be better than Bush/Cheney. After all, any president who was presented with a PDB, like Bush was, AND knew of the hijackings, AND just sat in a classroom with children while it happened, AND did nothing, cannot call himself anything but weak. I would go so far as to say he welcomed the attacks. They were a kind of trifecta. He and Cheney, and their corporate friends relied on them, knowing the contracts they would get. Furthermore, we all know who attacked us on 9/11, and Bush STILL has not brought them to justice. He chose to do something else that was more profitable. That is the very essence of weakness. And it will be even weaker if he uses the capture of one of those involved, for political gain. Trotting Bin Laden out, will be too little, and too late. Bush is worse than weak on terrorism- he can't even find the strength to bring those who have committed acts of terrorism to justice. And furthermore, he did not want the 9/11 commission. If that isn't more than weak, nothing is. Bush is not only weak, he has something he doesn't want Americans to know.

Lucky him, Chimpy had the resolve to sit reading a children's story book while people were dying. Great resolve.

corrupt administration in the history of America.

15. Give it up, Dickhead
I keep hearing this same thing from Cheney over and over again, and it's the equivalent of saying "Kerry is a doo-doo head". There's nothing *there*, moron. Do you think people believe that you read minds or something? Try something else for chrissakes.

16. I wish Kerry would shut them up once and for all....
Like...

Mr. Cheney...it was proven that you lied about Haliburton's business with Iraq while you were directly responsible for the Company.

Furthermore, you have a conflict of interest since you are still finanically connected to a company that subverts U.S. sanctions by engaging in business with countries supporting terrorism, specifically Iran.

Mr. Bush illegally diverted resource from Afghan to Iraq. If it a wonder, in his mad rush to attack Iraq, that he now has a difficult time discerning which country is which, as evidenced in a recent speech.

Speaking of, how effective can it be for the commander in chief to be confused in which countries issues have arisin.

While they may accuse me of changing my position that is not true. Where I am different is there is marked increases of casualties and areas we no longer have control "Stay the course" is indefinsible. You don't stay the course when you have more deaths this week than last. You don't stay the course when the number attacks against become more frequent and organized. Damn it that is when you change courses. So yes, my approach will be different. We don't taunt them to "Bring it on" and march down the beaten path while they pound us.

I think the course they want to stay on is the golf course while our soldiers fight the battles. With x amount of vacation days since the conflict broke out and profits from the war they obviously are not putting our men and women first in their mind. Yes, I intend to change this course.

20. Sure, Dick, if Kerry had heard we were under attack on 9/11...
...he would have leapt into action and took command of the situation just like he had done on several occasions in Vietnam. Not like Bush, who "resolved" himself to sit there and do nothing...

22. Cheney took action like nobody's business
Edited on Fri Sep-24-04 02:51 PM by lightbulb
So he probably knows what he's talking about. From Michael Ruppert's Aug 31st Commonwealth Club address, regarding his upcoming book:

"I will name Richard Cheney as the prime suspect in the mass murders of 9/11 and will establish that, not only was he a planner in the attacks, but also that on the day of the attacks he was running a completely separate command, control and communications system which was superseding any orders being issued by the NMCC, or the white house situation room. To accomplish that end, he relied on a redundant and superior communications system maintained by the US Secret Service in or near the Presidential Emergency Operations Center – The bunker to which he and national security advisor Condoleezza Rice were reportedly “rushed” after flight 175 struck the WTC’s south tower. I will demonstrate that the Secret Service possessed radar screens which gave them, and the vice president, whose side they never left, with real-time information as good as or better than that available to the pentagon."

He is PURE EVIL!

26. The time has come for the Kerry tidalwave to push these imposters
out of the way. If Kerry wants to win he will mince no words and tell the American people - If you want your sons and daughters to be drafted in 2005 and sent to the Iraq Hell Hole to be de-capitated or God knows what else cast your vote for the devil himself on Nov. 2nd. I don't think even the devil could have done worse in 4 years than they have! Why would anyone think we are safer? There was no where near the horrible things happening in Clinton's 8 years.
