Kerry made reference to the "war on terror" when talking about the
1,000th death...

Dammit, he shouldn't be doing that.

It's just the war in Iraq, not the war on terror.

It wasn't...he was being very solemn.
He needs to cut that out. He should be deliberately separating the two, in fact.

3. Yeah, I just saw it on CNN. It was stupid IMHO. He can't look like he
is using these deaths, but why would he use the terms he did? It reenforces the Republican's position. I don't get it.

4. Maybe he said it that way because that is the way that *
sold it to the US of A? And to me, it's not a 'war', it's an invasion. :(

But I agree with you.
No matter what way it's phrased, it's horrible. :cry:
