Kerry Says Freedom Will Triumph Over Terrorism
<WASHINGTON, Sept 11 (AFP) - "Freedom will win," Democratic presidential hopeful John Kerry declared in a radio address Saturday, as the United States marked the third anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks.

"On September 11 and the days that followed, we learned in the hardest way possible that the American spirit endures," Kerry said. "It is that spirit which leads us to defy the terrorists and affirm that freedom will win."

"It is that spirit which sustains the families of September 11 as they rebuild their lives. And it is that spirit which will guide us as we rebuild those towers, stronger, higher and more beautiful than ever before -- just like America."

In the deadliest terror attacks in US history, 19 Al-Qaeda terrorists flew hijacked airplanes into the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon outside Washington. A fourth plane, intended for a target in Washington, crashed in a field in Pennsylvania after passengers staged a rebellion. The attacks killed nearly 3,000 people.

"We are one America in our prayers for those who were taken from us on September 11 and for their families. And we are one America in our unbending determination to defend our country, to find and get the terrorists before they get us," the Democratic candidate said. >

1. Uh, John? Ever hear of Diebold?
We made some progress in California and Florida, but we've still got those BBV machines in Texas, too (thankfully, not in my precinct).

2. At least it got covered in the Turkish press!
Kerry's right. Cheney's wrong.
