1. Kerry want to negioatiate with N Korea unilaterally, when he wants to build coalitions on every other subject.
Fact of the matter is Bush is right about bringing in all the other concerned nations (having a vested interest) in the negioations with N Korea.... The N Koreans are notorious at playing games during negioations.

That was amazing, when he stated earlier that we needed to work with other nations more and work as a coalition. China is the Key to North Korea, since they have the leverage because they give the most aid. Does China wants North Korea armed with nukes?

2. Kerry is right when he says the GREATEST danger is Nuclear Proliferation...mostly in loose Nuclear materials falling into the wrong hand....he made a comment about the porousness of Americas borders....and that Bush isn't doing enough to close those borders.
Reality check here...Theres virtually no way you can check all the cargo that comes into America....the logistics of doing it are astronomical..yet Bush didn't respond..but how can he and not appear like he isn't doing his job.

The problem is that Kerry made some bold statements about what he will do, but nothing about how. How will you secure all of the Russian nuclear material in 4 years? Does he simply think it's a monetary issue? And once we have this nuclear material, what will we do with it? Sheesh, we can't even put our own nuclear waste to bed, what are we going to do with Millions of pounds of enriched unranium and plutonium?

3. Does Kerry believe that Al Queda and Bin Laden are the only enemies we face in the war on terror...I have long felt that Gore would have invaded Afgan and once that was acomplished and had Al Queda on the run, Gore would have called it good...Here that same logic surfaces again...one thing we must not forget is that the people who FUND terrorism are our enemy too, and this is a spiders web that reaches into places we can only imagine...And are those people who secretly fund Terrorism people who John Kerry would call friend????

Yes, he does. You are correct. We need to cut off the funding. Kill the funding and you hurt the terrorists more than dropping a few bombs. The "Oil for Food" program provided a means to fund Al Queda. It has be shown that several of the companies were sending money to Al Queda. Not Saddam himself, but some of the "companies" doing business with Saddam.

Straight up Bush lost the debate....he was on the defensive the whole time...and never once could put together Kerrys inconsistent statements and use them against him. It was a very bad night for Bush, and might very well cost him the election.

Very true. He looked very tired. I don't know. Something. But this debate hurt Bush and helped Kerry.
