I don't know about you guys, but I find Kerrys complete willingness to sell-out . ..to broadcast to the world our intensions, our weaknesses, rather disgusting.

Seems to me that what you see as "broadcasting intentions and weaknesses" is what I would see as discussing decisions, motives and abilities. I see that as part of democracy - I'm serious - ask yourself if Kerry wins this election, will you vilify any Republican who criticises Kerry's decisions post-election? . ..

I see what you're saying, but what I'm talking about is Kerry Saying crap like: " 9/11 Commission confirms there was no connection to 9/11 itself and Saddam Hussein, and where the reason for going to war was weapons of mass destruction, not the removal of Saddam Hussein. "

Two things there. (spins, lies. . whatever):
1. The 9/11 Commission CANNOT confirm there was no connection to 9/11 itself and Saddam Hussein . . .all it can say is 'they found no connection'

2. the rest of the sentance is a flat out lie. The reasons for going into Iraq were many. . . .Saddam broke his cease-fire agreement, by shooting at our planes for 10 years, for example.

But the bigger issue I am getting at is how quick Kerry is to throw out spin and lies about the conduct of the United States for his own selfish political gain. (just like in 1972 . . screw the US, Kerry wants some FACE TIME! )

I imagine its tough for you to apreciate . .. Think of it this way, Cam. . ..one of your politicians gets noticed by promulgating the idea that NZ will do NOTHING if any country wants to do some nuclear testing off it's shores.

. . .or what if the same politicians promulgates the idea that NZ has too many medical and agro expenses associated with kiwi's humping sheep. Sure, other countries would find it amusing.
