Huh?

I really found the remarks of Senator Ted Kennedy amazing. First of which they were some of the most intellectually stupid comments I have every heard in comparing the War on Terror, part of which is being fought in Iraq right now, to Iraq has become President Bush's Vietnam.

First of all where was now Senator Kerry in the midst of Vietnam when HIS brother President John Kennedy started our entry into Vietnam. Does he remember that we when in to their unilateral, a word the Democrat's and the left led by Senators Kennedy and Kerry (both staunch Massachusetts Northeastern Liberals) love to through around. Where was Senator Kennedy's outrage when his late brother started that war? If that war was so offensive to Senator Kennedy where was his voice then standing up to the unilateral advances and aggressions, as Senator Kennedy now calls them, of his brother. Where was he when the politicians in his brothers administration to over the command of the war from the military commander?

And secondly on the enabling or the pseudo-endorsement of the radical extreme sunni and shiite forces and the endorsement of the radical leader Muqtada al-Sadr. There endorsement so to speak in calling this men "legitimate" voice and so called leaders has lead to more attacks of US and Coalition forces and the death of this forces.

Senator's Kerry and Kennedy of basically given credibility to the same men who just a few days ago were burning and dragging or fellow citizens and Americans throughout the streets of Fallujah. The same followers of these men Kerry and Kennedy endorsed were hanging the charred bodies of these brave men from bridges in Iraq. John Kerry and Ted Kennedy have basically refilled the ammo pouches of the terrorist trying to kill coalition forces serving in Iraq. Much like a team whose back is against the wall Kerry and Kennedy have given the Sunni and Shiite Radicals and al- Sadr the timeout or halftime speech the needed to fight on. We may ask ourselves, who's side are John Kerry and Ted Kennedy really on or is the grab for power more important than the fight for freedom and the lives of American's serving in Iraq?

Is it ironic that the same war that these mean want to link to as President Bush's quagmire and attempt to turn their backs on the President and our fellow men and women serving in many capacities in Iraq, this is the same war (Vietnam) that Ted Kennedy failed to stand up against when HIS brother began and the same war that is John Kerry's claim to fame. The event that John Kerry claims is what makes him qualified to be President, is now in their minds the linkage that should remove the President from office?

Standing firm in Leadership as the President has done since 9/11 and all the way throughout the War on Terror is what we need, not someone who will change his view and flip back and forth to whatever looks to be the most political beneficial position of the day.
