As I was reading VDH's blurb about the debate, I had a thought. Kerry keeps repeating "I have a plan..."; I think he should switch over and go with "I have a dream...". Think about it: it's catchy, it's chock-full of symbolism, and it much better fits his ridiculous theories and vague projections about how the world would work under his presidency.
Posted by Sarah at October 10, 2004 08:38 AMI have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "I'm an internationalist. I'd like to see our troops dispersed through the world only at the directive of the United Nations." I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Paris the sons of former neo-cons and the sons of former Iranian nuclear bomb makers will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood filled with allies from all different nations, and by all different nations I mean France and Germany. I have a dream that one day even the United States, a police state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice, not unlike North Vietnam was when I met with the Vietcong in 1971. I have a dream that my two children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the orangey color of their skin but by the content of their briefcases, which is where they keep their lucky hats. I have a dream today.

Posted by: Toni at October 10, 2004 02:47 PMI am very concerned that you are very right. It almost seems as though Kerry was being prepped for running for president by some foreign power. I would not doubt that he was fully and completely indoctrinated by the communist party during his college years and only got worse when he met twice with the leaders of Communist North Vietnam. If elected I am very much certain that he would try to make America in the image of socialists countries like France very quickly and eventually towards full communism there after.
After reading all about Kerry from his college years to now, he has consistantly been anti defense and anti intelligence, the two things that during the cold war, kept us safe.
Posted by: Allen Stoner at October 10, 2004 06:43 PMI'm on a fly fishing forum. On the off-topic part of the board I asked the many leftists there what John Kerry's plan was for Iraq. I specified that I didn't want to know his goals, we all know that, but rather what his plan was to achieve those goals. I got a link to Kerry's page, nothing there but goals, I got "diplomacy" but that's a goal, not a plan.
Not a one of them could say what Kerry's plan actually was.
Oh, and you'll be pleased to know that you're some kind of neo-con propagandist pajama blogger. lol

Posted by: Kalroy at October 10, 2004 07:32 PMIn almost every episode of the BBC series "Blackadder", Tony Robinson's character "Baldrick" has "a cunning plan" for dealing with the current situation. And, when he utters the catch-phrase, you immediately know that it is going to border on the insane.
The Junior Senator dresses better than Baldrick but that gives me no cause to expect a better quality of plan.
Hello folks nice blog youre running
