so we are to expect that pre 9/11 when the bombings included foreign targets such as our embassies, naval ships, airliners et al, these acts were classified as nuisance activity?

You don't see Kerry's words taken out of context and misused here huh ?

If you want to hold Kerry to words taken out of context like this, think of the field day we can have doing the same to Shurb & Cheneyburton. Do you really want to make this election one based on who can distort the facts and the truth, and misinterpret meanings better ?

if you do, let's see, remeber Shrub saying these  ...

"we cannot win the war on terror"

+

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we," Bush said. "They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, AND NEITHER DO WE."


Yes, Mister President, we know.

I think it is a great comparison.

Oh, by the way, Snaf, you can edit your post by clicking on it and entering the text page, then click on the "Edit Message" box in the lower right.  That way you won't have to make a second post.

When Bush responded to Matt Lauer's question about winning the war on terrorism!

When Bush responded "You can't win it", you lefties went apeshit!

Now when Kerry refers to "Terrorism" as similar to "Prostitution or Gambling" you want to ignore it?

Hypocrisy much?

P.S.  Can't wait until the next debate!  Bush will finally put a fork in Kerry!  To those of you who think Kerry made any headway last Friday, check the polls!

I just can't believe Kerry was so dumb as to say something like this.  I don't think he means it the way Bush will use it -- but what the hell was Kerry thinking ????????

By judging Bush according to his purported strength?  

If anything, Bush perceived the trouble in what he said and was careful to spin it the next day.

Not hypocritical.

''As a former law enforcement person, I know we're never going to end prostitution. We're never going to end illegal gambling.

This is EXACTLY what Bush was saying when he said, "we can't defeat "IT", meaning, the simple act of terrorism. And Skerry jumped ALL OVER IT, calling Bush a defeatist.

Yeah, it's twisting Kerry's words...Moore-ishly.

of them per Gardner who served under Kerry for 2 months.

And Kerry has a very low opinion of middle class america now.  Don't be a fool.  Vote for anyone other than Kerry.

Which polls are you looking at ???

All the ones I see have either Kerry ahead, them tied, or Bush very narrowly ahead in one poll I think.

Which polls are you looking at ???

You act like Bush still has that knee jerk double digit Republican convention bounce, HE LOST IT when he opened his mouth in debate #1, and it's not coming back.

Which polls are you looking at ???

If you mean any of the Electoral Maps, take a closer look, many of the state races haven't been updated in a month, and some that were Bush, are now in Kerry's side of things.

Which polls are you looking at ???

"Latest polls find a dead heat on eve of final debate"

Which polls are you looking at ???

Secondly, which Lefties went ape shit ? could it not be because Bush has made the war against Terror the CORNERSTONE of Campaign and to then say he can't win it was oh um what's the word I'm looking for ? come on help me out bribite.

So hypocritical ? hardly sir.

You tried to have it that way with Kerry and his "War Hero" position, you can't have it both ways bribite, and you can't change the rules in the middle of the game, no matter how sneaky you dang republicans are
