John Kerry visited Iraq in an apparent attempt to heal the self-inflicted wound he sustained by insulting the troops' intelligence during the midterm campaign. The results weren't very helpful, according to Scott Hennan of Hot Talk, who reproduces a soldier's email:
"This is a true story.....Check out this photo from our mess hall at the US Embassy yesterday morning. Sen. Kerry found himself all alone while he was over here. He
cancelled his press conference because no one came, he worked out alone
in the gym w/o any soldiers even going up to say hi or ask for an
autograph (I was one of those who was in the gym at the same time), and
he found himself eating breakfast with only a couple of folks who are
obviously not troops.

May be more to John Kerry's... (Below threshold)1. Posted by Scott Tisthammer | December 30, 2006 7:43 PM | Score: 0 (0 votes cast)
May be more to John Kerry's remarks than people are willing to admit, or maybe the entire nation isn't too smart.
Congressmen & US Senators make $165,200 a year for 103 days work. Minimum wage is $5.15 an hour, $4,243.60 for the same 103 days. The guy making $4,000 pays the guy making $165,000 to fail miserably. $9 trillion debt, Socail Security, Medicare, Medicaid, going broke, illgeal immigration & Homeland Security a joke, & a war in Iraq we can't win!
The same minimum wage earner can't afford college, goes to war in Iraq. His family pays campaign contributor's taxes evaded through the Washington lobby. Fuel prises go up, oil companies make billions.
Illegal immigration promoted the past fifty years by the $165,000 employees of the $4,200 boss.
The same illegal immigration broken our health insurance industry along with Medicaid, Medicare, while bringing crime to the US & holding down minimum wage sending the boss to Iraq
Just how smart are the American people? They listen to the guy who got them into the war they're dying to get out of but they won't listen to common sense or their own gut feeling. Kerry's the bad guy for telling it how it is & Bush is getting US killed & breaking America while blowing smoke rings up our US as you might suspect.
If the US soldiers in Iraq are so smart why has has taken them so long to figure out Bush can't lead US to victory in Iraq? Military Times Poll shows Bush is losing all the support he had, even in the military. Bush never finished the military, never had to work a day in his life, & a 2.5 GPA at any school isn't much to write home about.
If Bush's failures are any indication of what an education is good for I'd rather be a dropout. On the other hand, if we could see just how much money the Bush Dynasty has made since Dubya started his war based on lies maybe we would see just how much $ a college degree can earn someone.

The American people could have all the $ for education they want & need, save Social Security, Medicare, & Medicaid, affordable Health Ins. & more if the got on Nextrev. & just be the boss. Be empowered & put government back to work for US!
Then Bush would accuse you of something, blow more smoke rings & the American public would raise another child to be another slave to government manipulation & corporate welfare. Terrorist can't lose a war against a nation of people who allow their employees to take advanatge of US the way our mis-representatives take US!
Freedom demands respect! That's why we had the American Revolution & that's why I started www.nextrevolution.net
