Kerry's Iraq plan

Kerry's big plan for Iraq is to get more international involvement. According to Financial Times the French and Germans have made it clear there will be no shift in their policy toward Iraq even if Kerry wins.

The appropriate American response to this should be:

1. Hand Bush a landslide in November.

2. Make it clear to France and Germany we will not forget or forgive.

After 9/11 our allies owed us their assistance in reforming the Middle East and fighting terrorism. It should never have been about how we asked or how hard we tried. We should have had to do nothing more than ask. If Europe needed American help after a crisis of this magnitude, they would only have had to ask. This is unforgivable.

Kerry is a waffling baffoon and shouldn't be in charge of a car wash, much less the entire nation. Bush tried to get more of Europe involved. He went to the UN and tried for a second resolution after Secretary of State Powell had been assured by the French that they would go along with another resolution if Saddam violated the unanimously passed 1441. When he violated it, they reneged. Untrustworthy bastards. Then when some French journalists are taken hostage in Iraq, every terrorist leader in the world goes to bat for them. Not hard to see which side of the war on terror France is on, but I digress. Kerry's great plan to get more European help is a dream, and a slogan, and nothing more. Kerry is doing everything he can to alienate the new Iraqi government (he mocked Iraqi PM Iyad Allawi when he came to America to thank us) and just can't be trusted with the war on terror at this sensitive point.
