COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Invoking the twin horrors of Pearl Harbor and Sept. 11, Vice President Dick Cheney (news - web sites) on Monday ripped Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites)'s record on national security, an area the Bush campaign portrays as the Democratic challenger's most glaring weakness.

"If you want my opinion, John Kerry's goose is cooked," Cheney told hundreds of cheering supporters in this Republican stronghold, where voters at military bases backed George W. Bush 2-to-1 in the 2000 election.

The Kerry campaign says the senator has spent the better part of his career working on behalf of the military and that he has been concerned about the consequences of giving the president a blank check in Iraq (news - web sites).

Kerry has said his combat experience during the Vietnam War shows he is not the weakling that Cheney, who received deferments to avoid military service, portrays him to be. Kerry says he will fight the terrorists "with all of the intensity with which I went at it, and I went at it, and the guys who were on my boats will tell you how we went at it. We fought."

2. "If you want my opinion, John Kerry's goose is cooked"

Who gives a damn what you think, you way past due for the "big one" heart attack shill? God, it's so transparent that the simpleton with zero business experience who was allowed to play CEO for Halliburton is now forced to carry out this dirty work. Asbestos lawsuit comes to fruition, and the rationalizations for Saddam's ouster gain momentum. My only consolation is that he must be miserable as can be with this disingenuous payback.
