What is this crap about Kerry not mentioning Poland as an ally.
If I remember correctly Kerry was referring to when we first invaded. Poland was not in on the initial invasion and the second part of his point is that other then Britian no other country has given troops in enough numbers to matter much. Poland gave about 2,500 of mostly support personnel NOT TRIGGER PULLERS. This is a lame ass talking point for the Repugs to hang their hat on. I guess they are counting on their stupid ass supporters not to be able to put 2 and 2 together like they have been since 9/11.

1. Poland sent a chemical weapons disposal brigade well after the invasion
Needless to say, they haven't had much to do (except get shot at).

The President of Poland also remarked last month that Bush had basically lied to him to get him to join the war in Iraq.

2. Don't worry
It's pretty much common knowledge that Bush stepped on his dick with that one. In fact, Kerry may have purposely omitted Poland to see if the chump would fall for it.

And Kwasniewski's recent characterization of his having been "taken for a ride" over Iraq should've made the subject of Poland radioactive, but Dubya was too hotheaded stupid to think about that.

4. Listen: All their attacks on Kerry have been all the same damn lines
Saying he's too tan, he must be on Paris time, he's a flip flopper, he wants to raise taxes by 1 gazillion dollars his first day in office.

5. Uh huh
T'was ever thus... all of them, from their beloved prez to the common cheeto-stained basement-posting freeper parrot the Line of the Day. That's nothing new. What I'm saying is they're getting nowhere with this Poland crap.
