Once I said things - after he folded, about Kerry I regret -

[Joe for Clark]

I do -

He was a great man - I knew he would be a great president - I just had doubts he would fight it out.

This does not make him less greater - and I think he saved countless kids in the other doomed war.

You are a great man MR Kerry - brave and courageous - and many kids can count their lives on your bravery right now.

We know.

I thank you for what you did - at least back then I do.

1. He may have been an honorable man

But I don't think he had the chops to be President.

Teresa, on the other hand...

2. I don't know anymore - I do think what he said saved other kids.

That is a lot.

Thank you Mr Kerry - why didn't you fight? - we would have been with you.

We still are.

Maybe you caved - maybe -

Doesn't make you less. Just human.

3. I wouldn't feel right if I didn't say this-

Those little bastards turned you into a baby killer. You, Mr Kerry - you won a silver star - a silver star - Jesus Christ - and you saved kids.

They turned the world upside down. They will go to hell for that.

You needed to kick those people in the nuts - you don't think we knew what that took??

A silver star ????


This had to be said.

5. I agree

and he is just human.

But maybe not Presidential material.

I always thought it was odd that out of nowhere, Kerry rose to the top.

My suspicions were (and still are) that the GOP identified their most dangerous opponents and tried to sink them. Gen. Wesley Clark, a Rhodes Scholar, former head of NATO, etc., etc., got suffocated in the media. Who gets to magically rise to the top? John Kerry. Not to say he was in cahoots, but I think the GOP identified him as "beatable" and did what they could to manuever him into front-runner position, knowing they could beat him once he was there.

The American public was so pissed, though, that they were voting him in. Regardless, and combine that with a little "voter fraud", which I think took place in isolated, but key, areas, not to mention some darker scenarios, and Kerry loses.

Clark, in that position, I don't think would have caved. Kerry did. I think he was manuevered into being the front-runner, and we went with it.

I also think he was strategically wrong for not contradicting the Swift Boat Veterans.

So perhaps he was not cut out to be President after all. Doesn't mean he's a bad guy, just means he wasn't meant to be prez.

Unfortunately, that left us with Bush for ANOTHER four years.

I suspect we won't make the same mistake twice.
