Why Did the Dems' 2004 Prez. Candidate (Kerry) Call Our Troops Terrorists?

Question

Very sad party.

Answer 1

His hatred of our military always shows.

Answer 2

This is the kind of question that poisens our country. And (typically) it comes from someone who places too much stock in talk radio.

The question refers to Kerry's comments about military operations in Iraq and how our troops have been given the unfortunate assignment of having to seek out terrorists and insurgents in residential dwellings. Specifically, he noted how house to house searches (where a group of armed soldiers arrive at someone's front door) is a tactic that "terrorizes Iraqi children."

Of course what he said is TRUE. Such a NECESSARY TACTIC IN THAT PARTICULAR BATTLE ZONE does in fact scare children.

But leave it to a vile human being like Hannity to twist the context of the statement and claim that Kerry called our troops terrorists.

I do not (no have I ever) supported Kerry as a candidate. But I find him to be a much more patriotic American than a talk show comedian like Hannity.

Answer 3

it relatively is basically too humorous. If Gore might are starting to be the splendid court docket to nominate him against the choose for of the individuals in 2001, like Bush, if Kerry might are starting to be Diebold to restoration the election for him in 2004, like Bush, the U.S. would not have been caught with this monkey, Bush, for the final seven years or so. the only skills the Democratic applicants seem to lack are skills in election rigging. right this is hoping they have found out some thing.

Answer 4

Let's see, Kerry served in the combat zone in Vietnam. Hannity never served a day in the military.

And Hannity is a patriot?

And Kerry doesn't know what he's talking about?

Kerry's quote is refenced in the above answers. The real question is, are you brave enough to read it, and amend your question? Or are you just a tool of the conservative media?

Ball's in your court.

Answer 5

I haven't heard Kerry say this. I know he thinks they are dumb. Guess who should take their money and just go back to France? I love the pictures of Kerry's last visit to Baghdad. Talk about a cold shoulder. Who's the politician that looked like a big looser sitting all my his lonesome? Our soldiers have standards.

Answer 6

5 Decenber 2005-- JOHN KERRY quote, "I don't agree with that. But I think what we need to do is recognize what we all agree on, which is, you've got to begin to set benchmarks for accomplishment; you've got to begin to transfer authority to the Iraqis, and there is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children, you know, women, breaking sort of the customs of the -- of -- of -- of -- historical customs, religious customs, whether you like it or not. Iraqis should be doing that."

Answer 7

He has a long history of bashing our troops and America. The sad part is many call him a patriot.

Answer 8

Poor John Kerry! He was born with a silver foot in his mouth. He also seems to suffer from intermittant recto-cranial inversion. He could be the poster child for fools who shoot themselves in the foot.

Answer 9

Liberals don't like the military, but most aren't stupid enough to say it in front of a microphone.

Answer 10

His hatred and venom for the men and women in uniform is blatantly obvious. Hail our modern Democtaric Party!

Answer 11

Because he hates America and himself. He has a major guilt complex; he has millions he is not willing to give up, yet there are still those who go hungry in the world.
