@Patvann:

So, is he advocating for the lighter footprint after he was against it? Shock.

On CNN with Larry King on Dec. 15, 2001, a viewer called in to say the U.S. should “smoke [bin Laden] out” of the Tora Bora caves. Mr. Kerry responded: “For the moment what we are doing, I think, is having its impact and it is the best way to protect our troops and sort of minimalize the proximity, if you will. I think we have been doing this pretty effectively and we should continue to do it that way.”

Everything John Kerry touches turns to stupid, it’s just a matter of time with this report. I suppose the next past the sell date item he will use his chairmanship to go after will be the Swiftees, he can’t help himself, he’s a vindictive idiot.

I know Wordsmith has spent countless hours and has outstanding work to show for it on Tora Bora and Afghanistan, as well as the rest of the FA authors. These two sources I’m including is nothing new to many in here that have been reading this blog for a bit of time. The Flopping Aces archives are filled with the proof of their meticulus work. What a great place this is!!!

I haven’t read it, but I am willing to bet they do not include good ol’ bill clinton’s chances and wasted opportunities to get bin laden or the fact that it was under clinton that osama was warned that he was an unindicted co-conspirator by the court forced release of confidential information. This happened during the trial of the first World Trade Center bombers when those guys were tried in criminal court – osama promptly ran to Afghanistan. I do not hold our military responsible for not capturing bin laden, nor do I hold Bush responsible. At least they tried, and I am confident they WANTED to capture or kill him.

Kerry needs to stick to things he has knowledge of:

*Marrying Money
*Making Fools of the Voters in Mass.
*Slandering the Military
*Behaving like an absolute jackass when some Idiot puts a microphone in his face

And Kerry is no War Hero. His 4 months in Vietnam were short of any Heroism,
to including his “Christmas in Cambodia.”

A quick scan of it notes many omissions, and much misinformation. I would have to write another 3400 words to correct this dross.

You’re right. this ia a smearjob on Bush and the commanders/warriors on scene at the time, for political purposes and distraction. Notice no generals were invited to this little show.
