The War on Terror is the only issue in this campaign. The economy, jobs, healthcare, trade, on and on, all hinge on success in this war – failure could unleash the unimaginable.
Bush, in his heart of hearts,
wants to fight this war. Kerry wants to move onto other things as soon as possible. Bush wants to crush the terrorists, Kerry wants to finesse them. Bush sees this war in three dimensions. It is a tactical, strategic, intelligence, political, diplomatic, law enforcement and economic struggle. We need both high-tech weapons, and low-rent snitches to win this war, whatever it takes. Kerry sees this war in two dimensions: arrest Osama, war on terror over. Were it only that simple.
During the Cold War, Kerry was a dove, supported the nuclear freeze, and opposed funding for weapons systems. He was not merely wrong, he was
monumentally wrong. Kerry courted the Sandinistas, the North Vietnamese and the Soviets, showing his misguided need to be ‘sensitive’ to the other side. His liberal voting record continues to show that he has not since reformed himself.
That he might be equally conciliatory towards the Iranians, Syrians and North Koreans should make you concerned.
