Jinn of Current Events

If John Kerry had had his way in the last 30 years, Eastern Europe would still be under the boot of communist dictatorships, Russia would still be Red and accumulating nuclear weapons aimed at the West, no such giant of mobile technology as Nokia would have arisen out of Finland, Saddam would be in control of Kuwait and probably most of the Middle East, Central America would be ruled by various marxist tyrannies, and the US military would be completely lacking in modern weaponry.

Hugh Hewitt: JOHN KERRY now closes his presidential campaign exactly as he opened his political life: Attacking the United States military. Thirty-three years ago, before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, he indicted the soldiers of Vietnam as war criminals, the heirs of Genghis Khan. This week he embraced an already discredited account of missing munitions to attack the reputation of the 3rd Infantry Division and the 101st Airborne. Make no mistake, that is exactly what Kerry is doing when he asserts that deadly weapons went unsecured and unreported as these two divisions rushed to liberate Baghdad. And not just these divisions, but every officer and soldier who had a hand in drawing up the war plan. ... Let us hope that his defeat in this Presidential Election will signal the end of Kerry's nefarious political career.
