Kerry's Plan is Naive

Here is a transcript of the Kerry Plan.

Kerry still likes the W. is for wrong idea, so Kerry's Sesame Street letter of the campaign continues.

Bush is wrong on this, wrong on that, wrong over here, wrong over there. Ok...

His international plan is as resolute as any post-JFK (the real JFK) democrat has been, but that isn't saying much.

"Instead of finishing the job in Afghanistan ... the president rushed to a new war in Iraq. That was the wrong choice."

Kerry of course voted for this measure. But he'd have never actually gone to war... really... or something.

"Instead of bringing the world together against the terrorists ... the president alienated the countries whose help we need to defeat them. That was the wrong choice."

Despite France and Germany and so forth being unwilling to send troops they are still cracking down on terrorists in their own country and they are still keeping lists of finances to block, etc. They didn't want to go to Iraq because of that wonderfully successful Oil for Food program that was permitting them to make a decent amount of money. Aren't you, Senator Kerry, upset with them for this?

"Instead of facing the urgent nuclear dangers in North Korea and Iran ... he allowed these dangers to mount on his presidential watch. That was the wrong choice."

We'll get to that one...

His solutions show how much he and his advisors understand the world, current and recent events, and the personalities involved:

"As president, I will expand our Army by 40,000 troops so that we have more soldiers to find and fight the enemy..."

But didn't you just say Bush was going to bring back the Draft? How will you do this without a draft Senator Kerry? It sounds more like you want the draft. Hmm...

Side note to speech writer: FIND and FIGHT the enemy sounds better than fight and find...

"And we will accelerate the development and deployment of new technologies to track down and bring down terrorists."

Going to bring Al Gore in to invent something cooler than the internet? Here's where the ideas get really good:

"I will secure all nuclear weapons and materials in the former Soviet Union within four years."

Good luck considering there are many undocumented nuclear weapons from the former Soviet Union. Maybe if we do a Google search...

"This week, Iran announced its intention to process enough raw uranium to create five nuclear weapons.
I will make it clear to Iran that we will lead an international effort to impose tough sanctions if they do not permanently suspend their uranium enrichment program and provide verifiable assurances that they are not developing nuclear weapons."


Tough sanctions on an international level. Where have I heard this before? Oh yes, the United Nations. This isn't tough enough Senator Kerry, this is not tough enough at all. How will you verify it either? Sounds good on paper, but...

"Yesterday, there were reports that North Korea are preparing to fire an intermediate-range ballistic missile that may be able to carry a nuclear warhead. I will work with our allies to get the six party talks with North Korea back on track — and I will talk directly with the North Koreans — to get a verifiable agreement that will eliminate their nuclear weapons program completely and irreversibly. We have to get serious about diplomacy with North Korea now. Only then will we have the support of our allies for action if diplomacy fails."

You stupid, stupid man. This is the most dangerous nation on the earth right now, and you propose the most idiotic things in the world right now.

Talking directly to the North Koreans is exactly what they want. It works like this Senator:

Kim Jong-Il is an egotistical, maniacal dictator. He wants to do things his father could not, and demanding that the United States sits down with North Korea as equals - and make no mistake this is what you'll be doing when you sit down alone with them - will permit North Korea to say how they have intimidated the most powerful nation in the world. They will say that it is only with power and defiance that America listens, and this will be a rallying time for all those North Koreans to see how powerful they have become under the wise and daring rule of Kim Jong-Il. This will rally the people - something North Korea needs desperately to do - and something we can not let them do.

Also, sitting down with them alone is to slap the face of South Korea. Currently South Korea is not my fondest of nations either, but there things that need to be remembered. Across, just north of the DMZ, North Korea has over 8000 artillery guns, and over 2700 multiple rocket launchers --all of which can hit Seoul (pop: 10+ million) since Seoul is only 37 miles away. Seoul might think they have a vested interest int hese matters and it would only be polite - as to not alienate our allies - to let them be there, at the table.

North Korea is also smart. Many of the sides of the mountains facing away from South Korea have been made to hide artillery and supply vehicles, some of these mountains are thought to be able to survive nuclear blasts, too.

When you go in to talking to North Korea alone -- hey didn't you mention how bad it is to 'go it alone'? - a very important ally (South Korea) will feel left out of things that are very important to her. This is a bad idea. Since North Korea likes to play with missiles perhaps Japan should be invited to these talks as well.

You are either too uninformed, too stupid, or too egotistical to understand this.

North Korea needs to feel isolated and without anyone to talk to on it's own terms. North Korea can never feel like it has the upper hand, nor can they feel that they can tell the US, or any other nation what to do or how to do it. I am not an expert in the field of behavioral science, but to me this is obvious when dealing with a maniac.

Senator Kerry is incapable of understanding why certain elements of politics are the way they are, and this is yet another reason we need George W. Bush for FOUR MORE YEARS.
