Kerry to use carrier as campaign launch
Big "f*ck you" aimed at rethug chickenhawks, lying AWOL resident.
Senator John Kerry is planning to stand before the aircraft carrier USS Yorktown on Sept. 2 to publicly declare his candidacy for president.
The Yorktown, which is docked off Charleston, S.C., was selected both to gain publicity in the politically important state as well as to counter the trip war deserter pReznit Privilege took to an aircraft carrier May 1 to declare an end to major combat operations in Iraq.
Recently, Kerry has challenged the gutless liar's supposed strength on national security matters by highlighting his stature as the only current presidential candidate to have fought in a war.
"I have worked with aircraft carriers for real," Kerry has said, mocking Chimpy McCodpiece's photo-op on the USS Abraham Lincoln.
The senator will be joined at his announcement by most of the members of the two boat crews he commanded while in Vietnam, his aides said. He will be introduced by former US senator Max Cleland, a Georgia Democrat who lost both legs and an arm while fighting in the war. - - from here.
And speaking of national security....

"This is a stonewalling job of far greater importance than Watergate. This concerns the refusal of the country’s leadership to be held accountable for the failure to execute its most fundamental responsibility: to protect its citizens against foreign attack." - - read more at the NY Observer.
Security may not be safe issue for Bush in '04
The wave of violent death this week in Iraq, Israel, Gaza and Afghanistan brought to the fore a reality that incompetent, lying bungler Smarmy McGolfcart has been reluctant to discuss: Peace is not at hand.
A confident, chirpily lying Bunnypants stood in the Rose Garden less than a month ago, saying, "Conditions in most of Iraq are growing more peaceful," boasting of "dismantling the al Qaeda operation" and pronouncing "pretty good progress" toward Middle East peace and a Palestinian state within two years. More proof that he is either an incredibly ignorant nincompoop who never reads a paper, or a callous, unspeakable liar who thinks the rest of us are morons.
One presidential adviser said the suicide attacks hours apart in Iraq and Israel made Tuesday "by far the worst political day for Bush since 9/11."
They ruined a perfectly good game of golf!
Independent experts see more political trouble than advantage for Bush in Iraq. "There is a substantial potential for the occupation of Iraq to become a deep political problem for Bush," according to Ohio State University's John Mueller, an authority on public opinion and war. If things go well, people will lose interest, but if things go badly, "people are increasingly likely to see the war as a mistake, and starting and continuing wars that people come to consider mistaken does not enhance a president's reelectability." - - WaComPo.
Terrorism is becoming the principal threat facing coalition forces in Iraq and the Iraqi people, the commander of the U.S. Central Command said Thursday. "Clearly, it is emerging as the No. 1 security threat, and we are applying a lot of time, energy and resources to identify it, understand it, and deal with it," Army Gen. John Abizaid said at a Pentagon briefing.
