Home run!
Hell, it was a grand slam.

Just watched John Kerry's speech on terrorism, and my God, was he on fire. He laid out a tough, thoughtful and comprehensive plan, and also bashed the Incompetant-in-Chief. Wow. Very detailed and clearly stated.

Joe Biden, who had introduced him, said halfway through the speech "you're on a roll, buddy!"!

Some of the stuff he hit on:
Iraq was not a terrorist haven before the invasion.

Bush outsourced the capture of Bin Laden to Afghanistan warlords.

The misadministration is living in a fantasy world of spin.

"George Bush made Iraq his highest priority. I will make Osama Bin Laden my highest priority."

The invasion of Iraq was a profound diversion from the war against Al Qaida. Bush's mismanagement has made the war harder to win.

"Well, I have news for you, president Bush: just because YOU can't do something doesn't mean it can't be done!"

Heh! On closing, Joe Biden stepped up to him and said "You did it pal! You did it!"

He certainly did!
