Bush's Bay of Pigs
is a Vietnam-style quagmire.

"When the Bay of Pigs went sour, John Kennedy had the courage to look America in the eye and say, `I take responsibility, it's my fault," John Kerry said at a rally today, referring to the bungled invasion of Cuba in 1961.

"John Kennedy knew how to take responsibility for the mistakes he made and Mr. pResident, it's long since time for you to start taking responsibility for the mistakes you made."

Kerry's crowd was raucous, so noisy that at one point he said, "I hope George Bush can hear that — that is the rumble of change comin' at him."

"A political candidate who jumps to conclusions without knowing the facts is not a person you want as your commander in chief," Bush told supporters.

Kerry retorted on Thursday, "Mr. pResident, I agree with you." He then recited a list of times he said Bush had been guilty of just that.
