[QUOTE]Originally posted by Guardian 2000: [QB] In a nutshell, Kerry's Iraq plan is to accelerate Bush's exit plan. There may be other parts, but Kerry's kept his promises high and his specifics low so there's really no way to know beyond what he says minute-to-minute. To pay for the acceleration and manage it, he'll have summits and talks and dinner parties and such wherein he will somehow manage to acquire additional support from the same countries he's made fun of and who have already said that no matter who wins the election, they aren't coming to the party. And he'll make the coerced and bribed start paying back their bribes by footing more of the bill to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. That, of course, will make sense to them, because whereas they now support a right-place right-time thinker with bribes, a wrong-place wrong-time thinker who refuses to bribe them will naturally be their cup of tea. From perusing his 263 page manifesto, it appears that the same basic theory holds true for most of his plans. There's little hard substance, but the basic idea is often to take the ideas from the Bush administration, do "more" and spend way more on it, add a little needless bureaucracy, and hope to hell that it works somehow. He's citified-Bush plus pie-in-the-sky, sold on a platter of doom and gloom. Or maybe it was cake in the sky. Yes, it's cake in the sky. I've said so for years. What? What do you mean I said pie? Well, I was simply saying it was a threat of pie, not pie itself . . . it was really cake, and has always been pie. I never said it was cake. I mean pie. I've been completely consistent that it is pie. Kerry's primary advantage is that he's not Bush. However, given the old "devil you know vs. devil you don't thing", that's also his greatest disadvantage. Why? Because whereas Bush might suck in many respects, he does so consistently . . . he's the devil we know. Kerry's the devil we can't possibly know, because he changes with the polls. He may have won the Democratic primaries by flip-flopping, but it isn't working for the nation at large. [/QB][/QUOTE]
