John Kerry…Stupid yet again.

"You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. And if you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."-Senator John Kerry

John "the flip flopper" Kerry is a disgrace to himself, his party, and his country. As I speak he is being lambasted by the public for his statement, and rightly so. His statement was inappropriate, unpatriotic, and simply stupid, which is par for the course when talking about Kerry.

In fact, I have a friend who is serving in Iraq right now and allow me to tell you that he is educated, very educated. He is amongst the few who understand the security of the people of this nation is at risk and told me, "It is my duty and obligation to defend the country I live in. I would much rather bring the fight to them then them bring the fight to the U.S." This friend of mine, Mike, whom I last saw in Washington D.C. before he shipped out, demonstrates ultimate patriotism. He is a Stanford undergraduate and a Harvard Law Graduate who enlisted in the Marines and insisted to start out as a grunt, when as a highly educated enlistee he would have been immediately given a commission. When I asked him why he didn't take the commission from the start he replied, "I wanted to learn to take orders before I gave them." Mike is now a captain in Iraq performing special operations with many other Marines like him...very educated. So I ask Kerry, is Mike the kind of individual he was criticizing when he stuck his foot in it on Monday?

John Kerry, like his party, has once again demonstrated that they are incapable of leading this nation, especially in a time of war! Senator John Kerry, you and the people like you should be forever grateful that there are men like Mike and many others out their protecting our country at the risk of their own lives, for if they were not you wouldn't have been allowed to make the statement you did.
