My letter to the Kerry campaign today. [View All]

Hope someone reads it.

Why in the world are you guys not using BCCI to pull the rug out from under Bush' poll numbers on who would do better on the war against terror?!?!?!? Here you've got the PERFECT tool for illustrating in no uncertain terms ALL of the following:

1. Kerry has both the experience, knowledge AND will to go after terrorists on ALL fronts, not just throw soldiers at the problem and hope not too many of them get killed while giving Al Qaeda a massive recruiting kick. **note at end of letter**

2. Undermine the constant claims that Kerry blows in the political wind by hammering at the same time that he did all this at a time when there was serious political pressure NOT to go ahead with an investigation.

3. Give the lie to the Bush campaign claims that Kerry's time in the Senate was without accomplishment.

This is the perfect "Kerry was fighting terrorism while you were still in your 'young and irresponsible' (at the age of 40) faze" issue.

You guys can't not realize this, I hope you've just been saving it for clser to election time... but guess what? THAT'S NOW! The Republican convention's over. The 9/11 anniversary is over. The situation in Iraq continues to deteriorate and show Bush's "strategy" there for the failure that it is.

Play a little offense and go for the kill already!

**note: damnit. I should have included one more point. For the love of Jebus stop just letting them get away with saying Kerry voted for the war!!!!!!! Has nobody READ that bill? There were freaking conditions on the authorization to use force and Bush just ignored them!
