Good article about the * speech and Kerry's response.
This article doesn't quote a whole heck of a lot from Senator Kerry, but it is a good article and includes Santorum criticism of *.

WASHINGTON -
President Bush seems to be turning the clock back to Election Day 2004, parrying with ex-rival John Kerry and harshly questioning his critics' commitment to U.S. troops.

You can't blame him for being nostalgic for better political times, when most Americans felt he was a strong, honest leader and gave him the benefit of the doubt on Iraq.

Best part of the article:

To equate criticism of the president, whether baseless or not, with abandoning U.S. troops is brass-knuckle stuff.

So is accusing the president of defaming U.S. veterans. "I wish President Bush knew better than to dishonor America's veterans by playing the politics of fear and smear on a Veterans Day tribute ... ," said Kerry, the Massachusetts senator and former Vietnam War veteran who lost to Bush in 2004.
