Kerry: Consistently Unfit for Command since 1971

During this campaign season ... when Kerry is apparently praying again, or for the first time perhaps ... he is praying for ignorance, amnesia, and just plain ol' stupidity. For if indeed America fully realized the scope of his egregious anti-war activities, he would be toast.

Remember: Kerry has no regrets, no apologies, only "pride" in his anti-war activities while American troops were in harm's way and our POWs were being tortured by North Vietnamese Communists.

Today's reading from "The New Soldier", the book that Kerry wrote but now is hiding from America, is an excerpt from Kerry's infamous 1971 Senate testimony:
"In our opinion, and from our experience, there is nothing in South Vietnam, nothing which could happen that realistically threatens the United States of America. And to attempt to justify the loss of one American life in Vietnam, Cambodia, or Laos by linking such loss to the preservation of freedom, which those misfits [anti-war protesters] supposedly abuse, is to us the height of criminal hypocrisy ..."
From this quote, we see that Kerry routinely has no trouble accusing America and her leaders of crimes, even in a time of war. He hasn't directly accused the Bush Administration of crimes with respect to Iraq, but he has come close -- embracing the pathetic bilge espoused by Michael Moore and repeatedly accusing Pres. Bush of "misleading" America into war.

Also, we see in the above quote that Kerry has great difficulty seeing security threats that need to be acted on by the United States. He saw no threat in Communist expansionism. He fought Pres. Reagan every step of the way in this regard, from the Berlin Wall to Nicaragua. He supported a nuclear freeze and opposed the Reagan and Bush build-up of the U.S. military. He also saw no threat to American security when Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1991. He now calls Iraq a "grand diversion". Recall that Kerry also has argued since 1972 that U.S. forces should not be deployed without U.N. authorization.

Unlike most of America, Kerry hasn't learned from Viet Nam. He is indeed unfit for command.
