"U.S. Sen. John Kerry, D- Mass., who was in town Sunday to help Gov. Jennifer Granholm campaign for her re-election bid, took time to take a jab at the Bush administration for its lack of leadership in the Israeli-Lebanon conflict.
"If I was president, this wouldn't have happened," said Kerry during a noon stop at Honest John's bar and grill in Detroit's Cass Corridor.
Bush has been so concentrated on the war in Iraq that other Middle East tension arose as a result, he said.
"The president has been so absent on diplomacy when it comes to issues affecting the Middle East," Kerry said. "We're going to have a lot of ground to make up (in 2008) because of it."
In 2004 Senator Kerry (who served in Vietnam and got shoot in the butt), crticized the President for not getting the UN and the rest of the do-nothings of the world to help us with Iraq.
Now when Bush seeks diplomacy, he's "wrong, wrong, wrong" on that too and like the rest of the left he wants him to get "Cowboy" on Israel.
Kerry doesn't get it, and neither does the rest of the left. The "anything you can do I can do better" armchair politics they have been exhibiting over the last three years isn't going to resonate with the voters come fall or in 2008. Watch and see.
