kerry the weight

What is the deal with the MSM attacking John Kerry for making a very true statement-- study hard or you miss the lessons of history and will "get stuck in Iraq" like Bush did-- but allowing President Bush & Co. a free ride for saying Democrats want America to lose the war against terrorists and want America to be attacked? what's more provocative, acknowledging the importance of history and "homework" before making decisions or a President stating that half of the country is unAmerican and wants terrorism to flourish? give me a break.

update: apparently Kerry's quote is being interpreted by a few (Tony Snowjob, for one) to mean that the troops aren't smart. i didn't read it that way at all. i suppose it's open for interpretation... UNLIKE the Bush quote I read which is very clear in its absurdity and offensive untruth: "However they put it, the Democrat approach in Iraq comes down to this: The terrorists win and America loses."
