Kennedy: 'Iraq is George Bush's Vietnam'

GOP response: 'Outrageous'

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Massachusetts, on Monday launched a withering election-year attack on President Bush's domestic agenda and again blasted him over his handling of Iraq.

Kennedy's speech drew a stern rebuke from the Senate majority whip, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, who took to the Senate floor to denounce Kennedy's remarks as "vicious" and "outrageous."

Kennedy, the Senate's most pre-eminent liberal voice, repeated earlier assertions that Bush led the United States into the Iraq war on false pretenses and that the continuing conflict there has distracted the nation's attention away from what Kennedy sees as the real war on terrorism.

But wait, who has forgotten Chappaquiddick and the falsehoods, as law enforcement attempted to get to the bottom of the "how and why" that a young girl in her prime was left in the foot well of an upside down submerged car. Air running out and the vehicle driver somewhere else. On what basis does any individual with that background have the right to even be in a position to question let alone suggest that President Bush was untruthful.

Wonders just never cease, with some misguided voters who have trouble sorting out the difference between the truthfulness of a straightforward President from the demonstrated actions of questionable Legislature.

American Public begins to see through the Kerry fog screen

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Despite a week of negative headlines about how his administration handled the threat of terrorism before September 11, 2001, President Bush's political position against Sen. John Kerry has strengthened, according to a new CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll.

The poll results -- gathered between Friday and Sunday -- suggest that the Bush campaign's reflecting Kerry as a tax-raising liberal who flip-flops on the issues has affected the race more than recent charges that the Bush administration didn't put enough focus on the threat of terrorism before 9/11.

And why not? All the should of , could of and would of change nothing. President Bush made a great decision based on all the best information available at the time. Praise the President for demonstrating courage and leadership when the nation needed it most. Don’t come around after the fact and beat him over the head for what still may or may not be an issue. It’s a whole lot more involved than simply finding the catch of WMD’s. The American people, whether your in a union or not, are not stupid and recognize that the real issue at this point is what Kerry (Mr. Flip Flop) plans to do with your hard-earned taxpayer money.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush's re-election campaign is boosting its estimate, to more than $1 trillion, of the amount it claims taxpayers would be billed over 10 years if Democratic rival John Kerry's spending proposals became a reality.

In a three-way race with Independent candidate Ralph Nader, Kerry had 50 percent, Bush 44 percent and Nader 2 percent.

Ok people, we have much work to do and not a lot of time.
