Kerry And The Media Must Face The Truth
By Gordon Bloyer (10/08/04)
Why are we in Iraq? Senator John Kerry and his accomplices in the media keep perpetuating a big lie. They keep harping on not finding weapons of mass destruction, as if that was the ONLY reason for the invasion. That is a LIE.
We would not be in Iraq today if Saddam Hussein had not invaded Kuwait. We would not be in Iraq if Hussein had not violated 17 UN resolutions.We would not be in Iraq if Hussein had not violated the cease-fire he signed after he lost the first war.We would not be in Iraq if Hussein had allowed the weapons inspectors to do their job. If we were misled, we were misled by Saddam Hussein, he acted like he had weapons. Saddam Hussein is solely responsible for the invasion of Iraq, not President Bush. We would not be in Iraq today if the UN had not vacillated and failed to hold Iraq accountable and enforced their resolutions. We would not be in Iraq today if people like John Kerry would support action instead of just talk.
John Kerry, Dan Rather, Tom Brokaw, Peter Jennings, Chris Matthews, Mark Shields, Al Hunt, Eleanor Clift and his other accomplices in the liberal media never mention that Hussein had any responsibility for the invasion. They blame America first. Kerry and the media don’t care about violating UN resolutions. I would have acted after the first violation. They don’t care about violating the cease-fire. I would have acted after their first missile fired at our aircraft. It was up to Hussein to PROVE he did not have the weapons, it was not up to us to play hide and seek forever. It now makes no difference if he had weapons or not. Why do our media take the side of the enemy? Kerry says we rushed to war. How can 17 resolutions be a rush to war? There is never a right war at the right time or the right place if it is led by a Republican president.
Chris Matthews and the rest of his ilk would never have me on their show. They can’t handle the truth.
Senator Kerry claims that he would have supported the war if we got more allies to join us in Iraq. When we had France and Germany on our side in the first Gulf War, he still voted against it. He claimed it was the WRONG time then. If we had followed Senator Kerry then, Iraq would still be in control of Kuwait. Kerry now says we should not have invaded Iraq. If he had his way, Hussein would still be the dictator of Iraq. Can we trust John Kerry? Can we trust our liberal media to support the defense of America?
The truth is, we should have invaded Iraq even if we were not attacked on 9/11. They violated the resolutions and the cease-fire. Case closed. Hussein was paying terrorists families $25,000 if they died in a suicide attack. He harbored terrorists. Iraq had terrorist training camps.
We are now engaged in a war against terrorists in Iraq. The terrorists are coming to us, to be killed or commit suicide. We have a chance to make Iraq a democracy in the middle of the hotbed of terrorism. John Kerry and our dysfunctional media can’t separate the Iraq War from our war against the terrorists. They pretend that there were no reasons to invade Iraq. They do not understand the difference and they can’t be counted on to defend America. They continue to make excuses for Saddam Hussein. They are again trying to make our soldiers the bad guys, just like they did in Vietnam.
If we allow John Kerry and the liberal media to undermine our efforts to fight this war we will pay a very high price in the future. We will have to live under constant attack, like Israel. I don’t want to see the day when every time I go out to a restaurant, I have to look around for suicide bombers. When you send your children to school do you want to have to worry if the school will be bombed?
This war has NOTHING to do with finding weapons in Iraq. This war has nothing to do with a connection to 9/11. It is time for Kerry and the liberal media to face the truth. Saddam Hussein violated 17 resolutions and a cease-fire agreement and he WAS a supporter of terrorists, enough said. Everything else is irrelevant.
