“But almost 34 years later, Kerry?s remarks on American military and intelligence operations vastly diverge from opinions expressed by the present-day Sen. John F. Kerry, D.-Mass., the leading candidate in the Democratic primary for president. ‘I?m an internationalist,\u2019 Kerry told The Crimson in 1970. ‘I?d like to see our troops dispersed through the world only at the directive of the United Nations.'”<\/line>That doesn\u2019t sound so different than Kerry today. He would turn over everything to the UN as far as he\u2019s concerned. That\u2019s consistent.<\/line>“Kerry said he wanted ‘to almost eliminate CIA activity. The CIA is fighting its own war in Laos and nobody seems to care.'” Well, he\u2019s voted to cut back the CIA. I don\u2019t think there is any inconsistency so far, do you? No, I don\u2019t, either. <\/line>“The Kerry campaign, celebrating primary victories in Virginia and Tennessee last night, declined to comment on the senator\u2019s?” Of course they\u2019re not going to comment on this, talking about all these mainstream values these Democrats are falling for. I\u2019m telling you, they don\u2019t know who they got here. They\u2019re going to find out. They don\u2019t know who they\u2019ve nominated here. “As a candidate for president, Kerry has said he supports the autonomy of the U.S. military and has never called for a scale back of CIA operations.”<\/line><\/p>\n

Well, we got to parse this. He may never have called for it, and I don\u2019t know about that, he\u2019s voted for it. We\u2019ve got the voting record. He\u2019s voted to cut back the CIA, he\u2019s voted to scale it back. And supporting the autonomy of the U.S. military? I don\u2019t think so. He wanted to turn over all this Iraq business to the United Nations. He wanted to put everything in charge. He wanted the blue helmets. <\/line>“Former Secretary of Labor, Robert B. Reich defended Kerry\u2019s 1970 statements as appropriate for their time.” But they haven\u2019t changed, Secretary Reich. Said the secretary, “In the context of the Vietnam War those comments are completely understandable.” They are still his beliefs, Secretary Reich-h-h-h-h-h-h.<\/line> <\/line> “A spokesperson for President Bush\u2019s reelection campaign said that Kerry\u2019s 1970 remarks signaled the senator\u2019s weakness on defense. Spokesperson Kevin Madden said, ‘President Bush will never cede the best interests of the national security of the American people to anybody but the president of the United States, along with the Congress.\u2019 The increasingly likely matchup between Kerry and Bush has already prompted comparisons of the senator\u2019s record?” blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah?<\/line>“Goldhaber, \u201972, whose first person profile of Kerry ran in The Crimson, February 18th of \u201970 said yesterday that he recalled the candidate as an emerging outsider whose campaign focused squarely on his opposition to the Vietnam War, ‘We lived, dreamed, and breathed Vietnam,\u2019 said Goldhaber \u201972. Still, Adam Clymer, \u201958, political director of the National Annenberg election survey at the University of Pennsylvania said that Kerry\u2019s comments would likely find their way into the Bush campaign.”<\/line><\/p>\n

Really, Adam Clymer, \u201958? What is your first clue? And Reich-h-h-h-h-h-h forecasted that GOP research will extend far beyond Capitol Hill. Really? What geniuses these guys are. “Said Reich, ‘If Kerry is the nominee, Republicans will try and search back into everything he ever said on every issue.”<\/line> <\/line>We\u2019ll do that, but we\u2019re not going to have to go any further back than the Vietnam war, the Iraq war and the war on terror. Everything he said in his voting record and the CIA, it\u2019s all there. It juxtaposes nicely; it flows nicely and geometrically from what he said In The Harvard Crimson in 1970 to today. It flows. It\u2019s just a matter of time.<\/line>END TRANSCRIPT<\/emphasize><\/strong><\/line><\/p>\n
