"The Weakest Adminstration on Defense We Have Seen in Many, Many Years"
 Howard Dean(!) castigating the GOP for being weak on defense.
"Karl Rove says that the Republicans are going to win on the issue of defense. I submit to you that if the issue is defense, the Republicans will lose because this is the weakest Administration on defense that we've seen in many, many years. What I mean is this. For five years this President has been in the White House. For five years North Korea continues to possess nuclear weapons.
| You want to start a war in North Korea? Ask Jimmuah first if it's okay, 'k? |
For five years this Administration has been in the White House, Iran moves closer every day to producing nuclear weapons.
| Which they started on Bill Clinton's watch -- heck maybe on Reagan's watch. You want us to nuke them? |
For four years, Osama Bin Laden has been decomposing on the loose and remains so. And today we see the specter, as reported in the Jerusalem Post- of a company that is about to take over American ports, which actively continues today to boycott Israel.
 "The Democrats have a better idea. First we will conclude the negotiations with the Chinese and the North Koreans to disarm North Korea.
| Uh-huh. Care to share how? |
Secondly, under no circumstances will a Democratic Administration ever allow Iran to become a nuclear power.
| Which is what Dubya said, but good, we agree on this, and that means we can quote you when Dubya takes action. |
Three, we will kill or capture Osama bin Laden ...
| Oh, so you're going to invade Waziristan? Capture Lahore? March on Islamabad. I knew you were nuts, Howie, but I didn't think you had those kind of stones ... |
... and four, the authority and the control of the ports of the United States must be retained by American companies.
| As opposed to British companies. |
"We are not simply speaking about the United Arab Emirates -- we are also speaking about the western ports which are controlled by companies controlled by the Chinese government. Foreign governments of any kind ought not to be controlling American ports, especially when the Coast Guard already recommended that they could not guarantee the security of the ports.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeaarrrgh!"
