In the first Presidential debate, John Kerry said this:
With respect to Iran, the British, French, and Germans were the ones who initiated an effort without the United States, regrettably, to begin to try to move to curb the nuclear possibilities in Iran. I believe we could have done better. I think the United States should have offered the opportunity to provide the nuclear fuel, test them, see whether or not they were actually looking for it for peaceful purposes. If they weren't willing to work a deal, then we could have put sanctions together.
I was so stunned that a serious Presidential candidate could publicly show such a lack of perception of foreign policy, I nearly fell out of my chair. He seriously suggested that we just give nuclear materials to Iran. Yet, in the days and weeks afterwards, very little was said about this specific comment in the MSM. I had sort of forgotten that he said it.
Today, I saw this post at INDC Journal and I was again reminded of how dangerous that statement was. Just on that comment alone, I can't see how anybody could vote for John Kerry. They are not playing around here, folks, and neither should we.
