Not those world leaders

This past weekend Dennis Hastert (R- IL) opined that Al Qaeda would be more comfortable with a Kerry administration than a Bush administration. This, of course, prompted criticism of Hastert by the Kerry\Edwards campaign.

Many months ago Kerry proclaimed that some world leaders wanted him to win this election, but refused to say which ones. Now, that someone has actually provided a name of some world leaders that might want Kerry to win, they get all excited and disparage the statement.

I think everyone would agree that Kerry appears to be softer on terrorists than Bush. Most people would agree that the terrorists would want the person who is a less of a threat to them to win, ergo, they would want Kerry to win. However, that line of thinking requires logic and common sense. That will prevent most liberals from reaching that same conclusion.

I think that Kerry would prefer the focus on "great leaders" like Chirac, Koheler, and Ciampi. Those nations who were already once victims of US "liberation" back 60 years ago. If we had not intervened they could all be one happy Nazi state.
