#1 damn: should've HT'p Captain Ed and put it on pg 2.

JOHN Kerry's campaign has warned Australians that the Howard Government's support for the US in Iraq has made them a bigger target for international terrorists.

Diana Kerry, younger sister of the Democrat presidential candidate, told The Weekend Australian that the Bali bombing and the recent attack on the Australian embassy in Jakarta clearly showed the danger to Australians had increased.

"Australia has kept faith with the US and we are endangering the Australians now by this wanton disregard for international law and multilateral channels," she said, referring to the invasion of Iraq.

Asked if she believed the terrorist threat to Australians was now greater because of the support for Republican George W. Bush, Ms Kerry said: "The most recent attack was on the Australian embassy in Jakarta -- I would have to say that."

Ms Kerry, who taught school in Indonesia for 15 years until 2000, is heading a campaign called Americans Overseas for Kerry which aims to secure the votes of Americans abroad -- including the more than 100,000 living in Australia

#3 Who needs a "vast right-wing conspiracy" when you have The Kerrys doing it to themselves?

#4 The Captain's comments make the case re: the damage Kerry is doing to US- Australian relationship for political points

#5 Just in time for the Oct 9th elections in Oz, of course.

Skerry's just emulating his heroes Chirac and Shroeder. In terms of integrity, ethics, credibility, partisanship, and outright self-serving asshattedness, no matter the cost or who is harmed, he's right there shoulder to shoulder with 'em. That's Skeery's brand of patriotism and his whole family seems to be of a single (hive?) mind.

After the election, Massachussets, in a fit of wild appreciation to the rest of the nation for avoiding the calamity of electing this zipperhead as President, should successfully execute a recall of both of their Senators, and petition Dubya to deport them somewhere. Anywhere will do. Methinks Australia would not be one of their options.

#6 .com: The New Zealand government would probably welcome them.

Personally, I'd vote for deportation to Mars. But I'd settle for Venus.

#7 I'm afraid you're right, heh. Let's spoil the fun and make sure they know they'll be inhaling sheep farts with every breath...

#8 #7 .com: Hmmmm. You've brought up an interesting point.

Would their overheated bloviating be considered cruel to the sheep? PETA might object, in that case.

I wouldn't worry about the Mass. Duo noticing the sheep farts, though. I doubt they'd notice, compared to their own socialist stentch.

#9 Is it just me or has the Kerry campaign now pulled the trigger on the gun they've had pointed at their collective head for the last few weeks? Kerry's campaign is now actively discouraging the very allies he claims to want to involve from acting with us in the War on Terror. They won't be able to nuance this enough to keep Karl Rove from scoring a knockout with it.

#10 Since Diana Wants to be a part of her brother's forein policy team, we could offer her a post on the planet where the Roswell, NM aliens come from.

#11 I wouldn't say the aliens "come" from New Mexico. That's where they crashed. However, that seems more appropriate for the Kerry campaign: crash and burn. They're doing it to themselves.

#12 In order words Kerry is going to endanger the lives of U.S. servicemen (by influencing the Austrailian election to get them to pull out and enbolden the terrorists) in order to score a few political points in the election.

Will this traitor stop at nonthing? Whats next? Will he hold secret meetings with OBL and/or Zarqawi in Paris like he did with the North Vietmanese during the Vietnam war.

Why not? He endangered American G.I. during Vietnam by helping to convince (along with Hanoi Jane) the North Vietmanese to continue to fight and not seek peace. I think he is willing and able (and even eager) to do the same thing now.

#13 "...Massachussets, in a fit of wild appreciation to the rest of the nation for avoiding the calamity of electing this zipperhead as President, should successfully execute a recall of both of their Senators..."

Instead of executing a recall of their Senators, why not just execute the Senators?

JMHO...

#14 Shhhhhhhh... Now I know you were referring to the proper authorities, i.e. The Modern Salem Coven of Asshole Retribution and White Magic SuperBitch PayBax, but ya gotta be careful about how you talk on the 'Net, heh. People get all hinky when talk turns to lamppost decoratin' inside the US...

Personally, I be likin' the idea... Always wanted to see Samantha's Dark Side!

#17 Is there a chance that this article will make to a major newspaper here, in the US?
Has it been on Fox yet? If it has not, it should be.

Didn't think so.
