Does Kerry Know Someone We Don’t Know?

P.J. O’Rourke has a column posted entitled Putting Words in the President’s Mouth:
Sixteen obvious points that George W. Bush should make during the Wednesday night debate
. Point #13 is this one:

(13) You say you’re going to get our friends and allies to take a bigger role in Iraq. Senator Kerry, what friends and allies? You’re a sophisticated fellow. You’re well-traveled and speak French. Are there some countries out there that you know about and the rest of us have never heard of?

I would add: France and Germany both have already said that they won’t send any troops to Iraq under any circumstances–whether Kerry is elected or not. So what “role” does Kerry have in mind for them? Chief consumers of Iraqi oil as soon as we get the pipelines pumping again? Or does he plan to bribe them as Saddam did? Is bribe money a line item in his budget plan?
Read the rest of O’Rourke’s 16 points. Then keep score and see if Bush mentions any of them.

  1. And he has insulted our allies. In today’s WSJ it reports the anger of Aleksander Kwasniewski of Poland not because of faulty intelligence of WMD, but because Kerry has marginalized others’ sacrifices in the war.
