DAVENPORT, Iowa - Democrat John Edwards (news - web sites) said Thursday that President Bush (news - web sites) has done too little to make the nation safer, reaching out to women voters who have said in surveys they believe Bush would do a better job than the Democrats of protecting the country.

Filling in for John Kerry (news - web sites), the Democratic presidential candidate who was nursing a voice hoarse from a campaign-trail cold, running mate Edwards said Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney (news - web sites) allowed Osama bin Laden (news - web sites) to escape, provided too little money for port and chemical plant security, went to war in Iraq (news - web sites) without a postwar plan and diminished U.S. standing in the world.

"The greatest tribute to those who died on Sept. 11 is to build a safer world where terrorism falls and democracy rises," Edwards said. "John Kerry and I will honor those who fell on Sept. 11 and those who have subsequently fallen in the fight for freedom by leading a relentless fight to crush terrorism and restore America as a safe, strong, respected nation once again."

"George W. Bush needs to come back to planet Earth," he said. "Don't you think the American people deserve a president who will absolutely tell them the truth?"

"The only two people in America who believe no mistakes have been made in Iraq are George W. Bush and Dick Cheney," Edwards said. "Things are going worse and worse."

"Every single day John Kerry is president of the United States, he is going to tell you the truth," Edwards pledged.

He does me.
In more ways than one.

Smart, cute, good husband, good father.

Rich doesn't hurt.:) So kill me.

Those were complaining about Edwards being "under-exposed" by the Kerry campaign won't have room to fuss about that now...he's set to make several "stand-ins" while Kerry rests his voice for the first debate...and so all of the important "exposure" for our side!:D

:kick:

Inspiring, though. Edwards needs more visibility.
