President George Bush yesterday accused Democrat rival John Kerry of attacking the credibility of Iraq's leader and branded him unfit to lead America.

He lashed out after Senator Kerry said the upbeat comments about Iraq by interim Prime Minister Iyad Allawi glossed over the problems in the war-torn country.

"You can't lead this country if your ally in Iraq feels like you questioned his credibility," Mr Bush said while campaigning in Wisconsin.

"My opponent chose to criticise the Prime Minister of Iraq," he said. "This brave man came to talk about how he's risking his life for a free Iraq - which helps America - and Senator Kerry held a press conference and questioned Prime Minister Allawi's credibility."

The poll indicated a credibility gap on Iraq for Mr Bush. Just 37 per cent of registered voters thought he was being truthful in describing conditions in Iraq and 55 per cent thought conditions were worse than he made them out to be.

We will run as the war president, resolute, going well etc. Any attempt by Kerry to question the progress or strategy and we will slam him for being un-American and unfit to be President.

Bush is trying as hard to convince voters that Kerry is giving aid and solace to the enemy as are the Swift Boat Veterans for UNtruth!

it is not un-American to question scurrilous acts committed by a corrupt administration.

Bush's desperate rhetoric is proof Kerry's is working. Go Kerry, go!!
