"I didn't see George Bush or Dick Cheney at my side," Kerry said.

In an interview broadcast Monday on CBS' "The Early Show," Kerry said voters should reject Republican charges that he's not tough enough to take charge, and he recalled his own Vietnam experience.

"When I turned my boat in Vietnam into an ambush and I went straight into the ambush and overran it, I didn't see George Bush or Dick Cheney at my side," Kerry said. "So I'm not going to take a second seat to anybody in my willingness to be tough to defend the United States of America. I did it when it mattered, and as president I will defend the United States of America with everything I have."

Mr. Kerry ? ... You didnt see a wholelotta Republicans on that day ... They had 'other priorities', you see ...

LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS ! ....

or tough or even competent for that matter...he's an ignorant, cowardly boy.

Kerry is the real deal. A smart, brave, battle-tested warrior.

I know it's juvenile, but I would LOVE to see Kerry and Bush* in a fight...Kerry would mop the floor with that wuss Bush*.

...NOW.

Too late for the Swift Liars to attempt to muddy the facts.

He ALWAYS says the right things! What a response! After going after Brokaw about the completely bullshit IQ question Kerry lets it rip at the repukes on protecting our country! On to victory!

Excellent response. It would have been far excellenter a month ago.

Of course, the lying bastards would have just thought up another bogus argument and used that against Kerry, but I still wish he'd have said something along these lines earlier. And then said it about 10 more times.
