When we antagonize the international community we undermine our security
because the Intelligence community is so very dependent upon the cooperation of international agencies. This is the point Kerry has to make tonight. And I would also like him to tie this into how the Bush Administrations constant defiance of the international community (Kyoto, world court, etc) may have made us more vulnerable to 9-11 because maybe some of these nations were less willing to go the extra mile to share information with us.

1. I think it would be nice if he commented on
How the Bush Administration constantly mocks the Law Enforcement community. "Mr. President your administration, particularly Vice President Cheney, have consistantly suggested that I would look at Terrorism as a Law Enforcement problem. While that's a distortion of my position, it contains an element of the troop. I respect the men who risk their lives to become our police officers and FBI Agents, as well as those others who work in law enforcement. I think they have an important, even essential, part to play in fighting the war on terror. Why does your administration feel the need to denigrate their service?"
