Bush Addresses Kerry Attack of Missing Explosives in Iraq

After repeatedly calling Iraq the "wrong war" and a "diversion," Senator Kerry this week seemed shocked to learn that Iraq was a dangerous place full of dangerous weapons. The senator used to know that, even though he seems to have forgotten it over the course of the campaign. But after all, that's why we're there. Iraq was a dangerous place run by a dangerous tyrant who had a lot of weapons. We have seized or destroyed more than 400,000 tons of munitions, including explosives, at more than -- thousands of different sites, and we're continuing to round up more weapons every day. I want to remind the American people if Senator Kerry had his way, we would still be taking our "global test," Saddam Hussein would still be in power, he would control all those weapons and explosives, and could have shared them with our terrorist enemies.

And here's part of Kerry's attack:

"And what did the president have to say about the missing explosives? Not a word. Complete silence,'' Mr. Kerry bellowed in Green Bay, Wis., all but daring Mr. Bush to answer him.

"Mr. President, what else are you being silent about?'' he asked. "What else are you keeping from the American people? How much more will the American people have to pay?''

As I mention in another post, these attacks are based on 'facts' that have since been severely questioned, not only by the administration, but by other journalists and media. Does this sound like a man who should be president?
