US Bashing...on Foreign Soil
It has almost become a prerequisite for liberals. It's the practice of bashing America while on foreign soil. From Jimmy Carter to Al Gore to Bill Clinton and most recently John Kerry.

Kerry, while in Switzerland, called the US "a sort of international pariah." He went on to blame the US for global warming (still an unproven theory and definitely not caused nor controlled by human intervention) and AIDS in Africa. He also said that Americans have an "unfortunate habit" of viewing the world "exclusively through an American lens." Kerry, of course, views everything through the European lens of his wife, Teresa Heinz. She is the one who finances Kerry.

We have to wonder not only why they bash America, finding all the problems in the world rooted in the US, but why they only do it on foreign soil. Then they have the nerve to say that the world takes a dim view of the US.

It's interesting that while world opinion is generally negative towards the US, they always come running to America for help. It's also amazing when you look at recent history that no democrat administration has defended the US since John F. Kennedy. It has only been Nixon, Reagan, Bush and George W. Bush. Carter and Clinton ran from any confrontation with terrorists. It took their Republican replacements to clean up their messes.

We only hope that John Kerry reminded everyone in Europe, as he and the media in the US always do, that he was a Vietnam veteran. Kerry still refuses to release his complete military record. It seems that Kerry was dishonorably discharged and then received amnesty from Jimmy Carter. He then claimed that he was honorably discharged after a review "board of officers." No such review exists for an honorable discharge. Since he threw his medals over the White House fence after they were revoked by his dishonorable discharge, he applied to have them reinstated in 1985.
