Kerry: The Unserious Candidate

Yesterday John Kerry intoned that the $200 billion spent in Iraq "is $200 billion that we're not investing in education, health care and job creation here at home." John Podhoretz suggests that with this remark Kerry has officially "consigned his presidential hopes to the ash-heap of history." "Americans with grave concerns about Iraq actually deserve a better advocate than Kerry, who wants to reduce those concerns to a false monetary calculation. This is a serious country, and Iraq is a serious business. Barring some event out of Kerry's or Bush's control, this unserious man from Massachusetts will not become our president. "
