    OK, I'll post them rather than just links. And let's see if the crowd here believes this is specific enough to warrant a vote for Kerry...

    From the "New JFK's" Website:

    The most basic responsibility of a president is defending our homeland.
    We've seen some progress in making America more secure since September 11 - but there is still much more to be done. Today our government is not doing enough to make us safe. Our intelligence services remain fragmented and lack coordination. Our borders and ports are full of holes. Our chemical plants are vulnerable to attack. And across America, police officers, firefighters, and other first responders still lack the information, gear, and equipment to do their jobs safely and successfully.

    America needs a new strategy for homeland security that takes steps as big as the threats we face. John Kerry and John Edwards have that strategy. They will do whatever it takes to make America safe - coordinate our intelligence agencies, take action on all key fronts, stand up for security whenever special interests stand in the way, and get the needed resources to the first responders who defend America every day.

    Whatever it takes? So how's about's the record of our good Senator from Taxachussets, Kerry? What did he do for intelligence and defense?

    John Kerry and John Edwards will offer a new security strategy that addresses five major challenges:

    Track And Stop Terrorists

    Many of the intelligence problems that allowed terrorists to slip into our country before 9/11 have not been addressed. John Kerry and John Edwards will improve our ability to gather, analyze, and share information so we can track down and stop terrorists before they cause harm.

    Is this why he voted for the Patriot Act? Or is this why he's now against it? Wait a minute, I'm confused... And still no specifics.

    Protect Our Borders And Shores

    Today, our borders, our ports, and our airports are not as secure as they must be. John Kerry and John Edwards will make our airports, seaports, and borders more secure without intruding upon personal liberties.

    How? Or is this part of the "secret plan" that we'll all be privy to after we elect this fool?...

    Harden Vulnerable Targets

    Chemical industry lobbying has kept the Bush administration from strengthening security at chemical plants, where an attack could endanger 1 million Americans. John Kerry and John Edwards will always put Americans' safety ahead of big business interests and take strong measures to harden likely targets-including nuclear plants, trains, and subways-against possible attack.

    Again, how? What problems have been identified that need fixing? How is the President not addressing such (imaginary) problems? What exactly do you have in mind for the solution? Does it include tax increases? Will you consider a cut in social spending to provide a federal solution to this apparent problem with Chemical Plant security? Inquiring minds want to know! Or is this also part of the "secret plan"?

    Improve Domestic Readiness

    Our first defenders will respond to any attack with courage and heroism-but they also need the equipment and manpower to do the job. John Kerry and John Edwards will back up their words with resources and ensure that America's first responders have everything they need to protect their communities.

    Respond?????????????????? Does this "Response" (notice, this is after an attack naturally) include condemning those responsible "in the harshest possible language" at the U.N.?

    Guard Liberty.

    We must always remember that terrorists do not just target our lives - they target our way of life. John Kerry and John Edwards believe in an America that is safe and free, and they will protect our personal liberties as well as our personal security.

    Again, how? So far, the ACLU (hardly a Conservative organization) has found absolutely no abuses of the Patriot Act (the very same Act the good Senator from Taxachussets voted for). Where are examples of this loss of civil liberty? When you identify them (or fabricate them RaTHer), what will you do to stop them?

    Anyone else satisfied by the "New JFK's" national security policy???

        Does every thread that mentions a presidential candidate end with people debating stuff? No one's going to change their mind...

        Here's a reply you can give me...Shaddup Luggage!
        And then just continue to debate.

          Regardless, you're actually admitting here that he has no plan...

          I know you know this, but I just wanted to hear you say it.

          Thanks dude.

          I know you're no Kerry fan, and we all can see you're adamately against Bush here. But Kerry's a joke. I mean really, why would anyone support him? What do you think he offers America?

          At least Dean would've been sincere in his lunacy...

            So many words to say absolutely nothing.

            Today, our borders, our ports, and our airports are not as secure as they must be. John Kerry and John Edwards will make our airports, seaports, and borders more secure without intruding upon personal liberties.
            Details please?

              WHATEVER! Bush was the greatest guard pilot ever. He was there all of the time. He never did cocaine. He is also not an untreated alcoholic. He has made us a much safer and solvent country. More Americans are at work now than there were four years ago.

                  This election is "officially" over for Kerry and it was Dan who put the final nail in the coffin. Is the way that journalist want to change the world?
