Well, I can tell you what Kerry did for the peole of Massachusetts as a prosecutor. He seriously weakened (if not outright destroyed) a vicious crime group,- the Winter Hill gang that was running racket in Somerville and around it.

As for the rest of that lawyer's argument,- he may have his facts right, but he is also forgetting something,- Kerry did not fuck up even nearly as many times as Bush did. And the list of Bush's fuck-ups runs too long for me to type here. Should I just mention a couple of bankrupted businesses, 152 people executed in TX (some with a clear reason for appeal), all his fuckups as President, and probably a hundred or so other things I am not even aware of:)

Kerry? How? What did he do against the gang?
Now, that becomes expremely interesting. Do you know any details?


Well, I guess we just need some mor efuckups for people to realize that anything would be better then Bush (Kerry including). I so wish there was an impeachment! Imagine him caught in the middle of a black mass... thta would so beat Monica Levinski:))

What do you mean by "a black mass". Sorry, didn't get that part.

As for Kerry's career,- he was District Attorney for the Middlesex County back in the 1980's, I think. As you can see, I don't know too many details,- but while DA, he successfully prosecuted enough people and arranged for enough of them to be taken off the streets to make the Winter Hill gang much less effective. That's all I can recall at the moment. Also, I read his book,- I think it is called "The New War",- where he addresses the issue of globalization and its effects on crime and terrorism (not that the two can be easily separated, really). Written in 1997 (or thereabouts), the book lays out details for how something like 9/11 can be facilitated with an amazing precision. He also is quite frank about how unprepared the law enforcement is, both domestcally and internationally, to deal with the new reality. I think he makes a lot of sense,- sure knows a whole lot more about how to fight crime than the Bush Administration, who either allowed 9/11 to happen through incompetence, or even were involved to some degree or other.
