Un extrait, au hasard, dans le numero du 25 septembre:

Kerry promises “WAR” to voters during a speech at Temple University in Philadelphia, Sept. 24. He refuted charges that he is unable to decide whether his first new war as President would be with Venezuela, Iran, or Botswana, arguing that his administration, unlike the Bush Administration, would be able to attack many countries at the same time while keeping the war in Iraq going strong. Kerry condemned the Bush Administration for only caring about rich Americans. He promised to begin enough wars to give every unemployed young American a full time job in the Armed Forces, killing off enough of them to lower crime rates in decaying urban areas. Kerry expressed his special thanks to all those Vietnam veterans who have signed on to his campaign to carry forward the work of promoting U.S. world-wide corporate rule. “The sun will never set on the American Empire,” he said, “and the bodies of our heroic dead will fertilize the battlefields of every continent. Because of their
special experiences, every Vietnam veteran who joins my campaign is helping accomplish that mission.” He added that he holds no grudges against Vietnam veterans who stopped that war by rebelling against it. He said they are forgiven as long as they renounce supporting any such disloyal behavior by soldiers in Iraq, and agree to show their obedient loyalty to the Empire by supporting his campaign for the Presidency, and the war in Iraq as he will conduct it. He also appealed to Nader voters to come over to his campaign to defeat Bush. He pointed out that he and Nader stand together in opposing the immediate withdrawal of troops from Iraq, and that he and Nader both believe that the bloody sacrifice of more U.S. and Iraqi lives in the war is necessary and fully justified. "We know we can't count on the French. We know we can't count on the Russians. We know that Iraq is a danger to the United States, and we reserve the right to take pre-emptive action whenever we feel it's in our national interest." John Kerry, CNN, 1997 (Thanks to Ashley Smith for this one.)

On voit que malgrès la pression de certains milieux, tout le monde ne cède pas aux beaux yeux de Kerry...
