Senator John Kerry's Speech at Brown University
Remarks As Prepared for Delivery

And that's what I've come to talk with you about today. The incompetence of Katrina's response is not reserved to a hurricane. There's an enormous gap between Americans' daily expectations and government's daily performance. And the gap is growing between the enduring strength of the American people -- their values, their spirit, their imagination, their ingenuity, and their willingness to serve and sacrifice -- and the shocking weakness of the American government in contending with our country's urgent challenges. On the Gulf Coast during the last two weeks, the depth and breadth of that gap has been exposed for all to see and we have to address it now before it is obscured again by hurricane force spin and deception.

First Bill. Now John -- Please, please, please
I WANT TO SEE MORE DEMS WITH BLOODY KNUCKLES! MORE! MORE! MORE!

1. Kerry is only giving hope and encouragement to the hurricanes
If we don't support Our President and Our Halliburton Reconstruction Teams, it will only embolden the hurricanes and they will strike us again.

2. Why does Kerry hate America?
And why aren't we fighting the hurricanes over there so they won't come over here?

3. DHS http://ready.gov Ready for Business but NOT Ready for Kids
The DHS web site http://ready.gov is NOT prepared for its own Preparedness Month (September is more than half over). The Ready Kids link is NOT READY.
