Rebuttal To Kerry’s “October Surprise”

I read Vilmar’s post below about Kerry and Edwards “October Surprise” and started to comment, then decided this needed a little research and a sound rebuttal to Kerry, based on facts. Here is what Senator FuckFace had to say about the missing weapons cache in Iraq ....

“This is one of the great additional blunders of Iraq. The unbelievable incompetence of this administration, step after step, has put our troops at greater and greater risk, over-extended the American military, isolated the United States, put a greater financial burden on the American people. George W. Bush has failed the test of commander in chief.”

Kerry is a real work of art, isn’t he? The man can twist anything and will stoop to any low level of name-calling to accomplish his goals. Now, here are the facts:

1- To date, 10,033 caches have been cleared with a total of 405,944 tons of munitions delivered to the CEA points, an average of about 40 tons of munitions per cleared cache.

2- Of that total, 243,045 tons of munitions have been destroyed, and 162,899 tons remain at the CEA points for future destruction.

3- 16 caches remain outstanding, containing an esti-mated total of 6,068 tons, an average of 380 tons per cache.

4- Kerry is blaming Bush for the disappearance of ONE CACHE out of almost 11,000 that have had to be secured.

5- Recent data indicate that the grand total will continue to grow. Over the six-week period from the end of July to mid-September, CEA discovered an additional 291 caches with a total of 105,028 tons of munitions—cache discoveries continued to the time of writing. CEA estimates a total of 600,000 tons of munitions is the total tonnage, including munitions destroyed during OIF and scattered about the countryside. ISG believes this number is fairly uncertain, and could go considerably higher in the future as new caches are discovered. We regard 600,000 as a lower limit on total munitions.

Get the facts on Saddam’s weapons caches here from the Iraq Survey Group.

You can read the entire Iraq Survey Group final report (30 September 2004) here.

You damn sure will not get the facts from the Democraps. They have hounded President Bush for not having found the “weapons of mass destruction” while the military, under Bush’s guidance has secured and/or destroyed a “mass of destructive weapons”. Kerry is saying Bush is falling down on the job because 1 weapons cache (380 tons) went missing while 10,033 caches (405,944 tons) have been secured and destroyed. ISG estimates over 650,000 tons total were in Iraq to begin with. Let’s do the math ....

1- 62% of Saddam’s weapons caches have been secured and destroyed.

2- 38% remains to be destroyed.

3- .0005% has gone missing.

Keep in mind that the US military has accomplished this herculean task of destroying all these weapons while being under-funded because Senators like John Kerry and John Edwards voted against appropriations to support the war in Iraq that they voted for. On top of that, the two Senators who want your vote are blaming those valiant troops, who are doing their dead-level best to destroy these weapons, of failing to do their duty by letting one cache of weapons disappear. John Kerry is a menace to the truth, honor and duty. He doesn’t understand any of them and he damn sure doesn’t understand the harm he is doing to troop morale, allied support and honesty in politics .... or else he just doesn’t give a damn as long as he wins the Presidency. In my opinion, it is the latter.

These are the facts, folks .... something you won’t get from Kerry, Edwards, the Democrats, the media, the Radical Muslims or Hollywood.

The Truth: get it straight, get it right, get it here.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
