be raising holy hell on the senate floor tomorrow. I'd whip out my dong and yell "Suck it, you conservative fucks! That's right, you heard me. Now everybody line up. Frist, I'm starting with you!" Why, you might ask? Because of this:

All 26 NATO members pledged in some capacity to support the alliance's mission in Iraq to train Iraqi security officers -- whether through personnel or financial donations.

Training Iraqi military and police forces is seen as a key component to reducing the 150,000 U.S. troops deployed in Iraq.

"The NATO training mission is an important mission because after all, the success of Iraq depends upon the capacity and the willingness of the Iraqis to defend their own selves against terrorists," Bush said.

Some NATO countries -- like France and Germany -- have refused to participate in training inside Iraq. France has offered to train Iraqi personnel outside the country.

Now some of you may be saying to yourself, "So what?" Some of you may be thinking, "kissfan's losing it." But no, faithful reader, kissfan isn't losing anything. Why don't we step into the famous way-back machine. Let's go back to a time before Nevember 22, 2005 2004, shall we. Let's take a look at what it says on John Kerry's official web site about training Iraqi troops. It says:

Last February, Secretary Rumsfeld claimed that more than 210,000 Iraqis were in uniform. Two weeks ago, he admitted that claim was off by more than 50 percent. Iraq, he said, now has 95,000 trained security forces. Neither number bears any relationship to the facts. By the administration's own minimal standards, just 5,000 soldiers have been fully trained. And of the 32,000 police now in uniform, not one has completed a 24-week field-training program.

John Kerry and John Edwards believe the President needs to:


• Provide incentives to improve and accelerate military and police recruitment.


• Expand urgently the security forces training program inside and outside Iraq by establishing a single, common template for police training and another for military training, and enlisting our NATO allies to open training centers in their countries.


• Recruit thousands of qualified trainers from our allies, especially those who have no troops in Iraq.


• Strengthen the vetting of Iraqi recruits, double classroom training time, and require follow-on field training.

Look familiar? Sure it does. Too bad nobody in the press has the balls to point this out.

So to John Kerry I say, "Whip it out, buddy. You deserve a good blow after all the ass-fucking you had to take from those bastards. Enjoy it while you can because you were right."
