CINCINNATI � John Kerry (search) blasted President Bush on Wednesday for what he described as a trail of broken promises on the path to war and the
Democratic presidential nominee added that Bush squandered money that could be put to better use at home.
"I would not have made the wrong choices that are forcing us to pay nearly the entire cost of this war � more than $200 billion that we're not
investing in education, health care and job creation here at home."

Since the Republicans are focusing only on the "war" the Democrats are showing the other side of the war.
Over a thousand sons and daughters have given their lives. The focus should be on something else, since the "war" is dragging on and on with no end
in sight.
The focus should really be on the economy and health care, and education. If we keep focusing on the "war" I don't know who will win the election.
Just hope its not "Dubya" again, if he wins I am afraid he will have to start the draft again. The soldiers in Iraq have to rotated out. Not enough
soldiers available to do this.
