Don't hold back, tell me what you really think.

Waiting for some FreeBSD ISO's to download, I followed some links to find The Bleat, a rather irreverent blog with some good things to say. In today's post, he goes off on a rather well written rant about many of Kerry's claims from the debate. He's not afraid to use an expletive here and there for emphasis. By the end, you can just imagine him being red-faced and out of breath, but I have to say he has stated quite well many of my frustrations with Kerry. Some choice excerpts:

I can’t take any more talk about bringing allies to the table. Which ones? Brazil? Mynmar? Microfrickin’nesia? Are there some incredibly important and powerful nations out there whose existence has hitherto escaped me? Fermany? Gerance? The Galactic Order of the Belgian Dominion? Did we piss off the Vulcans? Who? If we mean “France and Germany,” then please explain to me why the reluctant participation of these two countries somehow bestows the magic kiss of legitimacy. They want in? Fine. They don’t? Fine. At this point mooning over France is like being that sophomore loser dorm pal who spent his dateless weekends telling his loser roommate about a high school sweetheart who stood him up for the prom. Give it up. Move on.

...

And I’m not exactly thrilled with the idea of a big summit of non-allied allies after the election, either. Summits are convened not to solve a problem but solve the perception that there is a problem. Imagine if the government had been different in 2002 - we’d have had a summit with France and Germany. End result: the sanctions would be dropped by now, and Saddam would still be in power.

...

Here’s the thing. I’d really like to live in John Kerry’s world. It seems like such a rational, sensible place, where handshakes and signatures have the power to change the face of the planet. If only the terrorists lived there as well. Who does Zarkowi fear the most - France, summiteers, or Marines? If the rightness of a cause is measured by the number of one’s allies, would Britain have been right if the US had stayed neutral in World War Two?

I'm not exactly sure what word he's looking for, starting with S and ending five letters later in T. SOVIET and SADDAT both fit, but not the context. Anybody got a guess? Side note: the advertising on his site happened to rotate through this gem. The perfect gift for your favorite Youth Pastor or college student.
