Kerry announces stunning policy change
How Kerry will prevent another scandal like the current one regarding the photos taken at the Abu Ghraib prison.
From CSNB news:
Seeking to offer a way as to how his administration will differ from the Bush administration in the conduct of the war against Iraqis, Kerry spoke on the issue of the photos from the Abu Graib prison that have shocked the nation. Such a thing will not be possible under his administration, he declared. In stunning contrast to Bush, Kerry announced today in Toledo, Ohio, that the "day I am inaugurated I will issue an order to confiscate all cameras-- digital, video, and film, from all enlisted men and women stationed overseas." This, Kerry states, will increase America's standing abroad.
He also reiterated his desire to increase by at least 40,000 the number of U.S. troops in Iraq. He also said that he will seek to increase funding for the things U.S. troops need in their continuing occupation of Iraq, including body armor, GPS systems, dog leashes, and broken broom sticks. The troops "should not have have to provide for these things on their own".
Vote Kerry, for an occupation we can all not think about.

after cleaning up the vomit on my keyboard...
That dosn't mean that Kerry is not a lying scumbag. All politicians are lying scumbags. But he didn't say this.
While the notion of $#147;confiscating all cameras from active duty servicemen [sic] has actually been proposed—and proposed by somebody named John, it was actually proposed by John Ashkroft, not John Kerry. During all the chaos of both Operation Iraqi Liberation and a presidential election campaign, I realize it's quite simple to confuse sources. Ashkroft has so far been unavailable to answer the question of whether or not God told him to unveil this policy.
