They don't even get to vote in their own country...

I'd like to buy this reporter a drink.....

"I've met foreign leaders who can't go out and say this publicly, but boy, they look at you and say, 'You've got to win this, you've got to beat this guy, we need a new policy,' things like that," he said.

While Mr. Kerry did not name names, he has been winning apparent support from abroad — from North Korea.

"In the past few weeks, speeches by the Massachusetts senator have been broadcast on Radio Pyongyang and reported in glowing terms by the Korea Central News Agency, the official mouthpiece of [Kim Jong-il's] communist regime," the Financial Times newspaper of London said last week.

Hey, Kerry put it on the table. Since North Korea is the only nation with a public position on the US Presidency....well, it's relevant, isn't it?

The fact that other nations (most likely our enemies like France, Iran, N. Korea, et. al) want Kerry to win is more confirmation that he's the wrong man for the job.

PS- What foreign leaders is this f'ing liar meeting with, the Premier of Cameroon?

Communist party mouthpieces are not known for their...shall we say, riveting... commentary.

How devoid of content and ridiculously boring did a Kerry speech have to be to earn this unique honor?

Hell, even humor is illegal in North Korea.

"Hell, even humor is illegal in North Korea."

- - -Correction: intentional humor may be illegal, but unintentional humor is alive and well and sitting on the throne.

Have the Norks ever endorsed a major party candidate before?

While the Soviet Union was hoping for Mondale in 1984, I don't remember their publicly taking that position.

Did Germany or Japan take a position in 1940 or 1944?

The worrisome thing is that many will knowingly vote for a candidate endorsed by our enemies.
