Kerry: Bush needs new policy, not 'a new stump speech'

[kpete]

"No matter how many times the President redelivers the same political speech, we need action and not words," Kerry said. "The Administration needs to focus less on a strategy to win a mid term election and more on a strategy that will win the war on terror."

Kerry slammed the Bush Administration for doing "absolutely nothing" to fix the country's "dysfunctional intelligence system" in the five years since the 9/11 attacks.

"September 11th brought home the costs of a dysfunctional intelligence system marred by bureaucratic infighting, inadequate resources, and faulty analysis," said Kerry. "But we’ve done absolutely nothing to correct it."

"The 9/11 commission just recently gave our government a failing grade on implementing intelligence reforms and our ability to intercept terrorist communications remains in legal limbo," Kerry continued. "The Administration needs a new policy, not a new stump speech."

1. Bush needs *a* policy. All he has is promises and slogans.

He never specifically says how he's going to do things. If at all, he'll give some (monetary) figure and *never* say what percentage it is of what's really needed. Or, fear and smear when he has nothing else.
