Keep the Republic

A blog dedicated to expressing faith in God, hope in America, and a conviction to preserve the principles on which the nation was founded. Benjamin Franklin, after the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention, was asked by a concerned citizen of Philadelphia what type of government had been created after four months of closed-door meetings by the delegates; he responded, "A republic, if you can keep it."

Kerry's (non) meetings at the UN

Here is the story mentioned yesterday by Powerline about Kerry's foreign policy, well, exaggerations. He claimed on several occasions that he had met with the entire UN Security Council for a couple of hours before casting his October 2002 vote in favor of the use of force in Iraq. Apparently ambassadors for several nations on the Security Council have denied ever meeting with Kerry.

The story is potentially damaging, because it undermines Kerry's "integrity, integrity, integrity." But I do not believe it will result in any lasting damage to Kerry, if for no other reason than the mainstream media will refuse to consider this newsworthy.
