Great letter in the current Weekly Standard:

FRED BARNES is right when he argues that what John Kerry says in a debate is more important than how he says it. Indeed, what Kerry says may come back to haunt him later, such as his remark about our foreign policy needing to pass a "global test."

Perhaps we should ask Kerry if it is also an interstellar test. In attempting to explain his debate remark later on CNN, Kerry said, "I can do a better job of protecting America's security because the test that I was talking about was a test of legitimacy, not just in the globe, but elsewhere."

Not just in the globe? Does he mean in addition to the United Nations we also need the approval of the United Federation of Planets before defending America? And Dubya is supposed to be the inarticulate one?
