No man left behind

With just six days left until the election, John Kerry may have found the last group of military men left that he has not insulted. In a speech today, he insulted the brave Cuban-Americans who gave their lives in the Bay of Pigs invasion when an American president betrayed their cause at the last minute.

How appropriate it is that John Kerry, who betrayed his own crewmates from Vietnam, would chose an incident where his idol, John Kennedy, betrayed brave military men to insult the last remaining group of brave men in America he hasn't already offended. If you don't think this matters at this late date, read what a Cuban-American has to say.
I am completely stunned. What a great diservice Mr. Kerry does to those in the armed forces serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, dishonoring not only those Americans serving their country, but their allies. Like the men of Brigade 2506, the Iraqi's are fighting for their freedom. They depend on the strength of not just the US forces serving alongside them, but of the strength and conviction of the one man leading them.

John Forbes Kerry is not fit walk amongst these men, much less lead them.
Florida has a huge Cuban-American community. Florida is a crucial swing state. Cuban-Americans in Florida have been unsure about voting for Bush because of his stand on Cuba. John Kerry just gave them a reason to vote for Bush, push the state into the Bush column further, and close the election door on his hopes forever.

And he calls Bush incompetent!

UPDATE: Jim Geraghty saw the irony before I did.
