Kerry has repeatedly said President Bush is "running the most arrogant, inept, reckless, ideological foreign policy in the modern history of this country."
It's understandable that Kerry, a loyal Democrat, would pass lightly over the presidential tenure of Jimmy Carter - whose four-year tenure featured the onrush of communism into Central America, the Arab oil shock of 1979, the fall of Iran to the mullahs and the taking of 52 American hostages for 444 days and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. You really can't do much worse than that.
But what about Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon? Under whose tenures 58,000 Americans died in Vietnam.
