Wow 7 replies so far and not a single one of you bothered to check up on Fox News's claims. Study after study has shown that Fox News viewers are the most misinformed of any in the American public, by wide margins believing that Saddam Hussein did 9/11, was involved in 9/11, had weapons of mass destruction, etc. etc., and this is just another example.

But don't distrust it just because it's a Republican partisan news station (thats why I distrust it, not why you should). I honestly would have believed it too had the quote not been so ludicrous. John Kerry has served in the Senate for 19 years and it is absolutely absurd that he could say such a thing. He would have to have been on Mars to be so ignorant. So after doing a Google search, this is the only quote I could find:

"when Bill Clinton left office not one young American in uniform was dying in a war anywhere in this world,'' said Kerry.

It seems to be referring to his Arkansas speech. This quote is also found in the Washington Times and the LA Times online, referring to his Arkansas speech. But the other quote is nowhere to be found. So who's lying now?

And for the record, more US troops have died under this President than Clinton, Bush Sr., Reagan, Carter, and Ford combined (563 hostile deaths from 1980-1999, and we had no military engagements between Vietnam and 1983).
