Vous êtes de Haïti? D'accord. Je vais aider les Haitiens.

You are from Haiti? OK. I will help the Haitians.

I think Kerry pronounced it quite well, with an American accent, but OK. He had real trouble with "Haitiens", though.

Idée mauvaise!  Rappelez-vous l'expérience du Monsieur Clinton sur Haiti???!

In any language, it's a bad g idea!  We should be more concerned with what he said than how he said it.  N'est ce-pas?

Goddamned, this is worse than the episode during which Republicans were obsessed with Monica fellating Bill Clinton.  Record deficits, terrorist threats, AIDS, war, social security going broke, and we're focusing on the fact that Kerry used a language other than English?!  WTF?

Wanna vote for Bush because he's a better choice than Kerry, at the moment?  Great.  Wanna vote for Bush because Kerry happens to speak French?  Jeezus Christ.  What a load of crap.   
AAAh, mon dieu!  C'est les temps modernes.  Quel étrange!

C'est incredible! La connaissance de la langue français devrais être une qualification, pas un désavantage!
