Re: Hulk 2005
Many economists with disagree with your premise on the long-term negative effects of the deficit. Not being an economist, I have no idea.
As for Kerry's Iraq policy and his pledge to "internationalize" the rebuilding of Iraq, there is no evidence that it will ever come to pass. The reasons France, Germany, and Russia did not support the Iraq war have absolutely nothing to do with Bush and their view of him as a cowboy. They have everything to do with the financial ties those countries had to Iraq (especially France and Russia) and their belief that a "multilateral" foreign policy like the one adopted by President Clinton will help keep America's power and influence in the world in check.
If Kerry stays the course in Iraq, there is no credible reason to think that France, Germany, and Russia will send any troops or that they will contribute in any greater way than they are now.
