Good to have you on the show. Now go clean out your dressing room.
During a 1997 debate on CNN’s “Crossfire,” Sen. John Kerry, now the Democratic presidential nominee, made the case for launching a pre-emptive attack against Iraq.
… The candidate who now criticizes President Bush for ignoring French and Russian objections to the Iraq war blasted the two countries, claiming that they were compromised by their business dealings with Baghdad.
“We know we can’t count on the French. We know we can’t count on the Russians,” said Mr. Kerry. “We know that Iraq is a danger to the United States, and we reserve the right to take pre-emptive action whenever we feel it’s in our national interest.”

what a pooper. argh.
yes the wp might be a “conservative” paper, but it was printed when? 1997. hmmm. seems like a see saw flip flop to me…
i know i personally have changed my mind about things i thought i understood, believed, wanted, chose to support, etc. since 1997. i must be a flip flopper.
well, at least you’re not trying to run for president. then we at least ask that you are honest about your flip-floppiness before you mudsling someone else’s decisions. but, who ever plays by the rules in politics.
good point.
and my comment was rather, uhm, intended to spark said debate.
im sure you all wonder what i think. too bad.
