A small group of us met with Kerry in summer, 2002 and asked about Iraq. I was the moderate, undecided about it. Kerry told us that first of all Bushies were going to invade no matter what. He got that from Tony Blair's defense chief. He told us Bush had been planning the invasion even before he was elected.

Number two, Kerry stated that while he had strong reservations he wanted to make sure Saddam was disarmed so he would go along with it so long as Bush kept his promises. Those promises were exactly what Bush SHOULD have done but didn't do. (post-invasion plan, larger coalition, UN cooperation, only invade as last resort). Bush broke all his promises. Kerry had promised to hold Bush's feet to the fire if he broke them. I think he knew Bush would. So Kerry was not only 100% right about Iraq, he has the moral authority to hold Bush accountable.
Also now see Bush fli-flop and try to copy Kerry's position on Iraq. Too late though. We need a new president. Only Kerry can implement the Kerry Doctrine in Iraq.
