Ten,

re: Don't forget Kerry 1.5, who said back in 1998 that America ought to have disarmed Saddam unilaterally.

Your "Ought to have" is far different than Kerry's "reserves the right". I don't think there are many on either side who think the US doesn't "reserve the right" to act unilaterally to protect itself; including me. Where you set the bar is the question.

And part of containment was sabre rattling and political rhetoric. Did you expect Clinton and Kerry to say to SH "there is no way we will attack unilaterally"? Of course you keep the max pressure on.

re: There is a very good reason why Kerry is keeping his mouth shut these days, and it all has to do with letting Moveon.org speak on his behalf.

I think there is some truth to that. Let Moveon and the other's do the dirty work, while the candidate takes the high road. It's a better strategy than Bush with his constant negative Kerry ads, and the web site ads that intersperse pictures of Kerry and Hitler.
