Ted Re..Did it ever cross your mind that you are wrong? Billions of people are vehemently against this war and you still blindly go along with it. Like Bush, you insist you are right.

Did it ever cross your mind that history is almost always on the side of the man with integrity, over self interests. Is it the right thing to do. Was Vietnam the right thing to do morally. No, Diem wasn't an improvement over Ho, so history devastated the US. ON the other hand, saving SK was the right thing to do. While Truman wasn't the most popular president at the time, Truman now is looked upon as a highly principled man. Same with Carter. Just look at the vast difference in the accomplishments of Carter and Bill. Yet, who will go down in history as the better president. Gw and Blair have taken a moral stand here, it is the right thing to do, and almost everyone agrees, getting rid of Saddam is the right thing to do, they just don't want to pay the price. Neville didn't, but Churchill did, and who is the laughing stock, and who is one of history's greatest heroes.

Yesterday Ted Kennedy, one of two dem. not to be swayed by Powell, agreed that getting rid of Saddam was the right thing to do, but there are other, less expensive ways, as if they haven't been tried over the last 12 yrs. 40 yrs ago in Chappaquidick, Mary Jo died because Ted chose not to do the right thing, but rather what he thought was the least expensive thing, which was to talk to his lawyer first. Yesterday again, Ted proposed not doing the right thing, but the least expensive thing. Isn't that a slap in the face of the many men who died doing the right thing on the beaches of Normandy, or in Pusan,the Chosen resevoir or in the Gulf. Ted couldn't bring himself to do the right thing 40 yrs ago, and his yellow streak is still showing. Maybe that is why he has turned into a drunken lush for all of these yrs.
