There's an RNC attack site? Where would that be? The points I brought up were entirely from Prolifes articles which you summarily discarded, however I had read of them all before.

Thanks for finally responding in a way where we can discuss the points without the blind demolib mantra.

<< 1) Kerry always supported taking out Saddam, but only with a large coalition, the UN and a strong smart pot-war plan. He's been right from the start about all of that.>>

But how could he have been right all along, according to you there was no reason to go into Iraq as it was based on lies. If there were legitimate reasons to take out Saddam (I obviously think there were) then why is it all the Dems are harping on how the only justification for the war was based on lies? If Kerry supported the decision to go in (he did) (maybe not how, but the decision to do so) wasn't he wrong if it was based only on lies?

Kerry wanted to stop the Viet Nam war. Good for him. Did he not accuse veterans of being war criminals? And the upside down flag portrayal mocking the marines on Iwo Jima? Wanting to stop the war can be seen as noble, were his actions done in a manner that you deem acceptable? I find his methods were very anti-American, disrespectful and certainly not fitting of a President. (Don't talk to me about GW, we're talking Kerry here)
The heart-wrenching demonstrations you speak of, obviously didn't affect Kerry the same way--if he truly had the convictions you claim, he would have thrown HIS OWN medals.

You say Kerry is his own man now -- so he wasn't before?
<<Kerry is moving more to the center now>> A man who blows with the wind, whatever to make him appeal more to those he wants to vote for him. Changing his views is indeed "waffling", he seems to lack his own convictions. You should take a look at him from a different perspective, you're too caught up in it. He is without a doubt liberal, no matter how much you and he and whoever else wants to deny it, his voting record alone speaks of that.
