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

Is that what Kerry said, or is that the Ten revision 2.3 version?


LOL.

Ask him about the beta version of Bush. <g>

JF, Is that what Kerry said, or is that the Ten revision 2.3 version?

Secondly, a recent report has revealed that Kerry, in 1997, actually supported unilateral military operations to unseat Saddam Hussein in Iraq. Appearing on CNN’s “Crossfire”, on Nov. 12, 1997, the great internationalist even declared that the same UN approval he now preaches for on campaign stops wouldn’t be necessary for then-President Bill Clinton to launch an offensive against Saddam’s regime. “The administration is making it clear they don't even need the UN security council to sign off on a material breach...so furthermore, I think the United States has always reserved the right and will reserve the right to act in its best interests.”

He went on to criticize Germany, France, and Russia, asking where their “backbone” was in standing against Hussein.

Kerry’s 1997 rhetoric sounds vaguely similar to someone from the present day. Who could that be? Why, President Bush, that’s who. So, the lesson is, if a Democrat is in office, Saddam is fair game, but if a Republican is in office, we’re going to war for Halliburton.


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. At least you know neither Kerry nor Moveon.org would ever flip in their views on President Bush.
