There is no conviction behind any of his votes, except his desire to stick his finger up in the air to figure out which way the wind is blowing.

Politicians do that... remember Leave No Child Behind? How about Bush's AIDS bill or hydrogen cars. It happens. Every politician plays to his audience. Every politician is a "flip-flopper." This is one of the reasons I have a strong disdain for our political process.

This "flip-flopper" thing is ridiculous -- the Republicans had nothing on Kerry, so they more or less accused him of being a politician... of course he is! So is every one of them!


Well said.

Z, Hell, I woulda been a lot more for the war if I believed for one minute that it wasn't going to cost us hundreds of billions of dollars... I wish that Kerry had saw the costs of the war in the first place, but lots of people were duped by the administration.

Even with all of that hindsight, Kerry is still saying he would have voted for the war. Do you think Kerry really means it, or do you think it's all "politics"?

Kind of a non-answer on your part. I'm pretty sure you didn't contribute your $275 just to perpetuate this political nonsense.
