It's Kerry. You got a problem with it? Get a mirror. "mis-spoke". That's a polite sounding version of "lie", isn't it. "mis-spoke", my a**. He did it knowingly and intentionally and knowing the consequences with the intent of encouraging a nation the United States was at war with. In short, treason. If he is elected, it will be the lowest point in the entire history of the United States. The first time a traitor has been elected President. "flip-flops". His "flip-flops" are a LOT more recent than 30 years ago, buddy. Try 30 minutes ago.even though what he said in 1971 or thereabouts were factual. Didn't you say he "mis-spoke" and was "way over the top"? The how can what he said be factual? No wonder you support Kerry. You're as bad as he is. You can't even be consistent within the same paragraph.Of course, they now appear to be weird or outrageous or even unpatriotic as a consequence of his detractors' deliberate and opportunistic manipulation/dissembling of the facts. You mean playing his own words back at him? BTW, you are not an American citizen. We are not required to give a **** what YOU think.However, in Kerry's case, the Republican campaign propagandizes that any modification or qualification by Kerry of anything he had said is tantamount to a "flip-flop" or "inconsistency" which cannot but impact negatively on his and judgement and sanity and fitness to be the next C-in-C. He aren't talking change of viewpoint over 30 years. We're talking much shorter time frames than that. Months.And the tactics have succeeded somewhat, thanks to a flawed education system which has been churning out vast numbers of unthinking semi-literates, 'sheep' and 'parrots' that function as excellent henchmen for propagandists. I love it when you defenders of the common man praise him! You know what's really funny? The only time I see entiments like that is from the left.
