There is nothing contradictory about understanding that Iraq is the wrong war but that something has to be salvaged there to prevent the kind of anarchy where Al Qaeda thrives. Our allies are smart enough to figure this out too. Only Junior and some of this followers seem to be unable to grasp it. TP

>a) He claims he will not give other nations veto power over American foreign policy, then seconds later declares we must meet a "global test". Waffling, but pretty clear what his position is. There's a difference between doing things that would make sense to other countries and giving those countries veto power. >b) He claims he will bring other nations into the war, but the war is the "Wrong War, Wrong Time, Wrong Place". Waffling like hell, but pretty clear what his position is. It might be the wrong war, but since we've broken the country, Kerry is going to try to bring in other countries to help fix it. He'd rather not cut and run, but I personally think he's going to fail and will have to do so anyway. >c) He claims he supports our soldiers, yet he refused to support funding for them. This point has been driven into the ground and is BS. He's waffled, as has every politician (and every person!), but these are not examples. -Z

a) He claims he will not give other nations veto power over American foreign policy, then seconds later declares we must meet a "global test". Waffling, but pretty clear what his position is. I haven't seen him give veto power to other nations. Pls provide a link. TIA. b) He claims he will bring other nations into the war, but the war is the "Wrong War, Wrong Time, Wrong Place". Waffling like hell, but pretty clear what his position is. It is the wrong war. But saying it doesn't absolve us of responsibility..........unfortunately. c) He claims he supports our soldiers, yet he refused to support funding for them. There were two funding packages.....he supported one, not the other. These are indisputably waffles which occured within minutes of one another. You want to see some not related to the war? Yes, with links to back up your statements. TIA.
