Bush: 106,000 Iraqis DEAD. Bush: lied about WMDs. Bush: lied about connection between 911/OBL and Saddam. Bush: lied about who was going to pay for war. Bush: lied about color coded alerts Bush: lied about SS Bush: lied about Medicare bill Bush: lied about tax breaks for the ultrawealthy Bush: lied about deserting the military Bush is a sociopath and you're still hung up on war hero Kerry? What in the world are you still defending Bush for? The schimp is a liar, a military incompetent and a fiscal disaster. Reagan is weeping in his grave for the destruction Bush has wrought.

None of those are flip-flops, they're criticisms of the way a policy is carried out by extreme rightwingers who got the bills through posing as moderates or patriots. For instance when Bush pushed his Medicare Bill through then surprise! announced it's going to cost an extra 135 bilion. Bushies use a lot of bait and switching. Including on the war powers resolution. If you want fli-flops look there. The whole notion of a Kery "flip-flop" was just Rove's way of trying to tie Kerry to Howard Dean and keep him from moving to the middle. Also to disguise the fact Bush flip-flopped in huge ways since the 2000 campaign where most of his campaign promises were broken. Also, Kerry has been consistently right on the issues. The 87 billion for instance, he wanted accountability attached to it, that's all. The Republicans voted for it without accountability and that has cost tax-payers billions. Billions have just disappeared in Iraq. He did change his mind on terrorist death penalty and trade agreements but so did almost everyone else. The world changes and sometimes you have to change with it. The other stuff is really old. Back when the Bush family were pro-choice moderates.
