2. That Was Always My Problem with Edwards
not to mention Lieberman. The only thing that makes me feel better is that I know that Kerry/Edwards would never do the same thing under the same circumstances.

And none of what I heard defended the Iraq war (although I missed Lieberman). Securing the country to hand it over to a representative government is not the same as justifying the invasion.
