Bush says war is always the last choice not the first for him
What a liar and he is doing it right on NBC to Matt Lauer. Matt of course refuses to confront him with any follow up questions.
He is now taking Kerry's talking points and using them. I wonder if Kerry will answer.

Great, now they're showing rudy lying. Gack!

2. It's all an election stance.
That's what it is. He is playing the "compassionate conservative" card. If he gets elected, he is going to go back to his old, twisted ways.

3. Bush worked hard to make sure there would be a war
wouldn't allow inspections, wouldn't consider containment, put all our troops out there so that we were in a use em or lose em situation, made it a test of resolve (that always points to war, doesn't it?) and never gave Saddam a way out of invasion--even giving himself up to the US wouldn't have stopped it. What a dick.

5. But...
bush now claims he never ever said the threat was imminent; it was a possible future threat. Perhaps. So...

bush kicked out the UN weapons inspectors, rushed our troops to war without enough rifles, ammo, body armor etc, against a "future threat"...as a "last resort"

ONLY a rightwingnut could ever possibly be stupid enough to believe such total crap.

7. Well, this is the meme from...
... now until November 2nd. George Bush is a thoughtful, caring guy, compassionate and reflective, strong but sensitive to the people of the US and the world.

That his actual behavior is the antithesis of the view they're pushing doesn't matter, as long as they keep repeating it, over and over again.

In the United States, the power of advertising is much greater than common sense, it seems. *sigh*

10. It certainly was the last choice for him when he was young enough to fight
in it.
