Not just Sen. Kerry but many others (Hillary)...afraid to speak the truth and obvious as if they portend some big bad thing happening in the future and that they'd be held responsible. For example, if Kerry would endorse a full withdrawl...as blm and many of us here want...he'd somehow be held responsible if there was another 9/11 or other type attack.
This is the same pattern I saw in the IWR...those votes were to cover their asses...plain and simple. Kerry was afraid that if he voted against a popular war, he'd suffer politically...that somehow he'd be turning of "moderate" votes. He, of all people, knew how bogus the intel and the stovepiping was at the time. Other Senators saw it and voted No/No...Kerry played it safe and now and forever will have to dance with this "nuanced position".
Problem is "nuanced" no longer works. Not that it did last year.
