67. Let's follow this thinking through a little further
Edited on Fri Jan-02-04 11:01 AM by HFishbine
Okee doke. So, Kerry's yes vote was not a vote for the war. Let's accept that premise and jump to February and March of 2003. At this time, Powell was making his infamous presentation to the UN, which started being substantially debunked within days. Marchers took to the streets by the millions in the US. People against the war were being marginalized at every turn and elected leaders who gave credibility to their voices were in short supply.

Kerry now says he thinks the intellegence used to justify the war wass either the greatest intellegence failure or deception he's ever seen. When did Kerry come to this conclusion?

What I really need to read, in order to beleive that there is any credibility to the notion that Kerry really was against the war, are some remarks from Kerry in February or March where he questions the intellegence; where he says a word about the peace protesters having some legitimate arguments; that we shouldn't be going to war. Where are those statements?

I didn't think we should be going to war. I took to the streets in February and March to say so. If Kerry agreed with me, what was he saying while I was marching?
