Kerry Flip-flops on Missing WMDs
we all new it was only a matter of timeWhile the Washington press corps seems to have missed it, WABC Radioâs Steve Malzberg has been playing a clip of Sen. John Kerry in his biggest flip-flop yet - showing the presumptive Democratic nominee suddenly admitting that Saddam Husseinâs weapons of mass destruction may soon turn up. Heâs now officially only 10 steps behind the rest of America! Yeah!! Itâs quite a turnaround for Kerry, who just a few weeks ago was complaining, "George Bush sold us on going to war with Iraq based on the threat of weapons of mass destruction. But we still havenât found them . . . . We were misled about weapons of mass destruction." Key Kerry backer Howard Dean has been even more adamant, insisting to CNN earlier this month, "There were no weapons of mass destruction . . . This is Bushgate, which is far more serious than Watergate." lookâs like no ones really sure about what Kerry wants to say these days But Tuesday night on MSNBCâs "Hardball," Kerry retreated. "Fall back men, Iâve kept one view point for too long!!" "It appears, as they peel away the weapons of mass destruction issue - and we may yet find them," he told host Chris Matthews. "Look, I want to make it clear. Who knows if a month from now, three months from now, you find some weapons? You may." Coincidentally or not, Kerryâs reversal came a day after the Jordanian government announced that WMDs from Syria were part of an al Qaida plot to kill 80,000 people in Amman with poison gas. At least one of the plotters has admitted he was trained in Iraq. The top Democratâs flip-flop also followed news that a suspected weapons of mass destruction production facility in Baghdad - disguised as a perfume factory - unexpectedly blew up, killing two GIâs who were searching the plant. And just like flip flops on the beach, so are the Kerry camps views... Posted by: Corvus Kiser writefra@yahoo.com 2004-05-03 |
