Boston Globe Gives Flip Flopping Advices
PRESIDENT BUSH has thrown down the gauntlet by asserting that he and his opponent share the same position on Iraq. Kerry's response, included in the Sept. 1 American Legion convention speech, has been that he would have given the inspectors the time they needed to do the job and he would have fought the war differently, with more allies, bigger body armor for troops, and a plan to win the peace.So how much time would the inspectors have needed? The situation would never have changed, just the weather. But giving inspectors more time would have shown that Iraq had no WMDs and no nuclear program that threatened us, meaning there was no justification for war. The inspections would not have shown that, they would only have shown more Saddam tricks. To prevent Bush from painting Kerry as a supporter of this misappliciation of US power, Kerry must firmly establish that he would have followed a much different course. Oh really. And what kind of course. Breakfasts at the Elysée? Posted by: True German Ally 2004-09-08 |
