"The state's junior senator said President Clinton had not been tough enough in his measures to subdue the Iraqi president."

So, now we can relax about Eff'n bashing Bush...it's not Bush at all...Eff'n just has a problem with Presidents who are not him [kerry].

Eff'n just wants to be the "boss" and he'll bash whomever it takes to get there.

kerry - IMHO - is pond scum.

The Boston Globalist is kicking itself for not purging its archives.

We are all anti-war. I have yet to meet someone who is pro-war.

It's in my Kerry file, along with saying Clinton didn't need the UN, didn't need France, Germany, etc.

Freeper jmstein7 found this months ago and I've been sending it to the RNC and various admin. officials every so often.

Thanks.

Someone needs to do a directory/index of al Querry's flip flops on Iraq the past decade.

Then we need to get that up and down to the various republicans in the country.

"What the hell do they believe in? "

"You can't tell by looking at this candidate!"

Thanks to a worthless media, their pro commy/islamo backing buddy, al Querry has gotten by with this BS for decades.

The one thing the rats believe in is getting elected and re elected. They will say anything to get elected or re elected.

We are in the process of pulling the curtains back and showing what liars they have been and are today.

Freeper jmstein7 has been unrelenting in his cataloging of Kerry flip flops. He has also made some internet commercials about Kerry.

The flip flops he has uncovered, complete with transcripts, are that:

1. Kerry thought Clinton did not need UN Security Council approval in order to attack Iraq.

2. Kerry signed a letter urging Clinton to attack Iraq, including the use of ground troops.

3. Kerry signed the Iraqi Liberation Act which called for regime change (under the Clinton admin.)

4. Kerry has talked about Saddam's WMD and the danger they pose for the United States, the region and the world.

5. Kerry talked about the danger that Saddam posed to the danger, the United States and the world.

The only thing Freepers DID NOT find (and I'm shocked :-)) is that Kerry talked on the floor of the Senate two years ago about Iraq's connections to Al Qaeda. Senator Frist mentioned that stuff this morning on the political talk shows, proving that I was WRONG and the RNC is doing what it needs to do - research - and will defend itself appropriately.

Thanks!

We need at least two to three good indexing teams to keep track what he said decades ago, this decade, last year, this year and last week.

Senator John F. Kerry, who began his public life as a Vietnam War protester, said yesterday that the United States should use ground troops to topple Iraqi President Saddam Hussein if he does not comply with international demands to give up chemical and biological weapons.

But that was before he didn't say it anymore.

That is the ONLY thing we don't have a link for.

Senator Frist mentioned it this morning on the political talk shows.

It must be in the Senate record but we'd need a date and all I know is that Frist said it was two years ago.

I'd love to write a letter to the editor but it will have more impact if I can cite a specific date and a few pertinent quotes.
