---IMO, a little unfair to bash Kerry on this one. He can't be expected to know everything, and his talking point on this topic is controlled, no doubt, by his foreign policy specialist Joe Wilson himself. :)
I just found this quote on CNN from Kerry on Sept.12,2001
"And Sen. John Kerry, D-Massachusetts, called the attacks "a declaration of war" that "demands a forceful response."
Added Kerry, "I have no doubt in my mind it's Osama Bin Laden."
"It's very much in keeping with the threats he has made," Kerry said. "The intelligence community has known all summer they have building up for some kind of attack."
Kerry said a number of attempted attacks, or plans for attacks, have been "thwarted" this summer. He said he was briefed by CIA Director George Tenet on this a few weeks ago."
Seems one of the major cries from the Dems is that "Bush knew and did nothing"....seems Kerry KNEW AND DID NOTHING!
