GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK, Ariz. -- Responding to President Bush's challenge to clarify his position, Sen. John Kerry said Monday that he would have voted to authorize the war in Iraq even if he had known then that U.S. and allied forces would not find weapons of mass destruction.

Senator Waffles (D-MA) is at it again. He's now come full circle and has adopted a position on the War that matches Pres. Bush's exactly. This is apparently in response to a challenge from Bush to clarify his position.

Well we know what Dem focus group and internal polls are showing... don't we

I like how Kerry said he would have had better intelligence. Well, Dufus was the Intelligence Committee and had the exact same intelligence presented to him as to the President. He voted for the war and now is trying to have it all ways. He also, as a Senator, could have been trying to make alliances with his friend, Chirac, who would have laughed in his face. For all we know, Chirac did do just that.

Perhaps it occurred to them that the logical response to their criticism on WMDs, and the war in general, is to ask if they think that we should put Saddam back where we found him.

By putting Saddam back where we found him, I hope you are referring to "in the ground." Yep, let's stick him in his spider hole and pour cement over him.

I'll foot the bill; as long as a Dem approves the procedure. (I'm a process kinda guy. If-then-else functionality). Zeroes and ones make my day.

Senator Flip-Flop has more positions than the Kama Sutra.

Somebody inform the FAT BASTARD MOORE....!

The scary part is that the media isn't calling him on this. They just nod and wait for his next pronouncement. Highly disgusting.
