Kerry can contend it, but it isn't true. Saddam Hussein's thugs shot at our pilots patrolling the no-fly zones every day. It's a miracle none of them were shot down. This was my primary reason for supporting the war, not some weapons of mass destruction scenario.
Exactly. If Kerry is not prepared to respond with force when someone has fired literally thousands of missiles at our pilots, then he is not fit to be President. What I don't understand is why aren't the bloggers, etc. seizing on this issue. The War Resolution that Kerry voted for specifically states that one of the grounds for going to war is that Hussein was routinely attacking our pilots. Given that, how can he now say that Hussein didn't attack us in the leadup to the war. That seems to me like the mother of all flip-flops.
