Oh, what tangled webs John Kerry weaves. But then again, foolish consistencies are the hobgoblins of little minds, not sophisticated, expansive minds calibrated for complexity and nuance, like John Kerry's.
Sen. Kerry has been trying to make himself a part of the news other than as a failed presidential candidate ever since he became a failed presidential candidate. He has been sending group e-mails almost daily since his defeat, on every imaginable political subject. Hey, if I'm on the distribution list, can you imagine who all gets these gems?
They cry out, "Look at me. I'm still here. I have craved this position since before I made the most profound statement ever uttered by a precocious politician-in-waiting: 'How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?' Oh, those were the glory days -- before the Swiftees started stalking me. Oh, and by the way, I'm running again in 2008."
Kerry has stepped up his profile even more in the last few days. Thirty-five years ago from the day he sat before the Senate Judiciary Committee and slandered his fellow Vietnam soldiers with false allegations that they committed atrocities, he gave a speech at Faneuil Hall in Boston. This time the subject was the War in Iraq and patriotic dissent. Kerry just couldn't wait to tell the fawning antiwar, antiBush audience how proud he was to have been a loud, dissenting voice on returning from Vietnam, and he was proud to be one again over Iraq. He also reiterated his patently bogus charge that the Bush administration, by defending itself against the onslaught of lies against it, is trying to stifle dissent.

Kerry makes any one of the THREE STOOGES look like Albert Einstein. And he makes Benedict Arnold look like a Boy Scout...
I wonder if he would sign this fully automatic Chinese AK-47 he brought back and handed to someone whose name he forgot and still doesn't care to remember in his family....which I just bought from the nice man with the beard in the Denny's parking lot...??!!!!
I bet it would be a real collector's item then.
Here's how a selective mindset works with John Kerry. Mary McCarthy is a "truth-teller" who is being punished for telling the truth about alleged torture chambers in Europe. Reports have come back saying this hasn't happened so they must be a lies.
President Bush is a "liar" who said the British intelligence believes Saddam was trying to buy uranium in Nigeria. Reports have come back from Joe Wilson saying this hasn't happened so this must be truth.
My head is spinning.
Kerry's making a move and getting slapped around pretty good.
bttt
Until Kerry shows me his actual 180 that states what he wants released and to whom, I will believe that he is a liar.
"Mother, tell me again about how I shall be President one day."
Bob Dole and Ross Perot are failed Presidential nominees, why are they not on Meet the Press every other week?
Because modesty is the art of dignified men.
True, but Bob Dole was pushing that with the E.D. adds.

Ah, Mr. Kerry, how about your "selective deception"?
That's a good one...
hanoi kerry went before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations in 1971
to accuse the United States military
of committing massive numbers of war crimes in Vietnam.

Legislative Proposals Relating to the War in Southeast Asia Thursday, April 22, 1971

Gotta tell ya.
"No matter how many times Kerry and others deny it, Bush's 16-word State of the Union statement that the British had learned Saddam was trying to acquire uranium from Africa was true. Britain still stands by it. And Bush did believe, quite reasonably, along with everyone else, that Saddam still had or was furiously developing WMD."
Digging around in this mess I looked at the 1998 Embassy bombings. Charges leveled against the perps by the Clinton admin were for WMD...................................................
car bombs.
Oh, and thanks for posting this. This is good medicine.
Kerry is doing two things:
1. He's playing to the anti-war activists in the Dem Party who vote in primaries and
2. Making himself a more viable candidate to Hillary who still "supports" the war effort.
Trust me, he wants to be the nominee again.
