Permalink Kerry makes a good point

Democratic presidential nominee Sen. John Kerry accused the Bush administration Sunday of falsely linking Iraq to the attacks of September 11, 2001, "in its desperate attempts to reinvent a rationale for the Iraq war."

The Bush administration has done a bang up job to make the American people think there is a connection. Kerry needs to keep hammering this point.

"The 9/11 commission found there were numerous contacts between Iraq and al Qaeda in the 1990s, but it said those contacts did not result in a 'collaborative relationship.'"

Likewise, the US and North Korea have had numerous contacts but there has been no 'collaborative relationship.'

I just wish the guy would make up his mind. He said this today in Cincinnati:

"Today marks a tragic milestone in the war in Iraq; more than 1,000 of America's sons and daughters have now given their lives on behalf of their country, on behalf of freedom, the war on terror."

It would depend on how he said it. Was he being sarcastic with those last words? But true, he is wishy washy on some things. Case in point: he still says he would have invaded Iraq, regardless of WMD. What an idiotic stance.

Bush had a field day with the "Kerry first voted on the war, and then voted against it". That is utter nonsense. Kerry voted against the bill in order for a more financially fiscal bill to fund the war. He wanted Bush to cut back on his tax cuts. Of course, the Mr Credit Card President was pissed off.
