Maybe that's why Kerry voted for the Iraq invasion ...

[nmoliver]

and the Patriot Act.

Because he figured that voting against them "wouldn't change the outcome"!

3. I don't know wtf Kerry's doing.

He's certainly reminding me of why I didn't support him in the primaries.

He's a nice man, with a fantastic wife and family, he cleaned Bush's clock during the debates...but dang.

I miss Alby Gore.

[seito]

18. Call me crazy

:crazy: I think there is a direct correlation between how people interpret Kerry's actions and who they supported during the Primaries.

I will say it again. History will judge John Kerry. Now just does not seem like the most appropriate time to be discussing this. The silent revolution has begun. Now is the time for us, the few concerned citizens, to take back this Democracy.

This is NOT about John Kerry.

8. Let's not forget that this U.S. president --

-- spitefully ignored the demonstrations and recommendations of our allies in Europe and millions of their citizens and plunged right into the goddam war without so much as a howdydo.

Let's not forget that this Secretary of State lied through his teeth at the U.N. and that this National Security Council acquiesced in the lie.

Singling Kerry out doesn't address the source of the blame. This war, this assault on a sovereign nation resulting in thousands and thousands of Iraqi dead and wounded, was decided on and planned long before that vote ever reached the floor of the U.S. Senate.

Put it where it goes.

It's Bush's war.

12. Kerry didn't vote for the Iraq war.

He voted for the authority to go to war if need be. This after weighing all options. Which was not done. It's not the same thing as voting for Bush to invade Iraq which was not the vote. He was thinking of the future in regard to a President having this power. His thinking is if he or anyone needs this power it shouldn't be compromised by a vote of "no" for authority to go to war by this vote in the future.

[babylonsister]

13. Kerry was also lied to, as was all of us, regarding

reasons, i.e., WMDs, for going to war.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

15. Please. Don't you think he's smart enough to know what Bush was up to?

I along with millions of others who opposed the war did.....

[Kota]

14. Kerry isn't joining the "formal protest" but he's supporting

everyone and asking others to do so to.

[politicasista]

17. Thanks Kota

I still hoped he could be here to ease the Kerry bashing here, but I guess not.

[seito]

22. The Kerry Bashing is gonna happen

no matter what he does. Thankfully, DU is not representative of the Democratic Party as a whole. I see his letter as very positive. I think that hounding the House and Senate Leaders is a most excellent proposition :evilgrin: I think I will make a sport of it.

I am in for the LONG HARD FIGHT.

[buzzard]

16. He voted to give the President the authority to go to war, which is quite

different than declaring war.

[mirandapriestly]

25. That is so true and it gets spun

to appear as though Kerry was "for" the war in Iraq. Not to mention the climate back then, close to 9-11. If you didn't support *, you were a traitor.

[mirandapriestly]

20. Why do people want Kerry to get bashed and smeared the way Gore did?

That is exactly what would happen. In fact I bet that Roveco wants Kerry to join the protest because then they would have a target. No senators stood up last year with the black caucus and Gore had fought. Some of them are using Kerry's concession as a reason not to contest, but I don't think they would anyway.

[politicasista]

21. They don't like Kerry

I guess. :(

[GRLMGC]

24. I think they've made that pretty clear nt

23. This post accomplishes nothing

but you already know that - it's why you wrote it. Pathetic.
