1. That is maddening and I responded - likely over responed

( I seriously need to think and edit my thoughts before hitting post - I would bet one compelling post would have been better than my emotional regurgitation of every thing I could think of. )

Doing so - I thought posted the Take Back America 2006 video - Here is the Youtube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7Yrtg4d_Do (Listening Kerry was even better than I remembered - so I guess something good came of this.)

Both Bush and Blair still say the war was the right thing to do - Kerry here absolutely unambiguously said here that it was wrong.

What is also wrong is that he ignores the hundreds of times Kerry said in hundreds of speeches that it was the "wrong war" and not a war of last resort. I grew up Catholic - and though I did not always pay attention in CCD classes, I knew in 2003 when Kerry spoke of it not being a war of last resort was saying it was not a just war.

My mom, who came of age during WWII, understood the same thing - and she still thinks it wrong that any American leader basically called a US war immoral (which if not a just war, it is) while it happened. Yet, apparently that comment repeated hundreds of times was lost on the left.

the same left that immediately believed the completely unprincipled Edwards when he said "I was wrong" - right before lying about his beliefs in 2002.

I hope some here who can recommend will do so as I am certain that my comments will be voted down. What really stinks is that this was written by one of the lead writers here - and one who I think was on conference calls with Kerry.
