KERRY v. LIEBERMAN


(The following is not verbatim, but in essence what they said)
Q: Senator Kerry why were you for the war in Iraq?
A: Sure I voted for the war, that does't mean I was for the war. Bush promised me he'd do it the right way, but he didn't. What I voted for was a war in which Bush used force after the inspectors caught Hussein red-handed and the UN told us to act. Since we didn't do this war the right way, we shouldn't have done it all.
Q: Senator Lieberman?
A: It was a just war. Bush's fibs and incompetence doesn't change that fundamental fact.


If we had had President Kerry, Hussein's sons would still be raping Iraqi brides, Hussein's scientists would still be working on setting up WMD production to start up the moment France suceeded in getting the sanctions removed, and Hussein himself would still be funnelling oil money to terrorists. If we had President Lieberman, we would have a liberated Iraq and would be precious months further along to rebuilding Iraq's economy and developing its democracy.


There is no doubting John Kerry's personal courage. I have serious doubts about his political courage. I have no doubts about Joe Liberman's.
