http://www.boston.com/news/politics/president/articles/2004/08/10/kerry_says_hed_still_vote_to_authorize_iraq_war/

I voted for the war, then I voted against the funding, then I campaigned on the premise that the war was unecessary and based on lies, then I said I would have voted for it anyway even if I knew there were no WMD stockpiles and the intelligence was faulty.

C'mon Senator... what kind of idiots do you think we are??


Either you aren't reading the articlethat you yourself posted, you misunderstand the article, or you are misinterpreting it on purpose.

The article you quoted above never says Kerry would authorize the war, Kerry never says it, nobody listens anymore, nobody thinks anymore.
Kerry said the president should have the AUTHORITY to go to war. But that the authority was misused by Bush. In other words, he entrusted the president to have all options, and GW Bush fucked up.
From YOUR article:
Quote:

Kerry said ''Yes, I would have voted for the authority. I believe it was the right authority for a president to have." Kerry has said the decision to invade rested with the president.


The article you posted actually CONTRADICTS your theory claim that Kerry would have done the same thing.

CRIMMY- it isn't your fault that your opinions are based on lies and misinformation since you listen to Rush Limbaugh as a news source.

YOU SAID: I voted for the war, then I voted against the funding, then I campaigned on the premise that the war was unecessary and based on lies, then I said I would have voted for it anyway even if I knew there were no WMD stockpiles and the intelligence was faulty.

First lie: he didnt vote for the war. Second lie: he didn't vote against the funding, he voted FOR the bill with a condition that tax cuts be suspended to PAY for it, when that was defeated by republicans http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=108&session=1&vote=00373 he voted against the bill which was both fiscally responsible and remarkable insightful.
Third lie: "Then I would have voted for it". I have explained above why this is not true. Anyone who actually reads the newspaper knows this isn't true.

I am getting exhausted pointing out the flaws in your attacks on Kerry.
You claim above that my arguments were ineffective in the PITS FORUMS, and again I think you are blinded by your own jingoistic vitriol.

I think I made my point quite well in the Pits Forums, which is why maybe you came here to a forum board of younger, less informed folks to practice your propoganda on them.

Kerry is no more a "Flip-Flop" than GW Bush. To claim so is to ignore the nature of politics and to ask your politicians to be inflexible. A stance only the most ignorant people will hold onto.
