LA Times:
Former chief U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix said Tuesday that until the final days before the war, he and U.S. officials — and perhaps even Saddam Hussein — believed that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction. But rather than taking the time to find out for sure, he said, the momentum of war preparations made the Bush administration deaf to evidence that contradicted their conclusions.
If everyone, even Blix believed they were there, how can Kerry's position be sound? And by the way, you can ignore this and go into your 20 posts distinctions arguments with the others, but in the end the question is what did the average person hear. And the average person hearing what you set forth as Kerry's "position" could only say that Kerry is weasly, and afraid to stand up to what he decided to do. You didn't pick your anti-war candidate, so you have a candidate that is stuck with the war and not able to credibly question it.
As to this Board- I'm Pensked.
