Bush slams Kerry for Allawi swipe

Campaigning in Wisconsin, the president blasted John Kerry for questioning the interim Iraqi leader's credibility.

JANESVILLE, Wisc. - Democrat John Kerry wrongly questioned the credibility of the interim Iraqi leader, and ''you can't lead this country'' while undercutting an ally, President Bush said Friday.

On Thursday, Bush and interim Iraqi prime minister Ayad Allawi expressed hopeful words about the future of Iraq, which Kerry characterized as putting the ''best face'' on a Bush administration policy in Iraq that he said has gone wrong.

''This brave man came to our country to talk about how he's risking his life for a free Iraq, which helps America,'' Bush said at a campaign event in battleground Wisconsin. ``And Senator Kerry held a press conference and questioned Mr. Allawi's credibility. You can't lead this country if your ally in Iraq feels like you question his credibility."

Notice the same author, different words. The "twisting" part is missing...Yahoo or AP changing words?

Yahoo uses the AP headline (I think), the Miami Herald probably changed it to reduce the obvious slant.
