On the eve of the debate, we should all read the words of John F. Kerry as spoken on the floor of the Senate in 1997.

Fax this to the media. Use as talking points in letters to the editor.

Another flip-flop.

According to Mara Liasson on "The Panel" tonight on Special Report, it must be only his last opinion/statement that is counted. Nothing he has lectured us on in the past twenty years is considered, apparently.

Rush played a clip of John Edwards on Feb. 24 saying Iraq was the country that posed the most imminent threat to our country.

KING: Senator Edwards, when discussing the North Korean problem, the president wants to confront the regime, deal with its own missiles program plus its exports. There is not a reasonable military option when it comes to North Korea is there?

EDWARDS: Well, I don't think we're focused on military options right now, John.

I think it was important, in answer to your last question, it was important for the president to go to the region. I think he did help alleviate some of the concerns that people in that area had about this "axis of evil" comment.

But I do think that the more serious question going forward is, what are we going to do? I mean, we have three different countries that, while they all present serious problems for the United States -- they're dictatorships, they're involved in the development and proliferation of weapons of mass destruction -- you know, the most imminent, clear and present threat to our country is not the same from those three countries. I think Iraq is the most serious and imminent threat to our country.

And I think they -- as a result, we have to, as we go forward and as we develop policies about how we're going to deal with each of these countries and what action, if any, we're going to take with respect to them, I think each of them have to be dealt with on their own merits.

And they do, in my judgment, present different threats. And I think Iraq and Saddam Hussein present the most serious and most imminent threat.
