In you earlier post you wrote:
"Franken contradicted himself a few times, quite obviously, in that he said more troops should have been used to fight the Iraq war, yet he was against the war itself."
This is not a contradiction, but rather two completely separate thoughts. You see, you can be for or against the war and still opine on whether we have enough troops there or not. If you can't hold this concept in your head, perhaps you should leave the political discourse to someone else.
It didn't sound like that in his spoken context.
He said he first supported the war, then when no weapons were found, he was against it, then thought we should send in more troops, but now he is against the war.
I dont see how someone can support sending in more troops and be against the war.
When Lebanon (Marine Barracks) happened, I was furious, I supported what we were doing there, but felt that if we weren't going to send in a division, then we had no business there.
