Imus shouls also ask why Kerry won't sign that form to release all his military records. Or how Kerry will get all the tropps out of Iraq in his first term. And why Kerry won't answer hypothetical questions.
Ya know I think Imus is a good interviwer, but he has to stop his filibuster.
Good, he slipped in Kerry's votes against funding weapon systems.
Kerry quotes the Jersey girls. (they endorsed him yesterday)They said it was Osama who knocked down those buildings.s (like he didn't think of that until those women said it first?)
I felt in 98 that Clinton should have the power to attack Saddam, the only way to get the inspectors in was to be tough, but I warned bush as did many people, to tkae the time to build an alliance.....he ignored tht.....he cut off the inspection process and rushed to war. Bush did it in such arushed way he didn't consider the conseuences! It was wrong, it was wrong ( wrong Kerry's favorite word now)
Imus asks what is Kerry's plan to get out. Kerry sys the plan gets more complicated every day because I said months ago you got to lead.. The president didn't ...and now it's more complicated. I would immediately call a meeting of European nations....do more rapid training....other experts have observed we aren't training the Iraqis to establish the security. I have to look and see what I have on Jan 20, a new president with new credibility, who listens to the military , who doesn't fire leaders who disagree, like Sinshckecki, LONGEST SENTENCE IN THE HISTORY OF MAN.....and he still didn't tell Imus what he would do. All he did was say Bush is making it harder and harder to come up with a plan.
Kerry says ask Bush, Ask Bush...he is the president...don't ask me ask him what he plans to do..
Bush ignored the advice of the senate.
Imus pushed gently for Kerry to tell him his plan again, and Kerry said, "I can't tell you what I"m gonna find on the ground on Jan 20."
Kerry won't name people he might appoint..that would be in appropriate, but look at the people who are advising me, he says. Holbrook, Biden, Albright, Peak, Wes Clark, there are a group of 10 or 12, a very solid group of people...Sam Nunn, George Mitchell....
Denies he read UNFIT FOR COMMAND...the right has people who buy it in bulk...it's lies....I don't know if people on my staff have read it.
