Well, then that settles it. He is to pull our troops out of Iraq as soon as elected. That was the one good question Lehrer asked Kerry-reciting Kerry's words of "how do you ask the last man to die for his country? how do you ask the last man to die for a mistake?". Kerry really didn't have too good an answer but this needs to be hammered by the Bush campaign. According to Kerry, we should bring the troops home because it is a mistake, as Holbrooke is saying it is and Kerry has been saying it is. And why didn't Bush hit Kerry when Kerry brought up how Bush said knowing what he knows now, Iraq was still the right decision. KERRY SAID THE SAME THING A FEW MONTHS BACK yet Bush did nothing to confront Kerry with that.

First the gigolo sends Biden out to say that he really really will support Allawi and now he sends Holbrooke out there to say the war was not a mistake before it was a mistake.

KEEP ON KEEPING ON DUMS.

Wasn't Holbrooke so left wing, and specifically so deferential to international authority, that he was rejected by the Senate for a Clinton administration position?

No. Holbrooke served as our ambassador to Germany and as our ambassador to the UN. He has also served as an Assistant Secertary of State for European and Canadian Affairs, and he was confirmed by the Senate on August 25,1994. Holbrooke was also an FSO and a Peace Corps Director for Morocco.

Ambassador Holbrooke began his career in 1962, immediately after graduating from Brown University, as a Foreign Service Officer. After studying Vietnamese, he was sent to Vietnam and, in the following six years served in a variety of posts related to Vietnam -- first in the Mekong Delta as a provincial representative for the Agency for International Development (AID), and then as staff assistant to Ambassadors Maxwell Taylor and Henry Cabot Lodge. In 1966 he was re- assigned to the White House, working on the Vietnam staff of President Johnson. In 1967-69, he wrote one volume of the Pentagon Papers, served as a special assistant to Under Secretaries of State Nicholas deb. Katzenbach and Elliot Richardson, and simultaneously served as a member of the American Delegation to the Paris Peace Talks on Vietnam, Headed successively by Averell Harriman and Henry Cabot Lodge.

Holbrooke has a very, very unsavory history. He is a fraud and should have his history splashed across the internet.

Does anyone know what Holbrooke muttered to George Stephanopolis during "This Week..." when George was showing the candidates during the debate? In the first clip Holbrooke was in a split screen with Kerry and stated something obviously not intended for the viewers to hear. I'm just curious.

I don't know why people are fooled into believing Kerry is just a waffler, when he is an unreformed left wing antiwar fool.

You are correct. The reason Kerry flip-flops is because he cannot get elected if he tells the voters what he really would do. Time for the Republican-leanning 527s to run some ads showing Kerry as the far leftie that he is.

Does anyone else find it frightening that there are so many people in this country that are buying this crap? This guy Kerry, is the most pathetic candidate that the Dems could have put forth and yet the race appears to be so close.

Perhaps things aren't always as they appear to be and President Bush will win BIG inspite of everything that's been thrown at him.

Holbrooke has got to be the most arrogant person I've seen on TV this year supporting the Dems. He is one piece of work.

I'm sick and tired of hearing that Kerry only agreed to the bill because he thought that work with the UN would have been deeper. If he believed this his name should have been on a few of the amemendments that the Dems tried to put through that failed. Read the history on this.

IMHO the GOP may have made a mistake by terming Kerry a flip flopper without the follow up punch that he's really a far left liberal.

Totally agree. I think the flip flop idea has gotten through, but this needs to be followed up with showing how far left and dangerous Kerry's ideas are for America. The 'Global Test' ad is a start, but they need to pile it on now.
