I've tried twice to type Kerry's words in response to Tim showing that Kerry used the exact same words as the president regarding going to war in Iraq.///I have failed, Freepers. For the first time, I truly cannot figure out Kerry's position on Iraq....I cannot figure it out.

We share your frustration, so obscure...Foggy Outer Bank Time...rem: (elmer fund voice) "Fellingwing are SO IMPORTANT... typical liberal B.S. :|

I disagree. I think his postion is clear:

1) He believes Iraq will be a failure ala Vietnam.
2) Therefore, turn all responsibility over to the U.N. (which of course GUARANTEES failure) so that the collapse of the country can be blamed on the "former" administration.
3) Protecting American soldiers is the main objective...unfortunately this also assures failure.

In a thumbnail, Kerry would turn the entire Iraq mission over to the U.N. and wash his hands of it. For this he would win plaudits from his party and the media: "He's mended international relations!".

Then he would turn his attention to domestic affairs, as if we can have a successful economy under terrorist threat.
