I am usually not in the business of slamming candidates but I just read this excerpt of 60 minutes airing this sunday where Kerry says the following as quoted by CBS:
"[Vietnam] is young people dying for the wrong reasons, because leaders don't do the things that they should to protect them," said Kerry. "Yes I do [see a parallel with Iraq]. This president breached faith with the lesson...we learned in Vietnam. You truly should go to war as a matter of last resort. This president rushed to war without a plan to win the peace," he added.
I think thats such a bigotry, attacking Bush for making wrong decisions on going to war, when he himself supported the resolution to give Bush the power to do so.
And please, dont come up with this silly defense, that he didnt think, Bush would go to war. Bush was pretty clear on what he was gonna do.
I think Kerry is making the same mistake as with his recent NH tv ad featuring kids playing outside and promising that he will not put their lives in danger with an unneccessary war. He did exactly that a year ago.
