Exactly!

Yet the lib's who DESPARATELY want Kerry to be the man of their hopes, only HEAR, and latch on to, the parts that works for them.


The thing is, the liberals, in their utopian world, are burying their heads in the sand when it comes to the last part of what kerry said; ". . . doing what you're doing and you can prove to the world that you did it for legitimate reasons."

A country can NEVER prove to every last country that action needs to happen. Even WW2, many nations, including the US, were slow to get involved. Does that mean that England was WRONG for going up against the Nazis? The Nazis hadn't invaded England. Infact, Adolf Hitler was doing everything he could do come to peace terms with Britain .. ... but Winston Churchill would not have it.

Recently we had A unanimous decicision of the world (in the UN) that Iraq (Saddams) behaivior was a legitimate reason for serious consequences. (invasion/overthrow . . the only thing left after a decade of brutal sanctions)

BUT, since some countries didn't want to bear the costs of action, they pulled back at the last minute.

You liberals, who think that "a global test" is the way to go are doing nothing but showing naïvety.

For that; may a 1000 anti-globalization WTO protesters come to ransack your town.

Thanks Lynn. But did I say that Adolf Hitler was doing everything he could do come to peace terms with Winston Churchill ? (no I didn't)

More to the point, Saddam (like Hitler) was making false promises with counties. Some could see thru it. . .some wanted to go-along, in hopes that the murderous promise-breaker would be honorable this time.

We've still got people saying "Kerry says he'd ask permission from other countries." I wonder if there is a filter we can use, where people who are not listening would not show up on our screen. If this were Kerry's position, then you guys would have a valid argument. Or if you pretend that this is what he's saying, then you can also pretend you have a good argument. You won't, but you can pretend.

Yeah supe, and you can pretend to make sense.

kerry said; ". . . doing what you're doing and you can prove to the world that you did it for legitimate reasons."

Start equivocating ...

Or you can pretend that you didn't hear his words and you can continue to pretend that what you interpret his actual words to mean is something that remotely makes sense.

Holy cow, have a run-on sentence.
