Kerry: Opposing Iraq War Is Patriotic

Kerry: Opposing Iraq War Is Patriotic - Yahoo! News (AP)

So why wasn't he making this obvioius statement before we invaded Iraq?

I even voted for Kerry in 2002 (frankly, mostly for lack of a better option), but perhaps Kerry does "waffle" as his opponent suggested during the presidential campaign.

I have found Democrats disappointing these past several years - more reactive than pro-active, and not standing up for what they believe - which is exactly what these days, anyway?

Although Al Gore bloomed after the 2000 "selection" - would that he had been during that 2000 campaign what he has been since... (sigh)

What would America be like now if Al Gore were in his second term, instead of George W. Bush??

I long for somebody like those guys with a lot of initials: FDR, JFK, even LBJ. They stood for something. They got things done. America was better off as a result of their actions (well, except for that Vietnam thing...! And Republican Barry Goldwater wouldn't have gone? He'd probably have dropped a nuclear bomb on North Vietnam. But I digress.)
