I pointed out Kerry's flip flopping then you equate Bush to Kerry as
if to suggest that Bush is also a flip flopper.  If you simply say
now that your point was only that Bush had no principles,....okay, I
can take that on as well.

So Bush didn't talk about war with Iraq during his campaign so
therefore he is a liar???  And 9/11 didn't have anything to do with
unexpected changes in foreign policy?!?!  And nothing in the way of
American events could reasonably alter foreign policy???? 

This hardly points to any lack of principles.  If this was the case,
then Roosevelt had no principles when he declared war on Japan
during WWII, JFK had no principles when he stared down the Soviets
during the Cuban missle crisis, Carter had no principles when he
sent Marines into Iran to rescue hostages and Clinton had no
principles when he bombed Kosovo, Sudan and Iraq.  None of these men
campaigned on such issues.  Are they liars as well????

What Bush DID tell people was that he was a strong, competent leader
willing to defend the sovereignty of the United States.  Promise
kept!!!!
