There are 9 Democrats currently running in the primaries for the President of United States (Elections in 2004, Results in 2005, if Florida is still voting). Out of the nine many will drop out after the primaries. One of the top runners is John Kerry. He voted for the war against Iraq. On being asked if he had problem supporting the President, he said
bq. “I have no question about the decision I made,” he said. “Even Hans Blix said they weren’t in compliance.”
So he did not make his decision on those 16 words the President said. Nice to know.
Update: And what did Bill Clinton say about Saddam in 1998
bq. Hussein would “go right on and do more to rebuild an arsenal of devastating destruction. And some day, some way, I guarantee you, he’ll use the arsenal.”
